Post-Christmas thoughts

Wednesday, December 27, 2006 at 11:30 am (Happenings in KD's life)

  • I’m listening to: Beyonce. She just hit a crazy high note; it was cool.
  • Current mood: Happiful
  • Important dates: Tomorrow, the 28th, is Amber’s 20th birthday! Scary…

Hellooooooo people! It’s been exactly 2 weeks since I last updated! And guess what? I’m no longer sick! I shouldn’t be using exclamation marks so liberally when people are starving in China. Yes, that quote is from The Dark Lord’s Blog. You should check it out if you’re a Harry Potter fan; it’s pretty great.

Speaking of Harry, did you know the name of the 7th book has officially been announced?! I won’t say it here in case some of y’all want to find it on J.K. Rowling’s site, but it fills me with great joy. Unfortunately, there is not a release date for the book yet.

Anyway, I’m home for the holidays, and I’m having quite a splendid time. I got great Christmas gifts, including some lotion, clothes, money, new memory for my computer, and some radio shows from J, who actually delivered them in person! That was cool. Oh, and Amber made me a blanket! I wasn’t expecting that, but I love it. It’s really soft and fuzzy and fabulous.

In more depressing news (for me, at least), I haven’t yet seen Dreamgirls because it’s not in any of the theaters around here, which reeeeally makes me mad. I spent like half an hour looking up theaters on the internet and calling numbers last night, but I was finally forced to the unhappy conclusion that theaters around here suck and I should just give up. However, the theater that’s on the same block as my SISTA apartment has it, so I’ll have to wait until January when I go back. I can probably stand that if I grit my teeth and fight the unendurable frustration. OK… exaggeration. And I guess I can still listen to the soundtrack, which is AWESOMISTIC!!!!

Hmmmm, what else has happened lately? Oh, we got to babysit Amber’s friend’s puppy for a couple of days! His name was Mavric, he was 4 months old, and he was crazy! He didn’t like being outside on a leash while Mom and I were in the house, so he chewed through his collar and leash! And instead of making a grand escape, he decided to follow my mom into the garage. She scolded him a little, then let him in the house, where he proceeded to run in circles chasing his tail. When his master came to get him, he was curled up beside the couch, completely exhausted with the morning’s events. I love puppies.

Well, I suppose I should take a shower and actually do stuff today. Dad wants to take me on a motorcycle ride, which should be fun. I’ll write sometime sooner than 2 weeks from now! Maybe. Parting thought: I HAVE A NEW FUZZY SWEATER!!!!!

I. Hate. Being. Sick!

Wednesday, December 13, 2006 at 8:24 am (Happenings in KD's life)

  • I’m listening to: Instrumental church hymns. Very comforting.
  • Current mood: Blaaaaaaah
  • Important dates: Tomorrow, December 14, I’ll hopefully feel better.

Well hello. I really hate being sick, but here I am again in bed. My throat feels like it’s going to explode, and I could barely get my breakfast down. Grrrr!

In happier news, Beyoncé is totally number 1 on all the charts with her new song “Irreplaceable!”

Oh, and I went on a travel route yesterday and located a house with very few difficulties! And the day before, I got to pet a beagle on my way to another travel destination! That brought back lots of memories…

That’s really all I’ve got. I know I should have loads to talk about since I haven’t updated in a while, but it’s hard to concentrate when I’m sick. I’ll really reeeeally try to write more later. Parting thought: KAITLIN, I HAVEN’T FORGOTTEN YOUR LIMERICK! IT’S COMING!
