As of 10:08 this morning, a list of everything that has gone wrong and right:

Right:
Garbage was taken out

Wrong:
Woke up to the sound of garbage man and scared myself shitless because I forgot to take the garbage out last night

Can't find my glasses, afraid I may have stepped on them

Atlas has diarrhea, great

My beautiful, $1400 laptop blue-screened and I have no idea what to do

I now am unable to connect to WoW, and I know for a fact that when I will be able to connect, I will be dead, because my computer blue-screened just as I landed in a field of enemies

Oh, and it's raining. Again

Amazing things Twitzy has sent me:
50 Gold
4 different pets
500 Gold
Incredible amounts of confidence
Many hugs and kisses


I love this woman. When I get to 80 (because it WILL happen, damn it!), I am going to save up teh monies and send her at least 1,000 gold more than she has ever sent me.

And in 19 days I will have the Venomhide Ravasaur. I will hopefully have raised my rep with Darkspear to Exalted before then and have a SUPER cute raptor mount.

OH so exciting! I love this game!

So. Life has been what you would call interesting, I suppose.
... More like full of hell. But that's okay. Something very disgusting and absolutely completely embarrassing happened to me the other day. Not the "Oh my God, everyone is going to think I'm so stupid" embarrassing. I actually experienced full-out adult mortification, and I did not handle it well.

Went to the doctor to get it all straightened out. And now I have to schedule a physical for next week. No biggie, I thought. I had physicals all the time in high school.  .... Turns out, in the adult world, physical means absolutely different things. I don't think this is fair. I don't clarify myself as an adult, yet. Just a semi-adult. And semi-adults should not have to deal with these things. Noooo way. 

Ugh, gross.

Anyway, Heather is going to go with me, just as I am going to go with her when she goes next week.

I worked for only three hours yesterday. It was pretty busy, but Heather and I still got to catch up on our gossip after not having any time together for three freaking weeks. Oh, I felt so bad for Matt, who would catch snippets of our very girl-oriented conversation. His face would turn pale and he'd just walk away. And Heather and I would giggle. Teehee.

Went to Bilbo's last night. It wasn't as fun as it usually was. Glen, Haley and Button were there, of course, but as it's always Craig who invites Zach and I into conversations, and as Craig is currently in Boston, Z and I didn't really fit in. Had some very helpful and informative advice from a friend of Haley, though. That was nice.

Something I must do:
Think of conversation topics my co-workers would be interested in, and integrate them into our WoW and other video discussions. The life of a GameStop employee can not just be video games and food!!!

So I was searching for just silly HP fanvids, because I was in that kind of mood.  I found many, of course. But every now and then you come across a jewel in a pile of shiny stones. I have no link to take you directly to the video. In fact, I had to download the video and then download Real Player just to watch it.
The effort was more than worth it. 

The Boy Was a Puppet
by Fabella
Music: "All That I Am" by Rob Thomas

The lyrics are astounding. They fit the sacrificial part of the series perfectly.

http://fanvid-recs.com/category/harry-potter/ (It's the third one down. That takes you to an archive. You have to extract the file and play on Real Player to see the video.)

A snippet of Rob Thomas's amazing lyrics:
"I am the white dove for a soldier
Ever marching as to war
I would give my life to save you
I stand guarding at your door
I give you all that I am"

Alright
Already
We'll all float on



Cleaning the cabin today.
In between tasks, I am working to get 46.
I want to be where Zach is.
So I can make sure that he isn't lying about being okay.


Went to Fred's last night for dinner. That was pretty awesome. Half off appetizers, so we ordered four. Plus a cod dinner. The bruschetta almost killed me it was so delicious.

Alright, already

I love Spanish. I've decided it's my favorite subject.
Going to Barnes and Noble today.
Want to guess at what I'll be getting?
I'll give you a hint: combine my new favorite subject with my favorite book series.

Approximately thirty-two minutes until my Warlock lives again! Tuesdays are unfortunate.

A broken king composing hallelujah.
Hallelujah, hallelujah.


So the Summer II semester starts tomorrow. I'm only taking one class, Spanish I, but that's enough. It's four days a week from 9AM-10:40AM, and that seems like plenty to me. I'm kind of excited, just to be doing something other than work and World of Warcraft. Ugh, I have no life.

The Demon Lexicon came out a few days ago. I didn't really expect it to be such a big hit, but all of a sudden it started popping up everywhere. Having been personally snubbed by the author doesn't really affect my desire to read it at least once. The first chapter was okay. Maybe I'll just check it out first.

Okay, so I didn't get approved for the credit card that would give me 24 months to pay off a new laptop without interest. I was hurt a little by that, but it's fine. (I now have to call the credit agency and dispute the reasons for Equifax's denial, UGH!) I'm going to save every paycheck I get from now to until just before school. Then I'm going to make the 2.5 hour drive to Troy, and order my laptop. I'll put whatever I have saved up, (starting Friday, because that's when I get paid for the first time since my vacation), toward the computer in cash. Everything else will go on the credit card I do have. My father will put my allowance toward my computer until the balance is paid off and I will, more or less, have bought my computer. Excellent, no? 

It's a beautiful computer, and well worth all this waiting. I have a $750 limit on my card, so technically, I could just go buy the computer now and pay the remaining $300 or so in cash, but I want to save up. I'm not having buyer's remorse from the 360; I'm just not in the mood to drop a huge wad of cash after spending so much on a stupid game system.

Anyway, the fall semester starts on September 8th. I'll be paid six times before then. From the crappy-to-nonexistent hours I've been getting (not my boss's fault--corporate doesn't give us any hours), I'll probably be getting $100-$200 every paycheck. 

So what's an exciting thing that's happening? I have a very very very very interesting idea for a fanfiction. I've never actually written smut before. And I'm super nervous to post it, but I must write this. It's dirty and wrong and ... interesting. And wrong. But fun. =P

I've officially leveled my warlock past my druid. I liked playing my druid, seeing as she could change into a kitty and whatnot, but my warlock is way more fun. How sad is this, that I'm actually giving you WoW updates? Oh God, kill me now. 

Sounds like Zach is awake. Here comes the booooy....

We are having hot lesbian sex.
And by "lesbian sex," we mean "tea."

But it's still hot.


Well, that made me crack up for an hour or two.

So I just posted my first fanart. Ever. I've never made one before. I've certainly never posted one before. God help me, it's awful. But it's posted. And I'll live on!

Hoomygawd I'm going to die before someone comments.
