Yesterday I asked Nick if the plans to see "Anger
Management" when it came to the $1.50 theater was still on, and he
said "definitely". But he said that he had plans on Wednesday with
Carly to see a movie. I rolled my eyes and he smiled. I told him I
figured he had plans with Carly since I heard her ask him what he
wanted to do this week and I was going to ask if he had plans with
he and when so I would know when he was free. I asked what movie
they were seeing and he said, "Pirates of the Caribbean". I was
like, "Awwww, I want to see that! I'd ask to come along, but I don't
think Carly would like that. She seems to like to do things
one-on-one." Of course, I didn't mention that neither of us would
want to go with each other. I'm not going to give her something to
prove more fault in me with. So anyway, he gave me his number and
I'll have to call him.
On a side note, "Misfits" wasn't appealing to me because they
sound like a '50s group trying to sound like hard rock. Maybe it's
just their first CD that sounds like that. I'm listening to Korn
right now, though, which is just awesome. I haven't heard one song of
theirs that I don't love listening to.
I've had to do a lot of mowing and weed-eating lately since we're
getting our shaggy yard looking as neat as we can for the yard sale
we're planning to have. The portion of our yard where we used to
have our 1/4-acre garden is now full of very tough and tall weeds. I had to
use the rider mower to mow it and the stupid pieces of weeds kept
being blown into my face by the wind, not to mention the very bumpy
and uneven terrain that almost proved too much for our wimpy mower.
So after I got it all done and the blades had stopped from the
blackberry vines being wrapped around them, I had to go pick Amy up
from work and also get a new belt for the mower. I got Amy and she
wanted me to drop her co-worker/friend/crush off at his house, too.
It's funny, I used the same formula with hers and his name that I
would use with mine and the person I had a crush on to make my
passwords. Hers and his turned out to be "Leglz." Amy likes it
because it's almost "Legolas." My mom gave me wrong directions to
the John Deere place and I had to call her on the cell phone and she
called them up and gave me the correct directions. I got the belt
and dropped Brent off at work and then took Amy home. Soon
afterward, my mom showed me 2 movies "Tarzan" and "How to Lose a Guy
in 10 Days" and said she forgot to give them to me. She wanted me to
return them. Ugh, no more driving. I saw the latter of the 2 the
night before last night. It was good, but reminded me of my usual
problems.
After that, we had dinner and my dad wanted me to take the
weed-eater and finish what the mower failed to do. I got about 1/3
of the rest done and the nylon cords got pulled out and my dad
didn't feel like putting new ones in so I got out of that.
A good thing, though, is that we... got... cable internet today!
It's so cool! Everything loads fast! I downloaded 3 AMVs in like 5
minutes! It was crazy. I'm going to have fun with this. The only
problem is, people still want to use the computer just as much. I'm
in the process of backing up all our stuff that can't be replaced
once deleted and will re-partition the hard drive and install
Windows XP, which Randy let me borrow. I might even split the primary
master into 2 partitions so I can have an OS that is un-corrupted by
other users and their limited knowledge who unknowingly install
things or change things of which they know not the nature. It will
force me to have to reboot to the other partition whenever I get on
or off the computer, which will get annoying, but it's worth it. I'll
probably even have the family partition have the Windows 98 SE
version just so my dad won't make a big deal about using something
that is illegal since it's borrowed.
