The word "news" is from the initials of the words
"North", "East", "West", and "South". It could have been a number of
combinations of those letters, but this order makes the most sense
since it is meant to explain new things. So here is today's news.
Aunt Vicki came over but said that Sis. Pat in Idaho is feeling
worse and she thinks it's from stress of trying to decide what to
eat on her own and my aunt really stayed firm on what she could and
couldn't eat. My aunt came back and now Sis. Pat wants her back
there because she doesn't want to do it on her own. She said she
will make my Squall jacket first, though, and she's going to measure
me tomorrow after church and on Monday we'll go to the leather shop.
My mom was tampering around in Cybersitter again, and then
remembered that my copy of Windows XP is illegal, so my parents
decided to buy it. As if Microsoft needs more money. I had to start
the process of backing up everything of the family's hard drive so I
could install Windows XP on it.
My dad called and said he was out of gas. I got my Wal-Mart stock
check in the mail so I had to go cash it in, plus return the movie,
so I said I'd go bring him some. I filled up the gas can and brought
it to him. He asked me if I wanted some coffee and I said "sure". We
walked to the coffee house. I told him that we were really near the
one where Kristen and Todd like going a lot, but he said he had
coupons for 2 free lattes at this other place, so we went there. I
didn't like it as much as the other place where I went with Todd and
Kristen. I didn't like the coffee or the interior as much. My dad
didn't, either. We walked back to our cars and he asked if I wanted
to follow him around while he took pictures. I half wanted to and
half wanted to go home. I couldn't think of anything better to do at
home, but I just kinda felt like going home. I couldn't make up my
mind, so I remembered that I still had to get Windows XP working by
tomorrow, so I figured I had better go home and finish backing up.
I stopped by Selco and deposited my check, then went to
Hollywood Video and returned the late movie. I went inside and paid
the late fee while I was there. David, who works at Wal-Mart and
used to be a cart-pusher, came in and hadn't heard that I was fired.
I told him about it and he thought it was a stupid reason to fire
me and that he doesn't like Sherene. He asked me if I knew of any
good, funny movies, and a grin spread across my face and I went over
and handed him "Oscar". He looked at it and was skeptical because
he's more into "Jay and Silent Bob" comedy, and not older stuff. I
said to trust me, that it's really good. He said he'd try it. He's
never seen "Princess Mononoke", but he's seen "Akira" and didn't
like it much. He was trying to get me to rent "The Exorcist". He
said he likes horror movies a lot, but he can't even watch it alone,
especially at night. He said he'll have nightmares if he does and
that it's the scariest movie there is. Well, Bro. Don is coming over
tonight, so I couldn't watch a movie anyway. I don't think my parents
would like me watching that movie, lol. As I said, I'm not into
horror, anyway.
I got home and finished backing up all the stuff. My dad handed
me the purchased copy of Windows XP, so I have to install it now.
We're having homemade pizza tonight, and I'm listening to "New York
City" by "They Might Be Giants". Man, I love that band. ^_^ Laters.
