The parents came home today. Woke me up at 11:30 when they got in, which wouldn’t be so bad, if I didn’t go to sleep at 7 or so. I had two tomato sandwiches, since my dad picked the tomatoes from the garden when he got back. They were so good. My mom said they had fun and they’re probably going camping again next month. I told her I had to keep bugging her to go and now they’re going again.

“I can’t believe it’s July already”
That one is for Corey.

I suppose I set a new record, even if it was unintentional. My parents went camping Monday afternoon. It’s been so nice and peaceful. Yesterday, I did nothing. Today, I finally watched my movies from Netflix. Daybreakers and Observe and Report. Daybreakers was pretty good. Observe was crappy. I think it was supposed to be a darker comedy, but I still only laughed once or twice. I had a turkey sandwich after that. After I ate, I took Abby out. She keeps looking around for my parents. The other day, she kept looking in the living room for them. Right now, she’s camped out by the door in the kitchen. I decided to wash the dishes, then I took a shower. It’s only 1 pm and I’ve already accomplished more in one day than I have in the last six months. Re-read that just to get a taste of how sad it is. I’m not sure when they’re going to be home. I texted my dad yesterday, but his only replies were asking if anyone called. The other day, I had an absolutely delicious meal of chicken and noodles with alfredo sauce and garlic bread. I was in such a good mood after that.

I still have yet to get a new computer. I can’t remember if I’ve mentioned it yet, but this is the current one I’m looking at. Everything looks good except for it being a Gateway. I’m not sure how good or bad they are. The few people I’ve showed it to had responses such as this, “Eww Gateway”, “It looks good, but do you need one that fast?” and “I don’t know if I’d spend that much on one.” And now you see why I’m so indecisive.

I told my dad about how you can watch Netflix movies on the Wii, he seemed interested, but thought you had to pay extra to do that. When I told him you didn’t, he said he was going to take the Wii next door to watch them. I ordered the Wii Netflix disc for him, since I didn’t already have it. At least the Wii will get some type of use.

Forgot to mention that I pre-ordered the Collectors Edition of LittleBigPlanet 2 the other day. So excited for it!

I woke up around 12 pm, it was storming outside. I look over and Abby is sitting next to the bed, shaking and looking over at me. I drifted in and out of sleep, when I heard my mom come over and catch Abby in the living room. She thought I was sleeping, so she yelled at her quietly to get out of here. After she left, Abby came back in. She told me about it later and I told her she was scared. She asked me if she does that all the time when it storms, I wanted to say yes to see what she would say, but I didn’t want her yelling at Abby and coming over here every time it storms.

I had my dad shave my head last night. It looks pretty good. Sometimes he does it and you can tell all the spots he missed. After he finished, I wanted to wash the loose hair off my head, but I thought it was pointless to go shower, since I already went earlier. So I leaned over and stuck my head in the bathtub. Smart idea in theory, but I ended up getting water in my ear and it’s been muffled ever since.

I got really tired around 12:30 and fell asleep until 2. Great way to fuck up my sleep. My mom has been up for a half hour. It’s 5:30 am. My parents always ask me if I talk to any of my friends from school anymore. It’s funny when they ask me why I don’t. I don’t feel like explaining the reasons to them, it only opens the door to more questions. I’ve been thinking about getting the new Transformers game, War Of Cybertron. It looks pretty good.

I actually woke up early today, like I wanted. Mostly because I set my alarm, but it still counts. I took a shower and wanted to go walk Abby. No one ever walks her, so I figured we could both use the exercise. I feel I should mention that I’m not a strong person, my balance is horrible and Abby is pretty much the same size as me. Even so, she listens to me in the house, so I figured I wouldn’t have a problem outside. The leash was one of those that you click and more rope can come out, click again and it stops.

I should have known it was a bad idea when I’m trying to get out of the porch and Abby nearly pulls me over. I grabbed on to the door to stay upright. She was sniffing around, excited to smell everything. I take her up the tiny hill and she almost pulled me over it. I took her behind the house and we walked around there for a minute, then we went back down the hill, this time she almost pulled me down it. She kept choking herself because she was pulling too hard so I wanted to let out a little more rope. As I do that, she bolts down the sidewalk. The leash ran out of rope and I went toppling over as she tried going down the steps in to the drive way. I grab the rope and pull her back. She comes over to me and sits down next to me on the ground like nothing happened. I didn’t know whether to be mad at her for pulling me over or mad at myself for my own stupidity. After that, we went inside. All of that was only about five minutes, but now she’s tired, I’m tired and we barely did anything.

What have I been up to? Well, today, Abby kept barking nonstop. I kept telling her to stop barking, but she wouldn’t stop. I rolled over and looked at the clock and it was 2:30. Consider her my own personal alarm clock. My parents weren’t home, so I figured she needed to go out. I had some stuffing and turkey thing for dinner. One of those meals where you fill it with water and heat it up. It wasn’t very good at all. Later, I had some turkey sandwiches and a granola bar.

A few days ago, our neighbor wanted to visit from Ohio, so my parents had to go get him. It’s a lovely 4 hour drive. Today, they were taking him back, which is why they weren’t home. The other day, my dad made steak, it was delicious. Yesterday, we had cheeseburgers.

I’ve been playing a lot of Maple Story, they have a new leveling event, so I’ve been doing that. I went on Wonderking’s site a day ago and saw they also have a new leveling event, so I finished that today. One less thing to worry about.

Tomorrow, I’m hoping to wake up early. I’m sick of sleeping the day away. Hoping it’s nice outside.

I’ve been listening to Pandora radio a lot recently. I’m sick of my current music, so it’s a nice change of pace. However, I’ve already reached my 40 hour limit for the month. So yet another one of my impulse buys had me upgrading to continue listening to it. It’s $36/year, which isn’t too bad if you think about the monthly cost and not the yearly. You get higher quality music, unlimited skips and the option to listen to it from your desktop. Now I have to make the most out of it, so I don’t feel like I wasted my money.

I watched Avatar the other day and loved it. Might give it a re-watch. There’s so many visual things, it’s hard to take them all in, as lame as that sounds. I got X-Men, the old cartoon series, volume 1, I watched that the other day. I got volume 2 today. Forgot how good it was. I love the opening theme and the voice actors are great.

I had some cake earlier. As always, excellent.

Fuck, I’m lazy. I just don’t care anymore. I have no reason to post. I think about posting daily, but it’s not like anything is different if I don’t. I have a semi normalized sleep schedule now. Well, I did. Upon this post, it will go back to shit, but for awhile, I was waking up at 8 or 9 am, with no naps during the day and going to sleep at 11 or 12. I can’t say if that was good or bad, since as soon as I went to sleep, everyone would IM me. I haven’t talked to Corey much lately. It’s weird not to talk to him considering we would talk daily. Thinking about it, I barely talk to anyone anymore.

I got Red Dead Redemption and played it for an hour or two. I just haven’t been in a big gaming mood lately. Saturday, I went over my aunt and uncles for a cook out. All month long, my mom begged me to go. So I went. I spent most of the time sitting at the table by myself. My aunt’s nieces and kids were there. I met one of them awhile ago, we played Atari, I remember that being fun, but I’ve changed a lot since then, definitely not for the better. Now, the only words I said were hi and bye, when they left. Wonderful. We got Subway today, that was pretty good.

Earlier, I was yelling at something on Skype and Abby came in here and stuck her head on my arm and kept looking up at me. Little moments like that make me happy. I’ve been trying to get my parents to go camping. Last year, they told me they definitely would. This year, they told me they’re thinking of selling the camper. I’m sure it makes me a bad person that I want them out of the house so bad, it’s not like anyone didn’t already know that, but having the house to myself is great. It’s already June, I don’t know what they’re waiting on. They finally put the AC in the window. So much nicer in here.

This morning I was in an antisocial mood, that’s nothing new, but around 5 am, I got a burst of energy and a desire to do something. I kept looking at my old design thinking how sick of it I was, but finding a new theme I’m satisfied with is a difficult task in itself. I narrowed it down to two choices and after sending a few people the different links I finally decided on the one I’m using now. The hard part was coming up with a banner. I had no general idea for what I wanted to do. There’s not really anything I’m “in to” right now that I could base it off of. One of my favorite banners I ever made was the Maple Story one, I had a lot of fun making that one, but with this, I just didn’t know what I wanted to do. I started by throwing some random brushes on the picture and seeing how that worked. I wasn’t all that satisfied with it, but I kept trying. I downloaded so many brushes and I wasn’t really happy with any of them. At one point, I got the idea to do a picture with a streetlight on a dark corner, but I couldn’t find the type of picture I had in mind. Next, I tried to do a forest scene, but that didn’t look right either. I went back to the abstract/vector brushes and tried to put something together. After at least an hour or two of that, I found something I was somewhat happy with. However, upon uploading it, I realized the colors I picked out for the banner didn’t match the theme at all. I tried changing the background color and moved some things around and re-uploaded it and I think it all came together. This is definitely a lot better than the previous design.
