coming home

ok, on the gf's comp at the moment. i'll be flying back in to Sea-Tac this afternoon. its been a lot of fun, tiring but fun. and i even got about 2000 words finished on the ficathon fic. i'm going to have to spend tonight finishing that up, beta it tomorrow morning and then, voila, on time lets hope. hmmm, coffee, oreos and a granola bar for brunch, yum. *lol* isnt it wonderful how healthy i've been eating? but i'm been swimming a lot and walking a good bit so i figure i'm ok.

we've watched a good number of movies or at least it feels like that: Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Without a Paddle, Underworld, The Matrix: Revolutions (i missed the last 30 minutes of this), The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Big Fish, Secret Window, Parts of The Last Starfighter and parts of Gremlins. i think thats all..i might be forgetting something. and on top of that there was nothing good or interesting (that wasnt PPV) on late at night so we ended up watching the Degrassi marathon that was playing *head desk* omg, i think i've had my fill of "wholesome" teenage fun for...umm, ever.

i got a blister on my big toe though and its all bloody and pussy still and the creepy thing is one of her dogs keeps on trying to lick it *seriously squicked*

i bought a couple things this trip (unlike canada) including: $18 copy of the first five Hitchhiker books, Mort at 20% off, new shiny engravable dog tags, a green stone necklace, a new guitar capo, varius amounts of candy and a really yummy frappechino, oh and the new DMB cd. so, not that much and i probably should have gotten another cd but oh well. i'm in love with this store they have here called Hastings--its got books and magazines like B&N but movies and music (including cheeper used stuff) as well and the music selection is like everything i've ever wanted all in one place and none to very little of the icky pop stuff clogging mainstream Circut City's and Target's. i mean, they had ASH's Music For Elevators listed for crying out loud! (unfortunatly it was out of stock when i was there).

oh! and we went pottery painting yesturday and i made a cute little asian rice bowl. sorry, non sequitor but i'veonly had one cup of coffee and i'm tired. i was in the pool playing volley ball with the gf's younger sister for aout 1 1/2 hrs *yawns*

home!

so, i'm home safe and sound and i never thought i'd say this but its nice to be back as much as people might aggravate me from time to time. i went grocery shopping with my mum almost as soon as i got back and it was fun telling her about my trip and taking cooking. i will never get over the fact that all Britt and Vicki do to make oatmeal is add boiling water, stir and EAT. w/o letting it actually cook. at all. i have lots of fruits and veggies in the fridge now though as well as yummy whole wheat bread and power bars and i am totally ready to get back on my diet. and to read. i really want to read and just blow off the ficathon fic for tonight cause i'm uberly tired and just want to curl up in some nice hot water and soak for a bit while listening to the new DMB cd *lol*

anyway, i'll probably get back to work on the SG: Atlantis icon set for Rising that i started the day before i left. dunno when that'll be done though. i'll probably be at the sis and bro's tomorrow and i'll probably end up mowing their lawn for them because the bro hasnt had time to do it himself since i did it last week.

hope everyone in lj land has had a good week. its going to be a pain to read through everything thats happened since but i cant wait to nevertheless *lol*
