This Animal (I've Become)

So, let me tell you about my night.

See, my wisband and I were supposed to be in Keokuk right now and watching one of her friends preform in his local band.

This is more of a life than I normally have.

It's quite an accomplishment to get us to go somewhere with people in a form that may be a crowd. Then again, he's her friend and it is a band. And it sounded like fun. Just because we normally don't really go out doesn't mean we don't ever try to.

But you may have noticed how I said we were supposed. In which case you, if you had a sharp mind, may have realized this meant that we didn't make it.

Why you ask?

Well, we're about half-way there (I guess) when a deer comes out of no where and hits us.

Well, my wisband did all the right things and didn't swerve or any of that jazz, she hadn't slammed on her breaks but started to slow down. Alas, out of the two deer trying to cross the road the second one wanted to hit us. Hit the driver side of the car. The front bit and the door have a nice dint, not to mention the driver side window is no more.

We pull over and look in the road, no dead deer there probably dying the field right beside the road. Okay.

Call her parents and they're coming to get us. Emergency lights on and all we sit at the side of the road and watch the cars go by.

I mention that the road looks pretty when the cars go by - the glass on the road shines so nicely. We then mention that no one has stopped to see if we're alright.

Bit later a guy pulls over and asks us, we send him on his way saying people are coming to help but we feel better about the human race.

Her parents come and her mom takes me home whilst her father drives the poor TARDIS Taurus (what she calls her car) home with my wisband riding with him.

It's good that only the car was hit and it still runs. Just needs a new door. And neither of us were hurt. I don't even think either of us have any cuts from when the glass shattered in on us. Mind, it may have hit her as she caught the brunt of it. But from what I could see in the dark with the lights from the TARDIS Taurus she looked fine.

And I still have no idea if that local band is any good.

Until Next Time

I'm Falling To Pieces.

So, let me tell you about moi day.

Wake up at seven (because up at seven or seventy-thirty is sleeping in for me even if I go to bed around three in the morning) and get on the computer for a bit. At eight Julie (ze housemate) gets out of the bathroom (she woke up after me) and then I try and make it in there right away but she's watching a commentary on Psych and I love Psych commentaries. So, after fifteen minutes I finally go and take a shower.

See, at nine we (Julie and Ashley along with me) plan on going to Iowa City where the nearest bookstore of the Barnes and Noble branch is located (yes, almost two hours away - in January they closed the branch that was only 45 minutes away) and we all have gift cards to B&N (Julie and Ashley 25$ and me 20$).

We're taking Ashley's car because the doors lock whilst in Julie's it doesn't and we don't take mine because that might be a bad idea.

Nine o'clock comes and there no Ashley here. Turns out she slept in and still had to take a shower.

'Round nine-thirty we head out.

I read on the way up and Ashley makes my day because I was tired of listening to her not find any good music on the radio and she put in her Scissor Sisters CD.

We get there and I find a number of books to buy.

I go to check out.

I try and use my gift-card that I got for my birthday (Sept 24 of 09) and try and use it today (April 26 of 10). Let me tell ya something though.

See, previously I tried to pre-order The Mighty Book of Boosh online with the gift card.

The release date got kicked back.

Fine.

The release date got kicked back even more.

Fine.

Re-order.

The order got canceled because of the release date.

Fine.

Re-order.

Get an email that says if you don't respond to this in three days they'll cancel the order.

See that email two days too late.

Fine.

Fuck it.

Try and use the gift-card now and y'know what? No money on it.

Yeah.

So, the nice check-out lady calls up the people who can fix this. Should only take a few minutes.

A few minutes later (yes, it didn't really take that long) the gist is that the book order wasn't actually ever canceled. And never shipped either. It's just been hanging out there for months. And the lady on the phone can apparently manually cancel the order and get the money back on the gift-card.

The problem is that takes about 24 hours.

Okay fine. I'll save my gift-card some more.

And I'll pay all 60$ right now.

Then we go further in the mall.

Hot Topic has moved and is less scary. I get a very awesome tie necklace and a bag that say "Life = Music" for under three dollars. Yay!

Do not buy a CD of That One Guy because Best Buy doesn't have it and FYE is no longer anywhere.

Eat the best sandwich EVER from Chili's.

Go to Pet Co (Where the Pets Go).

Go downtown and see a few awesome stores there.

Come home.

Eat chinese with the family and have a great time.

Basically my day was pretty awesome.

And I was going to go into more detail like I did in the beginning but I lost the motivation to do so. Sorry. *shrugs*

Though, I found these two videos (and if you don't see the whole screen, click on the video and it will load a window of it):

Darn that Banana Peel

So, the other day I dislocated my knee. Luckily, he had righted itself nearly as soon as it went out. Only it hurt like a mother bitch.

Well, today it did it again.
And at first I thought that this one didn't hurt as much. But as time is going on, it's hurting more. Must not have gotten back in all the way or something. I only hope that within the next few days it does so for me. I hate going to the doctor and only go when absolutely necessary.

Until Next Time

My Knee Feels Like It's Gonna Take A Gun & Go Shoppin'

So, gonna say I've been listening to John Barrowman sing 'Angel' for a while now. Repeat is great.

See, I am listening to the song because at work on the telly (I work at a Care Center) as I walked by was this commercial about stopping animal abuse and the song (not sung by him, mind) was on it. Co-worker was like 'That's Sad'. He just kept saying it through the commercial.

Anyway, made me want to listen to it and like usual - it goes on repeat for a bit.

But another thing about work.

Not too long ago I was as happy as usually going into work but sometime during work I got horrifyingly depressed.
"Hey boss?"
"Yes?"
"Can I go home?"
"Not feeling well?"
"Not really. I wanna go home and die."
...Yeah. That conversation would go over well.
I didn't say that. I just continued work. Though I did want to go home and lay down and do nothing for a very long time and let myself wither away.

Later in the afternoon I was feeling better (I was off work - back at home and on the interwebs).
I dislike getting that depressed.
Not fun.

But today I had breakfast with my parents at the Flying J. It was good.

And I decided to draw Misha Collins. Only it will be a not 'normal' style of drawing. I've already got one drawing that style on my deviantART. Not sure when I'm a-gonna start this but yeah.

Also, I've got a few ideas for a second vlog.

Damn, lots of links this post.
Let's do moar!
