I'm still not dead...

It's true. I haven't posted in a long while. And I don't really have any excuses. I'm easily distracted, is all. But when I got my SiteMeter report and saw that I only had one visit all last week, well, that means I've really been slacking, that no one even bothers to check anymore.

But the question becomes what to post. No one really wants to read me ranting on and on about anime, and, really, other than work and sleep late, that's about all I do. That, and every weekend I find myself free, leave town. ;)

I suppose I can write about that...last weekend I took myself on a little jaunt about Indiana. First, it was just going to be to go to Anderson to visit Jenny and E, and then I decided to swing by Bloomington so Ellie wouldn't have to drive too. (saves on gas, parking, and the environment) Then, my brother became a bigger idiot. He's supposedly majoring in art education, so of course he's taking art classes. However, 3 things added up to me making an extra side jaunt to Terre Haute. 1st, my brother can't drive (and doesn't have a car, even if he could drive). 2nd, he's a shut-in. He hasn't made any friends, let alone the kind that have cars. And 3rd, he's a big procrastinator like me. So Wednesday night when he IMs me, asking if there's a Michaels in Terre Haute and if we carry clay working supplies, I find out that he needs these supplies for class the next morning. He tells me Hobby Lobby sucks (to which I kinda agree), and in his favor I recall that he did attempt to go shopping on Monday (but since it was MLK day, we were pretty sure the buses weren't running in the little podunk town). So, I find out what he needs, purchase them on Thursday and Friday, and drive them up to him, and take him to Walmart for whatever else he needed. Then I drive to Bloomington, pick up Ellie and eat dinner, and head on over to Anderson. All in all, about 8 hours on the road, with another 2 hours spent either in Walmart/Ross's dorm room or eating dinner at a falafel place in Bloomington.
In Anderson, well...I spent all of Saturday in my pjs. We played games, watched RENT, played with the Sims2, read stories, played Halo2, and just hung out. Oh yeah, there was some badly acted pirate porn with almost too much plot in there, too. It was heaps of fun...I miss hanging out with people sometimes, cuz my parents definitely don't count.


Hmm....it's been so long since I last posted, there's bound to be more stuff.....lemme rummage through my camera, hold on....

..........

Well...since I have a tendency to forget and leave my camera at home whenever I go somewhere (why does typing "camera" make me think of some giant mutated monster attacking Tokyo?), all I have is the 2 pics from my Hanover-reunion Xmas get-together that I took before my camera battery died (perhaps defeated by Godzilla??) Unfortunately, Andy was the one behind my camera for the "group shot", so I don't actually have one of him this year. Oh well. Enjoy a bit of my Christmas, Perkins-style.






Well, laters!
