Christmas Comes Early

I threw open the door and looked around. I settled my sights on the couch, where a formidably sized box had been placed. I was a bit miffed by the fact that the box was slightly smooshed and mashed (thanks a lot, UPS man), but I was ecstatic that it had finally arrived. I quickly grabbed it and attempted to open it, but the tape held strong. I went to get the box opener, but unable to find it, I settled on the letter opener. With a vicious gleam in my eyes, I went to open the box.

I cut through the tape in the middle, but was met with a problem when trying to cut the tape on the ends, because that was where the box was most smooshed. Unwilling to let this slow me down in my quest, I started jabbing at the corners, knowing that a letter opener would not damage the box's contents. I finally managed to jab my way through the tape, and I frantically yanked the box open. And there it was . . . .

Later . . .

Me: Look, I got my coat! =D
Ryan: So now you're like the Doctor?
Me: . . . Sort of. You wanna touch it?
Ryan: *slowly reaches out to poke my sleeve* Awesome . . .

Sick Day (again!!)

Again? Yes! :c I don't know what's up with me, but I've had this nasty cough for four days or so, and this morning I woke up and could barely speak. My throat is killing me, so whenever I cough, it hurts like none other. It's just annoying, because I'm completely fine aside from throat issues.

Now, here is my sick day schedule:

~Eat breakfast
~Watch Doctor Who
~Play on the computer and post random things
~Get a cough drop
~Empty the dish washer
~More computer
~More Doctor Who
~Another cough drop
~Lunch
~Doctor Who
~Maybe some other television show
~Computer
~Cough drop
~Snack
~Cough drop
~Doctor Who

It won't be exactly in that order, but you can understand. I wish I could sing along to the radio. :|

Well, Well, Well.

A week from tomorrow, I shall be getting married. For pretend. To a pretend person. So don't be alarmed, as I know you might've been while reading the first sentence of this post.

Boo!

I guess we're haunted. I suppose you've all experienced around this time of year, people who bring treats to your door in secret, and you must give treats to two other families. They leave a little note that you can stick on your door or in your window, so that you don't get ghosted again. Well, we got ghosted and put the sign in our window, then when the sign mysteriously disappeared, we got ghosted again. We put the sign on our door, but it blew off, so we've been ghosted again. Amusing.

Sick Day

I'm not actually that sick, but feel 'meh' enough to stay home from school. So I'm listening to songs from Disney's version of Rodger and Hammerstein's Cinderella, which I've found out will be the school's musical this year. I found out about it a few weeks ago, but auditions are not until December. Do you know how annoying that is?! Anyways, it gives me enough time to learn the songs thoroughly, which is good, because I'll need to expend all my energy on learning the dances. Look at me rambling on about this, and not even sure if I'll get a part. I guess I'm just overly confident.

New Neighbor

We've got a new neighbor. A hobo moved into one of the storage compartments by our house. .________.

How to Fix Your Printer

If you just put new ink in your printer, and your printer spews out one of those ugly test sheets, you know it works fine. Then you go to print off something that actually matters, and your printer does: nothing. It's not broken, it's just being a cussy little chunk of technology that is intent on making your life harder.

To fix it: Cancel your print job, then click print again. This time, gently stroke your printer and whisper words of encouragement. It should work just fine.
