Tuesday night
Aug. 27th, 2002 11:43 pmHow did it get to be 11:21 already?
I've refrained from posting so much in the last couple of days to refrain from complaining about my sore tooth. It's still achy, but gradually getting much better. Yay!
I spent the afternoon at Aunt Rita's.. she's doing fine. Had baked spaghetti for dinner and the parents came over. I was hoping that between the four of us, we could eat it all, but alas, we still have leftovers. I hate leftovers. Oh well. It's sorta sucky, really, when the parents are here for dinner. Mom gets up and starts working on the dishes, so of course I have to get up and help. So if they come over, I have to cook AND do dishes.. we mentioned this to M, who didn't comment one way or another at the suggestion that he could help out instead of me.. :)
I've been working on retouching photos lately. Removing powerlines and telephone poles, dead grass, changing the sky, putting M's head on an Elvis outfit, that sort of thing. It's embarrasing amounts of fun, really. Anyway, point is that I showed the parents an example of one of the more dramatic before/after photo, and they actually seemed somewhat impressed. Typically, showing them the stuff we create is met with "oh. that's nice." or similar, but seeing me remove a telephone pole and replace it with the background trees apparently seemed pretty cool. *giggle*
M sold phones today. This relieved his boss.
I finished reading WoT, and now I'm feeling very let down and somewhat empty and restless. What happens next?! Will Moiraine be back in this book? How does Mat get along with his kidnapped Daughter of the Nine Moons and does he get out of Ebou Dar with three Aes Sedai and some Windfinders? How will it turn out at Tar Valon with Egwene? Will Elayne finally get the throne? !!
On that note, I'm off to read loony theories of how the One Power works. Night!
