I was just on my way back to bed from using the bathroom in the middle of the night (well, 6AM - which is "the middle of the night" for me), when I figured I'd check my email real quick. PC addict? You betcha! Then, I figured I'd write myself a blog as well. I've intended to for the past couple days but keep forgetting about it. Anyway, here's another version of 10/10. Well actually, I'm gonna cut this one down and make it a 5/5 instead because I wanna get back to sleep and I'm not sure I can think of ten each right now. Haven't done one of these for a while! I'll save the good stuff for last. Here we go.

5 things I'm ticked off at:
1. The toilet is real slow lately. It either half flushed or didn't go down at all almost every time I flushed it last night. I kept angeredly yelling at it, but then I decided to try a different approach - I'd flush it and stand there giving it compliments and verbal supportive comments and gesturing madly in the air with circular arm-motions whilst shouting, "YOU CAN DO IT!!", and, "COME ON!!! SWIRL!!! SUCK IT ALL DOWN!!! GOOD VIBES!!!", and THEN it would flush!! So I've concluded that it's simply in need of a bit of moral support. (Or maybe I ate something strange)... I told this revelation of mine to Dad and he just stared at me. Hmm.
2. Early yesterday morning (or was it two mornings ago), a SILVERFISH BOUNCED OFF MY HEAD. This is now old news to some of my friends, but... but... A SILVERFISHBOUNCEDOFF MY HEAD. You can't just let that go.
3. I messed up something on my old PC and now the mouse won't work. Oops. I'm now on the new one again but there's NOTHING in this computer - it's not very homey. I had to order an external drive kit and must wait until that gets here to get all my personal files out of the old PC. This all sounds familiar, doesn't it? I must be eternally cursed with computer problems or somethin'! Oh well. At least I know it still STARTS and all my files are perfectly fine and intact - there's really nothing wrong with it except for the mouse problem...
4. All the excitement and job-starting, etc, that's happened lately has made my period over two weeks late, not to mention all the loss of sleep. BUT GOOD NEWS!!! I slept fifteen hours straight yesterday (after weeks of five or less every night). MAAAAAN did that feel good!! And the hormoney-moodiness has left as well. So I suppose I should be happy then!
5. I have an ungodly amount of email and MySpace comments/messages to catch up on. It makes it daunting, which makes me want to avoid it, which of course only serves to make the problem worse because they don't stop when I stop - they continue to pile up. I just need to get into one of those geared up, "OMG GOTTA RESPOND TO EVERYTHINGNOW" moods, and then we'll be good. I sure hope that happens soon!

5 things I'm stoked about:
1. DAD'S ENGAGED. .......erm, I'm not quite sure I mentioned that on the blog before? Heh. I know I posted it on MySpace, but I have nooo idea exactly who else I've told, so if you're reading this and finding this out for the first time, um... yeah, shocker ain't it? HEEE! Read the previous post about Colleen, and there ya go! :D
2. See number 1. HAPPY.
3. Dad bought me a turntable/radio/CDplayer that's all 1940s style lookin'. He got it half price in a catalog - been wanting one for so long now. I'd bought some records on our recent trip to Texas - now I can finally play 'em!! The very first thing I played on it was The Outlaws' "Ghost Riders in the Sky". I'm excited. Just got it all set up above the TV on top of my little entertainment center in here! After Ghost Riders, I put some Blues Brothers on. Heh.
4. I cleaned the shower last night. I know that kinda sounds...small...but I cleaned it really, REALLY good, so I'm feeling all accomplished 'n' stuff. I even washed the shower curtain and liner!!!... it's so much easier (and less disgusting) to wash those things with bleach in the washing machine. Works like a charm!
5. I CAN NOT WAIT FOR PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END. I mean, I'm SO EXCITED about it. I was never this excited about the second one! Well, I did look forward to it of course, but I wasn't anticipating it as much as I am this one. OMG IT LOOKS SO AWESOME. It's like the whole story has just been holding itself back; it's all building up and coming to a head and it's about to hit this one huge climax with EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER from both the other films involved. The story looks pretty danged good. Can't wait to see Jack!! HOWWWWWWWWWL--HOT. Even Will looked hot in a couple scenes (as opposed to his usual one-expression-only wooden-ness). The new Oriental dude looks cool... of course Davy Jones is awesome... I'm really anticipating what will happen with Norrington... curious what'll happen between Will and Bootstrap Bill... look forward to seeing Keith Richards as Jack's father... and OMG BARBOSSA IS BACK. It probably sounds like I have a crush on Barbossa - I DON'T - I just really, REALLY love him. Y'all couldn't understand. When I look at him, I just see the classic image of a true pirate. The kind you read about in the history books!! He's such an awesome villain, and even with Davy Jones, I really felt like the second movie was lacking a lot without him in it. In fact one of my favorite scenes of the entire film was when he came down the steps at the end. So cool. But anyway, yeah. I guess I'll even grudgingly give props to Elizabeth, HEEE. She does look awesome and pretty kickbutt in the Chinese garb. And I wonder what will become of Governor Swann..? Oh and that Lord Beckett guy? He really needs to die. That even rhymed.
I could go on and on here. But I'll just shut up and tell you to watch the POTC3 trailer here at Yahoo! Movies. Dad thinks it's gonna be the best one yet. I think nothing can compete with the original, but we'll see. It can always be that great but in a different way than the first, if that makes sense.
Ah, I believe I'm finished. Off to bed with me, then!!!

I'm afraid that it must be said ... you need a toilet snake. You'd better use one fast before things get too clogged. They're disgusting but necessary evils, because when it comes to toilets ... MY GOD, WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING!

Toilet snakes are disgusting. I'm excited about POTC. You guys know I didn't get into it like you did, but I enjoyed 'em, and this has CHOW YUN-FAT!
Not sure we need a toilet snake. It's not that it doesn't go down well, it's like the pressure of the flush is weak so it can't push it all down...? Can't figure it out!
YEAH you get the crabby Chow!!!! ;D I'm so SO excited. I hope it's not too overloaded, but it looks so EMU!!
