Merry Christmas

zune1.jpgOnce again, I’ve received more than I deserved. I am currently enjoying ‘s Narnia vid “Brother, Let Go” on my incredibly cool Zune, color black. Heh.

As usual, my mom and dad went all out on the gifts and bought not only the Zune, but several accessories to go with it. In about 20 minutes, I had nearly all of my favorite vids loaded. The quality is actually much better than I had heard it would be. I have noticed that my vids made larger than standard look better, but it’s because the screen is actually a little bigger than 320×240. All the fanvids I’ve put on it (about 50 so far) look and sound terrific. I’ve even decided to carry a purse so I can tote my Zune around with me at all times. I’m love it.

In addition to the Zune and accessories, I got the Wizardology book to match my Egyptology and Dragonology books, an encyclopedia of Ancient Egypt, Borders gift card, Wal-Mart gift card, Lowe’s gift card, sweater, several pairs of argyle socks *geeks out*, a banana leaf platter, caramel-pear candle, indoor/outdoor thermometer, fleece pullover in school colors, cash, candy, extra lint roller, a pail of Smore’s goodies, and a truly indescribable gift from my dad. Mom said I’d give it away as soon as I saw it, but how I could I ever abandon my new baby gorilla?!? It’s going to scare the hell out of Hobbit and Istar, but it really is a cute little thing. We’re still LOL about it. I know I’ve left out some gifts, but I’ll update to include them.

Merry Christmas, everyone, and thanks for being the great friends you are!

Where Was I

I don’t even remember last time I posted or what I said. I’m still too sick to even go back and read it. I’ve been having just a bit of a chest cold, but it’s got me feeling tired and blah. Mom insisted on bringing me some cough medicine (even though I wasn’t coughing) with about 42 different narcotics in it. Well, probably none, but it felt like it. She also brought me two cubes of Diet Mtn. Dew, some tiramisu (YUMMM), cube steak, and $50. What an assortment, eh? That’s my mom, though–covering all the bases :elf:

SGA was awesome again, although Rodney haters won’t see it that way. Torchwood was… Um, Torchwood was…Dang, I can’t remember what it was about. Oh, I remember, it was actually one of my favorite eps so far. Yes, and I can’t remember it quickly. Sums up that show, huh?

zune1.jpgI don’t care what the haters say. I’m getting me one of them thar Zunes. It’s the ultimate in narcissistic fun. I can load nearly all of my vids on it and watch them ALL.THE.TIME. Somehow, I think vids by , , , and will find themselves on there as well, and enjoy more time on the playlist than my own! Hee!

Here was my conversation with Mom last night:

Me: Hey, did you hear about Zune?

Mom: Um, yes. How could I not?

Me: Yeah, I’m going to get one soon, but not just yet. I’m going to get a Zune, color, black, pretty soon though.

Mom: That sounds good.

Me: Yeah, those Zune, color, black, players seem really nice. I’d like to have one someday.

Mom: something about work

Me: Yeah, those Zune, color, black, players are cool.

Mom: Shut up, already. I get it.

HEE!

House, Work

Relief!

After turning in three assignments in two days, I feel like a new woman. Only one assignment in each class remains, and I have a couple of weeks to complete them. Sooo, I’m hoping to vid something in the next week or so, but as usual, I have no song choice. So basically, I’m just a wannabe vidder. Heh.

The new water heater seems to be working out just fine, and OMG do I need to send my mom to a spa or something. Without her, I wouldn’t have had hot water for days, and I continue to marvel at her ability to do literally ANYTHING. Thanks, Mom!
