  *WHEW!* Just got done cleaning & vacuuming the house. That only took 2 hours longer than it should have. >_<'
Remember how I said we got a new, working vacuum to replace that old one that's circa '62? Well, it turns out that my mom has this delusion that the old one actually works better, meaning I have to use the old one every 4th week. Since that piece of crap is one of those double-apparatus models (meaning you hold the head in your hands, and it connects via tube to its tank which rides around on the floor on wheels) and it's so busted that the top of the tank isn't secured to the bottom, it naturally spilt icky, stinky water everywhere. And guess who had to wipe it up: *points to self*
So, now my sister's room smells like crap (thank the good Lord it wasn't my room) and it took 3 times as long as it should have. >_<' I hate that stupid vacuum!!!

But, even though it's already 8:30 PM, I'm officially done & showered-off, so I'm nice and squeaky-clean! ^_^

My parents are both stressed to the point of cardiac-arrest, though, from chores and having to deal with my brother & sister. -_-'
My brother keeps saying that my sister is lying about him to mom & dad to get him in trouble. Well, I sure as Hell hope she is. You know why? Because my brother has been doing that to me FOR YEARS! (He's still doing it, as a matter of fact!!!) That little bitch needs a taste of his own medicine. He needs to be put through the same Hell he put me through.

Allrightie, enough about me, on to the fun stuff!

Unfortunately, no manga-run with Josh the weekend (*hysteric ranting & cursing*), but I'll probably go on a solo-run tomorrow.
I've been trying to call Josh and ask him how the Yngwie concert last night was, but he's not answering. Speaking of Yngwie's concert, I have some bad-news: Josh won't have any photos for you guys to see. -_-' Apparently, they didn't allow any recording equipment in the stadium (damn boot-legers gotta' ruin it for us all!). Oh well, at least well have Josh's stories. ^_^

*starts head-banging to "Riot In The Dungeon"*

Oooh! And guess what my mom found Tuesday night....
Two baby birds! ^o^
They're big enough to still learn to fly & survive on their own, so we wanted to save them before our neighbor's cat got them. They're just learning to fly at this point, but not quite ready yet.
Hee hee, they're really cute. I got to hold them while my mom fed them mushy cat-food and store-bought worms with a set of tweezers (it was tough because I had to hold tight enough to keep them from getting loose and flopping away, but loose enough as not to crush them).
They're currently hopping around, happy as clams, in my late hamster's cage out on the back-porch.
I may need to take a photo of em' for you all. =^_^=

Sorry, my dad got home with dinner. He brought pizza! Mmmmm, pizza. *drool*

Lindsey-chan's question of the day today was about our favorite (non-anime) TV show.
Hers was Mystery Science Theater 3000, proving once again that Lindsey-chan is one of the coolest people on the planet. ^_^ God bless that woman.....
Anyway, MST3K is definitely one of my favorite shows as well. However, it does vie with another of the few television programs I actually like: Mythbusters!
Mythbusters is one of the few shows out there that's actually gotten better as it progressed. You also actually learn something from watching it. I've been a science-boy ever since I was a little kid (did anybody else here watch Bill Nye; The Science Guy when they were young?), and Lord knows I love explosions, and I have a big taste in Urban Legends. It's like Mythbusters was made for me! ^.^

In honor of this jewel of a show, here's a very well-done Mythbusters mini-comic by humon (in anime-style, no less!):


Not only is this entertaining for Mythbusters veterans like myself, but it also serves as an analogy for the basic plot of an episode and how Adam & Jamie interact. ^_^

Good night, everyone! I'll see you all tomorrow!
