You're so cold keep your hand in mine.
It was a long day, I'll tell you that much. It all started seemingly innocent with an alarm going off and a muffled "fuck" from me.

It progressed into pandemonium, I assure you.

First we went out to eat at a buffet. It was a great meal, no complaints. Weird thing happened though- one time when I came back from getting my main course, the chair I had been sitting in had disappeared.

I mean it. It was just gone. Neither of my parents had even noticed that it had gone missing. A quick inspection of the area found it to be currently inhabited by a small child at a table nearby- no biggy, someone took my chair. I scooted the remaining chair over but continued to wonder why my parents hadn't of noticed. Senile, I suppose. ;D

So, then we did some errands. Oh, fantastic fun that- it was not really that amusing until we went to Sam's Club. In this maze of bulk items for sale, I found myself to be getting alot of stares- either due to my hair or the shirt I was wearing.

Ah, yes. Today's shirt- the ever-filled with innuendo "I'm big, you're small- have a nice day" shirt.

One young man ever muttered what my shirt said on it as he read it. I looked at him and said "Damn straight"- I was bigger than he was, he was sort of small and I did wish him the fondest of days.


Nothing really great happened at Sam's. I was my insane self- I rode the basket around. You know, where you get up on that bar beneath the child's seat and push it like a scooter. I road it around the parking lot, the store, various places- it was amusing. You should try it- you can pick up a pretty good speed with it.

Once home, I unloaded the shit and convinced my mother to take me to the mall so I could spend some cash I had acquired over a couple of months. Surprisingly enough, she offered the keys to the truck to me- my previously scared shitless mom wanted me to drive.

Driving to and from the mall I didn't do too bad- the only thing I seem to do alot is take turns at very high speeds. Speeds ranging from say, 15-25 mph. Freaked my mom out a bit, but it was ok- nothing damaged, truck didn't roll over. <_<

Once at the mall I split with my mom and headed to Electronic's Boutique. I surfed around for a good bit [I don't like to rush my selections] and picked out Metroid Prime + Kingdom Hearts, both with a pricetag of 17.99 on them. Good deal, eh?

Well, the guy hounded me about the preowned discount card and I gave in. What the hell? Maybe the guy would shut the fuck up about it everytime I came in. I saved, they ended up costing like 16.49 or something. Woo.

The main event was at FYE- I wanted a new metal CD so that I can be deaf by the time I'm 32. I arrived to see there were like 15-25 people congregated at the front of the store- I glanced into the window and saw "Meet Amanda Perez Today"- ah, shit.

The crowd was busy babbling to each other about how great it was to be here- I seemed to be the only person who wished to engage in capitalism at this place. I let out a pretty loud "Get out of my way"- that woke them up. At first they turned to see who said that- then they looked up and let me through.

Annoying crowds.

Inside wasn't that much better. There were people standing around, wanting to see miss Perez, whoever the hell she is [some R&B artist apparently].

I listened to a few of my CDs but it was drowned out by the load music by her they were playing- it was typical poppy, R&B sound and quite annoying.

Eh. I met her in passing. She seemed like a nice person, I shook her hand. Not my type of music though. So, to any Amanda Perez fans- uh, sorry? lol. Your favorite singer is nice? etc.

Wandered around for a bit till it was time to meet my mom at our usual meeting place.

Drove home, had supper. The nighttime internet chats were interesting. Have fun talking to a few people, hope some people's legs aren't acting up anymore. Helped a few people, was glad to do so.

But now, at 6 AM, I am truly tired. Mentally, physically, emotionally. I am tired. I have been tired, it is evident in my conversations with people past around 4 AM- I was getting tired.

So, I'm going to just rest.

Adios.
