   Help me think I'm somebody else...

"Closer" by Nine Inch Nails Well, I am feeling a bit better now that it's night time. The fact that I made it to night I guess is a good sign. Thanks for all your well wishes minna, I really appreciate it! *hugs everyone* You're the best! I should warn you though, Gainesville makes me sick. Litterally. There's something here that affects my allergies to the point that I can't help but get colds and sinus infections in the winter so I'll probably be like this off and on for a while. When I was in high school it lasted Oct.-Mar. every year! I'm looking forward to sleeping on Thursday morning though when the 4th grade goes on a field trip, yay for no school for me! Also, next week we only have 3 days b/c of Veteran's Day and UF homecoming. Yeah, we're spoiled down here, we love our Gators so we get out of school and have a parade! Not talking about the election...everyone else is...um...what else...oh thanks for all your comments on my Hikaru AMV. It's still in the intro if you haven't watched it and want to. Sorry again for not writing (I know, I'm a bad fanfic writer making you wait like this!) but I have decided what's going to happen in chapter 42 so that's a good start, right? Feels like there was something else to talk about but I can't remember what...so, since I am running low on CLAMP mangas today's pics are Duo-kun, b/c he makes me feel better when I'm sick like this! *huggles Duo* Ahhh...

   Sick...

Sorry for the lack of a proper post at the proper time today folks. I am sick, like the subject says, much more so than last week. It came upon me kinda suddenly but the cold is a lot worse than before. I actually fell asleep at 10pm last night!! I never go to sleep without posting at midnight! Well, there's a first for everything...anyway, I'm off to babysitting so here's some DNAngel pics for your viewing pleasure! I watched episode 4 before I passed out from exhaustion and not being able to breathe last night.

   I wanted you to know, that I love the way you laugh...

"Broken" by Seether Well, right now I feel like blah...I had some things I wanted to post about...let me try and think of them. OK, well I might not have to do 3 more weeks of Italian after all, my dad has some work stuff to do on a few of the nights so he might now want to. That would be good b/c I am really tired lately. Today I was babystitting my regular MWF kid and we were in the pool at his appartment. He gets cold pretty quickly b/c he's little and scrawny so we got out and he said, "I wanna go work out!" It was so cute, and he really did go use the treadmills and weight machines in the rec room! I did too and we watched Danny Phantom, so that was fun. After that I went to have dinner with my mom and brother and get some stuff for my Halloween costume from her house. Sorry I didn't write on my story like I said I would but that's why, very busy, very tired. The cold and knee pain are almost totally gone now though so that's good. I've been playing around with my intro today as you can see. S-chan made me a really cool welcome banner! Now Duo and Heero will always be on my site! Didn't she do a great job? I took a couple of things down to make room though b/c I don't like a really full or crowded intro on my site. My penguin and the little Heero doll that I had adopted. My friend Litamiko is trying to get 20 GB signatures by the end of the week so if you would go sign I'd appreciate it!! Today's CLAMP manga is Rex Kyoryou Monogatari. Don't know a thing about it, but it sure is cute!

   Don't live in doubt, just try it out...

"Think Positively, Positively Think" from "The Halloween Machine" aka the 4th grade play...no idea who it's by but it was sooo cute when they did it tonight! I was so proud of all of them, especially my one student that has Asperger's! He even sang a short solo! So...I was all excited that Thursday would be the last day of Italian, right? And tonight the teacher says, he says... Il signore(teacher): Are you all continuing to Italian 2? Mio papa(dad): When is it? Il signore: It just continues on for another 3 weeks. Me(sounds like meh): So it's next week? Il signore: Si (yes) Mio papa: Well, we'll have to try and get into it then, are you expecting more students? (we're the only ones in this class!) Il signore: Oh yes, lots more. Mio papa: Ok, do you want to Katy? Me: Uhh...*thinks - no, dammit, no! this old man is creepy!* Ok... So, yeah, that was how it went, looks like 3 more weeks of Italiano for me...oh well...current health status: cold - getting better, knee - getting worse. It's b/c I drive a standard, don't get me wrong, I love my little car, but most people can give their left leg a rest when driving... My friend Johnna gave me 2 candles today! It was a belated housewarming present since I moved into my new apartment. One is vanilla scented and the other is jasmine. Mmmmm! Wow, everybody and their brother updated yesterday! I mean, I love to read my friends posts, but it sure took a long time today, so many people were on! That's good! Today's CLAMP manga is Tsubasa Reservior Chronicle. I know I just did this one like a week ago, and I normally wouldn't repeat, but I just got vol. 3 today! Look at the cool cover! I also started reading The Legend of Chun Hyang. It's pretty good. I'm glad all these old CLAMP mangas are coming out in the US at the same time as Tsubasa b/c it makes it more interesting to meet the characters and know where they came from. In vol.3 Syaoran and company get to meet Chun Hyang, but her name is spelled Chu'nyan! This cool icon was made by Lintu and it supports rock bands! I would put it in my intro but it's waaay full!

   Eight, eight, I forget what eight was for...

"Kiss Off" by The Violent Femmes Today was long, but I am feeling a bit better. Thanks for all the well wishes *hugs everyone* I hope yesterday was the worst of it and it goes away quickly. I'm so glad everyone liked the new AMV too! I was surprised actually, but that's good. Unfortunately I am still too sick/busy to write on my story and will be tomorrow too. Gomen to all of my readers, Wednesday night I should have some free time. Next week Italian will be over so things will get a little less busy then. Tomorrow night is the 4th grade play. It's called "The Halloween Machine" and is cheesey, but cute. I have seen it a few too many times already...today the class started reading Tuck Everlasting. I hate, hate, hate that book. I had to read it in 5th grade and the ending just disturbs me. Every time I hear the name I shudder. Tuck Everlasting...*shudders for dramatic effect* Seriously though, I hate it! I had to ask the teacher to do as little of it as possible while I'm in the room! My knee is hurting again. It's an old marching band injury (we had a lot of holes in our field that were rather hard to see when carrying a 40lb drum...) that has been aggravated by jumping around in a few too many mosh pits over the years. Anyway, today after tutoring Alexis and I were jumping on her trampoline and...yeah, it hurts. Ouchie. My mommy took me shopping tonight too! I got 2 shirts and a sweater which Nova is now lying on (damn cat leaving black hair all over everything!) I have decided to be a vampire for Halloween. A cute vampire. I got glow in the dark teeth and I'm going to wear black pants, a cape, and a pink tank top. Then I'll put my hair in pigtails and Selena-chan is going to do my makeup all pink and red and glittery. Kind of a weird idea I guess, but I like it. Today's CLAMP manga is The Legend of Chun Hyang AJ-kun got the first volume today, I can't wait to read it!

   Brainwashed by our teachers, brainwashed by all their rules...

"Brainwashed" by George Harrision...*sniff, sniff* That was a sad sniff, *cough* but this one is a sick sniff, *sniffle, cough* Ugh...I feel like puke. Not, I'm going to puke, I am puke. It's not a pleasant feeling. We need a little icon with a thermometer in its mouth for all us sick people. Bleh... I didn't get to sleep as much today as I wanted. I woke up at 9am b/c I couldn't breathe. I did get a lot done though. Washed clothes, got Hikari a new kennel (more like a big metal cage) unpacked and organized all (oh dammit, he's puking on my quilt right now) eh...all the stuff on my bookshelf...um what else? Oh, I didn't get to write on my story because I fell asleep at 7pm and woke up again at 1am (an hour ago now...) I tried to make myself go back to sleep but I couldn't breathe again so here I am...I did change my AMV of the week though. It's I Try by Macy Gray and features Fuu and Ferio from Magic Knight Rayearth. I started making this one in January and then stopped in the middle to make the Hikaru video (you'll see that one next) and I think it suffered b/c when I went back to it I got kinda sloppy. Well, tell me what you think! Sorry, no CLAMP manga today, I need my favorite bishie to make me feel better *huggles Duo-kun* Ahhh...

   Bloom

Bloom, Bloom, Bloom, Bloom! - The band I saw tonight! Don't remember any of their lyrics, and didn't learn the names of any of their songs, but they were really good! Was quite taken with the singer, he was very cute until Bethy talked to him and we realized he was kind of a jerk. Oh well. So...my weekend...has gone by very quickly. Friday - babysat two different familes of kids and then went to AJ-kun's house. We ordered Chinese food and went to KMart with his mom to look at Halloween stuff. We uploaded one of his fanarts and it's quite good, an original anime of a fairy. I stayed over till about 6am and then came home to find that Hikari had chewed up my Disney movie of Robin Hood and my Wolf's Rain tape. Waaah! So...after kicking the crap out of him (I really hate doing that) I did my best impression of Milton from Office Space... "That's it, that's the last straw." Saturday - (today) Mom called and woke me up at 2:30 b/c we were supposed to go shopping. She said to call her back later so I fell asleep till 4:15 when Tim called for...something I can't remember. I got up and cleaned my apartment since Beth was coming at 9:30 and then called my mom and decided to go clothes shopping on Monday instead. Then I went to KMart to buy some glow in the dark vampire teeth I saw there. Went to Petco and bought Hikari this really cool kennel that is like a tent so he won't get into stuff while I'm gone anymore, and then unpacked some more boxes. Beth showed up and we went out and met her sister to watch a bunch of local bands that were hot when we were in high school but now are just old. It was weird. Came home at 1:30am to find Hikari had busted out of the kennel screen already. Sunday - (which hasn't happened yet) I will sleep! Then I will return that crappy ass kennel and get a metal cage like one. So much for having a cute one that's all soft and comfy. Then I will write more of my story, change my AMV of the week and quizes, and visit everyone's sites that I haven't been able to this weekend. So far tonight the computer is behaving so we'll see how long it lasts. I won't be able to get it fixed any time soon since I had to spend a bunch of money on a dog kennel. Oh well...I hope everyone else had a great weekend! *hugs* Today's CLAMP manga is Miyuki-chan in Wonderland. Never read the manga but I have the DVD. EDIT: I think I'm sick...It's 9am! What the hell am I doing up already? I really do think I'm catching a cold though...

   I shouldn't go but you're wrenching, dragging, shaking me...

"Perfect Drug" by Nine Inch Nails My friends the time may soon come when you will not hear from me. Why? Because my computer will be broken due to a fist going through it, namely mine. And there will be blood, lots and lots of blood...sorry if I don't sound like my usual self at the moment but I am seriously about to have a nervous breakdown due to this siren noise. Yesterday it managed to go a whole hour without doing it, but today it was literally every 10 minutes! I could only visit a few people's sites (gomen to the rest of you) b/c as I was trying to comment back to people I kept having to shut down the computer! Aaahhh!! Have I mentioned that my car beeps too? Oh, yes, it does! It thinks your seatbelt is off all the time and will never ever stop beeping! So between the two sounds all day long it's enough to make me want to do nothing but sit in a totally silent dark place... Ah...anyway, chapter 41 of my story is up now *points down* but...WARNING!!! This chapter contains mega spoilers concerning the ending of The Demon Ororon manga. I'm sorry if this upsets you but I just couldn't write it convincingly and still keep the contents of the manga ambiguous. *AJ-kun!!* Do not read it until you finish those books, at least I can save one person from having the end told to them ahead of time. hee hee, how cute! CLAMP in Wonderland! Looks like they're having a party in this one! I need to sleep, another busy day is on deck tomorrow, if I'm not on don't think I broke the computer, I might be out somewhere...

   Isn't that what life is made of...

"I Think I Love You" another oldie covered by my dear Less Than Jake! Ah...hm...where do those things come from anyway? I just start typing and before I know it there's some strange pointless conversation about nothing. Well, my computer is still doing that siren thing but I'm beginning to think it's a blessing in disguse or whatever. The fact that I have to shut my machine down every 30 minutes or so is making me get up and do stuff like vacum the floor, fold my laundry, etc. in the meantime so I guess it's helpful. Today was another overly busy day, but hopefully tomorrow things will slack off a bit. I think the kid I babysit is going out of town for a couple days. Ah, thanks very much to Evil and Tepocoora for letting me know that you can just delte old PMs so you won't run out of space. As it turned out some other people were concerned about this happening too so I just wanted to mention it. Today's CLAMP manga is Wish. I only have the first volume but it's pretty cute! I think photobucket is about to do something evil...if all my pics disappear suddenly you'll know why. Please enjoy chapter 40! *points down* Warning! This chapter does contain a slight spoiler concerning something that happens at the end of the Return of the Jedi DVD but it in now way affects the story of the movie. It's just something they threw in to tease the hardcore fans in my opinion. Also, the chapter title does not imply that this is the end of the story, it's referring to the movie.

   Choking on your alibis...

"Mr. Bright Side" by The Killers Thanks to everyone who commented/read my story/watched my video yesterday. It means a lot to me! *hugs everyone* I will try to update my story every other day from now on so look for chapter 40 tomorrow! I think it is getting close to the end now...we'll see... anybody know what happens when you run out of PMs? I only have about 5 left...guess we'll find out, huh? Today was sooo incredibly busy! Five out of the nine preschool teachers were out sick! AJ-kun's mom was one of them, and actually I'm surprised I didn't catch it too since I'm over there so much, lucky me I guess! Ooh, I forgot the coolest thing about the rally on Sunday! While we were sitting on the grass waiting (for like 2 hours!) there was this girl sitting in front of me reading Demon Diary! She was probably only a couple years younger than me too, looked like a UF student. I really wanted to talk to her, but I figured she would probably be creeped out if some strange girl was like, "Hey! Can I read your book?" so I didn't. Today's CLAMP manga is one I've never heard of, actually there are a lot of those at CLAMP Dreamland... but it's cool to see them anyway. It's called Cluster. Anything anyone knows about it would be appreciated! Looks cool, huh?
