WOW OKAY

I'M GOING TO MAKE A POST FOR REAL. Okay I have to think about what has happened. I'll go backwards.

Yesterday my sister was supposed to go to the doctor, but she didn't, and instead we all went to the Strip to meet up with one of my friends from Tumblr. It was pretty freakin' awesome even though we didn't find Bumblebee. We took pictures with people dressed as all sorts of stuff and walked around and it was super fun. Before we went to Fremont Street we ate at Jack in the Box where a guy was swinging around a bottle of piss.

Then the day before that, I guess that would be Saturday? I dunno. I think that was the day that James and I decided to walk around Town Square. They replaced Border's with a CONTAINER STORE. It is literally a store full of containers. Of all shapes and sizes. I went to H&M to find leggings but couldn't find ones that I liked. We went to Fry's to look around at stuff and I found a Train Simulator that I want for Christmas or something. I've played with some before because train feels everywhere but I've never actually owned one. So I obsessed about that for the rest of the day. We also got Chipotle. Yep.

Annnnd uh. The day before that would be Friday. Which... I know we did something. OH NO WAIT. On FRIDAY we went and did that stuff at Town Square. On Saturday, it was Mike's 23rd birthday! So we all went out to Red Lobster to eat. I meat some of his friends that I've apparently met at Anime Vegas, and we enjoyed biscuits and wrote stories about sad lobsters and penguins pooping on the floor. Then we went to the arcade at Sunset Station and James and I played a game of Deal or No Deal where we picked the freaking one ticket briefcase, and it narrowed down to either 1 or 200. I pestered him into taking the final deal and we came out with 100 tickets, which we used to buy a big blow up hammer. It was hilariously fun.

Later that day I read through the second draft of Invictus and live-tweeted the horrible parts while skipping over most of it, mostly just screaming about supa kawaii babby Sin is because that is what I do with my life now. I know that on Thursday, the D4 came in! I played around with it and it was totally amazing. I have no doubt that it will be the best camera I ever get to use. I also did some editing for DotFit spots that look pretty awesome. Then when I got home, James and I went to Chinatown-area because I needed to get fitted for my outfit. I am modeling in a lolita fashion show this Friday at AniMegaCon, so everyone in town should come down and visit me! I'll be there all weekend and my cousin Mika's friend is the designer of all the clothes we'll be wearing~! So I got fitted for that, and afterward, we went to Anime Ramen. I really wanted chicken curry. The cosplayer waitresses were all really nice and gave me some hot water for my shirt when I dropped a peice of curry into the bowl and it splattered onto my sleeve. I felt like such an idiot. But then we went to the Chinatown mall and I bought some notebooks, one of which chronicles the adventure of a Soviet bunny plushie. I'll post pictures of it sometime.

Um. Okay. So that was Thursday, so on Wednesday I have no idea what happened? Oh no wait. Kaela came over! And I played through most of Haunting Ground, and fun times were had. Jame and I also went to CiCi's Pizza because I wanted buffalo chicken pizza~! Then I know that on Tuesday we dropped Mari off at her new job at Starbucks, after they stayed the night on Monday. We had gone and seen the new Batman movie, which was absolutely the best movie I've seen since Dark of the Moon came out.

THEN. Alright. Monday was the day we got back. Now I can start working forward. I think. We left for California on Thursday I think, and came back on Sunday or Monday, I can't really remember properly. Gosh what a fun and eventful vacation. We headed out to Palmdale in the dark listening to loud music and reminiscing about Daft Punk. I hadn't listened to their albums since like 9th grade when they got popular at EKA. We arrived late at night and watched some Olympic swimming with his cousin Mike. We went to bed late and got up early the next morning!

James' dad had bad heartburn, so we started the long 3 hour drive to Solvang by ourselves. It was about 8 AM when we left, and we blasted the music and found our way through the hills to the coast and it was absolutely the most fun ever. I love being in the car with him because we both laugh and derp around so much, and we have the same taste in electronica and we'll both sing along to the music. The coast was gorgeous, and after what seemed like a forever trip, with odd stops at gas stations in farming towns and crazy Californian drivers, we got to Solvang. It is still as cute and perfect as I remember it to be. Since we only had a few hours to run around, I just kinda went on this mad dash to find gifts for everyone and visit the shops I like. We had a nice lunch and I got a delicious croissant sandwich. James bought me a tiny tea set because I love tiny tea sets. I got presents nad we saw the bookstore and the horses and the little Danish bakeries and gah. It was wonderful. Then, on the way back, we stopped in Santa Barbara and went to the beach! That was amazing too, so much fun. It was a long drive back to Palmdale, but worth it.

The next day, we went to the super huge mall in Glendale. It was seriously so enormous I can't even describe it. They had a Lego store. I bought a Transformers Wallet and a shirt from Tilly's that was on sale for like five bucks. They had a three-story Target store! We also ate at a fish place and I got like a gigantic plate of yellow rice. It was so delicious. I slept the whole way home 'cause I was really full.

On the last day before we left, James' aunt Karen came back from a three week trip to India. It was so nice to see his whole family again. I met his cousin Ryne's girlfriend Melissa, and at dinner that night they announced that she was pregnant! So his aunt and uncle will be grandparents! And James will have a first cousin, or cousin once-removed, or whatever that is? I don't know the name. But it was really cute and sweet. She is due to have the baby sometime in early spring next year.

On the day we left, we went to Monroeville ( I think that's the name? ) to pick up James' brother, Alex, who broke his finger playing football and needed a lift back to Las Vegas to get it checked out. The drive there was really neat, and when we stopped like four hours into our trip in Baker, it was 116 degrees. Yesterday, it was 120 degrees in the afternoon. Super hot. But yep! There is a brief summary of what has happened. It's been pretty busy, so I haven't made a post.

Oh also, Auf Wiedersehen, Sweethear tis over and I completely lost it and cried like a douche at the end like I knew I would. It was the part with Feliciano's family being so nice that really got me, and Spain, gosh. Yep. And the very end bit. Oh and we're beginning to put up the foundation of a big new roleplay. I might post it up here when it's finished, but for now it's just an outline. The important part is that I get to play a Sunstorm / Ky / Bishop-type character, which I love doing, because I am a turd. 'Kay.

Later Blogger. I'll post pictures some other time when I feel like it~. =u=
