Untitled

      Things are going to get interesting for me in a few days. I bought movies online. Seven of them! It will be so awesome to actually have variety. I think I've bought every movie I like! Now all I have to do is hope they get here in good condition.
      Let me see here. Liar Liar, Memoirs Of A Geisha, What A Girl Wants, and the four Tinker Bell movies I've wanted to own since 2014 - I'm guessing. It's a weird story, how I was introduced to Tinker Bell. Did I look up Disney movies? You'd think that. But I was writing my story, a pointless endeavor as always, and came up with the name Mae Whitman. I Googled it, because I have a reputation of coming up with characters who are actually real. Sure as shit, there she was.
      The Tinker Bell movies do get less charming with every watch, but they were only a few dollars, so I figured what the hell. It'll give me some variety, at last; perfect for nights when I'm tired of what little I've got. Say I can't sleep, or I'm too sick to do anything but lie in bed.
      For the longest time I've had Shrek 1-4, Tangled, and Finding Nemo. That was it. Then I got Ice Age 1-4, and years later Toy Story 1-3, Monsters University and Monsters Inc. Aaaand that was about a year ago now. The longest freakin' year of my entire life.
      I also looked up Sagwa DVDs, but Wikipedia only listed the episodes I can watch for zero cost anytime on YouTube. I want to watch ones I haven't seen in maybe ten years. And Action, The Jade Rabbit, Homesick Jun, and...well, that's pretty much it. The rest are available, but I don't want to buy something I can watch on YouTube. The only reason I bought seven movies is because A.), I've always wanted them, and B.), I am so fed up with all the damn Putlockers - none of which really work. And if they do, you can only watch the episode once...It's easier to spend a couple of bucks and have 'em on my bookshelf. They are long, long movies that my computer can't really handle. YouTube is simple, Sagwa is maybe eleven minutes long. No problem.
      I'm going to have to make room!
      I also bought a gorgeous engagement ring and a ring box, sep-arately. No plans to marry yet, but I'm pretty sure I can make a profit on this.
      I had Liar Liar once. On VHS. Then I babysat this devil child. She ate it. She also covered my favorite sweater in a huge gob of snot; I had to throw it away. Not barehanded. I miss that sweater, but it was not salvageable. Have you ever wanted to find a time machine, travel back to where you were done wrong and slap the faces of those responsible? I didn't, because I was a nice kid. Let's just say that was then.
      I can't wait till my items get here! It's like the only good thing in my life right now. This is what's kept me from, well, slapping faces. That and my brother. Everything I do is for him now. Volunteering to do a thousand dishes? Who really does that?

  1. Don't forget "Three Graces", "A New Cook In The Kitchen", "The Competition" (if that's the one with the cool calligraphy contest) . . . and it would be nice if the episodes available for free right now were in decent quality; some, like "Great Balls of Fire" and "Invention by Mistake" and "Master of Mistakes" were filmed off someone's TV screen, or are at least of similarly poor quality. I'd LOVE to get the series on disc, even if I'm old now, LOL :p

    Haha, how much was the ring? Some of those suckers are thousands of dollars . . . G. saved up to buy me an expensive one and I chose one he considered 'cheap', so he took me to the bookstore and got me something like $200 worth in books I wanted :p

    Yep, kids are gross little monsters. I'm glad I don't have any :p

  2. I should say, he got me books I didn't even know I wanted until I saw them :p

    1. Right, those too. A YouTube member promised to upload them and that was four years ago. And he's still active.
      The ring was only $2.69, and it's incredible. My soonest items could be here in three days; and I'm ecstatic because I just bought Shrek Super Slam and Sims 2 Family Fun Stuff. Finally. I hope everything plays alright.
      How's life up there?

    2. $2.69's a pretty great price for anything - I think a two-litre bottle of Pepsi is about the same :p Will you have pictures of it anywhere? :)

      Shrek and Sims make for some real fun! I think my life is better with Sims games to play, haha

      Sunny here today, but we've been getting lots of snow ... not much going on, but that's awesome too :)

    3. Yes, I plan to take pictures. I bought several more rings yesterday; they'll be photographed too.
      My life is better with them, too! It's been raining awhile, I think since yesterday evening. It did actually snow a couple of nights ago...I'm the only one here who likes snow; a little less now that I've seen a sparking electricity line beside trees. Still beautiful though.

    4. Awesome! I don't have as much motivation to take pictures anymore ... but I guess I should start again, at least as far as getting pictures of Silky ... she's over a year old now and hamsters only live a year and a half or two years, maybe three (though I've never been so lucky) ... it would be awful to have pictures of all the others and not her :(

      I love snow, too ... which is good because we're getting more of it now, I think (bit too dark to know for sure).

      I like playing the Sims games when I miss a certain season ... like summer (though I mostly play with my settings set to non-stop summer because I can garden as much as I want without my plants going dormant, lol) :)

    5. I do that, too; until I have enough fruit. Then I play with the other seasons.
      Yes, that would be awful. Is Silky nice, or is she like Hermione?
      My Memoirs DVD arrived early! And in better condition than the seller said. So happy. :D

    6. She's more like Hermione - female hamsters tend to be harder to train, and we just didn't have time for her; what with G.'s family stuff last year, we were away from home during her youngest months, when she would have been most easily trainable. She still tries to bite us, so we don't hold her much ... :(

  3. It's the original design. I previewed the new look and didn't much care for it.
