You know you're a child of the 90s if you can quote two or more of the rhymes from Jumanji! *snirk*
Yeah, so it's raining... the day started out pretty ominous looking, but it wasn't too bad when I left for my Ant Lab this morning. Well, as the day progressed, so did the rain. So about an hour ago, when it looked like it had finally let up, I decided to go to Mickey D's for dinner... And OF COURSE while I was there, it started raining again (i wasn't dumb - i did bring my umbrella with me just in case). And OF COURSE (again), it started POURING as I was walking back here to Kellum. There is nothing more literally chilling in the world than walking in the rain and having nothing to prevent the water from soaking all the way up your jeans to your knees. Oh, and I had flip flops on b/c I hate when my chucks get wet, so my feet were freezing.
It's times like this when I really want my Sikozu to snugglez close while watching a good rainy day movie (usually ends up being on of the SW movies, for some reason) - but alas, Sputnik is at home and I'm here. No cuddlez for me *sniff*
Finally got my Lion King DVD yesterday! I'm planning on watching that after I finish updating here. It's been so long since I've watched it, and I'm very much looking forward to it. LK is the greatest Disney movie of all time, after all!
Speaking of movies, I've seen a few in the past couple of days. Okie donkie, I've really only watched two I hadn't seen before, but that's neither here nor there. Into the Wild was the first one I watched. I got it for like $2 at Mike's DVD stand since I had a free purchase, and I've been wanting to see it since Spring semester when it showed at the SLC. It was a really good movie, but the end pissed me off! I won't give away WHY it did, but it just did! GRRR! And the other movie I saw was Body of Lies. What?? That doesn't come out until Friday you say?? Well, the SLC had an advanced screening of it, and of course I went. GREAT MOVIE!!!! Lives up to all the other amazing Ridley Scott movies (for my non-movie enthusiast flisters, he's done such awesome things as Black Hawk Down, Kingdom of Heaven, and American Gangster) - but of course, true to form, it was a little long. Other than that, excellent flick - ya'll should go see it.
Both of my checking accounts are wonko - one says I have LESS than my checkbook is telling me. I know at least part of that is true b/c I lost a HT receipt and can't remember how much the purchase was. But it was off before that, and IDK where this money is going. I'm pretty good of keeping track of my receipts, and this less than what my checkbook says crap is frustrating. And then my other one is telling me my available balance is MORE than my current balance - it's almost always the OTHER way around since the available balance shows what's really there while the current balance shows what's there before a day's purchases are taken out. And it's not a small difference - it's about an $83 difference! That's A LOT of money and there isn't anything I should be getting refunded for - i've barely used that account! For the first account, I'm going by what the ATM was telling me b/c it's better to have more money than you think than less. As for the second account, I'm treating like that $83 difference isn't there. Definitely going by the CURRENT balance until I have concrete evidence that extra $83 is really there!
I'm slowly trying to get caught up on my fic serieses. So far, I've updated Chance on Love (which is now finished), Wanted, and Gone Country (which will be posted soon - probably tonight after I wanted The Lion King). Others are definitely sure to follow.
That's about it for now - I'll attempt to update again later. There IS more I want to say, but I want to get this movie watched before it's too late!
