i feel so unorganized, chaotic and dirty

my hair is in my face...
My day started with me waking up early, early for me, at 12:30pm, not really sure of what time it was or why I had woken up, but I knew that my mom was coming soon, and that if I were to fall back asleep, there was no way I was going to get up in time for her arrival.. so I got up, kept myself busy by cleaning up the clothes a bit, while searching for something to wear at the same time... I settled for a red shirt and grey cords.. nothing fancy, but who cares.. you can't really see the outfit at all in that picture *points* but it's from today.. so... look at it.. or something.. whatever it is you people do with pictures. I hung a few clothes up, folded some and threw some against the wall in protest, until around 1:10 or so, when Emily started stirring and finally woke up, which was when I decided to inform her that she had to wake up and get ready to go out because my mom was going to be there shortly.. I think she was a bit annoyed that I waited so long to wake her up, but... I have this thing about waking people up... I hate it. I hate doing it, I hate thinking about it, I hate doing it by accident, I hate thinking about doing it by accident... so I try to avoid it as best as possible. Anywho, we both got ready pretty quickly and shortly afterwards, my mom arrived (with some presents!!) and naturally, walked in on her own, as I never ever hear the door. She brought me: two cans of tomatos (yay, more tomatos!! *drools*, two cans of tuna.. tuna caserol means YAY!, a box of vegetable rottini (omg.. best pasta ever, and some rice, which was awesome of her because it was just out of nowhere and each and everything she brought for me I love so much and I never get the chance to eat or buy any of it... it was very sweet of her. So once we were all set, we forced Kairi into the cat cage (by breaking all her legs, and then proceeding to smash her head against the wall until her body went limp, then we pushed her into the cage and locked the door.. naturally we assumed she would be fine of course)... okay.. maybe I exaggerated a bit.. Emily stuffer her in nice and quick, but she definitly didn't want to go in there (awww, she's curled up in a little warm ball on my lap right as I type this.. she's all sleeping and purring, and I loves her so much. I will kill them in my sleep. you watch.). We got in the car and drove to the vets, which is at Adelaid and Huron (where Ally used to live!) while listening to Thursday [War All The Time], and we got there with a few minutes to spare.

The vets acted pretty quickly and called Kairi in within minutes, which was impressive as I was expecting the expected wait of god knows how long (yes, that actually IS a measurement of time) and in we went into examination room 3! ( I personally prefer examination room 1, but I suppose 3 will do ). The vet we got I had never seen before, so it had me... hmmm... what's the word.. I dunno, I wasn't as comfortable as I could have been, if the regular vet had been there. She talked... a lot.. the appointment was for one shot. ONE shot.. she went on and on about stuff forever, which isn't neccessary a bad thing, it was just unexpected. She talked to us about cat lukemia, cat aids, blood work, checked her ears for mites (which are completely gone now! way to go Kairi, you rock my socks), checked her teeth, checked her weight, tried to check her heart.. for like two minutes, but Kairi wouldn't stop purring no matter what. The vet tried to scare her, so she would stop purring, for long enough to check the heartbeat, because you can't hear it over the purring. So she brought Kairi over to the sink and turned on the water a lot, Kairi just kinda watched her like, "what the hell are you doing? and kept purring. and purring. and purring more. So then the vet said sometimes plugging the cats nose will freak them out and they definitley won't pur.. so she tried that. Kairi's eyes looked kinda scared, but more in the, "why the hell is this woman touching my nose" kinda way. She just used her paw to try to pry her fingers off her nose, but kept on purring the whole time.. haha, it was funny. The vet gave up. Emily was then asked to hold Kairi's shoulders (something I always do with my kitties.. but I didn't mind I guess) and then the vet gave her the shot, and Kairi purred some more. Then, we asked the vet about buying Advantage Flea Treatment [link to the website], because after the day of Kairis first visit, I saw some fleas on Marle, and I combed one out of Tidus.. so I bought six treatments (the smallest package you could get) and that was that. Paying took forever because their computers crashed and we just sat around.. it was alright though, at least they weren't jerks about it.. so then we payed (I'm in debt around $250 just for Kairi so far, and another $110 gets added to that in a week.. fuck me.).

After we finished at the vets, my mom drove us to her new house and showed us around.. I really liked it. It was small and cozy, and I could totally picture my mom being happy there forever. She could have a garden in the back, with sun shining in the soon to be installed sliding doors, look out the window of her office while using the computer and just smile... yeah.. she can be real happy there.. I want to help her with it too, I'll do anything I can. After she showed us her part, we went around front and showed me Marylins, which was about the same size except had hardwood floors and a much nicer kitchen. All in all, I think it's a great house, in a great location, and it's awesome that they found it. Once we were done there, my mom agreed to drop me off at Dundas and Wellington to meet Michelle for our movie outting, but on the way Kairi threw up a little chunk of cat food and then started really really drooling a lot at the mouth, almost foaming.. and she looked so scared, and she was getting all wet from her own drool.. I took klenex and opened the cat cage and wiped her mouth for her and tried to clean her up a bit, tried to comfort her but she just looked at me with these scared eyes... the exact same look I would give someone if I was scared and going through the same thing... and me and tidus and marle are her bestfriends and I was about to leave her and I felt so bad.. I almost cried.. and then I almost cried again when I told Michelle.. it really took me awhile to snap out of it.. I was so worried that I'd get home and she would've died or been rushed to the vets or something.. it was really scary to see one of my bestfriends go through something like that. but.. I still left.. and felt bad for it.. I was dropped off at the corner, around ten to three, and Michelle was there waiting.

Michelle and I walked to the Galleria mall, and then into the Rainbow Theatre, and Michelle took out some money from the crappy ETM machine (yes, Etm, not ATM, Etm, so get the hell off my case about it okay?), and then we went and walked around downtown for a bit... well, basically walked to speed city to find out they didn't sell tickets to a show that Michelle wanted to go, but it's on the other side of downtown, so it's kinda like we walked around downtown... except.. well.. shut up. We kept running into this huge group of thugs, which is funny.. because this is London, Ontario. I just thought it was funy, because they were all thuggin it up yo. Michelle and I wanted to go up to them and say, "word to your mother" and just see what they would do... but then we saw something shiney and ran after it. We wasted some more time walking around and looking at stuff to buy for a.. certain someone *glares around* and finally ended up back at the theatre. Michelle bought our tickets to The Day After Tomorrow, which were only $3.50 each, thanks to us going at the matinee time, like we were an elderly couple or something, and then went upstairs and handed the intimidating business suit wearing lady my ticket, and she stubbed it. how dare she I say.. how dare she. aaaanyway, we went over to the fat/lard dispensory area, and michelle ordered a small popcorn and a large peach juice, and I ordered a large butter with popcorn and a large 7-Up (fountain cola sucks my left elbow), and then we went in and sat down in our spots (middle back center.. make sense? anyone who goes to movies would know where I'm talking about.. to all the rest of you.. get a life dammit! losers.), and Michelle quickly decided that she infact needed some 'sprinkley stuff' on her popcorn, to which I responded with.. "okay." and off she went to sprinkle stuff on her popping corn. When she returned, I turned off my GBA SP, and then she asked me if I had recieved enough butter for my popcorn soup, to which I replied that I could in fact still feel my tongue, see clearly and I didn't have a numbing sensation in my left arm, so she went and got a few more squirts of liquid death on my pop corn... shortly after she got back, the previews started and we sunk into our chairs and the adventure started.

This movie was all about the special effects.. which were awesome. As most of my regular readers would know, I am in love with storms. I love them, I have so much
love for them.. this movie was all about a giant storm, so I was in heaven in that regard, the effects of the storm, all the different degrees, waves, hail, lightning, thunder, down pours, everything, I loved that, it totally set the atmosphere, you could just FEEL the coldness coming off the screen, and smell the rain as it poured down, the effects were brilliant, worth the price of addmission right there.. it made the movie fun. The story that they threw in to give purpose to the special effects has it's flaws.. which you can't really look past that much.. sadly. First, the father in the film, also the main character, hikes from washington to new york, in an artic snowsuit to be with his son, and makes it. Now.. there is no way he would make it, when millions of people died, just because he has done surverys and drilling in the arctic. Secondly, why would he walk all the way there.. it's not like he could SAVE his son, I mean, the snow will still be there, nothing will change except you can hug the bastard, and is it really worth the walk and possible cramps for that? No. So that angle of the story was sorta.. "what the fuck? give me a break". A few other minor things bugged me... such as how little it mattered that the chick the son (good ol' donnie) fell in love with cut her leg. They only mentioned it once, and only used it as a reason to have man hungry wolves hunt down the three younger characters, which wolves most likely wouldn't do anyway. I thought that it was unncessery.. since it didn't even get cut on anything that made sense.. a bumbper on a taxi? give me abreak. Also, out of no where, on the hike to new york, the main character's long time bestfriend fell and weighed a lot cause he was fat (but he was cute in that I'm old and have a bear kinda way) and he just killed himself so his bestfriend could go give hugs to his sun in the snow.. what the hell is that? They didn't get you connected or attatched to that character enough to even care that he died, or that he sacrificed himself. you just didn't care enough for him yet.. so I thought that was dumb as well. and I guess the last stupid thing I'll mention was the fact that for some reason they threw in a dying bald kid who liked peter pan. Why? No, seriously, why? He's dying, he needs an ambulance to even move from his bed. With thousands and thousands of people dying all around, why work so hard to save an already dying young child from this disaster, to which the view has noooo idea bout, no connection to, no information of why he's sick, where he came from, or why we should care if he gets his head cut off with six axes at once.. I just thought it was kinda silly.. to make a sympathy character, and then never establish why we should feel sympathy for him.. *sigh* I guess you can't have everyhintg. but don't get me wrong... yes, the plot had tons of holes and stupid things you could point out.. they'd introduce characters, and then never develop them, or even really tell you their names, and then they'd disappear, or reappear later.. yeah, the story was crap. but the effects, and how possible they made it seem was very well done. It was FUN! That's the main point! It was fun to watch! It was fun to watch all the disasters, it was funt o watch everything freeze, and rain and flood! It was just a fun movie to lose yourself in for a few hours.. so I definitley recommend to everyone that they see it, just so they can smile for a bit and then discuss the plot holes with other cynics [to all those people that are idiots, click here].

I got home from the movies at.. some time.. which I don't remember at all... and Emily informed me that she was going to Allys to go out to get some fries with her, and then they were going to see a play. I had some change from my mom still, so I go re-ready and then took the bus with Emily right back to the mall (right when I got home too.. sheesh I says, sheesh) and picked up some chicken and dill pickle chips, while Emily stayed on the bus and went to Allys. When I got home, I cooked my supper (two chicken thighs and some rice) and watched south park.. it was really trying to be offensive, and just came off as kinda funny.. which was.. kinda funny. aanyway, I only kept it on while I ate, and after I was finished, I tried playing Final Fantasy 6 for a few minutes, but I had a bad headache and I was restless and I just couldn't sit there and play.. I hate when I get in a mood like that, because I always want to play so much, but if I can't sit down and concentrate and get into it, then I just can't play, but I still want to, so I get really frustrated and stuff.. argh. I basically just sat at my computer the whole night, playing Zuma, chatting to a few random people, and listening to some random music. My girls and I did set up some plans though, which is exciting. For going to the big show tomorrow [The Fetish Masquerade Show] and for Jennys birthday party.. of course I'll give you more information on both of those, after they happen

Emily got home at around 12:30 and once she got here, she played Final Fantasy 6 for while, trimmed the back of my hair quickly and then played Final Fantasy 6 some more. Once she was too tired to play anymore (around 3:30am) I played Final Fantasy X-2 for a bit until she was almost asleep, then I stopped, and I took my pills, built up a bit in X-2 and then decided to write this... I guess that leaves us up to date mostly.. except for a few details I left out for some reason.. maybe cause I don't feel like I can write anymore... maybe because I don't think it's any of you people's business.. meh.. I guess we'll never know. So remmeber, The Fetish Masquerade's BIG show is tomorrow at Call The Office at 9pm, for $5. Be there if you appreciate music and entertainment from four genuine entertainers. GO! DO IT!! They're homeless... heheh.. and on Sunday is Jennys birthday party, so everyone wish her a happy birthday (party). and that, as they say, is that.
