Sometimes the Internet is Just a Big Frelling Piece of Dren

So, like, I would have been on-line last night, but the blasted internet refused to cooperate. Sigh.

Tom started school yesterday, first day as a high school sophomore, and apparently it went well. Tomorrow is his birthday and we're going to Wenatchee. Whoopdy-ding.

Today Neesha and I met for lunch at a new Mexican restaurant in Royal. It was pretty good, although I couldn't finish. How Neesha finished I will never know. And I'm not sure I really want to. :) Then we went up to the hs and bothered random people/teachers. It was odd to be semi-introduced to Mrs. Neiffer's September Experience student teacher with first names. Sometimes I forget that I'm old enough to be allowed first names now. Hmm. So I came home and we all had dinner at Grandma's as an early sort of birthday thing for Tom. Fun fun. I made the salad (so HA crazy aunt!) and the rice. And they didn't suck. So there.

I only have one more chapter/story left in Mr. Midshipman Hornblower and then I can continue on. Unfortunately I have now watched all of the HH movies that A&E has thus far made. This makes me somewhat of a sad panda. :( Although I can re-watch and re-watch as much as I like, but still. I want more Horatio! And Pellew! And Bush! And Styles and Matthews!

I also just accidentally allowed my Commodore Norrington Love to approach "insane" again. Whoops.

I also re-established my utter geekiness by ordering a Farscape poster. To keep my map of Middle Earth and Neverwhere poster company in my dorm room. *big geek*

And now, some messages for my friends:

overjoy - I'll try and continue writing. Good luck with your first day of high school!

bunnysan - Good luck at the job interview!

trademybike - I read the bit of script that you sent me, have comments, but AIM is being uncooperative. Arse. Also, happy (slightly early at the moment) birthday!

annundriel - I realized after I got offline with you the night I sent it that I didn't send you the whole thing, I missed a big portion of the very beginning, so next time you get online, I'll send you that part... it builds a bit more about Nove and Calle

Probably answers some of the questions I had during/after reading.

And AIM's finally working.

Thank you! I hope I do well...>.

Oh, splendid!

I have to ask, how big is your high school? I graduated with about 72 other students and all three schools (elementary, middle, and high) are on the same campus, so there's very little room to get lost. College is another thing, though!
