Lifey stuff

I.
Miss.
WiFi.

And that's the last I'm going to complain about it. 

GUESS WHAT DAY IT IS. IT'S OCTOBER THIRD. THERE'S A GIF FOR THAT. HOW PERFECT IS LIFE??!

It's been a good sort of week... month... Can you believe it's October?! It's freaking October. I'm appalled at how quickly this year seems to be going.

 It's absurd, really.

But anyway. October always makes me feel happy. I don't even know what it is about this month. Nothing special happens during it. It's just October. But I love it. I love the way the leaves change color, the sharpness in the air, the anticipation for winter. (I don't like Winter, but I like the anticipation of it.) I love wearing my warmer clothes, because they're cuter than my summer clothes. I love how it puts me in the mood to be extra crafty. I love how it makes me feel like Christmas is just around the corner. (AAAAAAAAAH CHRISTMAS!! I've already planned most of my Christmas pressies, because I can afford to buy pressies this year.) I love how it makes me want to take walks and buy Starbucks, and maybe try a Pumpkin Spice Latte. I really, really want to go to Hope Valley again. 

I'm really happy right now.

I think.
I'm mostly really happy, and then I'll have days and moments where I'm incredibly homesick and stuff.

But right now, I'm really very happy.

Anyway, life update.

Yeah.

Amy and I went to Carson and did some shopping. I was great googles of fun, and we chortled way too much.

For example, we were in hysterics when my chocolate bar melted into liquid. 

It was priceless.... even though it really wasn't. 

We laughed most of the way home too. It was just a really nice, laid back sort of day, which we both really needed.

And I totally bought this shirt. It's ridiculous how happy it makes me.

And I took this really fabulous picture on the way home. (Yeah, I know. I'm like... so insanely modest about it.)

I told God that if He didn't make me go to Jury Duty, I would buy Him flowers. He didn't make me. I bought Him flowers.

We went to Circus Circus after Mass on Sunday, which was brilliant bushels of fun. This entailed on the road selfies, which Tiny ruined with bunny ears.

So I became Karma.

 I'm not usually one for arcades, but this one is fabulous. (Also, because of the lighting in that place, the following pictures are somewhat.... grainy.)

We started out by going to the brunch buffet which is tradition.

Chloe

Annie refused to stop eating for the picture, so she gets an embarrassing one, because that's the kind of sister I am. *le grin*

Annie, Tiny

Katrina, Bella, Mahri, Dad

And then we have Chloe, who does not appear to be having copious amounts of fun. Like what's wrong with her??!

Joe, Chloe, Amy, Sammi

MEEEEEEE. And Amy who decided randomly that she needed to be in the picture.

And Kat. Who's always cute.

The arcade was really fun. We played games. I won a very soft, but decidedly unattractive gorilla which I now have on my bed. Because it's soft.

Me, gorilla, Amy

We watched some really awesome shows that were just cool. Like this one.

Those dogs, that little man... just on a different day. :) (Except, at ours, two of the dogs came over to visit us. Twice. I don't think they were supposed to do that. It was awesome.)

Amy, Kat

It was really fun.

Annie, Bella, Tiny

I just really want a giant air hockey table, okay!? 

It was such a nice day. Exhausting, but really nice.

I have some cool blog post ideas coming up.

I think I need to do a review on Raven Boys.

But Grimm first, because we caught up and it's... just.... unnnngggh. When is season four!?

Sorry it's been taking so long to get back to your comments. I DO reply! Check, check, check! :)

Picture Saturday is postponed until next week.


And now I must go.

Must must!

Cheers, and God bless, and thank goodness for days off.

Peace out, I'm Batman!

Hello.

Hallo.

'Olo.

FIVE RANDOM FACTS!

1.) My bestest cousin surprised me with a visit over the weekend. (Everyone else knew she was coming up. I did not. They keep doing that to me. lol) It was really lovely! We had lots of coffee and cookies and brownies.... (Wow. I do  talk about food a lot. It's almost like we must have food to truly have a good time!) We watched Psych and played hide-n-seek. In the dark. We went and hung out at the beach. It was funnnnnz.

Yes, we are geeky.

2.) In less than a week, something awesome is going to happen at my home! I can't tell you what it is yet... (it's a surprise for a couple of people who might take it into their heads to read my blog) BUT IT'S GOING TO BE AWESOME AND I'LL TELL YOU SOON!!!

3.) I'm watching the second season of Once Upon a Time. It's good so far. I'm glad James is James again and not David.

4.) I don't like Mulan though. She's.... just terrible. And what's with the hair?

5.) I want to be completely honest with you guys. Supernatural is definitely a grown-up show. I know I have some younger people following me, and I don't want you guys to be misled into thinking that it's squeaky clean, because it's not, always. There's usually an inappropriate line or conversation, and so far there's been one or two episodes a season that have a shameful scene in it. My sister and I have skipped a couple episodes because of said scenes. I don't want to recommend it to anyone without warning you first. It can get a little bit dirty.

And now, I shall away, with a flit and a flutter and a cheerful... something or other.

Cheers!

Disney tag and blog party!

So! Amy is doing a... a.... semi blog party.

Basically all you have to do to participate is answer the questions, and, if you're up to it, write a post about something Disney. (favorite movie, character, villain, etc.)

She drew ^^ that!

Righty! So I'm just going to do the tag this time, and I'll see if I can think up something epic to do as the extra post. (don't be too excited, I might not be able to. lol.)

1.) What is your favorite Disney movie?

     Oohhh. Hmmm. Eh. Probably Tangled. It used to be Sleeping Beauty and Robin Hood, but Tangled is something else, man. lol

2.) Favorite Princess?

     Rapunzel. I can just relate to her so much! It's ridiculous  how much I relate to that girl. Yeah. 

3.) Least favorite princess?

     Ummmmm. I'm going to get so much hate for this. I really could never like Ariel... she was a bit of a... stinker.

4.) Do you like the drawn animation or the computer animated movies better?

     Oh, this one is hard. I actually can't choose. I think the drawn animation ones were probably cooler (it was all freaking drawn, people!) but the computer animation tends to have more detail. And... yeah. It's hard to decide.

5.) Favorite male character?

     To be fair, I'm going to do a list, because it's hard for the older male characters to stand up to Flynn. (since when have animated guys been so attractive?! As if it's not bad enough that I develop crushes on humans I will never meet... now the cartoon guys are awesome too? NOOO!!) Anyway, back to the question. Um. Probably top favorite is Flynn because he's Flynn. But after him are Robin Hood, Prince Phillip (he had the coolest cloak ever!) and Basil of Baker Street.

6.) In your opinion, who was the best villain?
     Oh, Maleficent, defo. She was epically villainous. The turning into a dragon thing was pretty freaking cool!

7.) What is your favorite Disney hairstyle? (I just had to ask that one!)
   

Actually, the newest princess, Anna, has cute hair too. I like her.

8.) What is your favorite story?
     Okay, in case you haven't figured it out yet, Tangled is probably my all time favorite princess movie. But that aside, I'm going to pick my second favorite and say.... Robin Hood... and Beauty and the Beast.

 

9.) Which one has the best romance?
     No contest.

10.) What is your favorite Disney song? *Mrhrhrhr* (Yeah, narrow it down to one!:)
       WHAT?! Uh.... Uh.... Uh..... Uh..........................

      Uhhh..... Uh.....

      Uhhhhh.... uh.... uh....
   

      Hmm. Gosh, this is hard! I'm not going to choose a Tangled one. I won't! I won't! Uh... (Okay, besides, "I see the Light"...)

I never thought I'd say this, but I really love "I'll make a man out of you" from Mulan. (It could just be that I've been wanting to watch that lately, but that song is awesome. Donny Osmond sings it!) But it's so hard to choose because there are so many in so many different styles that I'm like... brain fried. lol.

11.) What is your favorite costume?
       Brave is Disney, right? I loved every one of her costumes. They were gorgeous. I love the colors, I love the style, I love the full skirts, I love every freaking thing about them. I'd adore to have a dress like that!

 

12.) Would you rather go to a ball with a midnight curfew or get lost in the forest and keep house for a bunch of dwarfs?
       Oh my gosh, does this even need asking? Dwarves! Duh! I'm so not the ball kind of girl. I mean, what looks nicer to you? This?

or this?

13.) Who is your favorite non-human character?
       

14.) Do you want adventure in the great wide somewhere or would you rather just be on an Island of your own?
       (I see what you did there.) I'll take the adventure first and then settle on my island, tanned and rested, and alone; surrounded by enormous piles of moneeeeeeeey!

15.) What Disney movie is the most likely to make you cry?
       Most of them do.

16.) What character do you most relate to?
        Rapunzel. She's... a lot like me. Only... braver? lol.

17.) What scene used to scare you the most?
       I'm not gonna lie. That part in Sleeping Beauty, where Maleficent turns into the dragon and Phillip's just like.... "Crud" used to scare the crap out of me.

Also the part in Cinderella when Stepmother looms out of the darkness. She's terrifying!

18.) Did you like Aurora's dress better in blue or pink?
       BLUE, DANG IT! It's way better blue.

19.) Have you seen The Great Mouse Detective?
       love it.

20.) What Disney movie, in your opinion, is the prettiest? Story aside, characters aside, what movie is just the most fun to look at?
       Brave had some pretty freaking awesome scenery.

On the other hand, so does Tangled. 

So yeah. Both of those. :)

Aaaaaaaaaaaand that's about it, y'all. Man, those questions are freaking hard! But this is actually really fun. I need to rewatch so many of the old Disney movies. I've only seen Snow White once or twice and I barely remember it.

But seriously, you should check out Amy's posty, because it'cool and she'd love you to participate. Spread the word! Do the blog party! Whoooo!

And now, because I can't seem to get through a post without mentioning Supernatural.....

Yep. Those are mah boyz.

Byeee!
