O frabjous day, callooh callay! Who ever is the god of wealth has smiled upon me! I have found out that if I persistently do my chores, I will earn more than enough to cover costs for my Catwoman costume, and for the convention! Room and all! I am very excited, because I had been despairing over how expensive everything is. But, if things go well, I will be able to get everything I need for my Catwoman costume, and perhaps even splurge on some things. Like getting a really nice whip *plotplot* >:3 I haven't even checked any local costume stores. Though I want to, to see if I can find a better suit or goggles or what-have you.
I would even be able to get the stuff I need for my tentacle loli outfit. Which is mostly for grins and giggles, but I still really want to put it together, just to have. I'll also be able to afford my costume for my friend's masquerade ball, and maybe even the tea party everyone insisted I throw. (Though I may wait until it cools down a bit. It's been sweltering lately)
Speaking of sweltering I have two tales of woe about how FREAKING HOT it has been recently. :3
The first is something of an FML. So I decided to get off my lazy arse and go check out some books from the library. I got all my stuff together, and found my library card and everything. I kept on thinking I should bring my wallet, but I didn't because I couldn't find it. Once I started off I regretted deciding to do it in the middle of the day. It was very bright, very sunny, and very, very, hot out. And the course I take to the library consists of a rather long stretch on a dirt road, with hardly any shade. By the time I got to the library I was dying. But the library is nice and air-conditioned, and I was soon cooled off. I had a lovely pile of books picked out too. Needless to say I felt accomplished. But, lo and behold, when go to check out my books, the computer tells me I cannot, due to my outstanding fines... (over 10 dollars) I didn't have any money on me either, so I had to go put back my books and walk home through the same scorching conditions, but I had the pleasure of being empty handed. It kinda sucked.
Then, today, I went the same rout to meet kelsey to go have lunch. Pretty much the conditions were the same, but this time I was on a bike. (With a practically flat back tire mind you. Stupid bike tires and their holes) Now I've been waking up at noon or later most days, because I stay up most of the night on the computer and what have you. So I hadn't been awake very long when I had to be off. This also meant that I hadn't eaten. Which was 100% stupid on my part. So I'm riding through the sun with no food in my stomach, and I meet Kelsey, but we still have this lovely hill to go up. About half way, I know I'm in trouble because I'm having a hard time breathing (don't worry I don't have asthma, I'm just a pansy-ass) and I'm "seeing stars" really the were totally awesome geometric rainbow patterns. So I stop and pretty much collapse, and I'm freaking out because I feel like I'm going to lose consciousness, which would suck obviously. But we are uber close so I get up and cross the road but I have to pause a bit after that too. We finally get to the place and it's cool inside and away from the sun, and I start feeling tons better right away. And the food there is delicious, I got the Fettucini Alfredo (Kelsey suggested I get some carbs. But it was an Italian place, so really what else am i going to get?) And I felt tons better, after I ate something and got a cold drink. So it was just getting there that was a bitch, after that I had a fantastic time.
Oh and I suppose I should just toss this in here, just because everyone wants to hear about my romantic life. But Alex and I snogged, twice now. Hooraaayyy. It took a bit to get used to it at first, I'm not a very good at necking, but I think I have it figured out, at least with him. Derp. That is all.
