Dad just got home from surgery. Everything went well and he's got a follow up appointment to see how he's healing.

[*Jess♥]

good news on that, glad he is doing ok.

I used to knit with needles when i was a young teen. it's pretty interesting how it works and you can make some great things!

[river_chaos]

That and it's easy on the hands.

I'm going on a trip this coming weekend with the art club

We're going to see a new art museum that opened up recently and check out all the different artworks on display! I'm excited!

[*Jess♥]

art is pretty hit and miss isn't it?

I personally like the pieces that are adventurous with different materials.

not so much a fan of the photography or standard portraits. art history for me is mind numbing.

Really depends on your interests. In all honesty I have trouble analyzing things. Well, we went to a different museum than what I thought we were originally going to, but it was fun. I thought you might've like the place, Ryuki. They have just about every culture covered in where we went to, including some of the Asian areas.

We also went to some galleries/exhibits that were going on that weekend. And the art teachers thought it would be nice to let us roam around a bloody mall Malls are deathtraps for me. It took all my restraining power to not empty my bank account there.

ha ha XD

yeah that museum sounds awesome! i loved the natural history museum in london. it's probably similar.

there they have real mummies.

Very random occurence today:

Me: *Sits down at table*.

Friend 1: How did we beat you here today?

Me: I got caught up in something.

F1: ....*raises eyebrow*

Me: What? You think I got caught up in a porn show or something?

Friend 2: *starts laughing his rear off* (He's the star actor on campus and will blow just about anything out of proportion)

Me: ??? Did he give blood today?

F1: *shrugs*

F2: *starts turning blue*

I don't know why, but everything I said after that made him laugh as though he'd never heard my country accent before. I would say something as random as "The sky's blue" and he'd bust out laughing.

Wrote this last night out of boredom:

Alkanphel walked back into the Sleeping Chamber nearly an hour after he left Rhiannon in there to rest. He had equipped one of the remaining Units and was now starting to feel drowsy just like Rhia had felt earlier.

It appears her hypothesis was correct, he mused approaching the altar he had slept on many times. Rhia was curled up on her side peacefully sleeping on the stone altar and Alkanphel couldn’t help but smile at the sight of her sleeping. She was adorable when she was sleeping like that, yet she also appeared vulnerable making him all the more protective of her. He shook his head at that thought. She was safe here on Sihla. There was nothing that could come and harm her here unless their enemies found the forgotten island, which was a very unlikely scenario.

Finally getting to the point where he had to yawn, he decided to sleep next to her on the altar. He didn’t care what she would think when she woke up at the moment, and just messing with her like that was an added bonus; it wasn’t very often that he got a chance to pull small pranks like this on her. He discovered last year that she didn’t like sharing her bed with anyone. Sitting on the side of the altar, he swung his legs over into the resting place and laid on his side facing Rhia. He laid his arm over her abdomen and pulled her close to where his head was now above her head. Hearing her breathing and steady heartbeat, Alkanphel closed his eyes and fell asleep for the rest of the night.

The next morning came and Alkanphel found himself fully rested for the first time in centuries. Rhia was still asleep and had apparently buried herself deeper into their embrace sometime while he slept; her face was now pressed against his chest close to his heart.

Should I wake her up? He thought, thinking about what would happen if he did.

“Hmm…” she stirred, starting to wake up on her own. “Fred’rich….you smell nice…”

He almost said “huh?” at that.

“Thanks for last night….I didn’t know making out would be so fun…”

WHAT!!!?

“Gotcha,” she looked up at him with a wide mischievous grin. She laughed as she hurried off the altar.

“Maaka Rhiannon,” he nearly yelled at her getting up and off the altar as well.

“Whoo! That was funny! And you totally fell for it!”

“Please don’t do that to me again,” he tried to control his voice, furious with himself for forgetting that Rhia was a master prankster herself.

“Okay, I’ll promise so long as you promise not to sleep next to me without my permission again.”

“Deal.”

I now know how my dad felt when he bought me glasses years ago. My wallet is now dead...I don't think I've ever spent that much in one go before.

[*Jess♥]

did you buy new glasses?

glasses are pretty much free here.

I don't know how it works where you are, are they not covered by your medical insurance?

or is there something separate like dental? I know that dental cover is separate.

[river_chaos]

Sadly, my dad works for a bunch of cheap rat bastards that gave us medical and dental insurance, but nothing to cover eye care. I had to pay over $100 dollars to get a new perscription and glasses.

[river_chaos]

Finally! I have a new pair of glasses!

[river_chaos]

I apparently freaked out the nerd club president last night when I decided to wear my yukata. Usually it's him freaking everyone out and it's very hard to freak someone like him out, so I'm kinda proud of myself for doing that.

[river_chaos]

I never thought it to be possible to have dry, shiny, and smooth hands all at once until today. I worked on one of my ceramics projects and was applying water-proofing slip onto it and trying to wash off the stuff from my hands made them shinier. My friends are never gonna let me forget this

[river_chaos]

Who in the hell goes and steals a person's electric razor while said person is in the shower?

Someone stole mine and whoever did it will get the full wrath of a Sakura-wannabe Argh! That sucks!

[*Jess♥]

that seems kinda creepy to me actually.

even if it was a girl who took it, it['s still very unhygienic.

[river_chaos]

I know, but tell that to some of the Hispanic/Porto Rican students here. Some of them really don't care where it's been most of the time so long as it's free (even if it's stolen). I know not all of them are like that, but some of the stuff I hear would probably make Agito Makishima's skin turn green.

[river_chaos]

Today has been.....extremely weird in some ways.

First my security software goes to crap, and I am going to have to download a completely new one thanks to a virus I got on MediaFire This just has to happen when I'm saving up for the upcomming Nerd Club trip....but I'm not all completely surprised as to where I got the virus from.

Next I get this random text from Dad saying "Blathering blatherskys!" Random as all get out, but I was surprised he remembered that show at all.

Been thinking about trying to get a job over the summer to help with college expenses. Major problem with that is the sucktaculor economy and my stupid autism. Tried before but got nowhere with it.

Bad economy+mental disability that everyone in America thinks is the equivilance of retardation=pain in the butt to find a job.

[*Jess♥]

I have a small suggestion that may help. since the autism spectrum includes aspergers, then maybe you can tell them that you have a form of aspergers. they might treat you better.

[river_chaos]

Slight problem with that: not many Americans know that aspergers falls under autism or even heard of aspergers. I apreciate the suggestion, but telling them I have aspergers might confuse people instead (especially dumb managers).

[*Jess♥]

doesn't that put the ball in your court though?

if they don't know what it is, then they absolutely cannot make any assumptions, they can't assume that you are stupid, and instead have to ask you how 'aspergers' effects your work, socialising etc.

if you make it easy for them, they can dismiss you easily. if you make it more difficult, they are forced to consider your other merits and come back to this issue. then they have to ask you about it.

trust me, I'm in a similar situation. I hate telling people I'm dyslexic because they immediately assume i need everything printed on blue paper or that i need special glasses etc. I try to explain that it's not that type of dyslexia, but they have already made their judgements. I wish i had a different term to use but unfortunately the only term that fits is dyslexia.
