Well, the Black Event, also known as my birthday, has come and went. I survived. It does kind of kill me to admit that I’m now 25, but I guess that’s just part of life.
We had seven layer salad and manicotti and cake and ice-cream on Thursday night so that Allyson could come. She brought along her friend Gail and Blaine brought along Cody, but it was nice. I got $90 – $40 from my grandparents and $50 from Bart – and my mom got me some perfume and lotion from Victoria’s Secret. It’s called Pink, and it’s fruity scented. I think it smells kind of like cotton candy, which is yummy, so I love it. I kind of had a feeling that was what she was going to get me because I was with her twice and told her I liked it both times.
My grandma’s birthday is coming up next. I have no idea what to get her, and she wasn’t very forthcoming about what she wanted. My mom called and wanted to know what we should have for dinner for her, and tacos was her first suggestion. Then my mom called back later and said she was going to make potato soup instead. Just for future reference, I kind of hate potato soup. I’m considering looking up some Mexican recipes, and taking it upon myself to cook instead. I haven’t spoken to my mom about it yet, and I guess it really depends on how ambitious I feel. I’m kind of lacking in the cooking skills. I’m great with baking, but I can’t really remember the last time I cooked an actual meal that didn’t originate from a box. Pathetic.

I’m all caught up with Heroes. I’m not entirely sure how I felt about season two. I stopped watching it last year because it started out so slow, and it did pick up toward the end, but I’m not sure how I felt about the way the season ended.
I really need to go to the store and buy some blank discs. I have three flash memory sticks that I need to back up on disc before I can clear them off. I have a bunch of old stuff from school on them, and I’ll need at least three discs to back it all up. It’s amazing how that stuff adds up.
I’m hoping to get some money for my birthday. Then I can get my discs and maybe a new outfit or something. I’m not expecting much, though.
I went out for lunch with my grandparents today, and I ate too much. The portion sizes were ridiculous. I came home with a box of food – looks like I know what I’m having for dinner tonight. Right now, I’m tired and I have a headache, so I think I’m going to take a short nap before I start working on a label for work.

Whew, I’m trying to play catch up with watching Heroes. I missed out on about the last half of the second season last year because I was busy writing for NaNoWriMo. I haven’t decided if I’m going to do it again this year, but I have a feeling if I do, then I’m going to be behind on several shows pretty fast.
My mom, sister and Tori stopped by earlier. They went shopping. No surprise there. There was a show on about a couple that has sextuplets, and we were trying to fathom having that many babies all at once. It would be such a huge job. I mean, even if they had a Bob stroller with the two seats, that still wouldn’t be enough. I have seen the three seater kinds of strollers, but I think they’d still be hard to come by. I think about trying to deal with six of Tori, and there’s no way. I couldn’t deal, and she’s not even here all the time. Crazy.

Tori and I did some baking today. We made chocolate chip cookies. She absolutely loves to help. She gets to pour all of the ingredients into the mixing bowl. Then she holds on with me while we use the mixer. As much as I enjoy it, though, it’s such a long process. Not that actual cookie dough making, but putting heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the cookie sheets. It just takes a while, but I suppose it worth it in the end. Yummy chocolatey goodness.
On the other hand, I’m having a horrible acne breakout. I hate how those spring up. Last week, I was free and clear. This week not so much. It just to pop up right before I went to renew my driver’s license, which was ridiculous in it’s own right. I had to pay $19! Ugh.
Season four of Supernatural premiered last night. I loved every second of it, and I cannot wait for me. I don’t know that I can say much more than that.

Ugh. I’m having one of those days where I just feel gross. It doesn’t help that I’m tired. My sleep is all kinds of messed up. Even when I go to bed late and wake up early, I can’t seem to get myself to go to bed early the next night. I think it’s just impossible for me to go to bed early. I’m just a night person by nature, and I don’t know if it can be fixed. I’m starving right now, and I want something sweet, which is counterproductive to the fact I want to lose wait. I need to find me some energy, start exercising and find the best fat burner out there and get to work on losing weight. However, I’m always stumped at the finding energy part of the plan. Blah. It’s just been a very bland day. I’m just ready for Supernatural because I’ve been looking forward to it all week.
