Well, I survived the family vacation to Six Flags: Kentucky Kingdom. It was fun. Naturally, I got burnt, but like I was telling Nikki, I think that’s just a given for me. We spent most of the time in the water park.They had a water roller coaster that was a lot of fun. I went on it twice, and then we spent a lot of time at the wave pool. Those things got pretty intense the further in and closer to the middle you were. But it was a blast.

I think my computer liked my absence as well. It had a whole two days off. It’s weird but right before I left it was going really fast, but I think that has more to do with the wireless router than my actual computer. I’m not sure why it does like that, but I wish the Internet would go fast all of the time. Oh, well, it’s still better than the old computer. That thing is like a snail.

I feel like I’ve been dropped into the middle of a Garth Brooks songs. The thunder rolls and the lightning strikes. Not nearly as appealing as the song, let me tell you. It’s been like this since yesterday. In town in front of my mom’s apartment, two phone poles were blown over and a truck was caught in the wires. Bart had to call 911. It was insanity. It makes me nervous. If I was smart, I’d just sleep through it all like Blaine did.

On a completely different topic, I’m beginning to wish that when I ordered my computer I’d got more computer memory. I got 1gb, which is better than the old computer because it was running 512mb, but I usually have 3 or 4 main programs running on my computer at a time, and they’re iTunes, FireFox, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Dreamweaver, and between the 4 of them, it just drains the memory. I don’t know if I could just upgrade to more memory or not, but at least I’ll know better next time.

I think I’m going through some weird obsessive phase lately. The other day I cleaned up all of my memorable entries on livejournal. When I started reading a book, I can’t stop until I’m finished, and if I have to go stop and sleep, I get right back to what I was doing as soon as I’m up. Now I’m working on going through my favorites. That probably doesn’t sound like much, except I have a vast number of websites bookmarked. Some of them I can’t even remember why I bookmarked them. I must have had some reason for doing so at the time.

I found some cute stuff in my “stores” bookmarks. I had some wedding dresses favorited, and I guess I can understand why. There was one with this corset top and flowing skirt that was really pretty. I’m pretty sure that I was going to use it as a reference picture for one of my stories. Which story, though, I’m not exactly sure.

I still have a lot of stuff to go through, but I guess it’s necessary. There’s no sense in letting a bunch of junk pile up, computer or not. I really need to find a job, though. This crazy obsessiveness is, well, crazy.
