this week has been outrageous, you guys. i had an awesome weekend, and loved life a lot on monday, and then my car broke down monday night and i didn't sleep hardly at all and the mechanic people were annoying and i was the crankiest girl in the world, for realsies. a nap & a taco & my amazing friends made that all about a frillion times better ♥ (and the car is fine now. the battery dropped dead for no apparent reason and one of my electricians fixed it for me today.)

my hp shirt ended up looking pretty rad. i went with the ron design, cos i loff him. i'm sad that i made it with acrylics and not fabric paint, but that was all i had in the house so oh well.

and of course i went & saw hbp with the local gang. lots of fun was had. i liked the movie for the most part- it kind of dragged in parts, but it's a boring book so that was ok. dumbledouche wasn't treated like a goodamn saint, which made me way happy. (i realized at one point that i respect fucking jon more than i respect dumbles. that's so wrong.) the kids are all pretty outstanding, and tom felton is way hot, and i spent a lot of the night humming songs by draco & the malfoys. all in all, i probably liked the movie a bit more than i liked the book. (and i can't complain about canon changes, because i actually had to ask people whether the christmas scene was canon because i could not remember. yeah, i'm pretty awesome.)

the real reason for this post: i'm going to nj/ny tomorrow night and getting back sunday night. i am way excited. i am not bringing my laptop. sheena & my parents & surf taco & gretchen & west side story & whatever else, hooray!

UGH being getaway_machine SUCKS and i would like to go back to being me now!! SECOND PLACE IS THE FIRST LOSER AND I AM NOT OKAY WITH THAT. HMPH.

other things that suck: feelings; fic; fic about feelings; fic deadlines; DO WE SEE WHERE I AM GOING WITH THIS; and also shopping for stupid boys and winter and people who fucking rewrite led zeppelin songs so that they are about fucking christmas, AS IF I DIDN'T HATE CHRISTMAS MUSIC ENOUGH ALREADY. HERE IS THE ORIGINAL, because i am disgusted at the thought of people thinking it is okay to bastardize classic rock songs. IT IS NOT OKAY.

also, AS I SUSPECTED, "tom sawyer" is by rush and NOT blue oyster cult, so FUCK YOU two-for-tuesdays! you are filled with LIES.

oh, and i hate these shoes. except by "hate" i mean "covet" :(
