Geek food

Mum, dad and I all went out for Greek food (almost wrote geek) for dinner tonight. OMG! So yummy! I had my first bite of lamb in years and I still don't like it, even though the seasoning/sauce was divine.

Today I cleaned and organized my room. I bought a bunch of new boxes to put my books in, so they're no longer scattered to the four winds around my room. I'm sure I'll find more around my room though. My room isn't done yet, I still have to organize some stuff and pick out some stuff for give away, but other than that it's a lot better than it was (meaning I can see my floor now).

My mum and I need a new car. The one we have is a 1991 Subaru and it really is a great car, but when we took it in for servicing last week it needs over $3,000 worth of repairs. More than the car is worth, so we need to figure something out. We can't afford the repairs and we can't afford a new/used car. We're going to do our homework and see what's available and dad is going to call a couple people he knows that restores cars to see if they have any ideas/leads. Our only real option is to get a loan from the bank, but mum would never get approved (they'd probably just laugh at her and then call the cops :P ) and I'm on shaky enough ground as it is. Still they may give one to me as long as I have a co-signer.

Tomorrow [livejournal.com profile] gremmie_goo and I start our French class. It should be fun and I'm looking forward to it, since I haven't taken French since grade 8. I don't have the 'I hate school' mentality holding me back, so I'm willing to learn. In honour of our new course, Goo wanted French Conan O'Brian icons from his show last week.

I'm in love with Jensen Ackles ass freckles. I just love them to death. I want to hunt them down on set and just yell at him "I LOVE YOUR FRECKLES AND SLEEP WITH ME!" Think he'll go for it?

What's been going on in my life. Not a hell of a lot, just a lot of stressful and depressing and exciting things.

We need a new car. Unfortunately our little 1991 Subaru doesn't agree with my mum. The car itself is fine, but it's mum's knee. She's in agony. She's not getting better she's getting worse. It's getting to the point where she can't walk or drive. It's terrible. The pain is putting a major drain on her mentally and physically. Since the car is a standard she has to use the clutch with her bad knee. She hates driving and dad won't let us use his car for more than a few days (it's an automatic) before he wants it back. He wanted his car back the last time because he missed having AC. I'm not kidding.

LMFAO Sam just glued Dean's hand to a beer bottle. XD Sorry, watching reruns of Supernatural as I type this up.

Anyhoo, the drugs she was on did absolutely nothing and her doctor is out of town for the week. She's been to the clinics ect and no one has a clue on what to do. Her doctor doesn't really seem to realize the amount of pain she's in and doesn't really do anything or care. She just brushes it off most of the time, so mum needs to look for a new doctor. She doesn't want to, but no one is giving her results or better care. If pills don't help then a shot or something. We don't know the results of her back x-rays yet because of her doc being out of town right now, but maybe that'll yield some better results.

I don't know. The whole situation is just so frustrating. There's nothing I can do about it. I take the bus most of the time anyway, but driving for her is just become so painful. There's no bus route near her work, so she has to drive. We looked through the classifieds in the paper and the cheapest standard that's just a basic little car was $2000. No chance of us getting that money any time soon. I guess we could sell the car, I'm not sure. The whole situation is just frustrating.

Mum told me to see if I could get approved for a Yaris. They have a special deals on 2006 modles for students. Couple of problems: a) don't have the money b) I don't have a lisence. LOL How can I get a car without one?

Work has been... not the greatest. Nothing customer wise or anything like that, it's just since the assistant manager who basically ran our store left our manager has no clue what she's doing now. Things are pretty stressful there and all we can do is laugh and shake our heads at it.

Kingdom Hearts )

As my last entry showed the raccoons are still around. They're a blast to watch just roll around out there. They make their rounds through the neighbourhood and stop in our backyard to play. I guess their den must be near here because they have this whole route they follow.

They still want to come in and they do when we have the door open, but then we shoo them out. Sorry, guys no steak here. Or whatever they eat. One of the families sent a baby up the apple tree to the bird feeder to knock peanuts down to the rest. Cunning buggers, aren't they?

Registration for school is in a few days. I'm nervous but excited. I just don't know what days I'm going to need to book off from work yet. I won't be making as much money, which worries me because we're not really getting by even now. I told mum I wouldn't go to school this year, but she said no I have to. She just feels so bad about our whole situation and just wants me to get going. I'm just hoping dad can help out. I have to get some new school supplies and a new pair of pants for work, I'm hoping he'd spot me $100 for stuff.

Superman Returns )

Coda and her post attack-ness... yeah. :P )

My winky (Eowyn) just came in!!! :D *goes to cuddle with her*

[eta] forgot to say that for you Starbucks latte lovers we got our shipment of Pumpkin Spice, they'll be back at the end of the month! :)
