So, hey, it's been a good day.

We got to my grandpa's house kind of late, because we took longer than expected loading the car, and then we had to turn around like 20 minutes down the road because we'd forgotten something. Bleh!

We opened gifts pretty soon after me and my parents arrived, and I got exciting stuff. :D I have a 1-year membership in AAA now, so I'll be safe on the road, should anything happen. I also got the MAMMOTH HARD DRIVE OF DOOM! ::nosebleed:: It's 200GB, 7200rpm, so my mp3/video server might actually get built soonish! Maybe then, I can have an anime night and show all the newer anime I've downloaded, like Naruto!

I also got a cute sleepshirt, which I'm wearing now, a little glass earring box from Tiffany's, and a leather wallet. Also, people seemed happy with what I got them today, too, and that's always a nice feeling for me. :)

Dinner was low-key, but nice, and my grandpa's big ham came out tasty as ever. Lots of random conversation. I shot some pool with my mom and dad, and lordy, I've gotten worse at it. I only played maybe once last year, and that was probably because I had a free coupon at The Break. I think I just need to play more often. Any takers? :)

So, yeah, now I'm sitting here watching the terebi and messing around on the computer, per my usual. Except that my feet are cold. ;p And there's no digital cable guide in here, so I'm reduced to ::gasp:: NORMAL CHANNEL SURFING. I have no idea what channels are what. My nose has been hyper-sensitive all day; smoke and other random smells have been making me sneeze. My ma thinks I'm getting sick, but I'd better not be, or I'll be pretty pissed.

UGH. Please go away, Jimmy Kimmel. And stop having cool guests on your show. I can't tolerate the idea of you getting to be in the same *room* with people like Hal Sparks, much less interviewing them and occasionally making snide remarks towards them.

It sounds like my dad and I are going to see a movie tomorrow--I'm not sure what, though. I'm thinking Big Fish or Cold Mountain. My dad mentioned Paycheck, which might be interesting, but I've had enough of Ben Affleck for the next century or so. Geh, I'm not even sure what's out right now--the opening day of RotK kind of overshadowed everything for the last week or so. ::laughs::

DUDE. Superman II is on Sci-Fi. Son of Jor-El, KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!! :O

Anyway, I'm out of things to blather about for the moment.

I hope you all had a wonderful day!! :D

If only you could throw 200GB up in the air and have it shower over you like money would. However, it does not mean that I cannot still drool over it!

But, then everyone would swarm around me and steal all my GB, and I'd only manage to grab 5 or so before it was all gone. It'd be like one of Scrooge McDuck's nightmares. ::rotfl::

But seriously, if I get my server going, you may yet reap some of the benefits of my 1337 storage power! :O
