Gotta remember to do that drabble alphabet meme...
So, my week. Last week was my long break when I go up to my hometown, but I delayed the trip a day because it was my dad's birthday. We went to a movie and then I bought everyone dinner at the Rainforest Cafe in the MOA. That's something I won't be doing often... lucky I still had some holiday pay left... @_@
I spent Thursday through Sunday morning up north, where I caught a cold from my best friend's mom. Ughness. So I've been sick the past few days, but I think today will be the last bad day, I should be feeling better starting tomorrow. Too bad I'm working these three nights. x_x I HATE having to work when I'm sick, because of the way I get colds - my eyes water, which is a royal pain, and I have this harsh cough that sounds horrible. I've always coughed that way ever since I had bronchitis in elementary school, so it doesn't worry me, but every time I get it I have to deal with all the "Oh my god! Are you okay??" Yes, I know it sounds awful. It's just the way I cough. Leemee lone. -_-
Anyway, I got back to the bookstore in my hometown's mall and picked up the manga I'd been wanting since my last trip - Someday's Dreamers and the first couple volumes of Death Note. I've started Someday's Dreamers... I think I like the anime better.
Had to tell my best friend about the heart medication I've been taking, and man, I haven't seen such a stricken face on her since the day she thought I'd drowned in the lake. I did my best to act like it was no big deal, but she was worried. :\ I feel bad about that... she's been having a rough time of things for a long while and I'm one of the few constants in her life, it sucks to weaken that image of being a solid dependable rock. :(
Speaking of the medication, it's almost gone, so I made an appointment to see my doctor next week. I'm not sure if I want to keep taking this stuff... I'm not confident it's really making that much of a difference anymore. My body doesn't like to be forced to behave, it likes to rebel. The pills run out a couple days before my appointment so we'll see if there's a significant difference between meds and no meds.
I came back early Sunday for a Detour meeting. The drabble contest was announced, and once we got past the "WTF is a drabble?" reaction the response was positive. xD Still trying to dig up another judge, but there are a few people on the fanfic panel I can ask if I can't find someone on my own. The "Iron Pen" name is probably going to stay, I wasn't able to come up with anything better. Still gotta decide on a prize.
I finally found out who![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rhythmellon is, and it turned out he's someone I've seen around a lot and talked to several times without ever making the connection. Isn't that the worst? ^^;; Online-offline friendships can be weird like that. I definitely won't forget from now on! Got some CDs from him in exchange for mine, I haven't had a chance to listen to them yet but I have a feeling I'll have some great new writing music. :)
After the meeting was the Great PS2 Adventure. I'd finally made up my mind to get DDR, and since the price of PS2s recently went down a bit it seemed like the perfect time. Unfortunately it was also the perfect time for a lot of other people. All the big box stores in my hometown were out, and when I got back to the cities I had to go to a few Targets before I finally got my hands on one. And then I had to go back later for memory cards, since I totally spaced that I'd need one. -_- This is my first video game system since the 8-bit Nintendo, how about that? xD Haha...
Anyway, so now I have DDR Supernova. Too bad I'm too sick with this cold to feel like playing. ;_;

:\ My brother in law got it from me for Christmas and his reaction was 'oh..well...I don't like any of the songs' when he'd had a chance to play it and so I'm all 'rowr' plus I took my MAX over but it dissapeared and he's not actually gotten around to looking for it and bringing it or my measuring cup back.
