So, I thought I had the X Games all figured out, but last night Tiffany told me all of a sudden that she doesn't want to go to the second date anymore (apparently she's lost interest in skateboarding over the past 2 years. Though, I'm not exactly sure why she offered to go if she's lost interest. I mean, what exactly did she think would happen at Skateboarding Best Trick?). And I know Annie can't go already, and Lulu probably won't be able to, and that leaves me screwed, because I don't know anyone else who'd be at all interested in going, and my mom won't let me go alone. I'd rather not go alone, really. [sigh] I asked Lulu about it again and she said she'd check, but she probably won't be able to go. gah. I really don't want to have to miss this. X Games is (sadly) one of the best parts of my year, and I was so excited to be able to go to both Vert Skate and Skate Best Trick. I mean, even going to one day of X Games is better than nothing, but... I really wanted to be able to go to Best Trick as well. sigh. I hope Lulu can go, even though I'm not counting on it.
Edit: Well, Lulu can't go, but I explained the whole situation to my mom, and she asked me what time the event was (3:30-4:30) and she told me she'd go with me. I love my mom. She said she didn't mind as long as we'd be back before 7 (which we will, if it ends at 4:30ish) so she could have a normal Saturday night with my dad, eating Mexican food and watching movies. So yay, I still get to go. :D My mom is the best mother in the history of ever.

Anyways, new userinfo. It's pretty plain, but... I like it. I think it looks all right. When I was making the lists of shows and ships, I kept forgetting about QAF for some reason, which is why both it and Brian/Justin are so low on the lists. blah. I don't care enough to redo it, though.

Out of the two seasons of Dead Like Me I've been downloading the past few days, guess which one finished? Not season 1, of course. That would be too simple and would make me far too happy. No, season 2 finished sometime last night. sigh. Season 1 is at, like, 89%. I'm hoping it'll finish sometime early tonight so I'll be able to watch some episodes. That would rock.


They've appeared every summer for about 2 years, now. It's cool, except for the part where... well, two years ago I had two rabbits and we'd let them out into the courtyard to run around and play (it's a pretty small enclosed area and we could keep an eye on them pretty well). And we hadn't seen the bobcats yet, but one afternoon my mom was going to put them back in their cage, and she could only find one of them. The other was gone. And the gate to the courtyard hadn't been opened at all, and they're not very adventurous anyways so it's unlikely he would've left the courtyard, and then we saw the bobcats in our backyard a few days later, and... you can probably figure out what happened to that rabbit. ...um, but other than eating one of my bunnies, the bobcats are fun to have. And we no longer have bunnies (the other rabbit was old and having major health problems that couldn't be reversed and was suffering, so we had him put to sleep last fall), and we're not about to take the birds outside to play, so... it's ok now. Except for the part where last summer they left random parts of various dead animals all over my backyard. Um, yes. A picture!


Ok, not the best shot. There were two play-fighting each other and another just lounging about, but my mom pulled up the blinds and they saw/heard and didn't like it, so they scampered off. Haven't seen them since then. I'll take more pictures of them next time they come out.


The Body (BTVS season 5 episode) was on today, so I watched it. Man, do I love that episode. It's not my favorite episode (that would be Becoming Part 2), but it definitely makes me tear up more than any other episode. It's so brilliantly done. Forever aired after it, but I didn't feel like watching it as much.

Tagged by unrehearsed_: Post your very first icon that you made (if you have it, if you don't, the OLDEST one that you have) along with your newest icon. This will allow you to show how you have improved in iconing skills and tag five friends to see how they have improved.

Unfortunately, I started making graphics on this one computer that got totally fucked up and eventually died last October and then I got the one I have now, so I only have icons on here from then onward. Well, I have a few from last summer that I kept and saved. Most of the rest were in my photobucket account, but I deleted them because they were shitty. I now regret that, because it would be so fun to look back on my old, crappy icons, but oh well. This is the best I can do:


Even though they're pretty recent, they're still wonderfully crappy. :)

And my most recent icons:


There's this one I made a few days ago for an icon challenge that I really like, but it's anonymous and all so I can't post it until voting's over, and... voting's not even up yet. sigh. Oh well.

While I do not have very old icons, I do have some very old blends/graphics I made 2 years ago. Craaazy. So, here are some of the crappier ones:
One of the very first blends I ever made. This one's more like 2 1/2 years ago, actually, about half a year after I first started making graphics.
This one made right after the SP blend. So, another that's actually 2 1/2 years old.
A Felicity blend. This I made for a blend challenge two years ago. I entered loads of blend challenges the summer before 9th grade. But geez, hi, ANTI-ALIAS IS YOUR FRIEND.
A Buffy blend. Another for a blend challenge. I think this one might have actually won something. I like the concept, but the execution is crap.
Another Buffy blend. Last one. This was the very first blend I submitted to a blend challenge. I was actually pretty proud of it at the time.

All right, I suppose that's enough. I tag... uh, well, this meme has been going around for awhile and I don't remember who's done it and who hasn't, so... if you haven't done it yet, go ahead. :)

Finally, Arrested Development is rerunning on FOX from 8pm-10pm. It's a hilarious show, so you really should check it out if you haven't. It needs all the viewers it can get. In addition, Veronica Mars is reairing on CBS from 8pm-10pm with the pilot episode and then the 10th episode (which is one of my absolute favorites of the series). So, if you haven't watched that, definitely check it out. I think you can watch the 1st and then the 10th without being too totally confused. If you haven't watched either, well... I don't know. Check out the pilot of VM and then the second two episodes of Arrested Development, or something. They're both awesome shows, though, and need more viewers.
