I'm getting a new cell phone! Ah I'm so excited. Well it's not really new, it's my dad's old Razor, but I don't think he used it for very long and the only reason he's not using it anymore is because he always has to get the newest technology so he got an iPhone like the day it came out. But yeah, so that means I get his old phone. I've only ever had two cell phones and the only reason I got a new one (back I think at the end of 9th grade, so 3 years ago) was because he got it free when he got my mom a new phone for her birthday, so it wasn't very good. It'll be nice having a phone I actually like. I've wanted a new one for like a year but I didn't want to ask for one because I didn't really need a new one, so I felt guilty for asking.

Camping is only a week away! I'm excited for it. And we're leaving for school in only 23 days! More until orientation, but at least driving up there will give me things to do. I've kind of run out of things to do. I watched all the TV shows I wanted to start and there aren't any others I really want to check out. I have a few movies I could watch, but I really don't feel like watching any movies. There's absolutely nothing on TV these days. There are a few books I left to read until this summer, but I also don't feel like reading. I guess it's not so much that there isn't anything to do as I'm being difficult and just don't feel like doing any of my options. I'll probably be longing for this boredom and lack of things to do when school starts and I have a million things to do, but for now I'm just bored and would really like summer to end.

Actually I've kind of gotten the urge to watch some DVDs I haven't watched in awhile. Maybe marathon all three seasons of Arrested Development? Haven't done that in like a year. Or season 3 of Dawson's Creek? I haven't watched that in forever and kind of got the urge. Whatever, I'll find something to do.

Ha! I've totally gotten my dad into The Office now (well my mom too, but I'm more impressed that I got my dad into it). Because both my parents loved the British version, but they've only seen random episodes of the U.S. version and they just thought it was pretty good, but nowhere near as great. But then I convinced them to watch Casino Night on Thursday and then both of them would stop when they walked through the family room when I was watching my DVDs and watch like half an episode and then go on with whatever they were doing, and last night my dad asked if they could watch the first disc of my DVDs since I was done with it, and now every time my dad is in the same room as me, he tells me how much better a show The Office is than he originally gave it credit for. So, yay! :D

Anyways, I finished my DVDs. Spoilers I guess for some extras on the DVD. )

Ah, 4 days until The Office season 3 premiere! This week is going to go by so slowly.

So, my father's apparently decided that it'd be a really good idea to plug his guitar into his amp while he practices. (Which is of course right when I'm trying to do my math homework.)

Yeah. I don't know.

Dude, I love the Wicked soundtrack so much. mm, I love musicals. And now I also found that they have an original cast soundtrack of Urinetown on Amazon.com, and ah. I so have the urge to get it. I think I'll wait a little, though.

Actually scratch the whole "I think I'll wait..." part, because I totally just checked and they have it on Target.com, and I still have that $20 gift certificate to Target Zi got me for my birthday, and it's only $17.98 with shipping and handling and all that... so, yeah. No willpower.

Anyways. iPod situation resolved! My dad may have ended up getting it for me if I had patience and such, but last night I was arguing with my mother about it (well it didn't start out as an argument, but she wasn't listening to anything I was saying and before I knew it I was really angry) and I was just getting so frustrated and then she left to go to this meeting and I am so freaking obsessive and once I get something into my head I can't get it out and I just had to figure something out and so I checked things out and decided that I could buy the $289.99 iPod video and I'd have $21 and change left which would be enough to get me buy on gas for a month and a half (since I just refilled my tank like Tuesday) and then it would be Easter and my parents could add some more money because it's a holiday and part of our argument before that was that my parents won't just get me things for whenever I want, but for holidays and my birthday and such. So, yeah. And I also asked my mom and she said I can add money onto my visabuxx card, and I have like $90 so I could add that and use it for gas. So, everything's solved.

Of course then when my dad came home my mom told him and he was all "You didn't get it already, did you?" and I was all "...yeah?" and he was all "But I said I'd get it for you!" And I pointed out that he never really said yes, but he claimed he did, but I said I was impatient anyways, and in any case I could cancel the order or he could just add $289.99 back onto my visabuxx card. And anyways he said that this ends up being less work for him. So, yeah.

Lastly, please do this?

Anyways, now I get to study for a 6 chapter Euro test. Joy.

So, I think my father said yes about me getting a new iPod? It wasn't ever explicitely stated, but I think it was implied. We kept going around in circles with our conversation. He'd be all "I'm not getting you one tonight" and I'd be all "...I'm not asking for one now. I just want to know if I will be able to get one sometime." and he'd be all "The silver one should be enough for right now" and I'd be all "...yes. But. In the future." and he'd be all "Sometime" and I'd be all "...but do you have any idea of when?" and then he'd be all "I'm not getting you one tonight" and it'd continue like that over and over again. sigh.

Anyways. Today I had my junior counseling. I ramble on too long about something no one cares about. )

Um, lastly. Something. Oh yeah! I got my Wicked soundtrack today! I haven't listened to it yet since I just got home and am burning it to my computer now, but I will.
