April 3, 1998 -- So much for updating on time. It really isn't all my fault. Lightning hit the library tower at Binghamton and I couldn't get online. It sucked. I vaguely recall rocking back and forth in the corner of my room.
;) But here I am. More confused than ever. Brian just called the guys on his team. He doesn't have hockey this weekend, but he does have hockey NEXT weekend, during Easter break. Great. How am I going to get home Thursday night next week if I have to wait for my ride to finish a hockey game on Saturday night? Grrr... We've been discussing going home and picking up my car this weekend instead, then coming right back up, and leaving when we can leave. The problem with that is the car itself. It still has the hiccups and I don't think my parents took it to the dealer. I went with Brian tonight to see Lost in Space. See it, it rules. I loved it. It wasn't Party of Five in space, like I expected. It actually ruled. I really liked the little alien critter, Blart. It was adorable. Enough about movies. Let's talk about video games. Brian got StarCraft, the new Blizzard game. I'm a huge WarCraft fan, so I expected to love this game right away. And I do. There are three teams this time. The Terrans, the Protoss, and the Zerg. The Terrans are the standard little army men. The Protoss are "an advanced race of psionic warriors". Which just means they're damn cool. They don't build buildings, they WARP them in from other places, pre-built. The Zerg are by far the coolest, and the oddest race. They talk like the Borg, but they're just big bugs, really. They actually MUTATE into buildings. Way cool. Brian and I played a little multiplayer StarCraft last night. He thrashed me, of course. But it was fun. Do you know that I introduced Brian to WarCraft, and the first game he ever played against me, he beat me? I only beat him once, and it was when his sound was broken and he had no warning when I was attacking him. Go-go, Mighty Me...What a great Vic-tor-y!! On to better news. Not only does my apartment have spiders, it has ANTS too. Thank god the weather has warmed up enough that they can come in under my back door. They're like a small army, fighting their way across my kitchen floor. I sanitized the kitchen. Ants don't seem to like Formula 409, and I don't like ants, so this is good. Oh, I watched Pop-Up Video on VH1 the other day. I saw that Alanis Morisette video, Head over Feet...the one that's just her head? The pop-ups were great. "Alanis was born in [whatever] part of Canada."Gotta love it. Especially the War theme this entry ended up with. Maybe I'm just feeling a little violent since I found out that one of the remarkable people who loosely qualifies as an ex-boyfriend of mine was arrested for rape. I know how to pick 'em. Just for the record, we went out exactly 24 minutes. He asked me out, then less than a half hour later turned to me and said "Are we actually going out?" I responded "Hope not!" with a laugh. And he said "Good, do you think I should ask [so-and-so] out?" I know how to pick 'em...and how to avoid 'em afterwards. |
