Last night I saw Godzilla.

Here's what I went in thinking: There is no way they can ruin Godzilla. Ever. I'll love this movie no matter WHAT they do. It will be fantastic. Bad acting is supposed to be part of a Godzilla movie. It's required. Cheesy plots are to be expected. All that matters is the lizard. And the radiation. And over a million people screaming in terror. And the entire goverment of [insert name of country being stomped by Godzilla here] pulling out the big guns to blast it!!!

What I came out thinking: WAAAAHOOOO!!! I love radiation!!!!

Okay, maybe not exactly that. But I loved the movie. Not even despite the bad acting as much as BECAUSE of the bad acting. The plot? Big Lizard, Big Apple, Big Trouble.

No, that wasn't a slogan.

I also played in the very short, very violent storm that passed over my speck of the world. I got drenched. Then I tried to hug Brian. He wouldn't let little ol' sopping wet me give him a hug.

Ah...joy. To have a movie live up to expectations.

In other news...forgive me for not updating in forever!! I had finals, then I had to move back here. Then my parents went to Florida! I was busy.

But I'm okay now. I've been productive. I went to the chiropractor...oh I feel better. Much better. I had no idea how much my back was actually bothering me until he fixed it.

I got my Gramma on the internet. She had mentioned to my mother she might like to try out this whole online thing. So mom packed up our old 486, swapped it with Gramma's 486 (which doesn't have a modem or a CD-ROM), and Mom, Brian and I signed her up for AOL. I don't know if she's been online yet, but she can now, if she wants. She has a few friends who have gotten onto the 'infobahn' (forgive the speeling...) and she's ready to speed along on her 486 with a 14.4...

You've got to feel a little bad. I know I do. And I'm not all that much better off.

My mother graduated from Nassau Community College with a 4.0 average. There's some kind of 'something cum laude' or so in there, but I couldn't tell ya without looking it up. I've very very proud of her. Everyone send my mother e-mail and congradulate her!! I'll post the pics of her in her cap and gown when I get them developed.

I got my sister a web page on Geocities. AOL was giving me a difficult time so I shot it. :::snicker::: She doesn't have a counter or any content yet, but go there and make her happy. I designed it. I am proud. It's better than the first one I made her. The banners from my page are only there to hold the places for her graphics, when I make them. When she decides what they should be. The navigation will be better.

I am tired. It is 4am. I have to wake up in the morning and make bacon and eggs with the four high school juniors/seniors sleeping in my living room. It will be fun.

G'night! I swear, I'll write more often now that I've settled back into life at home. ;)
