I only have 55 minutes to truthfully say it's my birthday today. So here it is. It's my birthday today. It's my birthday today! It's my birthday today!!! It's my birthday today!!! I'm 26 hooray! I got the DVD Bolt, a knitted scarf, and the Sims 3 strategy guide, and I went on a picnic with my mom and brother!
Okay, this is definitely the most obnoxious post I've ever made. Still my birthday though, I'm allowed to annoy people!
It's my birthday today!

I had this dream last night that was pretty neat.
I dreamt I was one of those kids from the Chronicles of Narnia-I think I was Susan. The dream started off with us escaping from Freddy Krueger. Eventually I developed saint-like powers and was able to slay him with a magical sword. Or ward him off, at least. The awesome goodness of my powers were like acid to him.
Then somehow we ended up trapped in a labyrinth of junk. It was a maze made up from piles upon piles of books, items, and furniture. We had to solve all sorts of puzzles to find our way through it. At one point I climbed onto a pile and was faced with my own reflection. I knew I had to go through that way so I picked up a book and read it aloud. While I read it, my reflection climbed out of the mirror. I threw her off the pile, and then I was able to go forward. At some points I would climb and see my reflection across the room doing something else and then I would have to do what my reflection did once I got over there.
Some places I could only get to by climbing onto furniture and then waiting for someone to come and move the furniture with me on it. We got to one area where we all had to climb up a rope but there was nothing up there. I moved over to Lucy's rope and there was an opening in the top. At that point we all separated. I climbed up into the opening (I had to move a ton of stuff out of the way) and then pulled myself up. I came out on a tunnel made of fabric overlooking a golf course. I could go left where the tunnel was covered, or I could go right where anyone could see me because it was open. I had just solved a puzzle that told me to go left, so I went that way.
I ended up in a gigantic lobby made up of people waiting to enter the labyrinth. I tried to go up the escalator, but the people there sent me back and I ended up back where I started. So I climbed up the rope and into the tunnel again and went right instead of left. I ended up in a pond overlooking a closed in glass pathway and I saw the other three walking in the pathway. I waved at them and they waved back and then they all held their noses and made gestures like they were swimming.
I kept on going and came to the golf course I saw earlier except I was not overlooking it, I was right there. There was a stream there, and I knew if the golfers saw me I would get sent back, so I jumped in the stream and swam, taking the hint from the others.
It was very shallow so I couldn't go completely under the water, but everyone who saw me thought I was a dolphin, and I got through unscathed. I ended up going over a rope bridge and ended up in a room where I was congratulated for making it through the labyrinth and was given a trophy. I then reunited with the other 3 Narnia kids and we all hugged and laughed. I have no idea what this dream meant, but as my dreams go, it was unusually imaginative. Cool, huh?

My mom said she'd take me to the library, so I said "How about Beacock? We haven't been there for a while." My mom started laughing. It turned out she thought I said "How about Detox?" Yeah, we haven't been there for a while either. xD

It was this one! Awesome, right? Now my three year old niece isn't allowed in my bedroom because her mom thinks she'll have nightmares. I knew I made the right choice. :p I love the Joker. I was so sad when Heath Ledger died. How horrible. I do love my poster though. It's like I'm keeping Heath alive on my wall!
I just joined a bunch of communities. Customers_suck, wtf_inc, bad_service, and a few others. I can't wait to get in there and start making friends! :D

I was opening my pantry door when I noticed an odd shadow on the wall. Actually, more like 5000 odd shadows. Turns out there were about a million spiders on the door. A couple were big, but most were tiny. They must have just bred. As a shower gift, I got my mom to swipe them all up with a kleenex and dump them outside. Happy vacation, spiders!
I forgot to mention, Shannon emailed me and said he's been busy but we'll get together and do something in July. I should email him back.

It's my birthday today! I got a yummy cake with strawberries, an Indiana Jones Mr. Potato Head (Idaho Spuds), and the Indiana Jones DVD collection. We all went to the Mandarin for dinner, crammed ourselves with buffet food, and then came home. I'm 25 today. Blah.
My niece made me a homemade birthday card with glitter and cutouts and that kind of stuff. She also gave me a flower. It was pretty sweet. She's 3. Not really much else to say. I love lime sherbet!

I was at the library and I got this really interesting graphic novel, Maus. It's about the holocaust featuring the Jews as mice and cats as Nazis. It was made by a guy who wanted to tell the story about his parents in the holocaust, but he was a cartoonist, not a writer. So he made this book from various interviews with his father. It's a really good book. The author is named Art Spiegelman. I'm not finished it yet, but it won a pulitzer.
My mom is coming home from B.C. in two days. I have to clean the kitchen tomorrow so she comes home to a nice clean kitchen. Blegh...
