   About the trip
Long post, you've been warrned...

So like I said, been home for about the past 6 days. I had a blast, and it was SO good to see all the pets again. Buttons followed me around like my shadow. Every night waking me up to be sure I was there to pet her. Although one night the pets got their revenge.

It was the night before I was suppose to go and sit in Autumn's class with her. I had to get up around 7:40ish so I would be ready in time. Well, ended up going to bed around midnight because I was hanging out with father person and watching TV. (This was Thr. night by the way) Went to bed only to be awoken at 4am to the dogs whinning. I started to sit up but I guess I fell back to sleep because next thing I know I was waking up again. It was quiet for awhile then I heard them start to whimper so I got out of bed, clock said it was just going on 5am. Egor had to go potty, so I clipped both their leashes on them and let them outside.

Waited a bit then let them back inside, only they were both stuck on something and couldn't get into the door. So off I went to find a michmatched pair of flipflops. Went outside in the freezing cold, started to walk down to find out what the leashes were tangled on when they both ran to the door. -_- Either they weren't really stuck or had gotten themselves free while I had taken so long to find my flipflops. So inside we went and they settled down to go back to sleep, and so did I.

I was all cuddly and snuggly in my warm bed when. MERRRRRRRROOOOOW!! -_- Cat was hungry. So I got up and fed her. Went back into bed and was just about to fall asleep when: MERRRRRRRRRRRROWWW! This time she lead me to the front door wanted to go outside. It was still dark out, we don't let her out after dark because the coydogs have been know to kill and eat pet cats. With her being so old and her hips being bad I don't want to risk it. So told her no and went back to bed. She didn't want no as an answer. She followed me back to the bedroom and stood there and gave me her 'death meow' until I got back out of bed, picked her up, and put her down cellar, leaving the door open so she could come back upstairs when she was done with her litter box. She got the hint and by 6:00am I finally got to go back to sleep.

So went to Autumn's class with her. I was so tired from the night before and it was a Music class. The teacher was playing relaxing music and I just wanted to fall asleep, took all my willpower not to. We even stopped at the library and I said hello to my old boss Rose. She was happy to see me and turns out none of the student workers from last year came back and that a couple of the people she ended up hiring couldn't read or write. O_o Poor Rose.

After class Autumn and I went to a music store and she bought a violin. It was all new and shinny like and we took it to my house. She tried it out and!!!!! The bow wouldn't work. So I got out a couple of my mom's violins, my mom use to play it before she had me and stopped when she had Casey. We used one of mom's bows on the violin and it worked fine. Turns out with a new bow you need to put a LOT of roslin on it before it works right.

Hung out with Autumn and together we picked Casey up from school to go to the mall to watch Cropse Bride. The other day I had taken Casey to the mall to buy the Family Guy movie and we saw that Cropse Bride was playing at 4:20. So we had made plans to go on Friday to watch it with Autumn, however, when we got to the mall turns out that the times had changed and it was only playing at 12:20, 2:40, and 7something. We missed it. We decided to come back the next day and watch it at 12:20.

Autumn spent the night and we watched I-Robots on HBO together. I liked it, which I didn't think I would when I had first seen the previews. Is it just me or does Will Smith play a cop a lot? We decided that we would get up early the next day and go to yard sales with mom.

We left the house Saturday morning at a quarter after 7. Got to the first sale before it opened and waited for it to open. GREAT SALE!!! They had VHS tape for 25cents each and I got 6! ^___^ Nightmare On Elm Stree 2,4,5 and Freddy's Dead (I think this is the sixth one...), Hellraiser-Hellseeker, and Forrest Gump. ^^;; Five horror movies and Forrest Gump. I LOVE FREDDY! I can't wait to find time to watch 2,4,5, and 6. Watched Hellraiser-Hellseeker that night with dad. Pinhead is awesome. I loved it. I need to get my hands on the orginal Hellraiser and watch that.

It started to get late and mom was still stopping at sales. At 11:15 I started to get nervous because we were still about 20mins from home to pick Casey up and we needed about 30mins to get back up to the city. When mom asked what I was so antsy about I reminded her that the money started at 12:20 and she was like: OH! I thought you were going to the later one! So we rushed home, made a quick lunch, grabbed Casey, and we were out the door!

The movie was good, and we got in the theater just as it was starting. I know a lot of people said it sucked, but that's because they wanted it to be like The Nightmare Before Chirstmas I think. You can't think like that, because the movie was very good!

Said goodbye to Autumn after the movie and went to church. After church we ordered a pizza and watched the movie. And I stayed up to get on the internet and watch Anime afterwards only... huh... no dailtone. Our phone line was out. No internet for me. *pouts* Which sucked because I like the internet to keep me awake in busy durning the commercails. I ended up getting sleepy and fell asleep before I saw the new eps. of Scr-YE-dy or however it's spelt. Well at lest it was that and not FMA. It's one of the 'okay' shows that I don't mind watching, but wouldn't be sad if it was pulled off the air.

Sunday, time to leave. Spent nearly all day packing. Took a break to play Super Smash Brother with Casey. We called it training for the Super Smash Brothers tournament I'm thinking about entering in Nov. I kicked her and the level 9 computers butts! Three against one? No sweat for me!!

Then it was time to go. Mom dropped me off at the bus station and we said goodbye. Sat on the bus forever waiting to go. We finally left just about 30mins late. Drove through to Sayracuse. Got on another bus, that one was late too. Got into Bufflo. One more bus to go!! Wait... what? WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE LAST BUS TO FREDONIA ALREADY LEFT!?!?!

>_< So there I was stuck in a bus depo with no bus heading to where I needed to be at 9:35pm and I was still about an hour away from my destation. See Zig-zag get pissed off and freak. Calmly called mom... er... maybe not the smartest thing because she started to freak saying things like I'm stuck there and that she didn't think Aunt Varis could come get me and she keep saying how I was stuck. See Zig-zag break down. I started to cry as I talked to her. Then my nose started to bleed... which didn't help matters any.

Finally got ahold of myself after much silent cursing of the bus drivers and talked to mom. There had to be a taxi or something, I could take that but I would probably need take money out of her checking accont with my emeracny ATM card she gave me to her accont. I what was left of my savings in my pocket 85 dollars, I'd see what I could do with that, but to watch her accont because I might be taking money out of it. Relaxed, calmer, I then realize... I had no idea how to go about getting a taxi. Sure, I knew you could stand outside and wave your hand, but that was mostly for local stops right? I mean... I was going a long way away. So I decided to ask for some information on getting a taxi at the ticket booth.

The lady just gave me this look. "You want to go to Fredonia! In a taxi?! Do you know how much that costs?!" That didn't sound good. Great. So maybe I don't have anywhere near enough money for a taxi. That hopless feeling was coming back. "You can just stay in the terminal tonight. There are police around you'll be fine. Wait for the bus that comes in at 8:40am. That would be better and a lot of people do it."

I felt like crying again. That would NOT be better. I'm sure most of these people that spend the night in the reminal don't have curved spines. I could just see me now! Trying to sit on hard plastic chairs all night long and feeling my back, which at the moment was already screaming in pain from sitting still for so long, get even worse. So bad that it would eventually feel like someone was standing on my chest and I would have trouble breathing and start freaking out over the lack of air. (That actually happens when my back hurts bad enough) Then again, if I slept on the hard floor that would help my back a bunch! Yup, sleep on the cold, hard, dirty floor with only my arm for a pillow. I could just see myself shivering on the floor miserble all night long. There was NO way I was staying in the terminal. Yes. I was willing to pay for a taxi.

Only it wasn't that simple. This lady kept trying to talk me into staying at the terminal. When I told her that I had to get back to take a midterm because I don't like talking about my back, she suggested that I could have the terminal supervisior right a note to my teacher saying it wasn't my fault the bus came in and made me miss my connecting bus. See Zig-zag get annoyed and snap. So I started crying because I annoyingly do that when I'm frustrated. Finally the women helped me find out how much a cab would cost. 90 dollars. >_< Bye, bye savings.

She told me to get this one guy's cab because he really nice. And he was. He got out of the cab to help me load my bags into the trunk. I was so happy to be in the cab and on my way back at last. He asked me what kind of music I like and I said any. So he turned on the radio. When Avril Lavigne's With You started to play and I thought dully how I would have been listing to that CD and song if the bus had gotten in on time and how at that moment I wished I wasn't so alone I think I nearly snapped. See Zig-zag go crazy. I really would have broken out in histarical laughter and I don't think I would have stopped, except a small portion of my brain that was still fuctioning reminded me that there was a strange guy driving me home and I probably didn't want to freak him out.

Finally got back just after 11pm. Called mom to let her know I had gotten back saftely. I just wanted to fall into bed and sleep. Sleep and not wake up when my roommate walked in. She started to unpack her bags. She needed the light on and was making a bit of a racket so I knew I wasn't going to sleep anyway while she was up. So I unpacked as well and while doing so one of her friends stopped by. The three of us chitchatted for a bit until my roommate kept hinting that she wanted to go to bed and her friend finally got the hints. Finally got to sleep at 12:20ish. Yay sleep.

But besides the trip back I had a TON of fun this vaction.

   More AMV Goodness!
Started a new one. I really like this one! It's gotta be one of my all time best AMVs.

I finally figured out what to press to slow and quicken clips. Will be SO much help!

I got to get back to editing!

Note to self: As much as you like to deny the fact. Eatting, sleeping, and bathroom breaks HAVE to come before editing. Oh... and I guess going to class and doing homework should be important too...

   Mean old dream!
Last night I dreamed that my friend Autumn and I were playing in the snow at my house. We were having fun when we heard loud barking. We looked up and saw three of the neighbors big dogs running towards us. I yelled for dad to get his gun as Autumn and I tried to stand up. It was a dream so we kept slipping in the snow. We couldn't get up. I watched as the dogs ran around back and for a breif second I wondered why they hadn't come after us, then I knew why. Just as I started to scream that they're after our dogs I heard sounds of dogs fighting.

I remember crying out their names, trying so hard to get out of the snow. Sally came FLYING out from the side of the house, all three dogs running after her with blood on their mouths. I knew my dog had been killed. She ran to me and I saw she was bleeding. I hugged her as the dogs came running up, they circled us growling. One was about to attack when dad finally came out and took a shot at them.

The dogs ran off and I held a shaking whimpering Sally. Dad walked up and shook his head. "She's not going to make it." I remember crying and hugging her close. More things were said about her health and it all wound up to dad wanting to shoot her to put her out of her misery.

After a lot a crying I said yes and held her as dad took aim. She licked me and made this happy whine, dad couldn't do it. He started crying that he couldn't shoot her because she was too innocent and the dream ended there.

WA!!! I MISS MY PUPPIES!

   Stephen King
I had lots of free time yesterday because I got my homeword done supper fast. I got to do something that I was missing recently. Reading. When I was home I managed to find time to read at lest a page or two a day. I haven't gotten to read recently at all. So today I read from around 2 to 7:50 stopping at 5pm to go eat dinner.

I read the third volume of Chronicals of the Crused Sword, but then switched over to Stephen King's Pet Semetary. He's such an amazing writer. I know people citize him for coming up with weird ideas and a LOT of ideas, but he buts EFFORT into those ideas. He puts thought behind them and makes them work, and make you go: huh... wow, never thought of it like that.

And his character are AMAZING! In this book Louis is characterized so well. I think he is one of the best character writers out there. The way his characters think and act, so much more lifelike in his books than all others. I see myself realating to his characters SO easily.

Misery is my number one from him. Paul Sheldon reminds me too much about the way my own mind thinks. Then again, Pet Semetary is SO good too. Louis Crandel is so real to me, like he's in the dorm across from me... except in reality that's the girls bathroom...

I find Per Semetary to be a sader book than Misery. Misery had Paul working so hard to live, he wanted life and was working so hard to escape his situation so he could live. However, Pet Semetary main's focus is death itself. It's so much sadder than Misery.

He's such a GREAT author! I hope one day I could even be half, no... even 10% as good as he is. I really idoliz him, I want to be like him... but not like him. I want to be as great as he is, but I want to do it in my own way.

So good... damn it... why'd I pass up all those 10cent books of his at that garage sale?!?!?! -_-;; I thought I would never get around to reading them all... damn it... I'm so stupid sometimes. HOW COULD I HAVE PUT DOWN COGU, CARRIE, CHIRSTINE, THE DEAD ZONE AND... AND... AND...UGH!!!!! HOW!!! Agh..
