Thursday From Around the World!!

Happy Thursday! I'm not actually around the world, but I am in another state. Seattle! (not that Seattle's a state) Visiting my sister at UW, so it's all very exciting and whatnot.

But it's also very very cold. Feels like Christmas. Except for in the direct sunlight, then it's very hot. So it's confused. But hopefully it'll be warmer tomorrow? It's not actually that bad today. I'm just whiny.

I'm in my sister's room right now, 'cause she's off at work. Just read some fantastic Iron Man fanfic, because I am oh-so obsessed. More on that later. When she comes back, we're gonna hang out some more, and then watch the Office, and then there's some sort of hall event involving grilled cheese and Grey's. (I've been watching Lost on the internet for the past two weeks, anyway)

Yesterday was a plane ride and a bus ride, which were both uneventful. My sister's bf Josh came to the airport to escort me to the school, and that was way nice, because I'd probably end up not making it on my own. Then we hung out in her room for a while (she bought a box of Cheez-it and a Mr Pibb in expectation of my visit) before heading into the wide world for some insanely good Thai food. Then we got coffee and "sat in the secret room at Lander" for a while. Tomorrow will be even more jam-packed with events like exploring and having coffee.

Was it last Thursday that I was still at school? I'm checking. (If I was Tony Stark, I could do it in my mind...) Why yes, yes it was. Since Saturday I've been on Summer, and that's kinda awesome. Saw Made of Honor with the folks that night, and it was fairly good. "Good" by chick-flick standards, but not overly so. Definitely not bad. I love the Demps when he's not in Grey's--that character is killing him.

Then Sunday me and my dad went and saw Iron Man! Now listen, when I heard of it/was made to watch trailers, I was only somewhat interested. Some of it looked like it could possibly be cool, and the rest of it looked like it would be the dumbest thing ever. So that's what I went in with, when I saw it. Okay, but guys, it's a fantastic movie. I am filled with fannish mumblings, and it's not like it's Batman or anything else I like on principle. Go. See. It. It will exceed your expectations, probably even if you want to see it. It is very, very good.

And I finally got my new tooth! (relevant because Monday happens after Sunday) You can see some of the metal, so it's kinda like a silver tooth. It's definitely better than the temporaries, although I'm still babying it. I bet it's just fine by now, though.

And Tuesday I got a cute haircut and Wednesday I came here. Other than that, it's been the Iron Man fic and Guitar Hero, which is on loan for the summer. Oh, and one of those days I caught up on Office (weird) and Lost (weirder! but intense) and even Chuck (good, but I don't know where they think they're going), so it's been a very mediaed week. Started reading one of my Screenwriting magazines I got for Christmas, and I'm really happy about the industry I am trying to get into. XD

Haha, I got some Cheez-it stuck under my new tooth, so now I've got a salt-lick going. Don't you find that fascinating?? Try putting some salt in some half-n-half sometime, too, that's actually quite tasty. So are organic bread bowls. And the coffee here. Well, the mochas, anyway. I bet the actually coffee is just as disgusting as it is anywhere. XD

Um, okay. I think she's getting off work soon, so fun will ensue. I'll see you guys all again soon!!
