And then there were two...

Two days of school until I find out. In 48 hours, I'll know. And my offer to drive you home still stands Jake, if you're weren't scared off by my driving today.

So, The Return of the King Extended Version DVD came in the mail today. Which means that I got the awesome statue of Minas Tirith as well. It's a box-statue, and the inside of the box has the White Tree of Gondor. I was so happy...and then I had to pay my dad back for it, which means people will not be getting many - if any - presents this year. Unless I make the trek to the bank and take it out of my savings...which I just may do, come to think of it. However, I think I'm just going to pull the "buy for my parents and Moira" that I did last year. When it ends up that I'm spending like $300 dollars on gifts, my pockets tend to get a wee bit empty. Everyone will be receiving candy grams at my school and maybe cute little hand-made notes or something, though.

So my parents are out tonight. I'm such a loser: most kids throw wild parties with orgies and other unnecessary merriment such as that...I usually read, watch TV, write, etc. It's great to write when my parents are out, because I'm one of those people that hate when people even accidentally look over her shoulder when she's writing. It will also mean that I'll have my cell on all night after I have it charged (until they get back), and I just may call you, so beware everyone.

Hmm...looks like my mom left her water bottle by my computer. And that is what one would call Random Observation Number One from Rachel. Actually, I'm planning on staying online until about 7 (sorry, Isabel, no chatting tonight, I guess). Then I'll warm up my Chinese take-out, eat it, and take things from there. Honestly a night of watching TV would be quite welcome. I happened to not have an incredible amount of homework so I did that. I also practiced my pretty Debussy piece already - I love it, it's so nice.

So, my fun-filled night without my parents consists of hanging out in my underwear and a t-shirt, watching TV, updating my blog, and seeing how my friend did on her early acceptance to the college that I will not name for fear of jinxing it (Jake and Carley know who and what I mean...and Isabel can find out tomorrow).

My computer's updating something...don't know what it's doing, really. I'm just trying to keep talking on here until it finishes what it has to do. And I just tried to MSN you, Isabel, since you're online, but busy. Whether you're really busy or not remains to be seen.

Now you know what's disconcerting? Having your dad MSN you from upstairs. It's kind of like text messaging with the person next to you. It's fun, mind you, never said it wasn't - do it sometimes with you, Carley, and it's oodles of good times ("That was you???!!!") - but it's kind of weird when he could stand in his door and shout instead.

Umm...well, maybe I'll go check on the other blogs why my machine continues to update. It's 56% done apparently. Namaste.
