How many days until I go on vacation?
Jul. 14th, 2003 11:59 pmI need to be in some mountains really badly.
Man, it's still like three weeks until we go to Lake George. This sucks. Being sick stopped me from going on my yearly trip to Calgary to see my wonderful Rockies, and our LG vacation got postponed by nearly a month this year. I can't stand it! I hate flatland. And the occasional pimple on the landscape just isn't enough. I know that when I go I'll have absolutely no computer access for the entire week, and I will miss RPing some...but not that much. LG is...it's...it's kind of like home. It's lke just being there is enough. To be able to look out over the lake, go out canoeing whenever, and have the beautiful green Adirondacks all around...
I kind of want to do something new and different while we're there this year. Go somewhere different for once, since we always do the same stuff every year. Didy's gonna be there from Mon-Wed, staying in one of the small rooms at Pine Point. Woo hoo! Hopefully Kel and I will get to drive around in his car where we can listen to some good music. Love his stereo. Anyhoo, he says we have to figure out something good to do while he's there...which probably means going to The Great Escape. Here's hoping I'm well enough by then to do that. I mean, right now I can't even dance around without feeling like hurling, so if I don't get better there's no way I'm gonna make it on a roller coaster or the Skyflier. I SO wanna do the Skyflier again, especially with Didy watching. We'll see if he can still wimp out of it when his two little sisters are doing it. I just wish it wasn't so darn expensive. For 3 people it's $20 per person! And that's above the $33 or whatever entrance fee. And that's American $! I don't even wanna translate that back to Canadian $.
Still, I wanna go there right now. *sigh*
But for the moment I'll just amuse myself with RPing. Bleh, Liz's computer is sick or something and it keeps conking out. Or something. Still, RPing in little spurts is better than none at all, even though she's been offline for 45 minutes now...
I tried to do some drawing today. I wanted to draw that cute pic I had in my head of Risk sitting there trying to learn to read english through comics. I've found out that I simply can't draw people sitting down, especially not sitting cross-legged. Darn it all. I even tried drawing it first with that bubble-dummy method, but I couldn't even draw the dummy right. >_<
I can't believe what I found out today. Well, maybe I _can_ believe it, but still. The new pills that doc gave me that he said would combat my nausea? Ma told me that she looked them up and nowhere does it say they fight nausea. They're a form of anti-depressant! O_O Okay, so I was getting that this doc thought that I was unhappy with my life and that it was contributing to the way I felt. Actually, I'm sure he thinks that that's completely what it is, since it turns out it's not acid-related. God knows he was trying to psychoanalyze me right then and there, and he also decided that the fiberoptic thingy was unnecessary. I'm sure he's already made up his mind that this is somehow psycho-related, and that's that. So I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Frelling hell, though. I feel like I've been scammed or something. Oh, and the pills? They help, I guess, like those other pills "helped". But the problem is still there. I'm still nauseous and I still get pain after eating, although it's less than without any pills. :P Maybe it's a placebo effect or something. But it sure ain't curing me. I'm sick of being sick.
I was hungry, so I just ate a pudding, something I haven't had in a couple of weeks. My tummy feels awful again. Teach me to eat. Sheesh. I shoulda had a salad...at least I would have enjoyed that more before my tummy fought back. *shrugs* Was feeling too lazy to get into making one, though...
I still wanna write more fic. Still can't. That damn scene is gonna be the death of me.
Speaking of fic, I gotta say how much I love the GAFF board. It's so nice to be on a board full of fully literate and fairly witty people who aren't afraid to speak their mind and hand out criticism where it's due. None of the trying so hard to be perfectly diplomatic and not step on any toes while groaning at semi-literate posts and fics. It's like...an entire community of Soundwaves! he he he
I tried watching TF: Armada again the other day since it now shows every afternoon. I've been hoping it might get a bit better with time. No such luck. It's still absolutely lame and completely a children's show. Yes, I know these shows are aimed at kids who will want toys, but it's annoying that they can't seem to include the older viewer as well. BW always had something to keep us entertained. And G1, even though it's from the 80s and had often laughable animation, had its moments so that I could still enjoy it while rewatching the eps this year.
I should download more, especially the ones important to canon.
But! That's enough rambling again. Liz has finally made it back on, so I'm gonna take advantage of the situation. *cheers*
