Hello and goodbye, everyone. I'm going to CTY today.
I have time to blog because I woke up, thought "oh, shit, why didn't they wake me up yet?", ran over to my mother's room to look at the clock, and it was seven. Go figure. I got ready by eight. And here I am at nine, having just critiqued the introduction to Charlie's new masterful work of fiction.
I also got a haircut yesterday. It kind of bothers me in its ridiculous short-a-tude. It's just a little below my shoulders. But hell, whatever. It makes it look a lot more. . . perky. Bouncy. I also know how to do fun ziggyzaggy parts now, too. My hairstylist was a sweetheart who really knew what she was doing.
So, now I have two hours to do nothing. No one is online to see me off, unfortunately. I think I will finish reading Snow Crash, or try. I went to bed early last night. Damn me.
I hope I espy Yael and Stephen hanging about during lunch or something. :)
Alrighty, guys, see ya in three weeks. After those three weeks I'll be gone for nother week, so you'd better mob me the night I'm back. :P
Adieu, adieu!

::hums a merry tune:: Going to kill the Gene, ha ha, going to kill the Gene, oh yes, going to rip him to shreds and cut off his head and I'm going to kill the Gene. . .
::sings:: Son, can ya play me a memory? I'm not really sure how it goes, but it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete when I wore a younger man's clothes!
^.^ Hi, how're you? I'm great. Thanks for asking. Cassie's gone to Boston, but first she met up with her high school heartthrob Ian. My mother wants her to run away with Ian and forget about Bill.
(A secret bit of Erin thinks this sounds like a good idea.)
We are going to have a storm. I'm happy about this storm idea. I hope the weather is nice on Friday, though, because Shannon's party is on Friday, and Shannon's party involves swimming. :)
I hate my teeth. They kind of suck.
Guess who just saw a Weird Al concert?

Holy shit, I just came up with the best Internet pickup line ever!
"Hey baby, check out my blog. . ."
MWAHAHAHAHAAA!
Ah. . . so. Today so far has been kind of ordinary. I'm going to clean some stuff up in a little while, whenever I run out of things to talk about with my darling partners in crime, which may happen quickly.
I wonder what Shannon wants for her birthday. I think I will probably stick with the traditional Erin-like giftgiving pattern. Many of you may know which lines this runs upon. Anyway. Yeah. Thinking about CTY, which is going down pretty soon, and Snow Crash, which kicks simply ridiculously large amounts of ass. :) Yay. I love Neal Stephenson.
So. . . have a nice day. :)
"Until a man is twenty-five, he still thinks, every so often, that under the right circumstances he could be the baddest motherfucker in the world. If I moved to a martial-arts monastery in China and studied real hard for ten years. If my family was wiped out by Columbian drug dealers and I swore myself to revenge. If I got a fatal disease, had one year to live, devoted it to wiping out street crime. If I just dropped out and devoted my life to being bad."
~Neal Stephenson, p. 254 Snow Crash
Thank you, Mr. Stephenson. :) Now everyone go read Snow Crash!!

You are an IDEALISTIC VIRGIN.
What Kind of Virgin Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla
So what!? ^.^()
The following quiz result only brings joy into my life.
Gay Bear
Which Dysfunctional Care Bear Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla
Threat rating: extremely low. You may think you can
subvert the government, but if you should try
you will be smited mightily because God likes
us best.
What threat to the Bush administration are you?
brought to you by Quizilla
Why is it that I find this so damned amusing? I'm not really an athiest as such, but hell. . . if it means I'm even a mildly irritating thing to George W. Bush, it rocks the house. xD
Just saw The Pianist, finally. The movie's really incredible. One of the things that makes it so great is how little dialogue there is in it. Another one of the things that makes it so great is how the main character isn't some drop-dead gorgeous actor, but is a kind of funny-looking but cute actor who, after seeing him accept his Oscar for best actor, you think "aww, what a cool guy!" in spite of having no idea what he's like ordinarily.
If you haven't seen it, see it, goddamn it. It's a good movie. It's a little bit creepy, though, and the ending is sad. If not examined closely it seems to be ironic and rather lacking in justice. If examed more closely, though, there's a kind of bittersweet, cold, cruel and insensitive logic to the ending.
And hell. With that cool a plot and everything, would you believe. . . it's a true story?

(also in the realm of silly quizzes, I was a footsie in the "which sign of affection are you?" test. it might be just me, but I find this to be totally inaccurate. . .)
You are Peace.
You are at peace with your self and the world
around you. You have balance in your life and
exude tranquility from every pore of your body.
People are constantly asking you "what is
your secret?"
What Emotion Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla
For once, one of these things fits my name. Erin can mean either the country, Ireland, or peace. Peace is good. I approve of peace.
Hey, Charlie thinks peace doesn't exist. . . but I think, even if it doesn't now, it did once. At the dawn of time, before everything, there was peace. . .
I have often walked
Down the street before,
But the pavement always
Stayed beneath my feet before.
All at once am I
Several stories high,
Knowing I'm on the street where you live.
Are there lilac trees
In the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour
Out of every door?
No, it's just on the street where you live.
And oh, the towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear.
People stop and stare
They don't bother me,
For there's no where else on earth
That I would rather be.
Let the time go by,
I won't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live.

Hey, I just got back from visiting Charlie, just as charming and smooth as ever, if a little nervous. ^.^ Cas and I made him sing for us, and he also has the same beautiful voice as he did last I heard it.
He also sounds *exactly* like his father over the phone. . . o.O

Hi, Charlie. :) I've finally got the boy to read my blog! xD
a list of adjectives I've called Charlie Hyland in the past half hour: dirty (in conjunction with the noun "duck"), evil (in conjunction with the noun "man"), smooth, sly, little (all three used in conjunction with the noun "bastard"), manipulative, slimy, evil (all three used in conjunction with the noun "childe")
Wow. ^.^
Hey, I'm going to Binghamton on Thursday! xD
Yay!

Hey, I went birthday shopping and got obscene amounts of stuff!
I got: a denim jumper (KAS got the same one), green pants with lots of cargo pockets that have brass links on the belt (coolness), ordinary blue jeans (you don't know how long it's been), a phoenix-y shirt (shiny), a gray-and-black partially-fuzzy velour-ish skirt (fuzzy. . .), and a gold/silver/black shirt to match the skirt with traily pretty sleeves (yay.). I also got dark chocolate, a mess of new CDs and some new books. And of course a call from my favorite cookie, Kochie. xD Thank you for calling, Kochie. :) ::hugs::
Oh. . . this jumper is comfy, though. xD I wanna go to sleep. . . and it's only just eleven. . .

Hey, I think Charlie called me. o.O Weird. Maybe I'll call him back. If his parents pick up they might be pissed at me, though. Oooh well. . . ::knows she's going to stare at the cell phone and think about this for a long time::
Cassie's home, too. I cooled her off with my watery-squirty fan when she got off the plane. xD
Uuuh, I think that's everything of any great consequence.

Billy Billy Billy!! It's your birthday and I haven't talked to you all day. . . I feel so bad!!!! o.o
And I have to sign off before midnight because of this hacking contest they're talking about. . . gah. . . break out the Mountain Dew, everyone! Time to get serious! xD
Aah. . . it's going to be my birthday the day after tomorrow. I am truly amazed at how little I care. Tomorrow I also have to finish up cleaning my room, because Cassie's coming home at 7.
Bugger all. . . too busy!
Aha, but there's Billy! :) Damn, I feel ridiculous, but I never got around to getting him something and and I think I shall have to get him something before I see him but after CTY. . . gnah. . .
. . . . . entries for 3.7.03 . . . . .
In other other other news: (this is the stuff I forgot before)
I got a dusty rose-and-black-marbled composition notebook for random scribbling during CTY. I think I will probably continue writing while I'm there and there'll be some doodles and so forth within its pages too. I wrote a mission statement on the first page.
I'm back in touch with Matt Baxter. I'm sure he's quite overjoyed about this. It seemed to me like he was very careful not to rebuff my comment that Nicole was his chick. :) I think he really likes her. I'm happy for him and I shall bug him further in high school about asking her to dances and things.
And I was shocked, amused and impressed by the fact that my sister and her friends have been playing Mortal Kombat instead of going out and enjoying the weather. I am not the only one. :)
Mmm. Hey, I know what I want for my birthday, too. Greg and Natalie got these cool .wav/.mp3 players for their birthday and I want one now, too. xD Oh well, we can all be non-original on occasion. I'm not the most original 8-1 chick anyway, so I have no reason not to be. :)
Cassie. . . I want your car. Can I have it? ^.^
Wee! I took the Shounen
or Shoujo test, created by Peacefulchaos.
Yay. :) I had to mess with the HTML for that results thing endlessly. Click on the pretty picture to take the test.
In other news, Billy will be gone all weekend. This saddens me. :(
Also in other news, Cassie is coming home this Sunday. This means she will be here for my birthday and it also means I will have to somehow hide my story from her lest she finds it and reads it. . . it's supposed to be a big surprise.
In other other news, Kristen also has a blog which you will find on my toolbar imminently. All of these people stole my layout. I think I should change it so I won't be so conformity-ish, but I'm way too lazy.
Aha, and in other other superbly cool news, I have finally listened to the mp3 CD Cassie made me in her car's new TOTALLY FRIGGIN' AWESOME stereo system! xD Happiness. They're coming to take me away, hah hah, they're coming to take me away, ho ho, hee hee, hah hah, to the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time. . .
I think that's the end of news, so. . . yeah. :) Fare thee well.

See what drug you are.
So, uh, I'm a fig newton.
Hey, don't give me that look! I like fig newtons! Although I prefer raspberry newtons. . .

Are you Addicted to the Internet?
The Are you Addicted to the Internet? Quiz at Stvlive.com! |
Wow. . . Shannon, are you really that addicted? I'm impressed!
So, yeah. . . hi, guys. :) How goes life? Terminator 3 opens today, and I might go see it. It's the movie my family is looking forward to most all summer. And you thought we were nice, if crazy, quiet people. . . now you know that we're really violent mechanical crazy people. . . *hem*
Yeah, I'm also halfway through the gigantic new Harry Potter. . . if not moreso by now. I just laugh every time I think of Sirius getting a letter addressed "Snuffles. . ." ^.^
Yes, and Shannon was telling me how pathetic I was and how I have no life, which I already knew in any case.
Could I be. . . a Harry Potter geek? xD
Haha, I now also know Kochie's blogthing. . .
I return triumphant! Shannon's new blogthing now has Shout Outs, just like mine. Take a trip to her lovely abode via my high-class suburban sidebar and give her a housewarming gift, eh?
(Did I mention I did the comments? xD)

Want To Know Which Element You Are?
You are Earth!
Level-headed, strong of will, unwavering in
beliefs. You are the roots, the strength, the solid force. A walking source of inspiration, you achieve
power and greatness without effort. You also hold great compassion and are in full control of your emotions.
This comes with a heavy price. You are unable to adapt and can be stubborn over the smallest of things.
You take the greatest offense to your ego being bruised. Need to loosen up a little...
Best Match: Fire, you might get burned but they'll show you how to use ALL of your emotions.
Worst Match: Air, no way you could stand being around them for more then a few seconds.
Streea wasted a bunch of time making this test.
Y'know, Katelyn, it just isn't fair. ^.^() You seem to be everyone's best match, meaning the fire element, of course. But then again. . . earth is on the top of your list. . .
"'Or any part of your body, really, we're not fussy where we stick this,' said Fred."

Welcome back to Hogwarts. WASHYA!
what's your battle cry? |
mewing.net | merchandise!
Yes, I remember this quiz. ^.^() I got Mew? last time, too. :) Although really I say meep far more than mew. . . no matter.
Should I say mew, then, instead of meep? . . .
Which Rainbow Brite kid are you? By
Growing.
Ah, Rainbow Brite. . . remember the good old days?
Katelyn also has a blogthing! How is it that I fail so utterly to know about this!?
So yeah, guys, since my comments are back in order and everything. . .
TALK TO ME!!! o.O Just posting feels like I'm talking to a wall. . .
YES! SHANNON HAS A BLOGTHING!!!
:) She is now another member of the mock-blogdelytes!
But you know, really, we're the only blogdelytes. The other guys are really the blogLEDYTES. I got the consonants wrong when I made up the site and I never changed it back. Oh well. Now you know. :)
Off to put her on my list of link-things!
