My mom got a video baby monitor to put in my grandma's room so we can keep an eye on her and make sure she isn't hurting herself. She has dementia and has tried to escape on many occasions, sometimes resulting in her getting hurt. And being picked up by the cops. My brother has put school on hold so he can basically stay with her and take care of her all day so my mom and I can go to work. My grandma sleeps in my old room while I now sleep in the main living area of the house.

Anyway, back to the point. This video monitor was a mistake. It's creepy as hell. Looks like something out of Paranormal Activity. My mom SWORE she saw something in the room. Some kind of light or whatever and it's freaking her out. Also, my grandma talks to herself (and maybe other people she thinks are there?) so that's creepy. My mom really believes in ghosts and spirits and whatnot. I suppose I do too, I just don't like them to be so close. It looked like dust to me, but whatever. I still hate that monitor.

In less disturbing news, ThinkGeek finally has Eleven's sonic screwdriver back in stock (!!) so I ordered one of those. Tomorrow I'm getting my hair cut. Finally. I'm also only working like 4 1/2 hours tomorrow and I'm going out to eat with a friend after work. Sunday I'm working all day, but I have Monday off and I'm going to spend it watching movies. My life is so exciting :P

That does sound a bit creepy with the video monitor...I mean, it's a good idea, but seeing/hearing weird stuff? No thank you! O_O

Also, LOLZ forever @ your icon. XD

Yeah, I blame scary movies for making night vision and surveillance camera footage creepy forever o_0
