i see dead people
Feb. 10th, 2009 06:46 pmI got my 'Normal's Overrated' House shirt in the mail today!!
Also, my grandma apparently sees some little boy (or at least the outline/shadow of one) in the bathroom window. She says he doesn't say anything, but he watches her. She seems to think this is perfectly normal. There is nobody outside. Plus the window is really high and frosted so you can't see out of it anyway. She's 92 and not all there, but it still freaks me out.

NEW HEROES TONIGHT!!!
Sep. 29th, 2008 04:13 pm( My birthday cake from this weekend )
On my actual birthday (on Wednesday), I'll probably order a pizza, get a chocolate cake or brownies, and spend the whole day watching Colin Firth movies, SG1, and all sorts of wonderful things. And then watch the season premiere of Pushing Daisies =D
In other news, I just finished my last driving lesson. I even drove on the freeway. And got stuck in traffic. But it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
I have to take the train back to SF today because while my mom was at work, and my brother at school, my grandma got out of the house AGAIN and a police officer drove around trying to find where she lived. Basically my grandma can't be left alone at all anymore. I don't know what we're going to do when I get a job. But at least I can be there for now.

Jun. 12th, 2008 04:09 pmI hate big events. I really do. All you do is plan and stress. I almost wish people didn't care about me graduating. I know my mom would be really upset if she has to miss it (her only daughter, her first kid graduating, etc.) but my grandma is having a brain biopsy on Friday (day before graduation) and I feel bad that my mom is going to be away from her for most of the day Saturday. For the record, my grandma turned 92 today.
I have graduation practice in about 40 minutes and after we have a senior dinner. All I want to do is go back to the apartment and clean some more. I'm trying to start packing things so my mom can bring some stuff back with her this weekend. I don't want to wait until the last minute to move everything out of my apartment.
And I'm tired today because I was crying last night over this shit and the weather has been hot and I don't know.
PS I'm wearing flip-flops to my graduation. It's going to be hot. Fuck shoes. This is Santa Cruz anyway.
However, a couple things that are making me happy (or will make me happy):
1. New Psych soon ( OMG I love them <3<3<3 )
2. Comic-Con
3. New Stargate movie
4. New X-Files movie
5. Trip to Scotland to see the Boosh
6. Death Note
7. News about a new Drake & Josh movie

Jul. 26th, 2007 02:25 pmSo, this morning I get up to check on my grandma only to discover that she had left the house. My grandmother ran away. I almost had a freakin' heart attack. Thank God, some nice person drove her to the office (we live in a park) and some lovely lady who worked there came to get me and drove us both home. There is now a piece of wood in the door frame (it's a sliding glass door) so that it can't open enough to let her out, but WTF?
My mom called a home today. My grandma just can't stay here any more. She doesn't sleep at night which keeps my mom awake and she can barely sleep as it is. We're trying to get her to stay with family but my mom hasn't had time to call anyone yet and my grandma has no sense of time. I tell her she's seeing someone tomorrow and she thinks that's an hour from now or already happened. I feel so bad for my mom, having to see her mom like this. There isn't really anything we can do either. She's 91 and it's amazing she made it this far living on her own.
In better news, from http://www.simpsonizeme.com; it's me... kinda ;D

Jul. 21st, 2007 05:05 pmI am not reading book 7 because I haven't read any of the other books. I usually just wait for the movies. I am, however, reading all the spoilers. But that's not what this post is about, despite the use of my most recently adopted icon (which makes me happy).
Watching Life on Mars has made me realize how much I miss Starsky & Hutch. For the past couple of days, I've been rewatching some of my favorite eps from seasons 1, 2, and 3. I still don't have/haven't seen season 4 (I am ashamed of myself, really).
The past week has been eventful. I called PG&E and set up an account for my apartment starting in August. My grandma has now moved in with us now as she cannot live on her own any longer. While my mom is at work, and my brother does shit, I take care of her. This is difficult and rather frustrating because she is 91 and suffers from dementia. And even though my mom is her only child to actually take her in and give a damn, my grandma still thinks my mom is the 'enemy' and that she's a prisoner. She also doesn't sleep all through the night and causes my mom to miss out on the little sleep she can get. This isn't good for anybody involved. I was going to go back to my Dad's this weekend, but I think I'll stay and help out a little longer.
On happier notes: Hot Fuzz is almost out; Psych makes me happy; in August, I'm moving into my apartment and for a week I'm going on a road trip with my dad, stepmom, and sister. We're taking an RV and going down the coast of California. I never get to go anywhere, so that should be fun. No computer, TV, or internet for six days though. Let's hope I make it back alive.
I've also been cleaning out my room (well, making a dent). I'm trying to bring as much stuff with me to my apartment as possible so I don't have to spend more money. Also, what would I do with all the new crap in a year?
Anyhoo, ( meme. )

Jun. 12th, 2007 01:22 pmmy grandma is from Oklahoma and she calls me a "dirt scratchin' beetle." she says that when she dies, she's going to come back and haunt me with dirty dishes (i HATE doing dishes).

she's also 91 today <3
my brain hurts
Feb. 5th, 2007 02:03 pmi'm in the computer lab right now and i'm gonna be here until 6 when i'm meeting with a classmate to study for our Earth Science & Cinema midterm on Wednesday. i'm tired and my eyes are not happy with having stared at a computer screen for 4 days in a row (about 6 hours each time). at least i'm actually getting work done! that's... something.
Wednesday night i'm going to dinner with Casey. i saw her and her boyfriend on the bus this morning. i knew she had a paper due today so i asked if she had finished it. she told Chris (her boyfriend) to tell me what happened cause she couldn't talk about it. she had written her paper and was saving it to a flash drive only to remove the flash drive without ejecting it first (or something) and her paper was basically lost. i think it was only a rough draft but still. all that work and then that.
and the other day, i called my grandma to see how she's doing. (i go to school in Santa Cruz. i can see the ocean from almost everywhere on campus.) she ended the conversation by telling me to stay out of the ocean and to look out for sharks because they are clever and hide where you wouldn't think to look for them. thank you, Grandma. i'll keep an eye out for any sharks next time i'm walking through the woods (well, you wouldn't expect them there!). i love my grandma. *loves*
