I'm tired, and I'm sorry and I wish everything could be better.
I've been listening to Jaws Theme Swimming on repeat. For hours, all night.
I always liked Brand New because you can feel what's being said and especially, what's not.
In any case, I love you. A lot.
When are you going to get your schedule? Because I was thinking we could get it at the same time, but that only works on Tuesday and I'm not sure if you would want to get it earlier or not. And I would say that you could just drive us up and get it on Monday but unfortunately the school's schedule doesn't allow for that. Unless of course you want to spend 2 hours waiting at the school. So, unless you want to wait, I'll just have my mom take me Monday morning.
I was thinking... are you up for a game of Monopoly sometime?
P.S. Remember that turtle that I made you on vacation? My grandma dropped it off at my mom's house because we left it in her car, and I meant to give it to you yesterday and to put your rocketship in my window, but I forgot. Maybe tomorrow I can try again. Assuming I don't see you today.

And we learn as we age
We've learned nothing
And my body still leaks
And you take
'cause they give
Though I love you
But my body, it leaks like a sieve.
You never mentioned why exactly I won't see you until probably Saturday. Not that I'm trying to keep tabs on you obviously. Whatever. You're a big boy, you can do what you like (mostly). I was just curious. It's a little strange to me when someone asks where you are and why we're not together and I don't have an answer. I think it's strange that they bother to ask where you are anyway. As if we can't have days apart...
It just makes it that much better when we DO see each other:
In any case, I find it even more amusing that suddenly everyone wants to take surveys now. It would be better if I could refer people, but according to the front desk, that has been disabled on their site- but it should be back, and improved, shortly. How the fuck do you improve something like that? All they have to do is send an email, and then credit me points. Bloody hell. I tell you what.
In the mean time, I'm well on my way to another $50. It hadn't really occurred to me throughout last school year the amount of points I could make so Quickly. I just ignored those emails, but fuck! I'm getting like two surveys a day- each for 40 points. It's been 6 days. A little under a week since I redeemed my points and I'm already 17.5% finished. If I keep going at this rate I should have another $50 by picture day at school, at least.
I just hope that Nat and Liz are getting their surveys as freQuent as me. Because I seem to recall getting one or two a day since I've joined, but I can't really be sure. It just suddenly seems to have increased. Or maybe I just care more. Who knows.
Wow. It's been a long time since I had a real post, huh?
Eurm...
Frankie's cool. I keep reading up on special precautions I should take with care for it (I say it because we still don't know if it's a boy or girl), such as dechlorinator for the water (because I use it straight from the tap), big powerful filter, probiotics, ammonia and nitrate reducers, special heating lights, constant water temperature, special diet, even fucking pH level. Goddamn. It's just a turtle. I filled up a tank with water and rocks, made a hiding place, put in live fish to chomp at, kept the water warm enough, and only recently did I even put a filter in. And it's pretty tiny as far as efficient filters go.
In any case, I'd say Frankie's doing well. I was concerned that it couldn't catch any of the fish because I bought a bunch of rosy reds and they were pretty Quick. But I woke up one morning to clean the tank and 5 of them were gone, plus 3 of the little guppies I put in about a month ago. THAT surprised me. Those guppies were smart. How they were caught, I could never guess. I suppose Frankie's Quicker and smarter than he lets on (but he lets on that he's retarded, so it's not such a shocker).
Bodle is also doing well! He's still being cute and stuff. He's losing a lot of his fur so that he can grow in a fluffy winter coat, so he looks funny right now. Also, I've noticed that he wasn't really eating either, but yesterday I was going to bring him upstairs when I saw him munching on some hay, which is a good sign. He certainly shits enough to fool people that he's eating. But I forgive him because he's a rabbit and that's what he does. And I think he forgives me for all the crazy stuff I've put him through also. He still doesn't exactly come to me. It's still mostly running away, but generally he's pretty comfortable to be around me, and he's okay with me petting him on the couch. At the very least he doesn't hate me, and I'll take that.
By the way, I rearranged his cage, and managed to ziptie some grates together to form a pen for him. The grates are also attached to an actual rabbit cage where his foodstuffs is, and it can be maneuvered so he can be let out to run around. It's pretty nifty if I do say so myself.
Lalalalalalala. Hmm. In other news, I decided to look up a show I used to watch on abc family (or rather, fox family as it used to be) called Big Wolf on Campus. If you don't remember it or have never even fucking heard of it (I wouldn't be surprised. I kind of assumed that I was the only one who ever watched it because I've never heard anyone else mention it), it's about a senior jock who gets bitten by some strange animal and becomes a werewolf, and then of course he has to fight crazy other monsters and evil things and save his town. Blah blah, you know that whole bit. And p.s. his best friend and sidekick is this weird goth geek who pretty much made the whole show worth watching in my opinion. Plus, the werewolf guy was nice to look at. It's a very 90s show and cheesy as can get. It was literally made mostly to make fun of other monster shows. I watched it when I was about 6 or 7, so I didn't really understand a lot of it, I just knew it was FUCKING AWESOME. Watching it now a lot more of their references make sense.
Anyhoodles, if you would like to check out some of these jewels of 90s television, there's actually a channel on youtube just for it: BigWolfOnCampusTV
Enjoy. Laugh. Ignore. Whatever. I like it. Screw you guys.

Love, I know we're strapped for cash right now. However, The Used concert that I really want to go to with you, is having presale right now. There are 256 tickets left (last time I checked) and they're $33.95 for general admission, plus you get a free download of their new album plus a b-side. I had my dad pay for my ticket, and I'll ask my mom if she'll pay for it so that we can buy yours. You were saying that we need to go to a concert and this one is really important to me. However, we need to buy them soon. Like tomorrow, or Wednesday. I don't know how many tickets will sell in that time, but once they're gone, they're gone. Otherwise, we'd have to wait for general sale on Saturday, which will, doubtless, be more expensive.
And if my mom doesn't want to pay for my other (your) ticket, and we do have to wait for general sale, I pinky swear that I will pay for it somehow. Maybe with the $50 that I get. And I know that means we wouldn't be able to go out to dinner, but I think dinner can wait.
So, please please please please? You really have no reason to say no... :)

Aching my head like it's the weight of the world
And it seems I forgot how to smile
I haven't actually. I've been smiling more than ever. It was our two year anniversary yesterday and it was wonderful. AND there's one more part left to this anniversary. We've got another movie date today. We're going to see Harry Potter and then finish off with (500) Days of Summer.
We've already seen Ponyo, Funny People, The Goods, and District 9. All of which are fantastic movies :D, so definitely go see them.
In other news, Frankie needs more fishies, and Bodle is mad at me because I had to clean his cage.
Also, I ONLY NEED 50 MORE SURVEY POINTS AND THEN I WIN $50! because I am awesome. Which is good because we are very extremely poor right now. My dad has to pay the mortgage, so I can't borrow any money from him, and Carl has been spending his allowance on stuff for us to do so he's actually kind of technically in debt to his parents right now I think.
And even more good news! I have about 350 points earned from just using a certain search engine, and I can redeem those for two free movie tickets! Plus, I'm supposed to get ANOTHER free movie ticket from that Star Trek PopTarts thing.
I like going to the movies for (mostly) free.

It seems today, that all you see, is violence in movies and sex on TV
"Brian, I want to punch you in the dick right now."
*ring* "Oh, that’s Dylan calling me now. Hi Dylan! Yeah? And how many library assistants did they pick? ONE out of FOUR!" *mouths one out of four* "That’s great!" *beep beep beep, beep beep* "Extra Extra! Ice cream for Dylan tonight!"
"Peter, you’re dog is giving me diabetes."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"My apologies, my pet cricket has restless leg syndrome."

Do I divide and fall apart?
I've had a very bipolar last few days. Everywhere from weeping to bouncing-off-the-walls-excited to completely composed to wallowing boredom.
I'm terrified that Bodle will be afraid of me and that I'm wasting my time and ruining his life.
My dad seems to have come into a bit of money, and after spending close to $150 on Bodle and Frankie, not to mention the cost of groceries and trips to 7-11 and the gas station, I'm worried that we've been a little too eager to take advantage of this. The worst part is, I need a pen to keep Bodle in and I know it's going to cost about $40.
And our anniversary is next week, and I figured that we'd spend it watching all of those fantastic movies that are out right now. I've got at least 6 picked out that I really want to see, and I figure we could cover that in three days. But that would cost $30+. I could probably pull that off, but generally...
I have a problem.
*sigh* Not to be selfish, but I want you back here. I'm stressed out. Dillon keeps calling and inviting me for free and I'm not even in the mood for that.
P.S. When did comedy have to be vulgar to be funny? And even now it's not funny. What happened?

I'm gonna watch you shine, i'm gonna watch you grow. I'm gonna paint a sign, so you'll always know.
Lots been done. Finish later.
I went shopping and ate at Olga's with my mom and stuff. That song was playing. I had a flashback sort of. From theRugrats in Paris, I think Wild Thornberrys. I'm not too sure. Some animated movie from my childhood. It almost made me cry in the restaurant.
Where has this summer gone?

So long and good night
I love perfect timing like that.
I heard Steady As She Goes today for the first in a long time. It was nice but I didn't hear the end of it.
Well, I had an awesome fucking day! :DDDDD
Our bong should be here in 2-3 days. (We got upgraded so it's bigger and to compensate for our troubles, it's worth just a little bit more too!)
And this weekend, I'll be hanging out with Katie at her family reunion thing.
And Monday about 6:30 or 7 I'll get to go visit our bunny and probably take her home too! But I'll meet some other ones while I'm there, just in case.
