Now, you see, if my floppy drive on this computer actually WORKED, maybe I could be working on TIAJ right now. (125 pages and still kicking!!!)But I'm not, because it's not, and because my router is broken so I can't use the net on my 'top until I call and talk to some guy on the phone for three hours who'll guide me through a step by step setup only to discover that I need to buy a new one. Laughter. Sei and I want to go to Japanfest today, let me see if dad's working. I HOPE HE'S NOT!!! Damn! He is! Well, maybe I can find someone to babysit Sasha. After all, Japanfest only comes once a year. Why miss any chance to revel in Asian culture, represented by blond, blue eyed corporate americans in kimonos? But seriously, I do want to go. I can almost see Lena rolling her eyes now. All week I've been downloading ROMs for my Gameboy Advance emulator, and all of them are RPGs, and I'm stuck in one way or another on all of them. Oh sweet, sweet irony. Oh sweet, sweet autumn, a time when Lili can sit back and eat sugar free/fat free/calorie reduced/artificially flavoured pumpkin pie slimfast shake. ** I didn't go to Japanfest because no one's home to watch my little brother or some other made up shit like that. And then dad comes in and gives me some fucking holier than thou speech straight out of his kiss ass self help books, which all have titles like Carpe Diem! or Become a Real Man in under twenty minutes a day! and the first thing he says to me is "It's all about choices" and proceeds to tell me how it's all Sarah's fault I'm not going because why can't she drop all her plans and hang out here with me at my stupid boring house with my stupid, rude snotnosed little brother instead of going to Stone Mountain and enjoying herself. I swear to God that man is confused out of his mind. So I told him not to talk about my friends that way, knowing he'd fly off the handle, which he did, and called mom and started making up shit like that I was slamming doors and stomping around the house when I hadn't even really got out of bed yet at all except to answer the phone once. And he just called and was like nothing ever happened. Kiss my rear end. I hate watching my little brother. He's such a fucking rude bastard and i swear to God next time he back talks me I'm slapping him into the nearest wall. I am never. ever. ever. ever. EVER having children if they're going to turn out like Sasha. Dad said he tidied up the main floor but there's garbage everywhere. I hate everything right now. Leave me alone.
