Friday's excursion to Buffet @ Asia (a really cheap but almost uncanningly excellent buffet) with friends was great. And the comic store (almost) next door was wonderful too. It's been a while since I've been in one... almost two years, I think. The guy who used to be behind the counter (but instead was now walking around) was eyeing the group and mumbled something to the extent of: "this ain't a library, kiddies."

I think I was the only to buy stuff. But now I'm down almost $30. And my pleather pants felt uncomfortably hot thanks to the heating weather.

Got a pleasant congrats email from the Duck, a plus to the minus of the noisy construction above my head. Thank yee!

Parents are getting their bathroom remodeled (since it was in severe need of a face/surface lift) so, for the past four days, we've had strange men walking about the upper levels of the house. Hopefully they'll be done and gone by today. I don't particularly like sharing one shower with the entire family.

And unlike the last time we had stuff built onto the house, there was no cute younger assistant to eye-flirt with. Tch.

I should open up a chocolatre. Last night I used up the rest of the baking chocolate and made a semi-abstract chocolate lily the size of a bowl. There was a lot of chocolate to work wit. It was all three-dimensional and hard and wonderful. And, given the lack-luster ingredients, the champagne-chocolate didn't taste too bad at all.

Iron-on transfers are wonderful things. I've resolved myself to make any and all punk-esque clothing which I own. I refuse to wear the faded sweaters and shirts from Hot Topic!

It seems like, next to sis, I'm the only person in the entire group that's ready to forgive and (for the most part) forget. It's old and over and I'm tired of pretense.

I figure that most people out there are inheritly corrupt, manipulative, hypocritic, exploitative, and flawed. No need to hate someone just because they act upon their nature.

Hell, I know that I'm far worse than most of my friends in all aspects. I just keep it all restrained for our sake.

Heh... grandma's eyeing the left-over chocolate with disgust. That's hilarious.
