So this week has been insane.
1) Vicky and Hillel drove out here from LA for AniZona. Vicky and Hillel were amazing; the con sucked ass this year. Except for the dealer's room. I got three keyblades. I am joining the masses of Kingdom Hearts fans. Shoot me in mercy. We watched Borat and would not stop quoting it the entire weekend. They need to come back like RIGHT NOW. And Vicky is infecting me with the urgent NEED for a ball-jointed doll.
2) Homework and stuff for the internship piled up like nobody's business, along with two tests.
3) Emotional bullshit related to post below in retrospect was also the result of me having a bad night.
4) My sister almost died on the physics trip; the bus almost flipped because the bus driver was too fucking stupid to stop the bus after the wheel started sending up sparks.
5) My sister brought home a stray kitten. Her friend had found him and was going to put him down, so she stuck him in her purse and brought him home. Dad was chill with it. He (I think it is a he upon close inspection and some internet hunting) is an 8-week-old, gray-and-white (miniature Bastet), polydactyl bundle of terror. I forgot how absolutely insane kittens are. He can go from rag-doll sleeping adorable to completely fucking up-the-wall berserk in one second flat. I love him. He's taken to me and follows me everywhere. I want to name him Ziggy Stardust, but we'll have to see how the family takes to that. I am covered in scratches from head to toe (seriously, he will CLIMB a person from the ground up), so it looks like I've gone cutting-emo. So far Whitey has hissed at him and he has hissed at ME (yes, me, not Whitey) in response, so I think we're off to a good start.
6) My car started smoking on the on-ramp to the 101 from the 202. Seriously, white smoke started pouring out from under the hood during rush hour, so I pulled onto the shoulder of the on-ramp and was goddamn lucky enough to get enough juice out of my broken phone to call my dad. So I spent about half an hour sitting on the concrete barrier watching rush-hour traffic go by. I took pictures of the view; will post later. Some Air Force ROTC (I assume ROTC since we were near ASU and they were young, in fatigues, and had an Air Force sticker on the back of the car) laughed at me and gave the thumbs-up as they passed, a sketch middle-aged man in a convertible asked me if I wanted a "ride" (to which I replied "No, thank you", when I really wanted to say "Sit and spin"), and some little kids with their window down stared at me and proceeded to ask their mother "What is she doing out there?" It was amusing. Long story short, the tow company was busy for two hours, the cops ended up taking it (we intercepted just in time to tell them to take it to the Nissan dealership), and all in all it took the entire evening when I had an assload of work due today. Have yet to hear what happened; I suspect overheating.
7) I saw![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
xcerebraledemax for the first time in forever. We were going to see Aqua Teen, but because of stupid Ironman we couldn't even get on Mill in time (or at all), so we gave up and went to In-n-Out.
8) I went tohilorain's birthday dinner, and missed her the rest of her visit. /cry
9) I broke my phone. It has since been fixed.
10) I want to cosplay Ouran High School Host Club now: either one of the twins, Kyouya, or Haruhi. But that cosplay is ten times more fun with a group.
11) Work presentation today at Brickyard?
12) Need sleep.
