Another journal

So I've got an account here on blogspot or whatever now as well as Livejournal http://jelarin.livejournal.com/which is the oldest, myspace, http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=16514743 and Facebook http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1527154180&ref=profile . Also I have an art site where I post pictures I've drawn or colored.
Okay, the last journal I posted 1/7/09. Since then, Well the seventh was a Wednesday. That day I went to Ross's house because I had talked to Danny before and he said he would meet me there and then we could hang out. But they had this new dungeon game version of Munchkin the card game that is like a parody of D&D. After waiting and watching them play for a few hours, I figured Brenda would be off of work, so I called her. It turns out that she had already called me and we had talked about me doing a painting for her to help decorate her house. So I went over to her place and we went to Michaels to buy the canvases, the thin kind and then went to Walmart and she bought the movie she really wanted "Get Smart" with Anne Hathaway. Anyway, by then it was late, so we promised to think of ideas for the paintings and I went home.

The next day was Thursday, usually the day I go and do laundry at my parents house. I did, but while my first load was in their washer, it started to over flow. We did not notice, however, until Bridget my sister got up from the couch where we were watching something, and went to go to the bathroom which is right across from the laundry room. She checked, and realized from the locked door and sounds that my other sister Heidi was in there taking her shower. Then Bridget said "Hey, why are my socks wet?" She looked down and saw the dampness on the carpet. I looked over then and could see it was coming from the laundry room with its closed door. I opened the door and bunch of water came out. There was a box and the barstool in there that got wet. Later from looking at the box we could see that there had been two inches of water. Well, that was that for my clothes, I would have to get them washed somewhere else. We had to move all the water out into the garage and dry the carpet with lots of towels and then ring them out and use them again; it was hard work. Dad and then Mom when she got home both called a guy they know in their ward that fixes things so he could come fix the washer. Mom was upset when they didn't get called back until the next day and guy said he would come on Saturday. Anyway, I decided I would go over to Ross's because he lived somewhat close to my parents house, a little east of the Sunrise mall, while my parents are a little west of it. I thanked him and did my laundry there. Hung out and stuff too. I might've ended up vaccuuming his carpet because mostly no one vaccuums it and it gets pretty dirty, and I don't like seeing it or walking on it. Um, so I think that was it for that day, went home and to sleep then.

The next day was Friday. On Wednesday Danny had right before I'd left said he was sorry that we hadn't been able to hang out and that I should call him friday to hang out for real. So I forgave him. I had taken the game Rock Band with me on Wednesday, but no one played. On friday I took it over to Ross's and took Bridget with me. Bev, Ross's girlfriend also wanted to play, but was sad that I hadn't brought the drums. I called Danny and by midafternoon he was ready to go he had cleaned his room or whatever, and I went to go pick him up. When we got back he also played rock band with us. I usually only do the singing. I can't really go past easy on drums or guitar. But the singing I find very easy, even when I didn't know the songs. Anyway, I think that was it and when all the fun was done we went home.

The next day was Saturday the 10th. My brother Lance's 18 year old birthday. He didn't have his birthday party until the next week because he hadn't been doing his chores. In any case, Jeff missed a Deadlands RPG that day, and I went to Dave's place to be in his RPG. We call it Davenloft, because he uses the Whitewolf rules modified by him in a D&D setting. My character journal for that is by Neckra Davis on Livejournal.

I don't have anything written on my calandar that I'm using to help me remember things until the 15th a Thursday. It says I hung out with Alura, and so I did. I went to her place in Orangevale and saw her two cute kitties. Tabby the huge orange moody one, and Little One the part siamese petite playful one. We watched the movies Wall-E because I hadn't seen it yet, and then Short Circuit because I knew that I had seen it, I just couldn't remember anything about it besides the fact that there was a robot in it. These two robots look a lot alike. Alura gave me back the fifth season of Angel that I was letting her borrow even though she hadn't gotten to see it yet, she was just too busy, and it had been like 3-6 months. Anyway, we had fun and I borrowed Chrono Trigger from her and Fable the first one from her housemate Gary. I tried playing chrono trigger, but my ps2 wasn't recognizing the memory card. I shall have to try again, or try to fix it somehow. But her boyfriend Jon the Poofhead was coming over and she had to get ready and shower because they were gonna go on a date or some thing, so I said bye and left.

Friday the 16th says nothing, I think I did my laundry that day, and they had gotten the machine fixed. The 17th was a Saturday and the Primary was having a stake all teachers and leaders meeting at the Stake Center in the morning. So I went there and they showed us about new and more fun teaching methods, that would help the kids who are too wiggly or bored. They gave us egg sausage casserole stuff that was tasty and then we went home. On Sunday after church Jeff had to start his work trip to Merced. Scott Dunnaway and Paul Bates came over to Home teach me and then drove me to Brenda's place where we met Esther and then we visit taught and home taught Brenda. We talked about a bunch of stuff and had fun.

On monday the 19th Iwent to my parents house for family home evening, but Mom kept interrupting the lesson that she was teaching. And then she got all angry when we pointed that out and told her we wanted her to just tell the lesson without going off on tangents. After while all the arguing got to me and I threatened I woudl leave if she just didn't stick to the lesson and be serious. She didn't, so I left. I told them I would be back later though, because I was going to Ross's house to see if they still had any good Gamecube games for my brother Jared to borrow. He had just bought a gamecube and wanted to play Zelda Four Swords, which I had seen at Ross before. So I drove over there and asked, but it hadn't been their game and it was back with its owner Mathew now. I decided I would stay and watch the new episode of House on his cable. After House was over Bev wanted to go to Billards to play pool with other women because Monday was ladies night and free if the table was all women. But Brit, Steph and any other friends she called weren't available, so it was just her, me, Scott (Ross's younger, bigger brother) and Matt. We went there to the place on Garfield, and it was very busy because that had been President's Day I think. We waited for about half an hour before deciding to leave. She said that there had still been at least five people ahead of us on the list. So we went back, I took the gamecube game they had which was Zelda: Ocarina of Time and took it back to my parent's house and showed it to Jared. It was all scratched up so he gave me three dollars to have Fair Game clean it. I went home and to bed then because I had a job in the morning working at Starr King Elementary school.

Tuesday I worked. Wednesday Esther and I tried to visit Tracie Barbour our new visiting teachee, but we could even get in to leave her a note because she was in a gated community. Esther said she would mail it to her. She we left notes for Ellie too I think and went home. The next day was the 22nd my parents 26th anniversary. They were going to go out to eat on Saturday though to celebrate. On Saturday the 24th was Jeff's 25 year old birthday. I made him an eggy sandwhich for breakfast and I had made a chocolate cake the nigth before that he was very happy with, but he had to work, and I'm not sure he even wanted a birthday party. Dave had his RPG that day too and the journal is on livejournal Neckra_Davis.

I don't really have anything of note written until Thursday the 29th. Heidi had asked me if I could pick up Rayna's kids from school because she couldn't do it anymore because of a College class she was takign with Bridget at that time. I said yes, and talked to Rayna about it. But on that day she canceled because she hadn't gone to work on account of her getting sick. But she wanted me to do it the next week, and I promised to call her. I did my laundry and went home. Friday I was a little sick, or sick of doing stuff so I stayed home and slept about 15 hours. Saturday the 31st I remembered there was a Blood Drive at Sunrise. So I got up and hung out with Jeff for a few hours, but he didn't want people to stick him with needles, he wanted to stay home and be lazy and rest and stuff. So I went and asked Bridget, Lance and Heidi if they wanted to come too. Bridget said she couldn't because the next day was fast sunday and she had to go to swim team on Monday. Heidi and Lance came though. We got T-shirts. Sunday was fast sunday and I got to go to relief society. That means I need to get the lesson ready for next week. Um, Then there was Monday, Jeff got back and gave me the rent money. I deposited the money and wrote the check for rent. I was short 20 dollars thought so I called Brenda and asked her if she could pay me in advance for the the paintings I'm going to do for her. She said sure and came by Tuesday after Mutual. I said thanks and we talked a little on the doorstep, but it was late so we said goodbye.

Tommorrow I need to pick up Rayna's kids from school and do my laundry and write Neckra's last journal. This saturday will be the next game.
