So I had quite the adventure today. I needed to go Mother's Day shopping at the mall (because yesterday my mum took me there and showed me exactly what she wanted... so yeah, not much of a surprise as to what she's getting), and I was going to have Andrew take me but he'd already done his shopping so I figured hey, I have a license, there's a car free, I'll just go by myself. So I'm driving to the mall, nothing really exciting there. Until I accidentally go through what I'm pretty sure is a red light.

The thing is, I'm not really sure whether it was red or not. I know there was a light there, but I didn't notice what color it was until I had already gone through it, and the only indication that I had done something wrong was that I practically got run over by a turning pickup truck. So then once I realize what I might have done I have a huge OH SHIT WHAT HAVE I DONE moment, and I definitely start hoping that there were no cops around to see it. So I drive the rest of the way to the mall feeling like I'm on the run from the law. It felt kind of badass, actually. From there the shopping trip proceeds normally. I bought my Mother's Day gift and then I went on the Quest for Another Denim Skirt, which took me to Kohl's and Old Navy, and I found success at Old Navy after discovering that there is only one style of (weird, really short) denim skirts in the juniors section of Kohl's.

So now I have another unsolved mystery in my life: Was The Light Red When I Went Through It? (The other unsolved mystery, of course, is the oft-mentioned How Did Final Fantasy X Get On My Lost Season Four Finale Tape?)

 i had quite a lovely evening last night. i went out to applebee's for dinner with my mom and then we went shopping at kohl's. i got a pair of pants, some socks, and a ZOMG COMFY fleece hooded thing. then we went to best buy and bought season 8 of friends. then we went home and watched friends for two hours. it made me feel shiny to be absorbed into all the zomgrossandrachelarehavingababy! woes.

and all of that was probably why i had a dream last night that i got pregnant when i was 13. it was kind of sketchy. and the really annoying thing was that the father of the baby was never mentioned in the dream. and it was all in a flashback-type structure: it began with all of us looking at a scrapbook, and it began when we were 13 and we were all remembering that i was pregnant back then. and then it kind of flashed back to when i was pregnant, but i don't really remember anything else. and then i had a strange harry potter dream that involved harry dying and then being resurrected and then visiting his 15-year-old son. and then there was another dream about dancing in latin class, except the goth couple from the amazing race was there.

also, speaking of reproduction, katelyn things i have promiscuous mouth cells. (wow, i just realized that that could be a bit awkward if it wasn't having to do with a lab in biology class.)

i really, really want to come up with a better name for the citadel of destiny as soon as possible. too bad i don't have my latin book, because i'm sure i could find something in there. i really want to use "vocari" (latin for "to be called") somewhere, either as a place name or last name, but it's too close to sari's last name (before she marries perrin, that is) and reminds me of the volturi from twlight/new moon/eclipse. i really want to commandeer "nibelheim" for something, but it's not proper to commandeer names from "final fantasy vii."

the song that i'm currently listening to is three seconds short of twenty minutes long. this amuses me for some reason.

not sure if the quote dialogue of the day is totally accurate, but it amuses me so much.

[EDIT: zomg this is pretty much the most entertaining/funny thing ever. click here for the "brain hurt" pairings generator. it basically mixes fandoms up for some ridiculous pairings. here are some of the funny ones that i've gotten: carmen sandiego/hagrid, dominic monaghan (actor who played charlie on lost)/gary (the snail from spongebob squarepants), professor flitwick/serafina pekkala(witch from his dark materials trilogy), rachel green (from friends)/mon mothma (side character in star wars episode vi), luna lovegood/albus dumbledore, mickey mouse/boss nass (gungan leader from star wars episode i), moaning myrtle/queen lillian (the queen in the second and third shrek movies, buddy (from elf)/carmen (from sisterhood of the traveling pants).]

quote dialogue of the day:

rachel: well, apparently condoms are only effective 97% of the time.
ross: ...what? well, they should put that on the box! *runs to look at condom box* well, they should put it in big, block letters! i'm going to complain to the company!
rachel: ...ross, forget about the condoms.
ross: well, i might as well have!
