WARNING: LONG DIRECTIONLESS RAMBLE AHEAD!!!!
So this weekend was when your family is supposed to come visit you. My mom was the only one that came, but that's alright, everyone was busy with work.
It's funny, even though I was a little homesick earlier this week, I didn't really feel any homesickness from seeing my mom. We talked for a little bit about a family reunion with the French-Canadiens (my mom's mother's family) that I missed, about the state of things at home (the same), and how I was doing (fine).
We went out to eat at the Rutland Buffet because I was going through withdrawel from no General Tso's Chicken.
The food was okay. Nothing compares to Joy Wah. After dinner we stopped at a used book store and I picked up Deus-X by Joseph Citro (Lake Monsters was decent, so I'll give this a shot), Foundation by Isaac Asimov (I'm surprised I havent read it yet too) and a goosebumps book I was missing from my collection. Obligatory don't judge me sentence here. I figure if I get back in the mood for reading before A Feast for Crows comes out I'll be prepared. After that it was a quick hug good-bye. All in all, it was a pretty standard affair.
Television and reading has conditioned me to beleive that something special should go on during stuff like that, but its all so...ordinary. *flicks music to 'The Kids Aren't Alright' by The Offspring - hey, its the closest I have to emo angst on my computer*
I still spend to much time on this computer, I am an active poster on four forums and could sign up to more. Urg. I don't want my life to turn into Shiroi's.
One activity my suite has gotten into is wiffle ball home run derby. We got to the tennis courts and try to hit balls over the fence. Myself being the kid in gym who needed the T set up, am in last, but I'm improving. Surprisingly none of the tennis players mind our taking one of the courts as our field.
I've rambled suffiently long enough. Oh wait, I found another disturbingly hilarious webcomic. Sam espcially should get a kick out of it: The Perry Bible Fellowship
Well I'm off to studying for a politics test.
