Well, yesterday was an interesting day. Snowed like crazy, reportiedly 13 inches or something like that. I did my typical thing of confusing my dad and going outside in the snow to take pictures and the like.
For instance, this was the road behind my house and the cornfields.
It also meant I got called off work, which was fine by my standards. I ended up finding out that they did 16 people and closed at 8. Snap.
But it ALSO meant I got to watch Doctor Who's "End of Time, Part 1", which was epic. Whereas "Waters of Mars" just bummed me out, "End of Time" got me excited. It had adventure, it had High Octane Nightmare Fuel, it had gnarly old people, it had fun, it was great. I'm actually looking forward to next week's epicness, even though it does mean Tennant's departure. But perhaps I've finally made peace with that.
Though there was a part (the High Octane part) that made me scream. I never scream, and even when I do it's more a shout-yell than a shriek. I don't scream at scary things, I don't scream on roller coasters, I don't scream at bug or rodents...but:
Kat: *scream/shout/yell*
Dad: ...What was that?
Kat: ...I screamed?
Dad: Why...?
Kat: 'cause Doctor Who is being freaky...?
Dad: ...Right.
Today, with the roads clear and sun shining, my mom and I went out shopping. Kohls was a bust but Super Target had me in a happy spot. With some money to spend, I picked up Ace of Cakes season 2, Be Kind Rewind, and...some cardstock. Yeah, exciting.
Herein I also learned that my mom knows nothing about the value of DVDs. For instance, she thought it was "ridiculous" that I spent $15 on the Ace of Cakes set. You know, for a full season. ...Yeah.
Now I am starving, Mom is scheming to go out to eat because everyone's going stir crazy, and the last big hoo-rah of Christmas is tonight with the last Movie Sign Rewind, Santa Claus. Depending on the dinner situation, I might be late, but who knows.
