I should probably try to finish my packing and get some sleep right now, but... yeah. I'm such a procrastinator.

Anyway.

To my disdain, I only finished one of the three writing projects I set out to do. I do have a chapter of Day-to-Day and Just Like Losing finished, but I really want to get another one done before I post that. Also, I don't feel like proof reading. However, if I have a good amount of time tomorrow before we leave using the computer, I'll proof and possibly post. Who knows. I'll prolly be busy for the very first time in a long time tomorrow.

I'm finally going to the dermatologist about my skin problem. It's very dry and itchy. Last time I was diagnosed with ezcema, but this doesn't look quite the same. I may be wrong though. Also, I hope we go to the mall- I want to see if Anchor Blue is still open. Sales... I can't resist them.

Also aiming for a game to get for my DS to keep me busy. It's kind of a war between Rune Factory 2 (the gamestop site has no info at all on the first one) and Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor. If I could, I'd get both, but I don't have the money. But at least they're kinda cheap. Well... The latter is $30 which is around the same price as a normal DS game (it's $35 normally, right?).... Plus I'm thinking of trading in Animal Crossing: City Folk seeing as I bought it and played it twice... maybe three times... no more than five.

But seeing as Gamestop is evil with their trade in prices, I'd prolly get... not much back.

We'll see tomorrow.

Man. I should get to what I was going to do.

I may not sleep tonight.

But that's good, I usually can't sleep on the plane. :D

Okay. So, it's that time of year again. Family vacation time.

As usual I'm simply excited.

And my voice, or mental voice is dripping with sarcasm.

Anywho, here's a list of things I must get or get done before:

- obtain desired musics (list to be detrmined later)
- get some shorts and new shoes
- also get new headphones
- obtain forms of entertainment (books/DS games)
- finish and post a chapter of Just Like Losing, When There's No Day-to-Day Life, and possibly one one-shot.

Well, yesterday Shaun wasn't feeling well, but he still took us around town. We went to lunch at this Irish pub type-place. I don't remember the actual name of the place, but it was also called The Black Rose. I had clam chowder for lunch as well. Twas good. Afterwards we took a pedicab to the aquarium, which was, to my disdain, crowded. The line to get tickets had an hour and a half wait, but, being the crafty family that we are (gosh, that makes us sound bad),  we skipped the line. You see, if you had some sort of membership thing then you can skip the line because you get in for free. :3

Anyway, I mostly had to watch the little one, so I was more preoccupied with watching him than watching the fish, but I got some pictures in. I'm trying to improve on my picture taking skills you see. Most of them are of the penguins. Afterwards we went to the... um... Predential (well, I don't know how to spell it) Center Mall so the little one could get his over-priced Jurassic Park game. This is where the duct tape comes in. He wouldn't shut up about it. Every five minutes he was asking when we were going there. But he got his game so he was happy. But ultimately, I was the one who had the power to say whether or not he could play or not since I'm the one who's got the PS2 in my luggage. But he got to play.

We also went to this beach which was really good walking beach, meaning my shoes didn't sink into the sand. :3 And I found me a piece of sea glass there. :3 We also wrote our names in the sand... Shaun wrote mom's name and it was huge. I mean huge. Me and the little one couldn't compare with it. However, the latter did try.

After that we went to go eat Chinese food, but we had to rush out because Shaun wasn't feeling well.

So today, we're packing up because our flight leaves tonight. I should pack the PS2, but I want a bit more computer time... Well, guaranteed computer time. Besides it only takes five - ten minutes to pack and we don't leave for the airport until five or so. Though maybe earlier because it might be packed today.

Hm. The phone's ringing. Odd.

Also, while I was away I sent postcards to my palies (Amber, Stephu, Amu, Tucker, and Tyler, I was, in the end, unable to get Schroeder's address) and they got there yesterday. It's funny,  on some of them I wrote that I'd be there before they arrived, but in the end, they got there first. xD

Okay.

I found out what's going down.

First, the song I was looking for is called Zero no Chouritsu after all. There was a mix up.

Apparently the song that I heard that I thought was Zero no Chouritsu is a song called Noise, and it too, is a Fatal Frame IV theme song. But Zero no Chouritsu is also a Fatal Frame IV theme, I believe. So this means that Fatal Frame IV has two theme songs. 

Also Zero no Chouritsu has an English version (which was heard in the concert rip I mentioned last entry) which is merely called Zero, which happens to be the name of Amano Tsukiko's next album. So, I wouldn't be suprised if Zero and Zero no Chouritsu are on the album. Noise is probably on there as well.

In other news, I do have Zero no Chouritsu now. Yay~ But the problem now is that... The song is m4a and my MP3 player can't play those files (at least I don't think so) so I have to convert it. But I can't install technology, soooo. Yeah. 

To Do List: 
- Still need to call Amber, Amy and Tyler. 
- Need to reobtain Amber and Tucker's addresses, I lost them. D:
- Check if MP3 player can play m4a files, if not find a way to convert them. 
- Pack carry on.
- Make sure everything's packed.
