This probably isn't a good idea.

I'm currently home, alone, and watching Paranormal Activity 2. My guess is that I won't sleep for the next two nights, minimum. I'm really getting into the Halloween time of year though, so I feel like I have to watch some scary movies. I also started working on my snack for Cara's annual Halloween party. I'm making a dip that looks like a spide web, but tonight I actually made homemade tortilla chips in the shapes of halloween goodies. We've got ghosts, black cats, pumpkins, and bat.

A lot of things have changed again for me! I FINALLY got a car!! I went with the Camry, in "Aloe Green Metallic" so I named her Vera. Vera and I got in our first bit of trouble today. I got a parking ticket. Woops. All I have is street parking here, and half of the street is metered. I normally get home from work a little before six and have left again by 7:30 am, so I guess I never noticed that you can only park in the metered spots between 6pm and 9am without paying (and on weekends). So I went down to my car today around noon *yay day off* and had a stupid parking ticket on there. Annoying. Anyways, what is MORE annoying is that when I looked at the back of the ticket to see where I send my payment, I don't send it to the city that I live in, I send it to Newport Beach, CA? Really? What the hell do they need with my $15? I'd much rather send it to my city, to say....repave the streets or something? I dont know. That just struck me as being odd.

Also - this just in - I FINALLY have the internet again :-) I've lived in the dark ages (without cable and internet) at home for the last year and survived, and AT&T called me with a great deal on the interwebs (after my neighbor who left his wireless unprotected moved out) so I buckled down and got it. So I can now continue watching NetFlix and paying my bills from home instead of dragging them to and from work all the time. It's like a whole new world... kinda. For me.

Yep - so those are the two big things happening in my life right now.... car and internet...
