after 9+ mind-numbing hours of E.V.O, a game for the SNES that myself, my brother, and an old friend could never beat, i have risen triumphant.

i finally beat the fucker. if no one knows what it is, it's a game where you start out as a fish and eventually evolve into a human. here's a shot of me in the dinosaur stage. i'm a giraffeicorn!

KBC (who has nothing online i can really link to, the bastard) has been God of the Internet lately, and blessed me with not only a really good OS X emulator, but also all kinds of games, and movies, and his charming personality and wit as entertainment.

i suppose i should touch briefly (hah hah) on the subject of being back in my hometown. The Place That Smells Sounds Like "Vagina".

honestly, i don't know what to say. it's boring here. as usual. i've seen so many people i used to know that, really, i'm good for the next 22 days. and a few years after that.

the fair / carinval / exhibition is here until the 8th. i want to go and try and take some pictures. plus, tons of people i know will be there. i don't know if that's good or bad yet. i really only want to be in regina to see my family and a few others. i don't feel like having everyone know i'm back. because then the wrong people find out and... yeesh.

i forgot to mention a while back that my aunt and uncle had their third child, hunter dakota sackman (i said it sounds like an SUV name...) about 3 weeks ago. he's not broken in this picture, just sleeping very soundly :)

luckily, my grandmother got to meet her newest grandson before she passed away on thursday afternoon, from lung cancer. my grandma was by no means 'old'. she was 61 when she was diagnosed, in feb. she died not even 6 months later. she had just retired 3 years ago to her house in the mountains.

apprently seeing my grandma's truly horrifying state in the hospital wasn't enough to get my grandpa, or father to stop smoking, however. i guess it doesn't matter when both of them already have had cancer. three cancer patients, all on one side of the family.

wonderful. i know what's in store for me :/ at least my grandma isn't suffering anymore, and now she's with her other deceased children. so, again, i love you grandma. :)

i'll be back in alberta on tues / wed / thurs for the funeral services. i can't say i'm looking forward to meeting all of my extended family for the first time. tyler said it was ... 'something', and i don't know if i'm ready for that.

in lighter news, it looks like i may be going back to school this fall afterall. *crosses her fingers* karma owes me big time right now, so i hope everything goes through. nah, i'll make it go through.

i miss [info]skwerrel pretty badly now. and my cats, too. sleeping alone really kind of sucks. i forgot how much i hate it. what's even more depressing, is the fact that the floor i'm sleeping on is more comfortable than my bed at home, in hamilton. yes, i do believe it's time to invest in a new mattress. *sighs dreamily* one day!

okay, as if any of you actually give a shit about my actual life. but i thought i'd throw it out there to see what kind of response it got. i won't be surprised if it's nothing. ;) this entry brought to you by pointless html! it's all the rage @ 2:30 AM!

have a good weekend, everyone. (:
