Has anyone else read The Marvelous Land of Oz? Or, more to the point, did anyone have a raging crush on Tip? I so did. A sexy, rugged man (you man, but I was 12 or 13 at the time) wearing tights. Stockings. How can you resist that?? You can't.

I was sooo fucking upset when he turned into a girl. ::sigh:: And he's all "Don't worry. Even though I'm a girl, I'm still me!" but then in the next book, he (bah. she) is all like "ooh! Dorothy! Let us have tea! You look splendid in that dress! Time to pick flowers!"

:( Tip!! Your manliness! Ozma killed it.

Dammit.

I'm rereading it online. Here, specifically. Or here. Depending on whether you want to read about ROCKING TIP or some other stupid book. :D

I remembered why I was so particularly attached to Tip. Because in 8th grade, or 7th. . . some time during middle school. . . I had a dream that he came to the school, and everyone liked him, but he really liked me. ^_^ Yay! It was awesome. I don't have good dreams that often. Which is probably why I remembered one that's 5 or 6 years old. XD It was a really, really good dream, though. Yeah. Wow. Good dream.

Eighth grade was also a good year for daydreams. I'm not a vindictive person, so I really have a hard time having violent fantasies--and I've tried, when I'm really angry, thinking it would help exorcise the anger, and I can't. because I usually don't wish ill on people. But my tech class in eighth grade was 5 girls and 15 asshole boys, and I remember I had a fantasy that I knew, like, kung-fu and kicked all their asses. I was rocking. I went in and they teased me and I took them down. :D


In other news, I made chainmail today. :D We had a chainmail guy come to the house. And sit in the TV room and teach us how to make chainmail. Smith rocks!! I have a bracelet now. I just need a clasp. And I made it myself!! Yay! Actually, Katie called me and I had to leave briefly to tell her I couldn't talk because I was making chainmail and I came back in and he'd lengthened my chain significantly, which rocked. But I did most of it myself. And just had to redo two of my rings. (in other words, I just made two mistakes)

Oh, it's cool. I now know how to do European 4-in-1 chainmail. Or at least, I know how to do one length, I know how to lengthen it, and I know the first stage of widening it.

I haven't done any work since I don't know when. . . but today and yesterday I woke up at 6 AM and had freakish dreams. Yesterday they were nightmares, making it highly difficult to go back to sleep. This morning they were just weird. But I was tired and off all day anyway.

Also, I think I'm pregnant. Except I'm still a virgin. So I think God chose me to carry the Messiah. See, I'm late with my period. . . well, only one day late and it's erratic and I've been hormoning lately anyway, but shhhh! And--I've been craving foods. Like, pickles. And scrambled eggs! Thanksgiving I was eating pickles all the time, and since I got back I've been lusting after scrambled eggs. Tomorrow I'm definitely going grocery shopping. Because apart from the craving stuff, i've just been unnaturally hungry!! Well, unnatural for me. Probably normal for anyone else. But I've been getting really hungry every evening, and we don't really have snacking materials. I just had a pack of Pocky today, but tomorrow, definite shopping.

Speaking of which, I think I'm all done! (with Christmas shopping) I sent my agents (parents) to get stuff for Corey and Mike, I think that's the only people I didn't get on Saturday. Oh, and I need Katie to tell me which Fruits Basket manga I got her before so I can get a different one.

by the way, Corey and I have become addicted to Wicked. But Idina Menzel is leaving soon. :(

Oh! Also! Over Thanksgiving break, I asked my mom to sew patches onto the insides of the pockets of my warm winter coat, which had become worn through. Unfortunately, she accidentally sewed the pockets closed. Well, I really wanted to wear the coat. But I simply cannot use a winter coat without pockets. So, last night and this morning. . . I fixed them myself. DX It was awful! Very exhausting and painful. It's more of a provisional fixing, because mom's stitches were so nice and neat. And mine will keep the patches on until Christmas--I think I actually did a very good job, considering! But I want her to redo them more securely. Still. I'm very proud of myself! :D

edit: people, when I said I was a day late with my period, I was joking about the ridiculous impossibility of me getting pregnant by coming up with fake signs of pregnancy, like a late period, when my period is nothing even remotely resembling regular. seriously, people. just kidding.

hmmmm

don't think you are pregnant yet hun. Yay for the sewing and chainmail though, it sounds like such a cool thing to do.

One day late with a period is nothing to worry about. If you are tired, it may be because of that. After all, you are speaking to the queen or erratic periods :-D

Hunger and cravings are often because you need extra vitamins, so take a multivit for a while and it will cover you for the lot. Can't remeber what pickles mean, but it is your body asking for extra vits and mins.

Hugs.

Only one day late is nothing to worry about. It could be stress. Besides, you're going through pre-periodic cravings. So I wouldn't worry.

Never go grocery shopping when hungry. I've made that mistake a few times in my day.

Yay chainmail!

Aw man, why can't I turn into a girl?
