A long, but fun, day

Today was pretty awesome. ^_^

First off, Mom and I went to go see Blades of Glory. Hilarious movie. I did get a little grossed out a couple of times to the point of feeling like I wanted to throw up, but the rest of the movie was so awesome, I didn't really mind. I already can't wait for it to come out on DVD so I can watch it again.

After that, we did a little shopping at the mall, which of course meant a stop at Barnes & Noble. Since I finished watching the Paradise Kiss anime last night (very good ^_^), I really wanted to check out the manga, but, unfortunately, they didn't have it in stock. :( So I decided to grab all the Aishiteruze Baby volumes they had, which was all of them except for the fifth one, instead, and I'm really glad I did. I've only read the first couple of chapters so far, but I already love it. It's so CUTE! ^_^

We then headed to Best Buy. Incredibly enough, they had the Magic Knights Rayearth boxset I was thinking about ordering from Right Stuf for fifteen dollars cheaper, which then got discounted another 10% thanks to a coupon Mom had. (Can you say awesome?) I also got the new Hayley Westenra CD I have been dying to get, and Mom bought the Firefly boxset as well (yay!). 

The rest of the day was spent going to various other stores -- I didn't get anything else -- and having lunch at Cici's Pizza, but that wasn't the end of my great day. When we got home, the Fruits Basket volume I preordered a while back finally came in! That was just the cherry on my sundae. ^_^

In fact, the only bad thing about today was that while we were gone, my best friend Crystle, who is back in Texas for a visit, came by the house. *sigh* Oh, well. The gang's getting together next weekend for a sleepover, and we've made tentative plans to do something during the week as well, so we'll get together eventually. I just really wish I could have seen her today. I can't wait to see her and Hunter again, and finally meet little Ethan.

Sounds like a model day, I'd say. :-)

The bathroom/toilet paper scene....just ew. I covered my face there...and the kids ice show too.

My 14-y/o was miffed that he didn't get to see it with us, but I'm glad we didn't let him.

Yep, those two scenes were the ones that got to me. Even just thinking about them makes me nauseous.

Ugh.
