all alone

So here I am, at my dad's house (as opposed to being at Mom's) as I am every other weekend. Blake went to the Golden Throne game. I went last year. Once is enough for me. I usually do go the Homecoming football game or whatnot, just 'cuz I'm like 4 blocks away and... I dunno, there's something about sitting in those bleachers watching a stupid game and eating over priced snacks with your only friend, knowing that hundreds of students have sat here and watched the same stupid game and ate the same over priced snacks and hung out with the only person who will tolerate them. If the Lewiston vs. Clarkston football game is at home, I'll watch it. It's like, a 103 year old tradition. But Golden Throne seems stupid to me. Basketball, too. Football I don't mind, if it's live. I despise it on TV. Looks fake. Also the idea of the gold toilet is retarded.
Uh, yeah. Waiting for the new shirt.woot, which...yeah, I'm obsessed. I used to spell 'obsessed' like 'upsessed' in like 7th grade. In 7th grade I died my hair different colors so people would notice me, too. Now I don't care...anyway, last night I was going to buy the new shirt.woot which was this turtle one, Ninja Turtle referance, at like midnight but I decided not to, because if the first one I bought, On the Prowl, with a tiger, if I got that in the mail and it didn't fit me well I would get the turtle one in a bigger size, yeah, but it sold out by the next morning. I was all bitched about that for a while, then I figured out I could buy it again for 15, but whatever. Mom says she'll buy it for me if I help her pack for the new place.
I downloaded some Iggy Pop music, because of the Iggy/Bowie connection and I started listening to Lust For Life, which...sounds like a good song but it's the song they use on one of those cruise ship commercials? and that ruins it. Forever. Garh. However, I am quite liking Iggy Pop and I like Bowie more and more. Heard Ch-Changes on the radio the other day...102.9 Classic Rock, best radio station EVAH. Rock 'n Roll Suicide is good, and Please Mr. Gravedigger creeps me out. Life on Mars? is really good and so's, oh, the Major Tom song....SPACE ODDITY! Right, right...Kody comes up to me one day, back before summer started, hands me his iPod and says, "this is the best song ever listen to it" and I did and it was. Thanks, Kody, for introducing me to Bowie. Cousin Chelsie, however, was the one who introduced me and Blakers to Flight of the Conchords...to that we owe her.
I'm addicted to Quantum Leap and should probably just start a blog on Leap and only Leap. Last night, I watched the one Sam leaped into a retarded young man named Jimmy. I liiiked this. Al in this was great. D'yknow what pisses me OFF about Quantum Leap? Sam. I love him, but sometimes he's a fucking dumbass. SAM YOU HAVE A FRIEND WHO NOBODY ELSE CAN SEE STOP TALKING TO HIM IN PLAIN SIGHT. Honestly. Al will show up (what's with his clothes also but forget about it i love al) and Sam will start talking to him! With people around! ARGHHHH. How does he not get, like, locked up for being psycho? Oh, show... This was a good epi because it gave Al some backstory. Little sister who was retarded, too, but their mom left them and so did their dad and they sent his sister, Trudy, to an "institution" and little Al to an orphanage. Anyway, when he got out he went to look for her but, this part got me almost crying, when Al goes, "She was gone Sam-pneumonia they said. How does a 16-year-old girl die from pneumonia in 1953?" But he liked, screamed it, and I was all. Aww, sad Al.
I'm trying to stagger Quantum Leap DVDs so I don't watch all of them in like one week...which I kind of did already. But Season Three's 40 bucks and maybe Daddy will find a deal on ebay for me but until then, I'm outa luck. And Season Three looks good, Sam leaps into...himself! when he's young! Whootwhoot. I like how, throughout Season Two that have to reiterate stuff in Season One. A lot of these epis are Sam having to get some girl to fall in love with him or save a marriage or a woman's future. Laame. Like in The Pretender Season One, where Jarod is just saving a lot of families where the dad has been killed for, like, finding out some evil guy's secret. Man. Quantum Leap and The Pretender are kind of alike...huh...and...MacGyver...I think I have a complex or something...MASH only sort of fits here, though. And Stargate, neither. Those are the shows I own on DVD. I bought The Pretender on never having seen an episode. And MASH on seeing a few and loving it. And Stargate for...well, MacGyver. It's got Richard Dean Anderson.
Gonna go watch some more Leap. Feel less alone.
