Weekend Randomness

Since the weekend will be officially over in 1 hour, thought I'd get this one in. First things first: Cartoons were good. Woke up late and missed my early morning ones. Avatar came on around noon though. Then there were 2 Yugi Oh GX's on, but they were 'new' re-runs. Actually the new ones are on at 4pm every weekday. I guess if you only watch on Saturday, then it's new. Teen Titans had a cute little episode on how they all met and formed their team. Naruto's getting better. I usually end up missing it, as I don't watch many of the cartoons on before 10pm. On adult swim, my favorite, they had new episodes of Full Metal, and Ghost in the Shell. I lost track of that wierd one, so not sure if it was new or not. I got distracted and actually missed s-CRY-ed twice. Oh well, the important thing is that Full Metal is getting better as they go and soon they may even make a Philosipher's Stone.

Was incredibly disappointed in the animation Photoshop program. I'm sure I'll try again. I did expiriment with every damn setting, just was crappy. I use a really good photo editing program to make any adjustments that may be needed in pics before I try to animate in another program. It's also where I resize them. I never had that problem with any other animation program, that's why I don't like that one much.

After Steven's 3rd birthday, Mikel asks me every SINGLE day if it's his birthday. Then he makes me promise to tell him when his birthday is. I guess he's too young for any real concept of time. He has to wait a whole month after Christmas. We have these big sets of interconnecting stick things they will be spreading all over the house on Christmas Eve. Some people wait til Christmas day to open all presents, we don't. Family presents on the Eve, Santa on the Day. He's still not real sure who Santa is, but if he gets presents, well that's OK with him. I have been showing him Santa movies, but well, he's still 4. School isn't until next fall.

Been seeing if I can 'break' my computer. Been having no problems with it. Diablo runs fine for hours. It's our favorite. Played online the other night, just to see, and had virtually no dragging. Beyond what you would expect with DSL. Which was virtually non-existent. Haven't tried the scanner yet.

Damn near went crazy yesterday. I was bored. I need new books. Should have gone to the library. I've gone beyond the point where I can re-read all my books. I've done that too many times in the last 2 months. All I have to do is see the title and I remember the whole damn thing! UGH!

I've need to start getting even more creative in my cooking. I've been getting bored with my food. Only so many variations when you put salt, pepper, garlic powder in everything. I'm a throw shit together kind of cook, but I think I need to be doing soups. It's getting cold and hubby has been showing signs of wanting soup in his lunch. I need some chicken broth, I think. I finally learned how to do dumplings. I really could be better at it, but it still tastes good. I'd really like a taco soup. Gotta have some cheap, cheap corn torts for that. Otherwise you don't get nice crispy strips. I've thought about making Christmas cookies, but every time I do the kids manage to squirrel them away or eat them all. They are starting to tell on each other though, and it does help a little. LMAO!

Ah, well. Have a nice monday!
