Going to bed.

I'm tired. XD Today's been a long day. I did get clothes, though. Got my hands on three pairs of jeans that actually fit my hips (no more shopping in juniors for me... they're way too skinny) and some other things... and a huge blue umbrella since all my umbrellas have something wrong with them.

Before I go, I'll say this: I bought a game called Nervous Brickdown for the DS, because I'd seen it at J&R and done some research on it, and an updated version of Breakout/Arkanoid/Alleyway intrigued me immediately. This game is very, very close to knocking Picross off its pedestal. XD It's fun. It's REALLY fun. The different modes are inventive, and despite the fact that no matter what you do, you're always hitting the ball with your paddle, it feels different in each level. The soundtrack is awesome, too. One of the levels, Speed, really does make me nervous, but it's still fun.

Snaaaake, it's a snaaaaaake~

GUESS WHAT. We totally had a snake in the car with us on the way to my uncle's place in the Bronx. All the way from PA. When we went out yesterday, Mom put the shopping cart out on the ground because we weren't going to need it, and this tiny snake must have crawled into it. And the shopping cart wasn't in the back of the car where we usually keep it, either, since we had tons of stuff for Uncle Arnie's new apartment. At any point, the thing could have climbed out and been all OVER that car. XD

He was cute, but very, very nervous at the lack of grass and dirt, and probably looking for predators; I'd opened up the cart and he fell out on the sidewalk, hehe.

Picture's small, so here he is. I took it on my cell phone camera, and I wouldn't get any closer than that. He was already hissing and glaring at Mom's leg whenever she walked past him. Seriously, she'd been trying to get him over to the tree and was trying to push him toward it with something, and he got pissed, so everything she passed his line of sight, his head would whip around in her direction. He actually snapped at her foot once. XD;; He'd finally gotten over to the tree when we came back downstairs. We wanted to take him someplace else, a park or something, but neither of us wanted to pick him up. ^^;

Thanks Erin!

Passing this along, because this cat did indeed make me happy.
