Early thunderstorm!

And a pretty good one, too. o_o; That last clap of thunder just rolled all the way down the block, hehe.

I have jury duty tomorrow and don't have to report until 2pm. HAHAHA. Left a voicemail for the boss, who's probably gonna be going "What?!". It's been a long time since I last reported, and I'm sure he thought it was over. Not so, my friend. So anyway, I get to chill in the morning.

Have to call Dr. Boyer and reschedule our next appointment, because I shall be on vacation on August 18th. Two weeks, baby. I won't want to come back to the office. ^^; I'm going to try to save up some money (outside of the savings account, because I'm not using that) in case we end up doing something over those two weeks. I'm sure there will be an amusement park visit, because we go pretty much every year... but I'm not sure what else. Either way, it'd be good to have the extra cash so the burden isn't completely on the parents. Gas sucks these days. I shouldn't be buying anything expensive over the next couple months (that is, if the ZVM behaves itself--I've already had to smack it several times to get it back in line), and as long as nothing goes wrong, I should have a decent amount of money in my account.

I liked today.

I've been watching MGS4 cutscenes. Not too many, but enough to know that I definitely need to get the game. I watched the end because I had to. I know the resolution for Raiden. Also: Go, Otacon!

We were messing around on Subsistence and I finally loaded up Snake vs. Monkey (which Craig would not touch). The ensuing Colonel/Snake codec conversation amused us greatly. We never actually got to play it though, since we had to go help the 'rents in the yard.

We planted a couple more plants, something with pink flowers. (Last week they planted something with purple flowers... probably the same plant.) The one problem with Cymbalta: It causes excess sweating. It's not a problem unless I start sweating. I must sit down and not move for at least ten minutes before it finally stops, shorter if there's a breeze coming at me (which there never is on the subway, so I'm screwed there until I get to work). I don't like sweating. ^^; Still, working in the yard was actually fun. I enjoyed it, anyway. We also saw a bunny after Dad accidentally sprayed it with the hose. First time seeing a wild bunny. It was adorable and I wanted to take it home. Today was pretty much wildlife day: Saw the bunny, saw a bald eagle sitting in the usual tree, saw a falcon sitting on the ground (!), saw a turkey moonwalk out of some tall grass. I'm dead serious about that. It walked backward out of the grass. Then it walked right back into it as if it realized how close it was to the road. XD;

And then I saw no less than three rainbows and some really cool lightning bolts.

Today was an excellent day.

Now, I need to get something to eat. The only thing I've had all day was two hamburgers before we went playing in the dirt, and that was many hours ago.
