Aug. 17th, 2004 10:03 pmLouise is engaged!!!!
Bill proposed to her when they where in Florida... on the beach at sunrise with a grand piano! They're getting married in December.
I'm happy for her. Most of my older friends are either married or getting married. Meanwhile I haven't had a boyfriend since 1999 and he was a jackass. I don't really care about not having a "special person"; I'd rather focus on my studies and work than drag around some clingy boyfriend. What would be the point of having a boyfriend? Sex? I could honestly care less. Kids? I can barely afford to live as is. Companionship? Yeah right.
But if someone can be happy with someone else, all the more power to them.
I got my watch today. They told me that the shipment was coming in today.... which turned out to be a shipment of ONE watch. It apparently came in an hour before I arrived and I managed to buy it, resulting in me proclaiming "I win! Go me!" in the middle of the store. It's really a guy's watch (read: BIG dial) but me likes. I also got candy (root beer flavored candy drops from The General Store), a new DVD crate and first volume of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (probably the only easy to access form of cyberpunk outside of books right now). The last one was more of an impulse purchase. I figured it was only $30 and I love Tachikomas. Whoo. Now, if only the Fullmetal Alchemist DVDs were out now.
I'll probably only collect the GITS:SAC volumes with episodes I want, although the Complex episodes make that a bit annoying. Plot and all.
