We just got back from a nice vacation, where we got to visit with our friends and attend the wedding of two of our friends. This was back in the area where my fiance and I both lived for about 9 years before moving to Seattle...

scarywhitegirl Oh wow, that's a GREAT story! That would definitely be pretty trippy, and so nice of your brother to NOT mention it in advance. :)

scarywhitegirl Yeah, I know that a big part of the reason I was all gung ho about packing on Sunday night was that I was ready to be home and have things back to normal. We got into the apartment, I turned on the computer and unpacked REALLY fast, and the boy was watching...

I'm so happy that my fiance suggested that I look at the NIN site yesterday, because I discovered that their tour starts in British Columbia on Friday, and then brings them to Seattle the next night! So even though it was very...

scarywhitegirl Yeah, I was VERY surprised that we could still get decently good tickets just a few days before the show! I think we could have even gotten floor seats, but I didn't want to be involved in any mosh pit happenings. I am too small and fragile. :)

scarywhitegirl Interestingly, I think Trent says he's never coming back to a lot of places. Before the 1995 show in St. Louis, he had played another venue there, and because of the venue, there was no mosh pit or much craziness going on--it's an old, beautiful theater, and...

I'm on my first trip ever to California, and staying on the coast in northern California. This is also the first time I've seen the Pacific Ocean! I haven't been to the ocean in quite a while, and I forgot how much I love it. I...

scarywhitegirl I think before this trip, it had been more than 10 years since I had been to the ocean--I'm pretty sure the last trip I took to the ocean was when my family went to Virginia Beach many years ago. It's amazing how the smell stays in your brain, though. As...

scarywhitegirl I live in Seattle, which is several steps removed from the ocean--similar to what you're describing, I think. But Seattle isn't a popular beach, at least not most parts of it! :)

scarywhitegirl I've taken a few pictures already, and I'm hoping for better weather later in the week to get some more pictures. Today it was sunny and bright until I was about 2 miles from the coast, and then it turned cloudy and gray! I've also been to Myrtle Beach,...

scarywhitegirl Oddly enough, I can't remember ever seeing palm trees when I was at the beach. I guess most of the beaches I've been to are fairly northern beaches! I have also never been ON the ocean. Just looked at it from the shore or gone out maybe 10-20 feet to play...

My fiance and I went to see "The Dark Knight" last night at the midnight showing. It was the first movie I've ever gone to see at a midnight showing, and I almost couldn't stay awake for it! I was just SO tired by the end that it...

scarywhitegirl It does seem pretty likely that midnight shows would get a lot of glitches. The operators are working later than usual, the movies are fresh out of their cases, etc. The raccoon one is just the biggest fluke glitch in the world. :)

scarywhitegirl Every time I've been at a theater when the movie has broken, they've offered a refund. I don't know if the theaters near me have always just been super accommodating or if they were concerned they'd have a riot on their hands!

scarywhitegirl That is a pretty crazy coincidence! Scary, too, though, because a falling ceiling tile would hurt a lot more than a falling balloon. :)

I know that different cultures view alcohol consumption differently, but how much wine do you consider too much wine? I have a friend who finishes a two liter bottle of wine just about every day. He drinks this while sitting by...

scarywhitegirl Oddly enough, we rarely have alcohol in the house either. J has discovered that he can't stomach beer anymore--he thinks it's the hops, because he does okay with wheat beer. I must have always gotten lucky with the roommates I had. "MINE" always worked, and...

scarywhitegirl Well, keep in mind that it cost us a LOT to move (yeah, I think $3,000 might be about right, all told) because we had all of our stuff shipped, and then hired movers to move it in. But it is expensive to get a moving truck and then drive it the 2,000-ish miles...

scarywhitegirl It's definitely the sort of game that would be much more fun with a crowd. I think it will be okay with two of us, though not as much fun. But we need some sort of multi-player game. :)

scarywhitegirl We were given an X-Box by some friends who just got a 360, so J was satisfied with being a generation behind on that one. And he has no desire at all to own a Wii. :) He's playing Assassin's Creed like a madman lately... what's the stupid glitch? He will...
