I am so glad I live an essentially drama-free life.

People have been here for a cumulative of 6+ hours now.  Last night it was just a bunch of yelling and angriness and my mom's just trying to comfort people, calm them down, help.  Poor dad is stuck there and is now also trying to help.  Thank goodness Luke is being so good and amusing himself.  I am avoiding downstairs until there is a need to go downstairs.  Good thing I have PLENTY to do in my room like UNPACKING, CLEANING, and READING on the Kindle app of the ipod!

This Kindle is amazing.  I wanted the amazon kindle but having this is so much better because the technology is 1) less expensive, 2) more useful, 3) i can play games, check fb, e-mail etc. Of course this is limited by wireless and there is wireless about 98% of the time here so I'm good to go!

I don't like being so dependent on technology right now but I do love having access to books on the go.  I bought The Hobbit (Josh's recommendation) and Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus (Which I've read before but it's nice to have it on the kindle because I can highlight things and dehighlight them, bookmark, etc. and it'll remember it all for me on a separate page...and I can do searches...)

Hm...My room is such a mess and I can barely see the floor.  The garage isn't doing so well either.  I think I'll work on my room first and then the garage.  The only time I've gone downstairs since yesterday afternoon was to pick up furniture from Edwina today (1 coffee table, 1 tv stand, 1 lamp, 2 pillows like the hamster one!!!, and 3 binders).  Good thing I remember where her apartment is and that the highlander was unloaded yesterday (took a while).  Why do I have so much junk? I never thought I was all That high maintenance but I do like a decent amount of stuff.  At least I am not super wasteful.

So I still need a fouton/foldout couch, new bed, kitchenware, desk/chair, and maybe a shelf.

eeeeeh! so much to do but I have so much time! hahaha...I am so tempted to just lay around and read instead of clean but I am sure I'd feel much better if I can actually see my room.

I am very happy today, even though it's like everybody downstairs is upset, crying, angry, noisy or something.  Good thing Luke doesn't care and if he wants to leave them I know he'll just wander up here.  I hope it's into my room and not some other room because he has recently discovered how to lock doors from the inside so he may lock himself in somewhere...Nobody is quite sure where the keys are to the doors...maybe I'll tape the lock on the doorknob. Good idea? I think so.
