So I stopped doing the whole post-everyday-in-November thing I was trying to do this year. Ah well.

Saturday was my birthday. It was pretty average as birthdays go. I didn't do anything fancy - I knew nothing could top last year anyway. I offered to drive Rianna to North Shore, because the day felt a bit empty. I'd woken up with the thought "This time last year, Julia was here", which was a pretty emo way to start the morning. So anyway, I drove Rianna to North Shore and then I picked her up again. On the way home, we went to Chadstone to buy an Xbox 360 and Rockband. Managed to lug it all back home and set it up and all without Mum going ballistic. Success! \o/

Today I helped Mum clean and do gardening things. The house is still all screwed up from half finished renovations and things that haven't been fixed. The sliding door that separates the toilet from the bathroom is broken. The shower sliding door is also broken. Both wooden doors that lead from our front yard to our backyard are falling off their hinges. And as if four broken or slowly dying doors wasn't enough, Dad decided to change our perfectly adequate front door, so he got the renovation guys to rip it out and put a new one in. Except that they haven't gotten a new doorknob for it yet, so our front door is... a door with no handle. Oh yeah.

You know my life is exciting when I'm blogging about doors with no handles.

Right. Time for bed.

Oh wait, one last thing. I watched "Boys Don't Cry" earlier. And omg, such a depressing film. I couldn't watch the second half of it without doing other things like logging onto WoW to distract myself. I didn't cry though, because I think I was too annoyed at Brandon for not having better sense. Which sounds horrible, but still.

Actually, it was Guitar Hero I was talking about, which goes to show how little interest I'd had in it previously-- until yesterday. My brother brought home Rock Band and he and my sister and I played for, like, five hours. I played mostly bass, and usually on easy...

I have idea what the hell they were thinking. None. Coulda come back at another, better, time. Coulda took the girl and ran. Any number of things other than waiting around to get got.

But the best thing about Rock Band is the drums!

The girl didn't wanna run though, in the end. Poor Brandon.

I guess. I mean, in that it's not available elsewhere, I guess. Plus, you're more into drums than I am. If I had to play a real instrument, it'd be guitar first.

Still! Coulda come back at a better time, if at all. Or prepared herself. I'm glad the dudes that did it got caught, but it'd have been better if they'd been the ones that ate lead.
