Our microwave refuses to make popcorn. No matter how you pop it, it's burnt. Even if you sit next to the damn thing and listen as each corn pops, even if you open the door right when it says you should, it's burnt. YUCK! I made popcorn to eat while watching Dead Like Me and I had to throw away 80% of the bag. Just yuck. *sigh* If I wasn't so lazy I'd use the air popper. But I only do that for movies, if I'm motivated enough.

I had a stupid shoe week. For some reason, I forgot that I am unable to wear any kind of heel. I'm just not built that way. But that didn't stop me from wearing my red shoes with my red skirt on Wednesday. Gave me a blister on my left foot. Then yesterday I wore my black heels with my really long pants...didn't bother to put on pantyhose (yes I'm that dumb). Bottom of my foot, very very raw. Then Al called and asked us to come help move his stuff, so I wore my sandals. But apparently, there was a start of a blister on my big toe on my right foot, so by the time we got home, I had that nasty thing bulging out. Just ew. My feet are not in good shape at this moment.

Sorry to gross you out there. Hope you weren't eating anything while you read that. And I *really* hope that you weren't eating burnt popcorn while you read that...yeah.

Man, my hand smells like burnt popcorn, that's just nasty.

Adrian ordered Vol. 2 of Aqua Teen Hunger Force with his left over Borders giftcard. Very cool. We went over to Borders today but they were charing $30 for Vol 1, and you can get it on Amazon (and most other stores) for $25 and under. We went to Toy R Us and Target to check out the new Star Wars toys, and I must say, I'm a bit pissed off about this whole "Classic Trilogy" edition. It's a freakin' action figure, just on "old fashioned" carding and they are charging $9.99 for it! wtf. Look Hasbro/LucasToys, I know when I'm being taken advantage of. I mean, the "classic figures" are supposed to look like the originals but they don't, they are the same as the ones they make today except their arms are not bent. Why why WHY should I pay another $5 for that??? HM?

Yeah, so I'm waiting on purchasing those.
