Apr. 13th, 2008 07:03 amScott spent the last couple of days here, and Marie slept over at his house last night.
I gave Libby a call two days ago, and asked her if she could remember anything from the 7th grade End of the Year Dance. Unfortunately, all she remembers is dancing with me, and also with some other boy named Mike Sganga. All I'm able to remember is having danced with her, the way I was dancing, and having left during the song We Are Family. We did talk about other things across the phone, such as when she signed my yearbook and wrote that she would be going to a different school to start 8th grade. Also, she is still going to school at SCCC and due to graduate this year. I told her that I'm currently going to school at Dowling University, but she doesn't know where she'll be going yet. (Normally, I would have contacted Libby through AIM, except that I haven't been using AIM very often.)
Mom made some brownies with toasted vanilla chips yesterday, and also bought Turkish takeout. We were unable to celebrate Dad's birthday on the actual day of his birthday, not to mention that we also had the worst chili she ever made that night.
After we ate dinner, Dad and Scott turned on the TV, and Dad called me and said "It's your favorite show!" He wanted me to guess which one. Marie guessed "Cops", but I'm like "I don't even watch TV." I didn't know which one he was talking about, but then he turned on Beavis & Butthead. I walked away, and he said "What's the matter? Don't like it anymore?" And no, I stopped liking it a long time ago, but it sure has been a long time since we've seen that cartoon.
Those brownies weren't terrible, but they did have a slightly burnt taste to them, and I only had three. We decided to let Scott take home all the ones that we didn't eat.
Finally, I didn't notice this before, but I found out that the first Penny Arcade strip was made when I was in 7th grade. To be exact, the day was November 18, 1998. Actually, we didn't have the internet back then, and the only time I remember using it was three days later, which in this case, I was looking for tips on how to complete 100% in Kirby Super Star. I think Brian uploaded the internet for temporary use at that time, and I don't remember when it was that my family started using the internet. Of course, since I wasn't allowed to watch The Simpsons, Beavis & Butthead, or South Park back then (and only sometimes allowed to watch Celebrity Deathmatch), it's obvious that Mom and Dad wouldn't have let me read Penny Arcade (or watch the Angry Video Game Nerd, if he were making videos back then). But, yeah. I think this is worth marking as a trivium before I get Chronicles of 7th Grade published, as would be the release dates of Getter Love!! and Magic Knight Rayearth, even though all three of those things were irrelevant back then.
