May. 25th, 2013 06:27 amYesterday morning marked the last round I'll be playing for now of Getter Love!! Mom called my cell phone in the middle of said round, and told me that she and Dad would be coming to pick me up today. Finished up the game afterwards, and then started getting ready for my return home. Folded up all my clothes (at least whatever wasn't awaiting a wash), packed my books up, and boxed my Nintendo 64 back up.
Had an email-and-phone exchange with Mom about a Swagbucks email that I got and forwarded to her (I now have three at this point, which I intend to show her at home). I told her that I was thinking of buying Brian some kind of gift card as a graduation present, but she told me that he actually hasn't graduated from Portland University yet, although she said she'd look for some for herself. She also told me that he sold his apartment in NYC, and is currently living at home before going back to Portland.
She had also told me that, due to a change in plans regarding her and Dad going to Staten Island, the two of them would instead be coming to get me on Tuesday. That gives me a few more days which I can start translating Mother: The Original Story without any interference from them, though I needed yesterday first to unwind from playing Getter Love!! for this whole past week. Focused on updating the Starbound game details (something which I intend to show Brian personally when I'm home), but didn't find much else to do otherwise, besides pacing back and forth on the lower floor of the house (it was raining most of the time).

For dinner, Grandpa and I went out to buy a pizza. Along the way there, he told me that he had several boxes of soda in his trunk to have with it at home.
Had a few slices of pizza when we got home, along with one of three cookies that I asked him to buy for me at the place, and then went to get the boxes. Two of them were Coca-Cola, and the remaining one was Sprite. Entered all three codes, and earned myself a total of 30 points. Somehow, though, both Coke codes were marked with the Minute Maid logo instead of Coca-Cola, even though I confirmed after the first of them having entered all the characters exactly as they appeared. How odd.
In any case, I had already looked into what I'd be spending my points on for this month earlier yesterday, just to pass a bit of time. There were two gift cards for Visa, one for Home Depot, and one for BestBuy, which make a total of four. Rolled my dice one time, and the cubic die (which always comes before my 8-sided die when I roll them simultaneously) landed a 5. That means that I won't be spending any points this month.
