I'm back! (what do you mean you didn't know I was gone?)

Things in the real world have kept me from the virtual one. I missed an opprotunity in Star Wars Galaxies, and I have not been reading or updating in LiveJournal. So if there is something I should know from the past couple weeks, just let me know.

We have a new addition to the family. Jimmy. Jimmy is a small white mouse we bought for Conor yesterday. He is a very cute, very friendly little critter. We bought a mouse-ball for him to run around in, but he is too small for that yet. I hope he will grow and be able to scoot around the house. Conor named the mouse himself, and I think he got the name from the main character in Bubble Boy. If I have sexed him right, Jimmy, thankfully, is a boy. Ofcourse if it was not the case, nothing would convince Conor otherwise anyway.

Conor is having a difficult morning. They opened up a new area on the test server of Toontown, yet since we have gotten home, it crashes on loading. Which is a shame as it loaded fine before [livejournal.com profile] buffalogal went to work. This lead to much tantrums. I heard the familiar banging on the keyboard when things don't go well, to see Conor up on the table literally jumping up and down on the keyboard!!! I pulled him off the computer, and the tantrum continued. Then I put in a DVD of Black & White Mickey Mouse cartoons. Ah! The panacea that is Black & White Mickey! We have peace once again.

I watched Donnie Darko for the first time during [livejournal.com profile] arwen_jinn's visit. It was a good movie, and she left me the tape! Thank you! It was a bit triggery for me, as I was the medicated, slightly psychotic teenager in my past -- though I never experienced time travel.

Good luck on the mouse! If I had know I would have kept all the mice stuff I had and shipped it to you folks rather then give it to some lady off Craigslist.

Hopefully the male mouse won't be as smelly as the one I had.

Um found out I am expecting my first little one, you know after being told the last 15 years that I would never be able to have children.

Donnie Darko is a great movie! Kinda disturbed me while I was watching it, but once it got to the end, I was okay. That rabbit thing was creepy!! There's a similar movie called "The Jacket" that just came out. You might like it as well.

Glad things are going well for you! I miss y'all! *hug*

Oopsie.

Isabelle and Conor have the same reaction to the computer messing up it would seem..she beats it with her fists if it doesn't produce toontown.
