I do not eat . . . curry.

I went to the vampire with dad this morning. Apparently, like my mother, I haff no bloood. It took two technicians three tries to get any at all. I suppose this could be an advantage, should I ever have to deal with the children of the night for real.

On the way home, we passed the place with the tree in the middle of the road. You know, where there's a tree growing right in the middle of the road? Only there isn't anymore, because idiotskept running into and denting their bumpers, so they took it out and paved over the spot. Well, this morning, there was a huge accident with one car overturned and the other totalled, *right at that spot*. So much for reducing accidents. *grumbles*

Now Dad is out buying a tandem bike from a friend-of-a-friend so he can sucker Mom into to riding with him. Unfortunately reports are that it doesn't work, so he will probably fiddle with it continually for the next fifteen years. Mom is sewing me a Harry Potter quilt out of a sheet and a shower curtain. I should be writing a paper. Ah well, good to know I'm back to my old procrastinatory ways.

Neat. Any particular reason why they felt like bleeding you or just for fun? I like having blood drawn.. it's so normal and relatively non-unpleasant, never mind that it always takes them at least two tries on me. Getting allergy shots and having a needle stuck in your arm every week or two for four years makes you think things like that..

Back to javascript now :-P

The way I see it, it's the tree itself that caused the accident. Kinda like a final act of vengeance. Spooky...
