shoes, aerosmith

so i'm happy :) i'm getting new running shoes either today or tomorrow, which is good because my mizunos are basically dead.

i rented guitar hero aerosmith from blockbuster last night, and i have to say, it's not very good. and i like aerosmith (kind of impossible not to when you spent the first five years of your life having your brother blasting it and the next 10 having your father blasting it) but it's just not very good. you've got to play 2 songs that aren't even aerosmith to get to 2 or 3 aerosmith songs every set. it's annoying. maybe i'm just getting bored of guitar hero, or maybe the songs get better, but i'm not too pleased with it right now.

ok, batman. i'm normally more of a spiderman girl. i love spiderman- he's so freaking cool. but then i saw batman begins. and it was so good that spidey better watch out. bruce wayne really has to put up with a lot; he saw his parents murdered, he trained for years on a remote mountaintop with those crazy people, was attacked by bats, and then he has to go protecting gotham from the physco gas. and i have to say, the whole thing with the physco gas really freaked me out. that's so creepy. if you haven't seen it, i suggest that you do, because it's a really good movie. and i'm excited for dark knight- my friend and i, dorks as we are, bought batman capes at 6 flags (which actually sparked my interest in batman. they had batman, superman, and wonderwoman capes, and superman's annoying and wonderwoman's annoying so i got batman, and then wanted to see the movies) and we're going to go see the dark knight with our capes on. i wanted to get this full costume thing at the store that had the mask and cape and, um, idk but other stuff, but my mom wouldn't let me. i think she questions my maturity at times.

it's hot as hell outside. i love summer, and i love warmth, but i don't need a sauna outside. i wish it would rain- i love rain. i open my window because i love the smell and the wind. that's something i miss about florida sometimes- the hurricanes. hurricanes are fun. it's like a ginormous storm with huge gusts of wind and sometimes you can't see, because it's raining so hard. i used to look out the window and watch the wire the streetlights were on fling around and the streetlights fly off. one time, while a hurricane was in the gulf, it sucked a huge amount of water out of the bay (not the tampa bay- the hillsborough bay. if you look on a map of tampa, it's a peninsula, and there's a bay on both sides) and it was just this disgusting mud for basically ever, and then the storm came in and we went out there in the morning when it started and it was just flooded. ridiculously so. normally, that water's several feet under the wall. i'd say 10, but that might be stretching it. between 5 and 10 feet. but then the water all came back in from the hurricane and you couldn't even see the wall, just waves that kept chugging in, completely covering everything. and the water came in really far- two streets away from the bay it was flooded. that doesn't normally happen. ever. it was one of the coolest things i'd ever seen, like one of those movies about storms in the pacific, except that it was there, in real life, in front of me.

i'm really bored.
