The major painting is done. Tomorrow I have to run out to HD to get the paint for the trim and the window (I'm thinking metallic copper,) and that'll be that for the walls. Then I have to pick out some tiles, a cabinet, and maybe some lights if I can find some reasoably priced ones. So far it looks good. I like this color a lot better than what I had a few days ago.

So, every year I forget that it's E3, until I see something about it in the news. Check it out, there is a new Zelda trailer! It's not long, but it looks awesome. Can't freaking wait to play this game.

Also, hurray for Super Smash Brothers Brawl with LINK in it! And Samus without her suit? Jeremy is going to freak right on out. It looks awesome, I might end up liking it better than SCIII. But we'll see. Not sure how I feel about a character named "Pit" though. What is it with Nintendo and stupid names? I guess I will have to get damn stupid freaking Wii after all. "Wii." Jaysus. Umm, and is it me, or does a character named Wario fart fire and explode things at the end of this clip? I'm not convinced I'm awake as I watch this trailer.

So I'm sitting here thinking, "wow, next week I'll have my first birds. Starlings, probably." And making plans for that and all the stuff for the kitchen and then it hits me: I am going to Indiana next week, people. I absolutely, utterly, totally forgot. I'm leaving next Friday. WTF?

ETA And I completely effing forgot that Idol was on tonight and I missed it. I guess I missed a historical moment, too. Huh, it seems like the people at Idol were hearing the buzz that people were thinking the show was fixed and, well, fixed it.

Still, color me shocked. I only wish I had seen it.

I thought you'd be interested to know that a Robin built a nest in a gutter under our porch roof, and my dad has his wireless surveillance camera pointed at it so we have a 24-7 view of a mommy Robin feeding her three open mouths in the wild. Fascinating stuff, very cute.

AWWW! Did they hatch already? Wow, early season indeed. Luckeeee!

It was absolutely positively the greatest Idol result ever. They set it up brilliantly, too--I was certain Elliott and Taylor would be the bottom two, even though DialIdol had them at the top. (I get paranoid for my favorites...) And you should have SEEN Chris's face! He was so surly and pissed, you saw how entitled he felt to winning this season. Made me dislike him even more than I already did. He had absolutely none of the composure that other losers this season have had.

Is it too much to hope that Elliott can squeeze through to the finale? Oh, that would be such a joy to watch (as I'm sure Taylor will be there).

Now I wish I would have seen it. Chris was getting arrogant and doing the "I'm so humble and down to earth that you can't even touch me" thing that I hate in arrogant people.

I'm really pulling for Elliot, too. I like Taylor, but sometimes he gets on my nerves. Still, I'm all right with the final three. :)
