Did not hear back from the Realtor today.  Little disappointed, as she told me that she would get back to me on Monday.  So excited about that one place I loved, don't want to miss out on it.

Went to find the bike pump in the garage today.  Managed to find it, but couldn't get it to work on my bike tires.  I have hybrid tires (50% road-, 50% mountain-like), so they have an abnormal connector on them.  I have an adapter to put on a tire when I go to inflate it that makes it like a normal tire air connector.  For some reason, I was being retarded and couldn't get it to work right.  Thought it was the weird bike pump, since it has this plastic connector on it that I'm not used to.  Dad offered to take me down to Walmart in attempts to find a new bike pump.  When we got there, we quickly realized that the bike pump we already have is the standard kind of bike pump.  So, most likely, I was doing something wrong.  Came back home, messed with my tires a bit more and realized what I was doing wrong.  With my hybrid connector, I have to unscrew it to "open" it up before putting my adapter on it.  After I figured that out, I was able to put air in my tires no problem.  Unfortunately, it was already very dark out, so I couldn't go out for a ride.  Another day.

Christmas gift planning is panning out nicely.  Very excited.

Played the Left4Dead 2 demo today with my brother and James for the first time.  They only have 2 levels from one campaign available, but it was still fun.  Played through it 4 times: twice on advanced, twice on expert.  Of course, we only managed to get ourselves mangled repeatedly on expert.  We fuck around way too much to be able to do that successfully anymore.  The game comes out tomorrow, I got a pre-order for Jay for his birthday, and of course I put it under my name.  After he gets back from class, I'll be going with him to EB.  He'll probably try to pressure me into buying it.  We'll see how that goes.  Haven't even been playing Borderlands much so.  Only made it to level 25 or so, should really play some more of that.  Besides, I wouldn't put it past Jay to get me L4D2 for Christmas.

Kiki pooped in the middle of the bathroom floor today.  Almost stepped in it when I went to shower.  Earlier this evening, I was in the kitchen, standing next to a little alcove for a minute or two before looking down to see a 3"+ spider sitting not an inch from my foot.  I freaked out a little and left the room immediately.  Dad and Jay collected the spider and set it free outside.  I don't mind bugs, even spiders, so long as I don't need to be that close to them.  But I swear, the animals were out to get me today.

Going house hunting in Jacksonville for the first time tomorrow.  Kaitlyn's coming along too, so it should be fun.  Going to be spending just about all day looking, as far as I know anyway.  My new Realtor is the wife of our family financial advisor, so I already trust her.  Seems nice over the phone and email; actually much more interested in helping me out than the last Jacksonville Realtor I had that I cancelled on.

Had lunch with justgotspaid the other week.  Was fun catching up, and we totally need to get together again so she can become addicted to The Dog Island ;)

Have family friends in town this weekend.  Carol and Sonny, the same Carol that visited me in CA ^^  They're fun.  Love to drink and play cards, so what could be better?  Already played a game of Big Bertha and Apples to Apples, both of which I won.  Yar.

Spent this past weekend in Charleston with James.  Had an absolutely wonderful weekend.  Friday night we went to the beach.  Was so very gorgeous.  Saturday we went to an arcade with his sister, played 18 holes of mini-golf, and a round of go-karting.  There was much fun had.  His dad made delicious burgers later that evening, and I convinced his Aunt and Mother to play cards with us.  A game of Big Bertha and Apples to Apples, of which I won both surprisingly enough.  KK and I believe there's a newbie's advantage when playing Apples to Apples.  Sunday we went out to a very large park, complete with an animal exhibit-like area.  I cooked for his family that evening: my handmade gnocchi with a red vodka cream sauce, complete with lava cakes for dessert.  Everything went over really well, so I was pretty happy about that.  Went to see Couples Retreat afterward.  Was funny, not the best movie ever, but not terrible.  I left on Monday, but not before having lunch at a little Chinese place I picked out from Urbanspoon.  I think it lived up to its high rating quite well.  Overall it was a great trip.  Nice to get out of Gainesville :)
