Today's Onion Headline: "Video-Game Characters Denounce Randomly Placed Swinging Blades"

You know the day is going to be something special when you wake up and actually say, out loud, "Fuck it. I'm not wearing pants today."
So I'm gonna stick to the Pijama and Sweatshirt combo I've been rocking so far today.
Now for the interesting stuff.
Yesterday was Girls Day Out. We really need to do that more often :)
It started out, as all good things do, at the mall, but since it was a PA mall on a Sunday, we only had until 5 to peruse the tiny and random stores before the whole mall closed up. I got two new movies (because, as Emily was kind enough to point out, I really needed more movies ), Runaway Jury, which I've seen and loved, and American Splendor which I've wanted to see since I heard about it.
After the mall closed, we were going to go to the movies, but nothing was playing. We ended up going to an early dinner where we gorged ourselves on Applebee's food and two varieties of desserts. It was glorious. Too bad after that I had to go back to reading my damned book.
As for today, I have way too much to do. I have the last hundred pages of my book to read, a book report to write, a test to take that I can't get myself to care about, and a bunch of forms to fill out and mail back to my Dad.
In this flurry of activity, how can I possibly be expected to find time for non-pijama pants!?
