April 15

There was a terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon today. At least, that's what they are calling it for now. There aren't too many details yet, but 2 bombs went off near the finish line of the marathon. So far they're saying 3 dead, over 100 injured. Some of the pictures are horrible :-/ I don't think I want to share a planet with people who think it's ok to do stuff like this. And the sad thing is that I know this kind of thing happens in other countries all of the time but it just seems so much worse when it happens here. I know it's not, but that's always my first thought. I wonder if most people feel the same way?

On a happier note, I went home this morning and got TK up for school then had a snack and played a little Black Ops 2. TH slept late because he was feeling bad and I went to bed shortly after he got up. Woke up when TK got home from school and messed around with him for a little while, then went and played in the kitchen! I chopped up some salad veggies and made a salad for me to take to work tonight and one for TH to eat for lunch tomorrow. Mine has bell peppers, green onions, celery, carrots, mushrooms, tomatoes, green olives, a little shredded cheese, and some garlic red wine vinegar for dressing instead of ranch. Yum! I pulled out some hamburger meat to thaw for Tater Tot Casserole. We'll probably make that Wednesday night. And I made dinner for tonight...

Ok so we had 8 or 9 frozen breaded fish fillets left, so I baked those and made some macaroni and cheese for TH and TK. I steamed a bag of garlic cauliflower (for everyone). For me, I cooked a frozen tilapia fillet in the skillet with a little water, garlic, salt, pepper, and garlic red wine vinegar and roasted some asparagus with garlic, lemon pepper, salt, and a packet of Pizza Hut parmesan cheese (lol). I added a little bit of salad with veggies and the vinegar, and some of the garlic cauliflower. It was really good, and so purty! Yeah, I took a picture, lol.

I'm really trying to watch my eating. I think it's going to be a lot easier now that we can cook, and keep anything that we need in the pantry and fridge. I do think we're going to end up getting at least a small chest freezer, though. There's barely any room for anything in the regular freezer. Last night I didn't eat dinner at home, I just had a roast beef sandwich and some chips when I got up around 3:00. I brought a container of grapes, strawberries, a sliced banana, and a tangelo, and a small container of the chicken veggie stirfry stuff. I ended up eating all of the fruit and half of the chicken stuff. I still had a bag of Doritos in my backpack so I ate those too. When I got home this morning I cooked one of those little 3 packs of crappy frozen tacos and added some shredded cheese, light sour cream, and jalapenos. So that probably wasn't the best choice, but eh. I'm working on it, and I am definitely getting more veggies! Now I just need to work on TH and TK...

Tomorrow the new Uprising map pack for Black Ops 2 comes out. I can't wait to play it! The maps look really neat, especially the new zombies map. It's called Mob of the Dead and it's set in Alcatraz (the prison). I think it's supposed to be set up kinda like a cross between Call of the Dead from Black Ops and Tranzit from Black Ops 2, where you have to go to the different areas to turn on the power to activate the perks and all. There's supposed to be a new perk, too. It's gonna be awesome! I definitely need to try to go to bed early enough that I won't need a nap tomorrow, because I know TK is eager to play it too :-)

So, let's see. I think I promised HAPPY KITTY!! pictures, so here we go. And one of dinner, cause it was sooo purty :-) Hey, I'm easily amused, remember?

TK took this one. It's Jim Bob, Hiccup, and Snipe, on TK's bed.

Moose and Snipe, in a chair in the living room. I think it's safe to say that Snipe has made himself at home :-)

The Naga, looking at another Naga. Still need to figure out where to put that mirror.

Nom nom nom. /r/shittyfoodporn, anybody? XD

Song: Brooks and Dunn - Ain't Nothing 'bout You. An older one. I love this song! I went to 2 or 3 of their concerts when I was a teenager. Pretty cool.

Best thing: Made an awesome dinner!

Worst thing: Evil fucking people out there >:-(

Woohoo.
