Doesn't help that the weather's been a bit crap recently; it was misting or outright raining all through exams, the World's Shortest Monsoon started almost as soon as I left the school proper, and now it's cold and windy up here in home-land. WTF, May. I had just put my sweaters away and everything.
Portable GPS systems are a gift from God, though, for which I am appropriately grateful. Especially ones that talk, and recalculate your route if you make a wrong turn.
As you may have gathered, I made it home in one piece without getting too lost (only required directions from Dad once). Granted, I started late, had to stop for the night (which I don't have to do when my parents are driving), started late again the next morning, and spent the entirety of Home Highway in a state of brain-frying terror, but hey. I made it. That's something.
I should be unpacking, but I'm not, of course. I have, however, managed to convince Brother to take me to see Iron Man tomorrow in exchange for me taking him to Starbucks before school. It's sort of a silly bargain, since I'm going to be the one driving him to the theater and likely paying for his ticket, but it means that I won't being going to the movies alone. I should be able to start Doing Things with my friends at home tomorrow or shortly thereafter.
*lounges* My dog is poking at me and trying to smell everywhere I've been by inspecting my clothes. It's good to be home.

I know! I'm sitting here in a sweatshirt and warm slippers, kind of missing my old tropical sauna apartment. Behave yourself, weather.
Still don't understand the allure of Iron Man that has gripped the nation, or at least the portion of it on LJ.

You know, I remember thinking that it was getting a little humid and sticky back before the rain and cold and ick started. How foolish I was.
I don't know about everyone else, but I really want to see Iron Man because I've heard nothing but good things about it, which is unusual for a superhero movie. Also, I really like Robert Downey Jr. :D
