Mood: exhausted
Little Becky kidnapped me tonight to play "Pirates". This involved stealing trinkets from JP and Morgan's bathroom, and their individual bedrooms, as well as my bedroom. She was not happy when I wanted to go upstairs and visit my other cousins.

I guess I should back up a bit.
Thanks to everyone who talked to me last night after the bitchy post. I hope I wasn't too much of a pain. I crashed around 2am.
I slept in until 10am (Be proud of me Glit-chan). Laid about for a bit, then took a shower and got dressed to leave the house for a while. I just needed to not be sitting around here. Was told that Caroyln & John Y would be up for dinner around 5ish, as well as all thier kids and gran-kids.

I wandered about Southdale Mall then hit up a used bookstore I had gotten directions to. I aquired a nice hard-back copy of "Le Morte D'Arthur", and two fantasy novels that look somewhat promising, "War for the Oaks" by Emma Bull and "The Summer Country" by James Hetley. We'll see if they're any good or not.

Got back around 5:15 and talked to Ashley on the phone outside for a few minutes. Everyone came up a bit later. Carolyn, John Y, Johny & Mary, and Robbie, Robbie's 3 kids (including one named Becky), Johnny's daughter Grace. Along with Dave, Liegh, Morgan, JP, and Shawn (JP's friend). And later, a little boy, Andrew, who Morgan was babysitting joined the crowd. [That's 7 adults, and 8 younglings below the age of 15, not including me in the count at all.]

I'm just the right age that little cousins seem to think I'm the best thing since sliced bread almost no matter what dumb thing I do. Go figure. All very cute, but tiring. Grace turns 3 next week, and she's grown so much! She's adorable. She's going to be tall and thin like her daddy. I enjoyed talking to all the adults, and the kids were sweet, I just don't have the first clue how to handle them. John Paul and Morgan are at an age where we get along really well, when they're not testing boundaries at least.

Geh, so tired.
I think I shall crash soon.

Meh... Need to draw comics.
