I am done with everything for school!!!!!! All that's left is to wait for grades and hope I somehow didn't fuck it up & fail at the end.....and graduation itself, I suppose XD WHATEVER. I do feel significantly less stressed now that it's over~~~

Anyway, I did some stuff this past week, but the most important thing came from Pat browsing Craigslist free stuff: A PACHINKO MACHINE


We had to drive down to DC for it but it was so worth it!!!
uhhhh literally everything else has left my mind because of how fun and exciting this is :D We're probably gonna have to get more of the pachinko balls for it, cuz the guy giving it away only had so many left, but!!!!! It's awesome!!!!!

Pat called it "I can't believe we're getting an actual working pachinko machine because blorbo gave you good luck" and he's not really wrong, especially since it was the day after Rinne's birthday. He's always talking about going to pachinko parlors, and now we can play in our own home :D Very kind of him to share his birthday luck~

OH RIGHT YES I FORGOT THE OTHER BIG THING: We're going to Chicago this coming weekend!!!!! It's a sorta impromptu trip to celebrate my graduation, and we picked Chicago because 1) Liz & I have never been and 2) dual cicada emergence :D It was so cool to see brood X a few years back, but this is gonna be even moooooore.

We're heading out on Friday afternoon and stopping about halfway at whatever cheap motel we can find (probably in the middle of Ohio somewhere), because it's a 10+ hour drive :T I'm excited though!! I haven't been that far into the midwest since, uh, 2011???? The infamous Youmacon trip to Detroit~ We might take a detour up to Detroit on the way there or back, depending on how much time we have.

AHHHHH I JUST LOVE ROAD TRIPS!!!!

.........I don't know what it says about my life that this is the first time I've used "vacation" as a tag :T I don't think all the tags imported correctly from GJ...I think............
