The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Tickets for my mom and I to see Practical Magic 2 tomorrow have been secured! I'm so excited! I've never read the books, but I have always loved the first movie, and I was ecstatic when I heard them announce a sequel. I have a big Practical Magic movie poster that Tommy had given me years and years ago up on my bedroom wall, so I've been a longtime fan, haha. One of these days I'll have to get around to reading the books, as I've heard they're good. But yeah, I'm excited for this one.

Went and saw it last night! I thought it was great... absolutely no spoilers from me, but take tissues just in case you get emotional easy like I do. lol. I forgot it was a book series and now I need to read it! That is going on my list for sure!

I always forget that there are entire generations of people who didn't experience 9/11. And talking to kids and young adults who weren't alive to know what it was like that day, and the years that followed, is rough. Because they will never fully understand. They can see the news coverage today and it doesn't really mean anything to them, but being alive, witnessing it all play out as it happened, that's something I'll never forget. I'll never forget waking up and going downstairs, only to see the second plane hit the towers. I'll never forget how surreal school felt that day, how we just had news coverage going in every class. I'll never forget being huddled in the living room that evening with my parents and my brother, just trying to make sense of what had happened. It's been an entire quarter of a century now, and I still vividly remember everything from that day. I'll never forget.

I remember Turing on the TV and seeing the, Towers right before the second plane hit. Before I went for my Shift at the local grocery store. We had literally No customers all day. It was kinda surreal.

I was sitting in my Life Drawing one college classroom when news of it hit. We were dismissed early and everyone went to the common areas and cafeteria to see the news. Classes were cancelled for the rest of the day. It was horrible to witness and the following days as the searches went on... just awful.

It's 2:30 in the morning and it's 86 degrees outside. We've been in an extreme heat advisory since yesterday. Last week things were finally starting to cool down, now we're back at 100+ degree days, and 85+ degree nights. I hate it here.

Thing's aren't much better on my side of the country. It's been in the 100's with heat index being 106 and sometimes higher. It is outright disrespectful!

I think I may have caught something over the weekend, as I have the worst headache today. It might also be because I couldn't get to sleep last night, despite being next to mi amor and having an edible. Usually I have no issues with sleep when I'm at Logan's, but this weekend was just blah. I wish it would rain again like it did yesterday, but no. Instead, it's just overcast and insanely humid. That hurricane off the cost is doing nothing for us weather wise. It'll be back up in the mid to high 90's again all this week. Just give me autumn already, I've been done with summer since July.

Lemon-lime water, no sugar if possible, electrolytes. We are getting a heat wave here; it's cooling next week. Take care of yourself and your family.

Just got back to Hidden Hills after spending the day at the house looking after my mom. She seems to be doing okay, but I'm still a bit worried. We went to the store, got her some groceries, and we got her something from Popeye's to eat. She mostly just spent the time in her room, sleeping, which I'm totally okay with. Whatever it is that has her messed up, rest definitely will help. So, hopefully she'll be good. Though, I won't feel completely at ease until she sees her doctor.

I'm so thankful to Logan for being willing to drive us out and stay with me while I was with my mom. It's a lot to ask, and the drive can take a lot out of you. So, I appriciate him so much for everything. He's the best.

Logan and I were supposed to go to my aunt Stacy's 60th birthday party today, but I got off the phone with my mom a bit ago and she had to have my brother take her to the emergency room last night, because her balance is all off and she can't stand or walk straight. They didn't find anything wrong with her, but she needs to do a follow-up with her PCP. So, instead of the party, we're going to head over to the house so I can make sure she's okay. This is what I'm really worried about with moving half way across the country... If something happens to my mom, or to Kevin or Liz or the kids... I won't be here. I'll be in Texas. So yeah... Hopefully it's nothing serious with my mom, but I don't want to chance things, so we'll be spending the day with her.
