Broken pumps, broken batteries, broken hearts, broken weather, broken everything! by DeRiften

Whew, am I tired... and cold. It was -58F here last night and the weather says it's gonna be like this for a week or so, so of course it's -72F now just like last year, and the water broke again just like last year. This time though, it's under warranty so we called the company but they're closed till Monday 'cause of the holidays so till then, we're melting water to get water. Plus my grandma's spent the week here and she was planning to leave today but her car's battery died so she's stuck here for at least one more day, but at least something good happened... sorta. Y'see, when I looked at the TV guide this morning, I noticed that there was three good movies in a row and on the same channel today, meaning couch potato with blankets from noon to 5:30pm, but as the first movie was about to start, one of my great-aunt called to invite us for a chat, so we went and though there was no food (with the exception of a delicious sugar pie), we had fun and I still get along well with my cousin (she has assburger and spends her days playing vidyas, what's not to like?). On the way back home, we borrowed my grandpa's five gallons water bottle so we'd have less snow to melt and all sat down on the couch, burrowed in blankets and watching random stuff on TV. Sounds boring but it wasn't 'cause one of the random stuff happened to be one of the movies I wanted to watch. I didn't know they had made a new Resident Evil movie so I was hyped when I saw it was playing today on TV, but I've gotta say I was pretty disappointed. It just feels like there's an entire movie missing between this one and the last one, I have no idea what the hell happened and what's going on, or how far after the last movie this one takes place, or where all the characters came from, or why some of 'em changed sides, or why they know particular things about the virus now. I mean, what the hell? I was so confused that after the movie, I checked on Wikipedia 'cause I was sure I had missed a movie but no, it's just that badly done. Really inconsistent and rushed, everything about it is terrible and makes no sense.

Oh well, after that there was two hours of Storage Wars and I love that show, so I stayed on the couch, grabbed my 3DS and resumed Bleach: The 3rd Phantom. I've already completed it but now I'm doing the post-game tower where you can unlock all kinds of characters, including one from one of the movies. I'm almost done with the tower but now I'm stuck on a level so it'll require some grinding to succeed but I'm eager to unlock that particular character so it's gonna be worth it.

Also yeah, if my writing seems a tad rushed, it's 'cause I'm kinda in a hurry to finish this so I can go warm myself up in bed, but Tiger finally logged in after seven months of absence and she needs someone to talk to so she takes priority over warmth and sleep :o
