Day 142-Memmooorrriiieesss

There hasn't been anythign too exciting. Frank went home to the U.S. for a few days to get some paper work done or possibly to see all the great hit movies that came out this summer cause he couldn't wait for them to come out here. And only update with me is I've lost a sold 2kg. I don't know where it went, cause I dance in front of the mirror and just see the same old me and then wonder why I'm dancing in front of the mirror. But hey 2 kg is better then no kg.
I'm almost near complete of watching every episode of BATMAN the animated series! Really good. Every volume the style of animation changes a bit, but it's nice to hear the same voice actors and I can't wait to watch more Batman or maybe even Justice League. See how everythign ties into each other. Maybe get to see Lobo!
We're having company come shortly. Frank's Grand-dad and sister are coming out for 3 weeks to explore Europe, mostly Belgium. So we get to go through the same routines as we do when a new person comes to visit us. We are expert tour guides!...well Frank is, I'm not, but I'm his semi-helpful assistant. So things have been busy, but quiet, but I'm sure that will all change in a few days.
Frank also got me a guitar, so I've been practicing, remember all the same old songs I could play and trying to take on new ones. I would really like to be able to master Stair way to heaven, but I kinda stop at the 34 second mark. And I learned a Cowboy Bebop guitar song which makes me think I belong out on the prairie watching space ships take off into the night sky.
And I've been doing a lot of remembering of old shows such as Ren and Stimpy, Family Guy, and Adult Swim. You know useless information that my mind stores and endless quotes that only a few people would get. "Hey Lois, Diarrhea!" and "...Bannana....I love you" and "Memories" and "Noses on dowels" and "Doppelopaguse!" and "Hellloooo" and "You could be the producer. A producer tells the artist what to do, then he takes all the credit!" or "You want to know what killed the dinosaurs? They all got a relaly bad cold. They cough, sneezed and farted all at the same time! They exploded!"
And I've still been playing non-stop Mario Kart, but I am not the best in the world, and I clearly know that cause the internet tells me so when I compete. I would just like to know these people that hold the high record of these test! Then again, maybe I don't. I spend a good amount of time getting better, but these guys...how many hours did they spend?!?!?!
I also complete the series Hitchhickers Guide to the Galaxy. Such a good book, and I recommend it to all.There's just so much to it, that I know I can read it again and not remember that I read it. So I won't mind reading it again.
I also got to experience the Euro Cup...still not my cup of tea. But it is something wonderful to see an entire country cheer all together. Before the final match came up, just people in the streets celebrating when their team won. Cars honking their horns, people cheering when a goal was made. It didn't feel safe to walk outside at that time, I felt people were more concerned with cheering then watching the road. I saw a guy do donuts at a cross section while traffic was trying to conduct itself. It's just neat, cause I'd never hear or see that at home. I barely hear the house next store yell, "Happy new year!" So the Euro cup came down to Germany vs Spain. Frank and I went to a sports bar with some people from his job. Everyone except for me and Carlo was cheering for spain. We were on the German side...and we lost.

Hey that ain't bad. Someone else had a good rhyme, but I think this is best so far.
