Yep... I've now seen the last two Harry Potter movies, since they were showing them both (in a row, with only a half-hour break in between!) over in the SAC. Even though I probably should have started on that paper I still need to write, I ended up going and watching both movies instead. Started out kind of badly since the only seats around were either crowded around tons of people I don't know, or right in the middle of huge empty spaces with nobody around at all... but eventually I bumped into someone I knew (or more accurately she walked up to me and said hi) and we ended up sitting together for the whole five hours of the two movies, talking a little bit here and there (not enough to disrupt the movies though, so it was okay) and sharing some popcorn.
Of course, I just had to screw it up by mentioning, at the very end just a few minutes before she was about to leave, the fact that I had a dream the other night with her in it. There wasn't anything weird about the dream really (other than the fact that I usually don't have dreams with people I know in them), we were just sitting in the cafeteria talking for a few minutes before the dream switched over to something completely unrelated... but almost as soon as I mentioned it I started to feel bad, like I probably shouldn't have mentioned it at all. I know it's probably just me worrying over nothing and getting a little paranoid, since she didn't really seem to freak out or anything when I mentioned it and we still talked a bit afterward (she didn't like... try to avoid me or anything), but I was kind of hoping I'd be able to walk with her back home afterward and talk some more... instead she got a ride with some other people, so the whole talking thing got cut off kind of abruptly... which probably contributed to the weirdness of it all. I'm guessing the only reason why this one tiny little thing worries me at all is because I think I'm starting to like this girl, and lately it's almost seemed like she might actually like me too in some way--she seems to be smiling pretty much constantly whenever I talk to her (and from what I've seen it's not always quite as constant with other people, though she still does smile a lot); she actually came over and said hi to me today, when the movie had already started and she probably could have just as easily gone ahead and sat down somewhere; she was the one who suggested that we sit together and (later on) that we share the same bag of popcorn; she even thanked me for letting her sit with me at the end, when I had tried to thank her for the same thing, she just insisted that it was the other way around. And she seemed to like the idea of me walking her back home, she only ended up getting a ride with someone because it is pretty far to where she lives and it was getting kind of cold out by then.
It seems like I can never like just one or two girls at a time, it always has to be at least three... so I guess when one drops off of the "girls I like in that way" list, another one moves in to fill in the empty slot or something. XD
In other news, I've gotten over 4000 words of my NaNoWriMo story written and I drew a bunch of Killer K'hyurbhi's minions from the 1995-1996 (4th/5th grade) era. Cruncho, Darno, Eato, Grakker, Uposo, Slambosh and Yummerplet, Crobombug, Christy (who is now Christy Telamora, I finally came up with a last name for her last year!), the Alligator Teacher, and General Yourgh. I wasn't sure who to put in the last space on the second page (with Christy, the Alligator Teacher, and Yourgh), but looking over the list it seems like the only major Killer K'hyurbhi minions I've left out so far are Count Crappaddoo, Badmazz, and Captain Smash (who was basically a palette swap of Badmazz... which means I'll need to do at least a little bit of redesigning there.) Unfortunately, I probably won't have time for much of anything tomorrow since I'll be working on that paper for history class... will probably end up having to skip the fireside tomorrow (assuming that's actually when it is, I can't remember for sure... it might actually be next weekend) just to have time. Either that or skip church, which is what I did last time (though not for the same reason, I just ended up getting there late last time and couldn't find a decent seat among all the crowdedness.)
