Ok, this is not as early as I was up yesterday, about an hour later infact. My family haven't called yet either. I got up, showered, ate bannanas for breakfast, made coffee, sent some emails regarding conbust panels I am running (btw. Mel? Am I still on the girls in gaming panel? My game is scheduled at the same time), did my UD actions for now.

Yesterday was nice and chill. My parents called me at 8.30, but I was half awake already, Claire was fussing about and getting ready to leave. So my dad called and even though I had been planning on a nap after Claire left that was not happening. He sounded so exited I could not bring myself to say 'can I meet you later?'. So about an hour later I met them, we went grocery shopping. I needed milk and various other things. Then we went to Woodstar where we ran into Claire and her parents. We had the whole awkward girlfriend meet family, family meet girlfriend's family. But our mothers talked a bit about knitting and seemed to like each other. My dad still have a little issue with catching up with the speed at which people talk. But he is doing great. We had some really good sandwiches there and my brother is now a mocha lover. After that we went to the bulb show, my family loved it, thought it was an amazing botantic garden, which it is. Then I gave them the quick tour of campus, showed them every thing  but didn't go in anywhere. My dad was amazed that the builders at Ford Hall work at Saturdays. I had to explain that yes they do. Then we went to webs, where I managed to spend a hundred bucks. Bought yarn for a new project. You know that nice green vest I have? Yeah, one in blue. As well as more yarn for my torchwood scarf, and wool and stuff for spinning. My mom apperently knows this, and is going to teach me. My list of cool crafts will be even longer ; knitting, crochet, embroidery, sewing (both machine and by hand), spinning, tablet weaving, nålbinding (I know my brother is planning on giving me a needle and stuff for my birthday so I will learn), leather works, knife making (yes I do know this, only not the metal part of it), chainmail making. I  love crafts, especially old crafts which most of them are. After webs we stopped by Osaka to make a reservation and then we went to the mall. We spent a ton of time in Barns and Nobles, my entire family is crazy like me and loves books. I bought a nice leaterbound journal that will become my travel journal, for those times I do not have access to my computer yet want to write a long rant, and a copy of Sweeny Todd. My mom apperently wants the GiT (Geek in Training, aka target practise aka Sister's child) to grow up as close to bilingual as she can. My mom wants to read english books to her. Guess who is going to be in charge of talking to the child in english? Then we fussed about, and brought shoes. Shoes are very expensive in Norway and since my parents where so amazed at the price I ended up with three pairs, one for everyday, one for fencing and one pair or slightly nicer high heeled ones (because I need to be taller...By the way, for those of you who have seen my family, my mom and brother are the average height for their sexes, see why I say I am short?). Then Osaka, my family have never had Sushi before but they loved it. Sushi is very expensive in Norway for some reason. I mean the dinner we had could easily have been three times more expensive. After Osaka I headed home, talked to Miriam and her mother and chilled, watched Sopranos and talked to Claire.
