What is something really fun/cool/awesome/unusual that you've done recently?

I bought a telescope

I only went into the shop for soup and it was sitting there looking at me and only cost £60! I hope to be seeing many heavenly bodies soon

So you just went for soup eh? haha
I hope you see something wonderful out there.

There's a shop near you that sells soup and telescopes?

It's a store called Lidl which sells groceries but also, from time to time, has excellent offers on electrical goods, tools etc. I have to keep Mr D away from the gadgets and tools because he just starts foaming at the mouth with excitement

Oh -- I think Aldi is the U.S. equivalent, come to think of it.

We have an Aldi too - yes they are much the same

Lets see...found out I got accepted to State University of NY in Plattsburgh and am now making plans to move.....last night I went out kareoking with friends and then went to IHOP...got stared at alot.....I guess they've never seen a goth before that isn't wearing trips....then my friends went clubbing and I had to go home because I'm too young...then woke up early today to go to my sister's cheerleading...I think that 'bout sums it up.

Congrats DarkHippie!

Yesterday I took two of my tarantulas to school for my entomology class. Everybody loved them and they asked a lot of questions that I was happy to answer. I always like to inspire curiosity in people. ^_^

I... finally figured out how to use Nero 8 to burn DVDs in conjunction with DVD Decryptor... so now I can bootleg movies via downloads (which I mostly use for television shows since they take less disks this way) and movies/anime from the actual disk (since some movies and practically all dual-language anime are hard to find a download for.)
Can't wait to have my 520 disk cd/dvd wallet is full and I need to buy another.

Ugh... I should be receiving my W2 sometime next week...
Taxes "easy" to do? This'll be my first year doing them on my own; half tempted to just take my W2, 1099 thingie, and whatever else they need to H&R Block. ^.^;

Do 'em online.
Go here,it's easier than what I did.

Just a few days ago I went bowling, (it was part of a school trip. I really went along just for the mall trip afterwards.) I've only been out bowling twice. Its obviously been a long time since I've done that because, last time all the scores and such were recorded on paper. Now its all electronic.

The marvels of modern technology.

I also found out I suck at bowling. While all the other groups had scores of about 111 by the end, my group's scores were in the 30s and 40s. Though I don't feel so bad because I had the highest score in the group.

I kind of liked wearing the bowling shoes. Partially because I could actually move my ankles(something I can't do with the high-top Vans I usually wear) and partially because I have a strange fascination with hideous shoes.

They're easy as hell to do. If you do it online you don't even need any extra documents but your W2s. I usually use Taxslayer, but I guess there's an online quicken one.

I've started playing roller derby

^^ Awesome! Do we get to see pics, or to know your name?

This is the group we've got down here:
http://www.carolinarollergirls.com/

^^I just posted a topic asking people to help me think of a derby name, because I want something else besides orpheus faust

Yeah sorry, I noticed that topic after posting in this one.
