New Computer

My computer was sadly outdated. I replaced it, much to the anxiety of the Dib-creature. He’s been trying to convince GIR to stick a camera in my base, which doesn’t work. I’ve been reigning in Cheche a bit, because some people are actually concerned when Dib enters the school building with a black eye and a broken nose, even though it is his fault.

The visit from the Tallest went smoothly- it was a lot longer than I suspected it would be, and I couldn’t write in my blog while they were here, I had to make sure their trip was perfect! They were impressed by my progress on my latest plan and expect to hear another update soon. I’ll write again later,

The Tallest

The Tallest are here. Or, rather, not here, but in the tiny patch of space known as Earth's territory. I sent them the diagram of my latest plan and they are checking it out, making sure it's plausible, cause, y'know, they haven't always been in the past. They're coming down tomorrow to see my base and point out any flaws in the system or my plan. I'm kind of excited I guess you'd say.

Care is over to help me get the house ready. She's complaining because she can't sleep 'cause her mom took down her curtains and didn't put new ones up. I can empathize but I can't really sympathize, seeing as I don't sleep. Of course, she doesn't care. She just wants to rant.

Apparently my house is very dusty and Care and I are sitting on the couch, eating an Irken licking stick and telling GIR, Cheche, and Minimoose how clean the house well enough to pass inspection from people with even the worst cases of OCD. (Sometimes I think Care is one of those people, but don't tell her that). She's making them dust, swiffer, then vacuum, plus scrubbing all the encrusted crap off the floors from GIR's cooking explosions or my regular explosions (if you can call explosions regular). Then they have to polish all the floors until they shine. I guess this "guest" thing is harder than I thought.

She's leaving in 30 minutes and is leaving me a list of things I have to do, like clean all the computer monitors, clean the computer (which is another word for the house, but I think she meant all the cables), clean out all the subject tanks, expecially the ones with dead creatures in them (apparently that's bad hygiene).

So... I have to go. She's making me pay attention. UGH!!

InvaderCON

I'm thinking about going to InvaderCON. I mean, it's in MY honor, so I should go, right? It seems like a waste of my precious time though. I'm starting to get these microexpressions down, so I can tell when humans are lying. Like I could tell when Dib was lying to me about being over his want to catch me. Whatever, Dib. YOU SHRUGGED YOUR SHOULDER LIAR!

Anyway, InvaderCON kinda sounds interesting. I'm trying to wrestle up the money from my job to pay for the plane fare, because I can't use regular gas in my voot cruiser, and I'm waiting for a new shipment to come in. I already have the money from my last paycheck to pay for the ticket, but the plane fare's gonna be about $400. $400 I do not have. But, hopefully I will.

I figure I'll need about 750-800 dollars for this trip. Care's planning on going too, using her job. Her dad said he'd have to go too, and I think Sydney and Dib are also going. We'd probably have to coordinate for that. Dib and Sydney would probably have seats away from us on the plane so we didn't get in any fights. Whatever. I'm not in the mood for his nonsense anyway. I'm trying to actually have a plan that won't fall through like all the others, which is why I don't write very much about my plans. If I write, Dib will read. And I need to prevent that if I want to take down this filthy rock.

The tallests are coming near Earth in a few days. I asked them to possibly visit Earth- they could check on my progress, and we could chat for a bit. (We WERE classmates, after all). I really want them to see my latest plan- I've been working on it for a while and thinking it through more than I normally do, so I have hope for it. And the Tallest and I are old friends (if it's possible for 3 irkens to be friends) so it's been a while since we talked. I'm kind of excited for the trip- I gave GIR and Cheche new paint jobs- they look squeaky clean, but GIR went and jumped in the first mud puddle he could find when it rained last night.

Oh well, see ya later

Last Day of School

Today's the last day of school- crazy right? June 15th. Of course, I decided to skip. I think Care did too- she wasn't feeling good yesterday. I'm not really doing much today- I'm studying human emotions because Care started watching the television show Lie to Me and pointed out to me that there is much more to lying than simply controlling your face. I'm trying to program into my PAK the ability to see these "microexpressions", but it's taking a while. I guess that's Care's new thing- she's been taking test after test to see if she can do it. The first time she took one, she only got two wrong out of 10, which, (as she boasted to me over text) is better than a so called "natural" whose blog she read. Which is impressive, I guess.

Anyway, I'll write some more later.

Cya,
Z.

P.S. Here's the link to the test: It's pretty difficult, I only got 3 out of 10 my first try!

I Love Wisconsin!

I went to Wisconsin over the weekend- to Madeline Island. It was a long weekend, because of Memorial Day. It was a lot of fun Care told me to go cliff jumping while I was there, but I didn't have time. I went to Big Bay State & Town Park (Yes, both of them!) Because I wanted to know the difference. Big Bay State park is like a bunch of cliffs- I guess that's what Care meant by cliff jumping. I've gone there ever since I got on this rock, so I like it up there. Big Bay Town Park has a big lagoon- I went wading into it and had some leeches clinging to me... giving me ideas.

I'm working on possibly genetically enhancing leeches to grow larger with each generation. It doesn't take leeches very long to reproduce, so it will be a pretty short project. I would like them to be large enough to swallow a human meat-sac whole... maybe they could do some damage. Ah! I gotta go!!! THE TANK!!! AHHH!!! GIR!!! CHECHE STOP HIM!!!!! (bye!)

Research

I've been doing some research about the so called "Na'vi" from Avatar and have been referencing all the information about them in the movie in my computers database searching for aliens similar to them, and I came up with 2 that are actually quite similar. I looked at the differences and realized my computer was wrong (I know, scandalous!) and they were actually the SAME SPECIES! So, my conclusion? The director, (I don't know his name, and I don't care- Care would be pissed I just said that she loves that movie) must've been abducted. Anyway, on to more interesting news- They're finishing the unaired episodes of IZ. Amazing, right? Care can't wait to see 10 minutes to doom and The Trial. Well, I know this was short, but I have to go. Bye!

Finally weekend!

It's FINALLY the weekend, and it's the BIG ONE, folks. The weekend after Avatar came out. Great movie- Care went out around a half an hour after waking up yesterday to buy Avatar and watched it as soon as she got home from school with Sydney, me, Dib, and Mackenzie. Today in Science we were doing a lab with toothpicks to show radioactive aging or something... so Care and Jay were partners, and they were finally getting along. He wasn't stealing her calculator, or pencil, or something for ONCE! I was happy for her, cause she's liked him for AGES. Everyone can tell, except for him. They still need to finish the project on Monday, so hopefully he'll act the same, and them she won't be able to rule it off as him just being in a good mood. Cause, you know, I want something good to happen to her for a change, when it comes to guys for once, you know?

Well, I'm really busy this weekend. Care is too. She has a babysitting job, she might work for her dad, and she's hanging out with her friend Oana (pronounced WANNA) downtown, hopefully. All in 2 days! Sometimes I think being a human teenage must be really stressfull...
