Smile - Got another carload of stuff up from my parents place to my house. And despite the terrible thunderstorms we drove through everything got up safe and secure. Including my Groucho painting, my Don Rosa Scrooge McDucks art, my impossible to replace books/games, and my 9ft long 4th Doctor scarf patterned afghan.
Ticked - My little brother and his wife asked if they could come up this weekend. Now they are not like Luke's house guest, they are actually really cool. Its just that the guest bedroom was the last room we were going to paint, since my wife still hasnt chosen the color. Also, due to how it was designed, it is our second most difficult to paint room (first being the foyer with its 20ft ceiling and crystal chandelier). If we dont get the room done by weekend, they will have to stay at a hotel because she is really allergic to cats and the medicine wont let her sleep. So instead of fixing up the living room so we can buy/build book cases next weekend, I have to continue trying to paint... Which I really dont have a big issue with, its just annoying.

Have you got Guaraná Antarctica where you live?
There's an international grocery store in the St. Louis suburbs that imports it. Really expensive stuff (I think a case is like $35) but on the rare occasion I get some it's easily my favorite fruit soda. I wish Pepsi or Coke would market it in the US under their Mountain Dew or Fanta labels.

I don't know what happens, the same company distributes Pepsi and Guaraná Antarctica in Brazil.
But yeah, it's pretty great. It's the only soda that gives Coke a run for its money around here.
Coca-Cola actually has a guaraná brand in Brazil, but most people feel it's inferior to Antarctica. Still, it's alright. I always thought the can was pretty cool:
