nobody's missed my posting, i'm sure, but you as an individual dont know that, so i'll tell you that people have been im'ing me frantically, calling me on the phone, and driving over in tears to BEG me to post again! ....yea....
anyway! the broadening of the list, as promised:
first thing the list says is... the LAN! yey! i got out of school on thursday at 12:45 and rushed home to get all my computer stuff thrown into the car and drive to cams church. i left at about 1:40, we (stepdad drove) picked up taco bell on the way, and i got there maybe 2:10 or so. i started helping set things up, and installed my *new* Logitech Elite Wireless Duo keyboard and mouse (early b-day prezzie from my mom, since my keyboard broke wednesday night). around 3 bryan arrived and set stuff up, then maybe 3:30 chris and drew came in. then came thomas, alé, and pablo.. aroon, blake, and elizabeth appeared sometime after that, then theresa, then nick. kathy and emily stayed for about 15 minutes (a long drive to make for a 5 minute hello!). chris, drew, bry, and i made a run to frys maybe 5ish to get drew a network card, and we all played CS. YEY! t'was fun fun. blake made us all feel very bad on DDR, and we had pizza and stuff. generally we had a good good time. went home at around 12, i hitched a ride with chris and drew cuz chris said we could maybe stop by gentry's hotel and say hi (he's never met grinch) but a storm came in so they took me straight home, helped me carry my stuff in, and then headed home themselves. stayed up late that night talking to people! lol.
friday morning i was supposed to call chris at 9 and tell him whether he and drew could come and dig up the garden or not... but i didnt. slept through my alarm and didnt wake up till 10:30 or 11 or so.. i felt bad. i got online and apologised frantically to drew, then took a record shower of 22 minutes (thats
with washing my hair and shaving... a miracle!) but i couldnt get ahold of chris so it didnt really matter (he was doing other chores). around 2 they came and worked for 3 hours digging up the garden. i worked on my turtles cage and talked and watched and brought them water (i'm so kind). i was planning to try and go to frys with gentry and bry, but no one would give us a ride. so instead i joined gentry for this huge get-together dinner gentrys parents and all the parents they know have whenever the hearns come back into arlington. it was fun, aroon was there, max was there, and two other guys, charlie, and nick (henceforth to be called nick2). it was very squashed, but the food was very very very good even if it did take..... a
long time to get here.. afterwards me, gentry, aroon, and nick2 all went out to see 'bruce almighty' (my second time) and met alé and blake at eastchase. we watched some guys get busted out in the front... 8 police cars arrived, sirens blaring and all. i dont really see why.. it didnt seem like that big of a deal.. none of them were fighting or even trying to get away or anything. maybe one pulled a gun or something. anyway, aroon was scared cuz one pulled in the parkinglot behind us as we went into eastchase and he'd been doing 100 down I-30.. i mean.. he'd been driving sensibly.. so he wasnt scared.... when alé arrived he said the same.. hehe. so we saw the movie and they all thought it was great.. as blake put it 'that's the most i've laughed since i was
Rejected for the first time...' YOU KNOW IT'S GOTTA BE GOOD!! lol. i love that movie. after that we headed home, but it was cool cuz i got to sit shotgun and admire aroon's dad's navigation system... so cool! then i probably stayed up late talking to people and then went to bed.. but thats where my memory begins to fade...
i really have no clue what i did over the weekend.... i've been asking people but they dont know either... so here's a copy paste of my asking bry and cam what i did to give you the general idea.. this is about as much as i remember, so no.. i cant clarify..:
freezefire666: do you have any idea what i did on saturday or sunday?
AmidalaLover5000: ...no
freezefire666: hm.. i cant remember
AmidalaLover5000: well on sunday
AmidalaLover5000: I gave you the video card
AmidalaLover5000: and we talked & played CS that night
freezefire666: oh yea... what else did i do that day...
freezefire666: *thinks*
freezefire666: i woke up really late
AmidalaLover5000: saturday I think you did work for you mom all day
AmidalaLover5000: hmm
freezefire666: hm..
freezefire666: i really cant remember at all
freezefire666: lol
AmidalaLover5000: oh and your turtle tank was messed up
freezefire666: ohhh yea thats what i did all weekend..
freezefire666: lol
AmidalaLover5000: did someone slip you a ruffie?
freezefire666: not that i know of.. but then that defeats the purpose of 'slip' doesnt it...?
freezefire666: hey do you remember what in the world i did saturday or sunday??
OA Scout 394: nope
freezefire666: neither do i!
OA Scout 394: i was out of town
freezefire666: it's frustrating me
ok i lied.. i can clarify a bit... i worked on my turtle cage a hella lot.. got it all set up, then it was leaking.. went out, got another one.. set it up.. its working pretty good.. but ya aquariums are heavy and so is 10 gallons of water... i got brys old video card on sunday and played CS with bry that night online.. my EmXP now plays it beautifully, but my internet leaves much to be desired.... i keep loosing connection and the connection is worse than my laptop. the best ping i can get on ASE is 50 (if i'm lucky) and my laptop gets 15 or 20 usually. ai!
ok so monday was two days ago, and i remember what i did then, yey!! after school i ate some lunch then cam picked me up and i went to help him move from his grandmother's house to his new apartment nearer to the civilized world ( : P ). it was fun. we lugged beds around and stuff and chealsea (his sister) helped. then we went and picked up gentry from his hotel around 5 and went off to the glorious frys in irving to show gentry what wonders lie within frys. we hung around too long and my mom got mad cuz i wasnt going to be home by 9 (my curfew for school nights). cams mom had given us money to have dinner since i helped them move so we ate hamburgers at chilis and covered our tip with $.75 of egyption pounds (the money) to confuse our waiter, who was nice. then i went home. slept.
yesterday i also remember what i did! go me! i'm getting good at this, eh? after arriving at home i changed quickly into some clothes i could get all sweaty in and set off rollerblading with my minidisk player. it was good fun, even if it was way way hot. around 1:40 i was skating down margaret in front of butler and chris and drew came down rocky canyon to work on the roots in the garden they'd dug up earlier. so i skated after them down rocky canyon and made pretty good time if you ask me. then i watched them work for 4 hours, and got sunburned (always fun). they left at 5:40 cuz my mom wasnt willing to pay them any more, but they've still got two roots to get out (it's hard work too.. they really were working) so they're coming back next week to get them, free of charge. that'll be the fourth time they've come over lol. i'll miss em, it's been all regular, them coming over once every week to do something, heh. spent the rest of the day being lazy. watched three shows for the second time yesterday: south park, futurama, and family guy. all very funny. watched 'whose line is it anyway?' as well.. oh lord i love that show. to quote from what i wrote somewhere else:
"lord that show gives me happy seizures. if i ignore everything else, and just watch that show, i get so happy. happy seizures. when i get so happy i just have to MOVE. usually i end up giggling and slouching and twisting all over the place. i cant help it. but when you're that happy, you dont care. happy seizures are good for you. that ryan stiles guy is awesome."
so yes. it was good. i was tired, though, so i fell asleep around midnight. today my legs and back hurt from blading, but it's all good!
PHEW ok now i can stop sitting around worrying about doing this post. it really has been in the back of my mind for a week now, it's been very annoying. now i'm up to date and good to procrastinate some more! i might have to come back and update the weekend, if someone tells me what i did, or i suddenly remember, but i think i mostly sat around the house and worked on my turtle cage. anyway. lunch time now. i'm hungry.
