I Love It When...

You invite six friends over for a movie fiesta and you don't get through any of the movies you intended to watch.

...no, seriously. It was really fun. It's usually irritating to me when I can't understand a movie because people are talking, but it was actually very entertaining when we got off topic and just started randomly talking about something a movie gave us an idea on.

The best thing about this is that none of us were drunk or stoned. We pigged out on nachos, a huge 3liter grape-soda thing and junk food. And a bag of chocolate chips. No alcohol or weed was involved. And yet we laughed hysterically and told outrageous stories.

I guess this proved to me that you can have fun without alcohol. The general high school population seems to be under the assumption that the only way to have fun is to get drunk and do something stupid.

What a bunch of bullshit. Life is more fun when you're lucid to enjoy it. We've been running a circut for movie parties at various friends' houses -- it started with a Grindhouse showdown at one's guy's house, an action/comedy thing at another guy's house, an action fiesta at my house, and a zombie party at my other friend's house in two weeks. And after that? Kung-Fu Night.

See what I mean? It's fun. It makes small-town living in the winter after all the stores close survivable and entertaining. We enjoy one another's company and the films we watch.

Just something I thought I'd reflect on.
