St. Patricks Parade 3/15/2004
I worked all last night. Sat on the computer talking to Joe and Jen for the most part. Got off at 6am and drove to roseville to pick Jen and her brother Billy. They joined us at the parade this year. On the way there i thought a lot about Alycia. Past times...Every year with her family and mine at the parade. Memories. Its been almost 6 years and still its like she died yesterday. God I miss her. Her birthdays coming up. She would have been 21 on March 31st. I remember us talking about what we would do on our 21st birthday. Saddens me....So I picked up Jen and her brother. The were all dressed in green, had sparkles and hair paint. I thought yay they will fit right in with my family :-) My family btw goes all out for St. Patricks. We got to my house around 8am. Eveyone wasent arriveing until 9. I ran around wakeing people up. I was a little nervous trying to keep them entertained. I wasent sure what they thought of my family. Expecially with robbie, you either love him or u hate him....Hes got his obnoxious ways which are somewhat endeering. They pretty much obsirved my crazy family. It got hectic. I think they were amused tho. On the way there Jen tried talking to me but i was shy. I really hate being shy i hope i get past that with them soon. I can tell we would have a lot of fun. We went and sat in the Galiec legue. Took a lot of pictures. listened to the irish music. Walked around. I got clover beads. In the end Jen, Billy, my brother and I ended up hanging out just us. We walked to white castle. Ate outside on the sidewalk. Watched the parade together. There was this cool guy with a mohawk in the parade Jen and I ran, stoped the parade just so we could get a picture with him hehe. That was fun. I even got a kiss on the cheek. :-) I think Jen and her brother had a good time. Im glad because jens been going through a hard time latly. I'm trying to be there for her when I can. I was so tired today. Hadent slept for like 24 hours. ...i passed out when i got home.
There is a bit of....well i dont really know how to explain things between me hanging out with jen. Then me hanging out with Joe. I understand things, and their weird. Im wondeing what is going to happen on monday when/if i go over there. Theirs just these undercurrent thoughts/emotions that some people arent saying but i know are there i guess...thats the best i can explain...im weird. Ive never been in a situation like this before
I have pictures of the parade ask me for them!! :-)
