rockstar
saturday, blair and i met my cousins nikki, joey, patrick, and ben, plus friends lindsay and amber, up at kings dominion. that was sooooo much fun. i haven't ridden a rollercoaster in a few years, which was kinda scary considering i've gotten sick on a plane and a helicopter since then... but as it turns out, rollercoasters don't bother me, so yay for that! we rode the flight of fear, i think it's called, the one inside. man... that will knock the wind out of you! it looked like rain all day long, but it never did rain, so there was still a crowd, but it wasn't unbearable at all.
we got home around 10:00 to discover about 40 people at my house for katherine's party. and more kept coming. i hung out with the cousins for most of the night, then stayed up to make sure that the people who weren't allowed to stay had rides home. that took until 5:30 or so. i woke up around 9:00 in the hall upstairs... i guess that's where i passed out? who knows. got in my bed and went back to sleep until 1:00. the house is still a friggin' wreck, but i'm letting katherine handle that.
sunday, kath and blair both left for the lake, so i've been recording since then. it's a lot harder than i had originally thought, but i love being able to listen to everything put together. james thinks i should really submit this stuff and try to get in the business as a songwriter. i think i'm a little too self-conscious for that, but it's cool that he thinks i could do it. he was in tennessee for two years in the music industry, so i guess he knows better than some. i would love to be able to sit and write music all day, but it seems like such a dream that i don't know if i could ever really put myself out there.
went to the karaoke bar last night with bill and leslie, and keith and his wife. james sang once and it sounded really good. they were trying to get me to sing, but i had been recording all day and my voice was tired, so i didn't really want to. so instead i got to dance with james. i'll be honest, i'm actually starting to not mind dancing so much. i think part of it is that he is a really good dancer, and a really good leader, so it's easy to follow what he's doing. but he loves to spin me, which is okay every once in a while, but after a few drinks, it starts to make me kinda dizzy. we were dancing and i had a piece of gum in my mouth, so when he asked me if i dipped, i was very confused. i was like, "no. it's gum. you know i'm paranoid about staining my teeth, why would i dip?!"
haha, turns out he meant he wanted to dip me. dancing. i guess he just didn't want to fling me backwards without asking first. very nice of him. hahaha. james drove me home and slept on my couch again, only this time i slept there with him. it was very cozy. yay! :) i love to snuggle.
