Well, I've made it half way through the week. All of this rushing around, no time, late night, sleep deprived way of life isn't so bad. After you get past the feelings of loneliness, despair, and exhaustion, all that's left are the feelings of emptiness and apathy.
I'm getting some pretty good work from my step dad. I'm doing whatever jobs he can think of for $7 an hour. I think at this rate I won't have to have to take out loans again for presents. I need to get Kelsey and Emma's Christmas lists. As for Mom and Bryan, I have no idea what to get for old people. Hmmm... Eric would probably like another pocket knife for his collection, or maybe some office supplies to add some extra efficiency to his dorm room.
That's enough rambling about that subject, it's time to ramble about my day. Today was as eventful as Monday and Tuesday (which I didn't write about). It started as most bad days of mine do. I was having a wonderful dream about something I can't remember, when all of a sudden I awoke (for no apparent reason). I looked over at my alarm clock (which I had forgotten to set), and it was 7:00. Yes, I had overslept yet again! It wasn't too bad. After all, I have woken up because of the school bus honking outside my window, and still made it on time. School was horrible (yet I would still answer fine when my mother asked). I think I fell asleep a few times in Spanish, World Cultures, and English. We had fitness day in P.E. (which is resposible for my legs feeling like jello). Eventually, I made it home. Bryan had been thinking of some interesting work for me. I worked until about 6:30, ate dinner, and went off to practice.
Practice wasn't bad. Not very efficient, but at least I was used this time. What matters it what happened after practice. Things like this add some humor to a day like this (though it left me scarred). I was walking out to the front entrance to wait to be picked up, when I noticed the huge crowd of women in the theater entrance hall. So, I sat and waited. I noticed this group of girls pointing at me and then giggling. There was something odd about them, I just couldn't put my finger on it. Another thing I noticed was that everyone was talking in a strange accent. It was a familiar one, but I just couldn't tell. Out of curiosity, I asked the woman in the box office what was going on in the theater. She told me it was a show called Colors. Then I asked something I now realize was better left for me NOT to know. I asked her what it was about. She replied "It's a drag show, it's pretty good." Suddenly, everything made sense. The accents, the odd aura, the guys I saw walking around backstage with strange wigs, I understood perfectly what was going on. Those women were actually dudes! The man/woman who had been sitting next to me told me that he/she had an extra ticket if I wanted to come with him/her. So, naturally, I did what any other straight man would do under such conditions, I panicked. Don't get me wrong, I'm not homophobic, or anti gay, but under the conditions I kinda freaked out. I spent the rest of my time waiting outside in the parking lot (I was also in fetal position sucking my thumb).
My ride eventually came, I got home took a shower, got a snack, and started on my homework (which I just finished). So concludes my day.
Thought of the Day: Daydreams of CDW, guitar, and Rachel.
Quote of the Day:
(in Spanish class)
Mr. Luesse: Oh, I just love the faculty Christmas parties. There so much fun. All of the teachers are there getting drunk. Especially, Mrs. Eisenminger. She gets really krunked, and then she gets up on the table and start's taking off her clothes...
Students: Ewwwww... Gross! BAD MENTAL IMAGE! I think I'm gonna be sick. That's disgusting!
Mr. Luesse: You know I'm just kidding.
Student: IT'S STILL A MENTAL IMAGE THAT'LL LEAVE ME SCARRED FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!
Gossip of the Day: I don't usually pay much attention to rumors and junk like this, but maybe one of you can tell me I'm wrong. Is Ellen Ekert really pregnant?
Person of the Day: I have a few (believe it or not).
Henry: Thanks for keeping me sane. I get up in the morning looking forward to having lunch with you. Then after it's over, I can't wait until tomorrows meal.
Ross: I'm glad you have a place to stay now (don't stay up TOO late though). I hope things are starting to look up for you. I hope you have a lot of fun staying with Ken and Chase.
Rachel: Ahhh... love sweet love.
I miss all of you so much! This week is going soooooo slow. It feels like it's been months. I wan't my life back!
