Ohio Follies

Apr 03, 2006 01:48

So.. I ended up going to Ohio even though I really didn't want to because there were just OH so many things that were going on this weekend. For one..APO Events--The cocktail party, the brother retreat, and the big event--and probably more things. Southwestern also had a sort of retreat/school of sorts up at Mountain Lake as well the next day. Seriously, the only reason I abandoned all of that was that not only did i want to see people really badly since I didnt get to during spring break, but that I was able to see Justin--to which I wasn't able to get a hold of him all weekend until the last minute. I guess I was worrying of sorts. i started getting all of these crazy ideas that he was ignoring me because of the weird and awkward parts of our last time together. I also figured that if somehow amongst the cosmos Barry found it somewhere deep down to actually become somewhat of a respectable human being, then there must be something exactly opposite somewhere. Fortunately it was not him--and i am going to meet up with him tomorrow at 10:30ish at Kenyon on my way back down to Virginia. I feel dumb for even doubting it. It must be Ohio--and the constant disappointment it supplies me with.

My trip in Ohio was a pretty good one.. I got to see a lot of people, but not everyone. I'm sorry if I didnt get to you, i thought it would be better to not say that I was even coming up rather than call and say that I couldnt get together.. Even though both options suck.. im just insanely busy I guess.. I took my brother, Angela and Jess to the Great Lakes Science Center in Cleveland, mainly because the Rock Hall was $20.00 to get into--what a ripoff.. and I remember when I went there in middle school and feeling like I didnt get to see it all because there was "SO many floors above us" that we didnt get to-- which, of course, ended up being administrative offices and the like. They had these really cool magnetic rocks at the gift shop--and I was thinking about getting some.. or this weird squishy thing that always like to slip out of your hand--its hard to explain, but I felt like I was caressing a condom that was, well, on. So sad.

Got to hang out with family a fair amount, and then got together with Stephanie and her insane friend Tricia. That girl, wow, was like the drunk little sister I never had. She would walk around screaming and talking on her cellphone almost constantly--she carried around this little safety deposit box--what was in it you ask? Cigarettes, Condoms, and an 84 page, yes EIGHTY FOUR PAGE cell phone bill. With seriously, 8,400 minutes used this month--and the bill was $400 some dollars. She reminds me a little bit of Melissa for those who know her.

I got to walk around the block with Barry for a little bit--I guess patched some more stuff up with him. Seems like he does actually care for this girl alot--we talked about alot of serious stuff. I guess it would figure that he would change to something suitable after this summer. That is Ohio drama for you--it will always screw everyone no matter who you are in some way, some how. Not so in Virginia.. I don't know why, I guess people just go with the flow rather than start shit.

I am now at Kent State university with my brother and i am going to sleep at his dorm tonight. I had hoped to get together with ffweatherman but it didn't end up working out--thats unfortunate. I have to take a shower soon because I didnt get one today because my grandmas house is vastly inequipped with a shower that "pisses on you" at best. We ate at Rosies, in which again I was unsure of what to get and spent about 4 minutes browsing around on their sheetz-like interface. And it appeared they didnt have any hamburgers--but their Philly Cheese chicken sandwiches, i think--were even better than owens, mainly because I could put lettuce, tomato, and mayo on it. I have to head out of here tomorrow at 7:30am because that is when the parking pass expires, and will go down to see Justin (i cant wait) until likely 2, and probably miss class tomorrow. Thats okay.. hes worth it.

im out.

kent state, cleveland, justin, ohio
