Hello Procrastination

Mar 02, 2006 21:46

Monday thru Tuesday my entire school was on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test schedule. In other words, they pushed it all on us in two long periods. I took the test in Mrs. Hipps’ room both days, which was pretty weird for me, sitting in with people like Grongor and Kyle Rich for two hours at a time. If anything, it was a barrel of sugared up monkeys in the end. So devilishly she had supplied every student candy treats in order to keep their slimy mouths busy during the FCAT (I question the effectiveness of that). I ate some chocolate and got sick on the second day, after the frustrating math portion of the test. Who cares about the dimensions of an imaginary can of beans?

I couldn’t make it to school on Wednesday for whatever reason. I think I was really tired or something along those lines. Sometime during the day my family really pissed me off - I mean, enough to where I just had to take off, had to get out of there before I ripped someone’s fat head off. A walk down Dearborn, a bit o’ Ween in my ears (The Mollusk to be precise), and the ambition to visit Zac caused the anger to recede quickly. My mind was off of my chaotic house hold and now swimming with thoughts of polka dot tails, mutilated lips, golden eels, and pink eye (on my leg).

To my delight, Dad found me on my Englewood Trek before I had reached my destination. It was great to see him so suddenly, especially after the quarrels back at home. He offered me a ride and I accepted, gladly. I instantly remembered that Zac wouldn’t have been home anyway - he attends a youth group with Nick every Wednesday and doesn’t come home until 6:00! Ah, so I was very lucky. After spending some time over me da’s apartment (watching the horses, eating tortilla concoctions) I finally did get to hang with Zac. We had a great time Weening and geeking. It’s too bad it was a school night or he could have stayed a tad longer.

Today is Thursday and not a lot is happening for me. Once again I’m just waiting for change and resisting my own efforts. I’ve been wasting away, playing Animal Crossing, leaving all my to-do's to the last minute. This weekend I might get to go out again if all goes well. In the mean time, I'll be stewing in fruitless procrastination.
