With a view from the starlight
Yesterday after school Julie came over for our first sewing meeting, and we looked at pics, did some research, and made a few descitions. I'm going to the bank today, and then I'll order my stays pattern so we can start sewing next week ^.^ This whole process is totally overwhelming and yet exciting at the same time- it's going to be so much fun! Plus, it gives Julie and I a regular time to hang out since we don't have any classes together.
Drew had a friend over after school too-Tim. Time ended up staying for dinner, which sort of left me on my own since Julia and Lydie weren't home (eeew, middle school boys >.<) So I decided to back chocolate chip cookies. Just as I announced this plan to my parents, the phone rang. I jumped up, and low and behold it was Sam and Caroline on a three-way call!!! They were bored, I was bored, so out they came.
We hung out in my room (which I hurriedly cleaned) for a bit, then went to play Guitar Hero- but my memory card was gone! with all the data on it!!! So we attacked Drew and Tim who were upstairs on the computer and made them go look for it. At the time they were in the middle of make a new character on World of Warcraft, so we finished it for them *evil laughter*. We named him Pocahontas. Then we made him run around and kill things for a bit, but we kept dying. Ah, well. Finally we decided to go bake cookies, at which point Drew found the memory card. Lydie was home from her basketball game at this point, and so she, mom, Sam, Caroline, and I all played 99. After a couple of half-annoying, half-intense rounds (Sam/I won the 1st, Lydie/Caroline the 2nd) we decided to go watch Buffy.
We watched Dopelganland, during which Sam kept drifting off to sleep, and then hung out in the living room for a while filming each other with my poor, sad, dead video camera. Finally, after complaining about how tired we were for a good 10 minutes, we went to play Guitar Hero. That didn't last particularly long, since none of us were really top of our game, but we played for a while. We all scored 90%!! yay us!! Then it was time for bed...in theory.
We all piled upstairs to my room, and hung out there for a couple of hours. Sam gives really good massages, so he treated both Caroline and I to one, so then I gave him one. Then we found my pillow that has the little massage thing in it, so we played with that for a while. And Caroline read a trashy romance novel...and we talked. And laughed. And wrote in our special journal. Finally, at 3am, we went to bed...except then Caroline and I talked for a while after. (Sam was sleeping downstairs on the couch.)
This morning Sam had to work, so he woke Caroline and I up at 7 and made us go downstairs. We collapsed on the couch for a while and watched some more Buffy, then pulled ourselves up enough to make eggs and toast. After they left around 9, I watched Angel, Numb3rs, and Heroes and then took a nap. I just woke up and had lunch...and am really not sure what to do with myself. Should probably go be civil to my parents, since I do need to go to the bank today.
It was a really fun night, which perked up what was kind of a bad week.
Kisses,
