my lip gloss be poppin'
Oberlin's class of 2007 just graduated. I wore a blue dress that was too short and got mildly sunburned.
I completely forgot that I requested Tuesday off and can therefore hang around Oberlin for another day, which is pretty excellent. Just... not doing much is extremely nice. Reading some comic books. Reading some trashy magazines. I'm just sitting around the house at the moment, as most of the visitors have already left and most of the graduates have gone to eat with their parents.
We did in fact go visit Motorhouse Saturday night at one point; we weren't able to break in, but we were able to sit on a couch on the porch and enjoy the view, throw a stroller on the roof, pee on the porch, push the couch directly in front of the front door, steal one of the shopping carts (which are still in the backyard after a year!) and roll Farah down Main Street in it.
Myra and I went to pick up Alli at the Feve while Sarah and Sam tried to avoid a cop car by pushing shopping-cart-with-Farah around a corner and going around the back of the Feve, but the cop car followed them into the back alley. I did not see this myself, but I did see a cop sort of running in that direction and followed him on a hunch and got to peek around a corner to watch Sam and Farah getting interrogated about the shopping cart by three cops. There were two cop cars to deal with that shopping cart.
Got to see Dan, which was excellent... it was heartening to hear that he worked a succesion of bitch jobs for many years before he got his first book published.
Sam showed me the video for Lip Gloss. It makes me really happy.
