today was nice.
after pictures, kate, nugget, and i took the back stairwell up to the english wing. we had found a podium in the hallway and we placed it in the stairwell for kicks. i wonder if anyone found it.
i got a permanent seat away from my friends in english. for being an asshole. but they moved over near me since they're still free to sit wherever they want. so it worked out well. then mr. beitmen stole my newest cd's from matt and put one of them in his computer and began to dance. i stayed after to talk to him for a moment, found out he listens to the velvet underground and likes lou reed, and my respect level for him raised a notch or two. even if he isn't entirely wonderful at teaching. blah blah blah, lunch, biology, chemistry (the test went horribly). matt came to find me after chemistry. we proceeded to walk to mrs. burns' room for our key club crap. had 45 minutes to kill so we wandered around and talked and i got to have a discussion with hunter as well. very cool 45 minutes. then matt and i got this old couple to talk to. matt and the man got into this massive heated political talk and the guy's wife, being a very conservative republican, looked like she was going to go into cardiac arrest. the old people liked the cake. even matt ate some. the old lady whom we were fortunate enough to speak to looked really bored during the political talk, and i was kinda just staring at the centerpiece, mr. pumpkin, and half-listening/kicking matt under the table/trying not to laugh, because i'd talked about all this with him on the phone over the previous couple of days. the old lady finally went insane with boredom and got really pale to where she blended in with her hair, and she started asking me loudly what my opinions on sheer drapery happened to be. i didn't tell her that i don't have opinions on sheer drapery. but i carried on the conversation so she didn't try to slit her wrists with her plastic knife. she liked my cake too. she thought it was strawberry. all the old ladies were like "is this cherry, or is this strawberry?" because it was pink. they were like preschoolers, thinking color and taste were associated. it was damn food coloring. really though i had a nice time. then we cleaned up, and someone says "what do we do with all the desserts?" and nugget goes "GIVE THEM TO MRS. BURNS, SHE'LL EAT THEM!" and everyone was cracking up. he was so lucky she wasn't there. i walked and talked with matt some more, then some more after that, then he left and i left with kate and nugget to go get dinner before returning to school yet again for a presentation about whales. (extra credit for ap biology.) the presentation was so freaking boring, like looking at someone's cruise pictures, because in every single picture the lady was like "oh here's me with a humpback in the pacific where i spent 23 years studying barnacles on their dorsal fins" and i was going nuts. matt was there though and he of course had a smartass remark to make after everything the lady said, so it really was ok. mrs. shepard heard nugget being loud and obnoxious and took away his extra credit. he was conjugating one of his spanish verbs very loudly because it was like "puse, puso, pusimos, pusimas" etc. and it really was funny. poor guy though. he never knows when to stop and he gets himself in lots and lots of trouble. i got another note (yessss) then we took kate home.
biiiig trouble. will got out to walk her to the door and i got in the driver's seat and backed out of her driveway doing will's "pimp stop" and then i drove to the end of her block and he had to come walk all the way out there. he was mad. he needed the exercise though. american youths are lazy and obese.
alllrrright. i'm going to bed.
i hope that each and every one of you had a WONDERFUL day, just like i did.
