I spent the morning watching a good half hour of the 700 Club, two episodes of ER, and an episode of The West Wing. I love how my choice of television entertainment increased drastically over the course of the morning.
I wouldn't usually spend a cool summer day like this one in bed watching USA and TBS, but i'm pretty sick. Which is kind of funny, seeing as how its my first week of "freedom". My joints hurt, my eyes hurt when I focus on something to long (so summer reading is out), and I've got a sore throught. Three people in my house have had it so far, as well as Colleen and Maureen, and I'm over the fever part, so I just have a week or so of feeling shitty to look forward to. Nice.
Despite being ill, I went to Amelia's house and ate and talked. Then I went to Colleen's house to watch "Igby goes down" and "Bowling for Columbine", as well as almost collapsing. Around eleven I thought it might be a good idea to head home and get some sleep, wake up and get my dosage of right wing televangelism. Mmmm, goes down smooth.
My pool only needs like eight inchese of water and it will be functionable at last. And then I can have a large group of people over my house for the first time since sixth grade.
Apparently Geoff is still goign on vacation, and I'm still expected to go. I think they're planning on leaving on Saturday, but I definately think I'm going to have to tell him that I can't go. He basically assured me that if he failed biology we couldn't go, so when he did, I basically acted like I wasn't going, so I didn't get the week off from work. I'd have to get someone to cover for me on Saturday, and it being thursday now, it's looking kinda slim. Combined with the fact that I'm sick and will remain sick for the next few days, maybe a car trip to Maine isn't my best option. I have a feeling that things would be akward on that vacation.. very akward. Geoff's parents are pissed about the grades, and I'd kinda be in the middle of it.
I want this summer to be good. And I think it's possible. I hope my dad gets his truck fixed soon so he doesn't have to keep using my car during the day, but it's not looking so likely.
My throught feels like shit, so I'm going to go swallow massive amounts of chocolate ice cream until I freeze it into feeling better. Feel free to visit, if you'd like.
