Last night was fantastic. I went swimming in the dark and mary anne went to her boyfriend's house. i guess they have reached some new point in the relationship because she sleeps over there on weeknights now. at first it made me lonley but now it makes me glad because after i go swimming at night I can stumble inside my room and do whatever i want just like i did last night.
Not that i did much at all. I put a hoodie on over my bathing suit and went to sleep just like that with my face planted in my pillow and it ruled. Now my sheets smell like chlorine so i guess i should wash them. but im secretly hoping that all of my nights will end this way, so maybe i'll hold off on the laundry for now. chlorine sheets for life!
ok hey, when i went to visit micki in killer cali this spring break, we went over to her boyfriend's grandparents' huggggge house and they had this amazing pool. we didnt swim in it because we had other plans (movie plus In-N-Out by the fireplace) but good greif it was one of the prettiest pools I had ever seen in my life. I love pools.
One night during summer '01, my then-boyfriend nick took me to this friend of his mom's friend's whoever's house in La Porte. The house was so big and nice and it was right on the water with a beautiful view. Just me, nick, and his best friend jimmy. Heck no, of course there weren't any parents! The owners were out of town! and Nick was old enough to drive and had his own car! just three kids driving in a fucking car to a house on the lake with zero parents and one pool. It was a great pool with colored lights and those rocks all around the edges and a whole lot of plants to make you feel like you're in paradise, or whatever. And it did feel like paradise until nick spotted a HUGE SPIDER or maybe even a TARANTULA walking around on the surface of the water in the pool (i had no idea they could even do that!). I'll admit that I don't know what makes a spider a tarantula and i'm too lazy to figure it out. but nevermind what it was-- it was at least BIG and SCARY.)
i had to do everything in my power not to scream shrill like girl but i did get out of the water really fast. nick grabbed a broom and stuck the end of it into the water so that the spider could climb onto the end. then Nick walked over and pointed the spidered stick toward me and i got so mad and yelled "NICK!!!!!!!!" and then he stopped and laughed. and then i laughed too. And we dried off and got back into his car and rolled down the windows and drove back home while jimmy sat in the back seat talking about who knows what. Jimmy was ALWAYS in the back seat and i NEVER knew what he was talking about.
