Friday.
After an hour long 4th period consisting of a Frankenstein quiz, a fire drill, and card playing, I burst out of the school to my burning hot car. Andrew, Ashley, Natalie, Matt, and I all went to the Duncansville Pizza Hut, apparently with about one-third of the rest of the school. We made it in, stuffed ourselves on the buffet, and then I went to drop Andrew back at his car in the school parking lot.

On our way back into the parking lot, we passed all the people playing frisbee in the band practice feild. I realized I felt like being outside, so I took Ashley home (because she had to go home) and went and played Ultimate Frisbee for prolly an hour or so. That was SO much fun. I always go abd play once, then am skeptical for weeks thinking nobody's going to want me there. I imagine I'll be showing up at Frisbee Club and all the other random times throughout this year.

So after that, I went back and got Ashley and we went to Target. Orginally there was supposed to be a fire at Andrew's that night, but thanks to the new burn ban on Blair County, we had to make other plans. We rented The Big Lebowski and watched that. I was so tired, I fell asleep in the last 10 minutes, but it's OK, I've seen it before. So I'm walking out to me car to take Keith home, and I happen to glance at my gas tank. The hood thinger was open, and the cap was gone. I had lost it before when I had gotten pissed at the fuel pump for not taking my credit card and driven away. I was initially VERY pissed off, mainly because I absolutely HATE doing stupid things almost as much as I absolutely HATE losing things. It was OK though, since my car was newer, it didn't exactly need a gas cap to function properly.

That was my Friday.

Saturday.
Woke up early (8am) and made breakfast, and then headed out to the Senior High. I met up with Britta, Josh, and Annie, and we got to work re-painting the Tiger Paw Path that heads up from Longer Elementary to the High School. Man, was that ever a blast.

We did it half for Civics points and half for fun. We repainted all but 2 places, mostly because those places either a) needed a template or b) needed more paint. It was so much fun. We were all so pumped at how much better it looked. At 3 o'clock, I had to leave to head out to start getting ready for work, but I think Josh and Britta were there until probably 4:30 or 5. We have to go back out next Saturday to finish.

So, with a splitting headache from squinting in the sun for 7 hours, plus a fever from burned cheeks, also from the sun, I went into Ollie's only to find out I was an hour late. My shift was supposed to be 4 to close, not 5 to close. I had come in at 5 because that was usually when I come in. I was really flustered, and really tired. One guy who works there was going around being all, "Yea, Cacie's hung over.", which I most certainly was not.

So, throughout the course of working, Jamie S., and Matt K., and I all presuaded Marty to let us see our yearly reports. He couldn't actually let us see them, since they weren't done, but he did manage to tell us that all of us had gotten 25 cent raises! I'm pretty pumped about that one. I will now, as of April 24, be making $6.75 at Ollie's Bargain Outlet. Now if only I could have the hours to go along with that.

After Ollie's, I had nothing to do, so I came home and discovered that Dawn Of The Dead was on. Now, this is a movie I've been wanting to see since the summer, and everyone else saw without me. I had been living on Nate's vivid description for a while, but I decided to watch. I actually liked it. Everyone had told me it sucked and I wasn't missing anything, but you know, I liked it.

So that was my Saturday.

Sunday.

After working from 12-5:30, I got off work to find Ashley waiting. We went to Walmart, and then I went home. I changed out of my Ollie's clothes and got in my car. I didn't really know where I was going, but I drove to Longer and got out and walked up to the senior high and turned around. I stopped at the swings on the playground and sat there. My walk took about 45 minutes, and it was damn great. I tend to usually hate being alone, but man, last night felt amazing walking all by myself.

Once I was done just thinking of nothing, I drove around and drove through downtown. There in a huge huddle were a bunch of kids trying to get a petition signed. Apparently, they're trying for a skatepark. I signed it. We do need one here. I've also seen them in school. I hope they can persuade whoever they're trying to persuade to build one.

After that, I went to Ashley's, ate apple crisp, watched Desperate Housewives, and then hurried home so I wouldn't miss any of Grey's Anatomy.

Today.
School was, as usual, boring and pointless. After school, however...

I went to Mrs. Puskar's room to get help on a packet. Once I was done, I headed out to my car. As I got closer, I noticed something taped to the driver side window. I took a look and realized it was my car key, taped to the INSIDE window of my car. Andrew had gotten back at me for tying his and Anna's cars to a tree last week (though 3 other people did that with me...) Once I got my door opened, I got to see what he had done. He had tied my wheel, shifter, visors, headrests, and inside doorhandles all together with craft wire. A whole role of craft wire. Once everyone had seen that I'd gotten in my car, the left me. I'm so happy I actually had my illegal box-cutter today, because I wouldn't have gotten out any other way. Half an hour later, I was done cutting, sawing, and untangling my car. I then drove to AutoZone and got a gas cap. It's bright red, as if to scream, "Better not lose this one, dumbass."

After that, other not noteworthy stuff happened. I did, as it seems right now, get a prom date tonight, though. Yay.

That's it. Wonder if anyone read this far?
