yesterfday started way too early for a saturday. told mom i'd take her n boo out shopping so we went a few places in roanoke looking for boo an outfit for the dance and mom some clothes for baccalaureate and graduation. boo ended up grouchy when not many things looked good on her fairly large body and started pouting about being fat. mom got grouchy b/c we were out too long and her back hurt. the 2 of them started fighting.
boo: i look fat
mom: well let's get something else
boo: i look fat in everything
mom: you do not
boo: MOM, I'M FAT!
mom: SO GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!
boo: YOU'RE AN ANNOYING BUTT-HEAD!
mom: IF THAT'S WHAT I AM, THEN WHAT ARE YOU?
um, are you freaking kidding me? ugh. so the morning wasn't too great. i convinced mom to buy something for herself for once. she got a nice pair of pants and a nice jacket, both about 70 bucks... but she has no clothes and they looked good on her. boo got a cute skirt and shirt for the dance and we got her some flip flops and jewelry to match. it turned out looking nice. i was being nice to both of them. but they suck anyway.
so jen's voice died. mine almost died. i found some tea in the back of the cabinet and brewed myself a cup... and added some "mulling spices" i found. what that means, i really don't know. well, i hate hot tea and th spices were all cinnamony which i also hate, but tea's good for your throat and voice so i drank it down. how was i to know that tea is super-caffenated? anyway, get to the school and jen's there, sick as all get out so i finally got her to go home. leah took her place on stage, w/ a script in hand. sean was the knight in the corner, but almost threw up at one point and had to walk off stage for a bit. given had to do the part of the figure and she was nervous and got me MORE nervous. paul had to do lights and the announcer. jess was back to play her part, but still a bit sick. katie was sick. and the caffeine made me shake like a mad woman. BUT... our final performance turned out well. no big flubs. i'm proud. stayed late to rip down the set and rearrange the cafeteria and then to hang out w/ some chips.
today, i feel like HELL. stupid cold. so i slept in and complained all day. took a 2 hour nap then decided after dinner i'd go out and get us all some ice cream since mom had a craving for a wendy's frosty and, well, it was mother's day... and i adn't done crap. took pepper w/ me and went through 2 drivethrus (first time... um... ever i think). got mom's ice cream and then went to DQ to get boo, dad, pepper, and i our ice cream. when i got home, pepper knocked the tray and the ice cream almost fell, but didn't. then when i got out, mom's ice cream toppled over in the driveway. i picked it up as quickly as i could and actually cried over it. boo's ice cream was melted since they took a while to make mine n dad's and mom's was half gone. i guess just feeling crappy and trying to do something nice doesn't mix. blah, can't believe i cried.
won't be up long tonight, but skipping school tomorrow morning. no sense in going to gov't and not doing anything... expecially w/ an extended period. no thanks. time to go suck some more.
crapfully crappy
