Difficult not to feel a little bit dissappointed and passed over....

Mar 16, 2004 03:34

I don't know where to start really. I'd been meaning to update all throughout this week. The only time I actually got to it, it was like...going back to try and tell the story as it was still happening, which kind of sucks.

So....let's start the story up and get through the begining, middle, and end.

So because I honestly can't remember if I did anything with Eli on Monday, I shall explain

So, I went and picked up Trina from work to hang out. I didn't go to school today because I knew that my W drive was still missing and all I could do was sit there and do packets, and since I had done that on Monday after trying for 45 minutes to get it resolved, I decided it wasn't worth it to venture in to school. Therefore, we decided that we were going to party. We called Eli and said we were coming over, and when we got their, we called TJ and arranged to kidnap him. As we were driving down to pick TJ up from his house we experienced some of the fucking awesomeness that is Ashland and ran into the ever lovely Ashley (who used to have the awesome rainbow hair) right outside of Evo's. It was seriously, like, absolute synergy because TJ was walking in the crosswalk and Ashley was just right outside the car window. So Eli jumped out of the car, and Trina and I pulled up into the street above Evo's and walked down to laugh at the amazingness at it all. We all stood at the corner for about 10 or 15 minutes, but Ashley had to go, but she told us about open mic at Evo's that night at 7.

We all went back to Eli's house after that because Eli was expecting $50 for water proofing the front porch and well...we all know what he wanted to buy with that.

Trina and Eli split the cost with Mark and Melanie (Trina's roommates) and bought like, an 8th for both of them. So, we sat out back and smoked some bowls, and we started shot gunning (which is a way for two people to get a hit off of one toke; you pretty much kiss them and let them suck the smoke out of your mouth). I was really, really shy about it and didn't do it with anyone other than Trina like once, and then Trina told Eli to shotgun with me...and. Oh. My god. I know it really didn't count as a kiss, but it felt so good, like such a rush. I like, almost fell backwards I was feeling it that much.

...

Okay, so maybe it was a little bit of the pot too, but it was amazing for me, at least.

Around like, 8:30 or so we decided to head back to Ashland hoping that the open mic night was still going on at Evo's, and that TJ's aunt wasn't out on the hunt, since we were supposed to have brought him back by 8. Trina and I immediately went in because she had to pee, and I wanted to see Kimbo, since she was the one who organized it I guess. The two of them just stood outside and chain smoked. We eventually went back out there just because we were bored being left alone and just talked and shit. We then eventually took TJ and Eli home, and I got home at like, 11, or 11:30.

I slept so well that night. Partly because of the weed, but also because I was over the moon about like...my lips touching his lips. I've wanted to kiss him since I was like...14.



So, I got up and got ready for school because I'd woken up at 7:30, bright eyed and bushy tailed. It was still weird schedules for CAM conferences, so Orchestra was only like, 40 minutes. When I got home my mom was confused, but I explained it to her.

So then I called Eli around 11 and told him about my goof and he told me to come over because he still had some pot left from last night and he wanted to share it with me. So basically, I was like "I'm so fucking there!" and drove up to Ashland around 1:30 or 2ish (because I had to shower and be all prettified).

We sat around and laughed at each other and ate tortilla chips and chocolate chips together.

I stayed with him for hours. I didn't leave until 5:45 because he wanted me to stay until his dad got him, so he wouldn't be alone. I was more than happy to oblige.



Then when I got to class I just sort of tried to play it cool...because I was seriously, seriously, seriously high. I mean, I wasn't stupid high....just sort of relaxed high with a tendency to do stupid and clumsy shit (although, not really any more likely than usual). I tried to see if my W drive was fixed up yet and it still wasn't, so since I hadn't finished my English assignment from last week I sat down at an unoccupied computer and finished filling in the questions and wrote the expository essay that was needed to finish it up. I've never written a paper with such ease as I did with that paper. It baffles me still. But I asked Terri to read it before I printed it up and handed it in to Bernie and she started gushing about my vocabulary and writing skills, how I need to go to college, etc, etc. I was really high and holding back laughter.

I mean...I really don't take compliments well. I really don't. So getting complimented on something I wrote when I was blazed off my ass just sort of compounded the not-taking-compliments complex and made me really amused.

She caught some spots when she read over it where I was like on one train of thought and then took the sentence in a completely different direction, so that was good...because I really wouldn't have seen them. I won't even start on the whole drama that was going on because we couldn't figure out why the printer wasn't responding (which I resolved). I eventually got the paper printed and handed in to Bernie...and since I had nothing else to do I left.

I also had another fan-fucking-tabulous night of sleep. wooh daddy.

I didn't go to class Thursday. I can't really explain why. But I did hang out with my peeps. There was a concert at VIBES that night that we wanted to see (Fluid, The Better Half, and Nail Marry were some of the bands) and we were trying to gather together enough money to go to it all together (Eli, Trina, and myself). I called Eli at like 2 or so and he said the he wasn't going to go because he was expecting an important phone call and then TJ showed up and he said he had to go, so I got pissy and hung up on him (he wasn't really getting a phone call I guess...they had a nearly-naked hot tub party, which Trina and I only found about after we'd been with them for like an hour). I called Trina to tell her he was being an idiot and so we decided to hang out just to spite him because...what an ass!



I went and got Trina from work because she had to let Mark and Melanie use her car because their truck kicked the bucket. I was in a my denim skirt, my fishnet stalkings, and a top that was a tank top that had a fishnet shirt over it when I went to pick her up (this is in fact a pertinent detail). We decided that we were going to go and have a little girl time with each other at my house, so we went by her house just to grab some clothes for her to change into and her makeup bag. She wanted me to straighten her hair and I took it upon myself to do her makeup (and I made her look, liek, omg, super kewel!!21!). I also changed, like, five times before I settled on a final outfit. I changed initially because the skirt has a rip in it and it was annoying me, then I changed into a different shirt and skirt, then pants, and then another different shirt. I finally decided to wear my pinstripe corset-style halter top, and my black pants that I lurve.

We ended up calling Eli's house and we were told they were down at the plaza (because they are retahded). So, we finally left to go and find them. We got to Ashland, drove around the plaza and didn't see them, drove up through the park, saw people on a bench at the upper duck pond who we though were them (but turned out to be a couple making out...no idea why we thought that was Eli and TJ...lol), and then turned around and started going up Main Street, where we finally spotted them out front of The Varsity Theater.

I had to pull around the corner of that intersection to find a place to park (and thank god I found a spot right when I turned). Trina immediately got out and ran to greet them, but I went to my trunk to get my mary-janes and put them on so I wouldn't look weird wearing nice clothes with Birkenstocks. I walked down and there was all, trying to play it cool yet be kind of sexy and tempting, etc...because I'm a weirdo who can't articulate her thoughts.

TJ and Trina paired off with each other as usual, and I walked over to the ice cream shop with Eli as he went to go waste money on pointless yet amusing candy concoctions.

We sat on the planter in front of the Ashland Springs Hotel for like, 30 or 40 minutes, not without getting approached by one of the very colorful locals. I can't really remember why or how we decided this, but we went back to Eli's house for a little while because his family was out for a bit and he wanted to watch CKY2K and TJ had wet clothes to retrieve. Then we decided to come out to Medford to visit Trina's friend Ashley who works at Bad Ass Coffee and we were there for probably an hour just enjoying the atmosphere and laughing at really annoying drunk guys who got kicked out. Eli was getting all moody, and I was cold and hungry, so I took them here so I could get food and amaze TJ and Eli with the cuteness that is Milla.

We sat around in the living room, laughing and being stupid, and my mom was out there laughing with us too.

Um...I also changed like, two more times because I was cold. I decided to put back on the top I was wearing at the beginning of the day.

Eli was being moody and he kept going outside and chain smoking and I went out with him to keep him company and pick his brain...and like, put my head on his shoulder and make him know that I care about him and shit. Just, like, basically trying to be close to him in my inadvertently yet blatantly obvious ways.



But we did have some fun inside. Eli was sitting on the couch and Trina was like...lying on TJ and he kept tickling her and I um...sort of punched him in the balls. I felt so bad, but they were being really loud and I really didn't want my mom bitching at us. I mean...it got him to stop. I must be really horrible for thinking that is funny. But I tried to like, make it up to him because I gave him a mini massage (and I owe him a full body), and like, gave him a kiss on the forehead after he poked himself in the eye with his own damned spiked bracelet.

I really didn't want the night to end because I was mustering up courage this night to try and kiss Eli, but I ended up only taking a detour to make our time together a little longer.

So Trina had the day off and after I got out of orchestra, I went to her house because we had plans to make this weekend crazy insane since she had 3 whole days off of work.



I'd called Eli before I went over though and I don't know...he said he was going out to dinner with his family, so he couldn't hang out with us until like, 7. So I told him to call Trina's cell when he was ready for us to come and get him to go party our asses off like it was the end of the world. I told Trina this so we ended up at her house waiting around for a couple hours for her phone to charge and attempted to play Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (we were really bad at it). After about an hour or so it was charged up enough, so we went to my house to get all dressed. I never ended up putting makeup on, but I did get dressed pretty nicely. Trina wasn't feeling good and we discovered it was her monthly visitor, so I gave her some more comfortable pants to wear and some Midol. I put my fishnets back on, wore this mad crazy polka dot skirt I got forever ago, and my shirt that can zip across the chest. I also had on mad cute underwear. Heh. So, like, I was going to put makeup on but Eli called and was like, "dudes, where are you?"

So we rushed out to go get him and he told us he heard there was going to be a party up on Dead Indian. We began searching for the party at approximately 7:30 in the evening. We didn't actually end up finding it and arriving at it until about 12:15 in the morning. Heh. We drove up and down Dead Indian listening for music, following cars that looked like they were heading to the party, but around 9 or so Trina and I both had to really pee, and I needed gas. So we turned around and went back into Ashland and stopped at the Chevron. Eli ended up talking with the gas station attendant and he thought we should try the rock quarries up by Shail City Rd.

I was like, there is no way we could get up there on how much gas I have in my car....so in pursuit of the party, Eli put in 9 bucks. Trina and I got some Sierra Mists for refreshments and we were off again. We drove up to Shail City RD and we saw a bonfire, but we didn't think that it was the party because all we heard was like, primal screaming and shit...so we drove right by it (this was the party, it turns out). So, we start to go back down, all disheartened and shit and we see three Rice Rockets all in a row (this is what Eli likes to call soupped up Hondas). We all got that gleam in our eyes and I turned around at the nearest spot and jammed back up to follow them. We lost them around the cross-country snow park, but we kept driving to try and catch up to them. Then Eli got this wild hair up his ass that the party might be at Howard Prairie Lake. Um...no. The only thing up there other than dust was coyotes and bears. So after we turned around up there, we had pretty much given up on trying to find it and were going to just go down to the plaza to see what was happening.

When we got to the plaza nothing much was going on...we sat on a bench and were cold and then Eli's friend Eve drove up. This was the friend that told Eli about the party that we were absolutely convinced was non-existent. Yeah, we were wrong.



We ended up coordinating with Eve and some of her friends to follow behind her because she knew where it was at. We decided to meet up at the gas station before the turn off to the road, thinking it would take 15 minutes for all of us to convene, but one of her friends decided she "had" to drink a 40 before hand...so we sat waiting at the gas station for an hour and almost gave up on going all together.

But, because we were desperate party animals, we did wait, and when the two other cars with people got there, our caravan was off.

When we saw that the party was where we were before we felt really stupid, but it didn't matter because we were there now. So we all huddled around the bonfire because it was freezing up there (there was still snow on the ground and I was in a knee length skirt), and we sort of shuffled around trying to get adjusted to all the really drunk and really high people.

I overheard that Eve was trying to get a five bag and they needed some more money to pay for it...so I chipped in $3 I had in my pocket and my pipe, which this really nice guy, one of Eve's friends, helped me walk up to my car to get...and he let me like, hold on to him and catch myself from falling on him. If I wasn't so into Eli I would've hooked up with that dude...because he was cute.

So basically....we got three bowls out of it. But what I didn't realize, because I am a n00b stoner, was that it was chronic as apposed to regular, good ole weed (chronic is still marijuana, but it's like, a fresh nug...it's not dried out and it's really sticky is how it was explained to me). So I was really, really fucking happy-stupid high. My mood was also enhanced by getting to shot gun with Eli again.

So, I was getting smoked out by this really nice chick from SOU and Eli and Trina went and stood down by the fire again. After it was gone I went down and like...hugged Eli...and like, kept almost falling and hugging him and putting my head on his shoulder as I was hugging him. He was also drinking a beer...which somehow got handed to him (this was a separate issue all together...because, hello! it was an open container...who the fuck knows what else got put in it!), so he just sort of stood there as I affectionately "attacked" him. They were both a little worried that I wasn't okay to drive but I was fine really. I was like...my judgment wasn't really impaired, but I was really "happy". I made them check me by doing things that would normally make someone who was tweaking freak out, but I passed the test so they calmed down a little.

But then in my conscious effort to get so messed up to the point where I didn't care anymore so I could just finally "kiss" kiss him, I asked Eli if I could try just a couple sips of his beer. I think there was something else in it, because I didn't even have enough beer to measure a teaspoon, and it made me even tipsier. I was okay though...I could still maintain my somewhat good judgment. But this is when I did the stupid thing. This is when I put my hands on his face and said "I love you," and this is when I attempted ...or accomplished the task of kissing him. I'm not sure if I got his lips so much as I think I got his upper lip and the skin between that and his nose. Heh. I'm a stupid drunk slut-whore!



So yeah, after that we pretty much decided to end our night. The walk out of the camp ground was easier than the walk in since I had discovered an easier path on my way to get my pipe. Trina and Eli were both a little messed up...and Eli needed to take a breather before we left. This was when it occured to Trina that Eli's beer had been opened and we worried that maybe it had some GHB slipped in it. I then went on a tangent about how I knew the date-rape drug's name because of the last new episode of Everwood. I'm a really dumb stoner.

When we were driving back down to town one of the cars of the people we drove up with came up behind us. We kind of started worrying because they had drinking a lot more than not even a teaspoon of beer. We were really scared because they were driving really fast and kept coming pretty close...and I put my hazards on to tell them to back the fuck off....but I also just was glad that I found a bus turnaround to pull over in so they would not be behind us any more. It was freaky.

The rest of the drive we kept bickering about how far down we were, and then we eventaully had to drive Eli home. I was really worried he would be in trouble because we were still worried that the beer had GHB in it, which makes him really ill, and that his dad would get mad at him for getting home so late. We couldn't even think about what my mom's reaction would be yet. Trina was staying the night with me and so when we got to my house we just got ready for bed and were quite like little mice. I got my first hella bad attack of the munchies (because before I'd never really gotten them), so I got a big bowl of cereal and around an hour after we got home (which was around 3) we both fell asleep.

um....I think I'll explain the rest of the weekend tomorrow. Becayse yes, I started this entry at 3:30 on Monday afternoon and had to leave it for a while...and now it's after 3:30 in the morning.

oy vey.
