Wow. ok. so. I'm home. and have been for a day. ahh I've been so lazy. but. nothing I can do about that now. so. Saturday. went to a tapas place for dinner. and it was ok. the Empanada was not how I expected it to be. Ruben's are a lot better. and I'd been in the mood for some Jamaican. but it got to the point where I was just starving and didn't care but just wanted food. So after that we went to Norma's and talked to her for a while as I got my stuff ready for sleep and then my parents left, talked to Norma for a bit, she went to do some laundry and whatever else she does at night and I fell asleep. until dad called me at about 1am. and woke me up. then I fell asleep again.
woke up. was scared about waking Norma up so waited a while for a shower. then... breakfast... consisting of.. strange bran and oat and whatnot cerial and condensed milk with water.. which I put bananas into. so that I wouldn't really have to taste it.. that was quite interesting.. and. earl grey tea. which wasn't as strong as I'm used to. but. whatever. it was still good. then we watched a french movie which was called "The Sheep Has 5 Legs" I think. with Fernandel. playing 5 brothers. it was amusing. but.. by the time it was almost over I was really trying to get norma to get in the shower causeI had to go. to meet Marla and Cor. but. par usual in our family. it took forever. and we finally got out and took the subway on 77th and lex and then I got there a little under a half an hour late. grr..
but. when I got to Chevys... I saw Marla who is 18 now!!!!!! and Cor!!! It was pretty crazy. we got food and stuff and it was all very good. After lunch we had a good ammount of time before the show so we picked up the tickets and then went to the Virgin Megastore where we had an exciting trip to the erotic section getting Grant a present. hehe. and had fun looking at things then we went to the theater and I got candy. cause.. I had to. hehe. and the show began! so. the begining was a little eh and I was slightly worried. but then. I'm not quite sure where or what happened but it suddenly got really funny and good and that made me massively happy. another thing that made me really happy was how very shiny the set was. it was pretty.. the songs were interesting and lyrics were funny. such as.. "I'm sticking to you like melted cheese" and things like that.
a downfall was the fact that I realized at the begining of the show that I had forgotten my show at the Virgin Megastore. so I got the number from 411 and called right before the show began. and after being handed off to many different answering machines. I did not end up at the one I needed. so. we tried again at intermission and the first time I once again got lost in the web of answering machines. and then I got a person for a second the next time. but got sent to an answering machine again. where I think it was the correct answering machine this time. so. I left a message and figured I would go get it after the show. so. after the show we headed back to the Virgin Megastore and asked someone (while finding 2 registers that were closer to the book section than the one that we purchased Grant's present at. one being inside of the book department. we are officially blind) so. after being passed off from person to person we ended up in front of the ipod mp3 player area where we waited.. and waited... and waited for the person from lost and found to come. so. finally after we thought they had forgotten about us he came as Cor was buying something so Marla and I followed him and he asked me if there were any pictures that could identify it and I said sure. cause there were some of me and then asked if there were any that I wouldn't want him to see. and. I laughed at that. but. he went into the little back room. and we waited.. and then he emerged! with my camera! I was almost going to give him a hug because my dad would have killed me without it. so. after that. I parted with Marla and Cor outside of the Virgin Megastore.
then walked down to Penn station and got my train ticket and sat in the concourse with the multitudes of people as I waited the announcing of where the train was. and. it ended up being on track 11. where everyone kind of made a dash for it. which was very amusing. got on. got a seat. random guy sat down next to me. which was kind of nice cause no one's ever sat next to me on the train before and he didn't seem like the creepy I'm going to kill you type. just kept asking me which stop was the airport. as I guess he didn't want to miss it. so. he got off at newark. and after that. just kind of chilled until I got home.. and mom picked me up from the train station. then came home hung around for a while and was tired so went to bed.. then..things got not so good.. and I got really sick in the middle of the night. and throwing up sucks. a lot. I'll jsut leave it at that.
got to go to Johannes' in the morning and that was quite nice. felt kind of better for that time in the day then got home and felt alright for a bit but ended up taking a nap. felt wierd after that. probably cause all I had in my stomach was a bite of toast and some apple juice. mom got home and made me have some saltines and tea which were rather good. then came upstairs.. talked for a while.. and passed out.
and now. it's today! and I don't feel sick! for the most part. and that's massively good. so. I want to get out at some point.. mm.. Johannes goes to Germany in a week.. plan to see him a good amount before that hopefully.
ahh.. being summoned by maman.. so.. that's it. cause this was long.
