"hey did you get some?"
our lake trip yesterday got cancelled because of parental gayness. but, thankfully, my friends are amazing.. and planned a completely different trip in an hour. so.. we went to hurricane harbor! (me, julia, cody, ty, clay, and matt).. we pissed a lot of people off in the lazy river, doing immature junior high stuff.. which made the whole thing funnier. it was a tad bit crowded, after we rode one slide, the towers were closed for most of the day, and the wavepool tasted like salt water... but not because of salt, because of sweat. gross. other than that, it was fun.
afterwards, we went to eat at hooters and that was, uh, interesting. the "moist towelletes" they give you for the wings reminded us of condom wrappers and a man walked in on ty in the bathroom while he was trying on julia's swimsuit top. ya.. that's what we said too.
on the way home.. clay was the leader, and our car followed. we took the longest way home possible. we jammed to some dashboard (which is a given when cody and i are in control of the remote), and then we cranked up the rap. ty and cody knew all the words, which left me and julia in tears from laughter.
it's good to get away sometimes.
today, i worked at first prez's mom's day out. basically, i have a room full of 3 year olds on tuesdays and thursdays. it's not bad, i am getting paid (which is good since i need the money),and i like kids. except half of them peed in their pants during naptime. so that was quite an ordeal.
i just got my ap scores back.. huge relief. when i was praying i'd pass the english, and hoped for at least a 1 on the us history and statistics.. i got a 3 on the english and a 2 on the others. hey.. $100 is $100, and i'll take all the college credit i can get.
i'm commending myself on the decision to not go lay out.. because it is now raining. women's intuition i suppose.. or maybe just plain old luck.
at this moment, and as i have been for years, and as i will be for the rest of my life.. i'm on a dashboard kick. (everyone gasp, although it's not surprising). so here's some lyrics that have really hit home lately:
"it's hard to explain how i am getting by on so little from you..."
"do you like making out and long drives and brown eyes and guys that just don't quite fit in?.."
"well as for now i'm gonna hear the saddest songs and sit alone and wonder how you're making out.. but as for me i wish that i was anywhere, with anyone making out.."
"i hope you're as happy as you're pretending.."
"so kiss me hard cause this will be the last time that i let you. you will be back someday and this akward kiss that screams of other people's lips will be of service to keeping you away.."
"try to understand there's an old mistake that fools will make, and i'm the king of them, pushing everything that's good away.."
"man it takes a silly girl to lie about the dreams she has, but it takes a lonely one to wish that she had never dreamt at all.."
"you've got them all convinced, but i know it so well, that you could list your friends but you can't count on them.."
"i need a sure thing, and you are a mystery to me."
"don't follow your heart 'cause it just seems to get in your way.."
"when i was down, you came to me, and promised you'd always be, by my side, now you're gone, and i'm waiting patiently.."
"cause now that i can see you, i don't think you're worth a second glance."
whoa.. i just realized how many i had done. it doesn't matter though.. they're good. oh and i almost forgot.. this whole song:
"i'm starting to fashion an idea in my head where i would impress you with every single word i said. would come out insightful or brave or smooth or charming and you'd want to call me and i would be there every time you'd need me. i'd be there every time.. but for now i'll look so longingly, waiting.. for you to want me, for you to need me, for you to notice me."
