Horn Rimmed Glasses
Because it's overdo. Because I finally got a cord so I can clean out my camera. And because I'm waiting for hulu to load.
I've been feeling weird today. I went and cleaned off the trampoline. Maybe I can convince dad to give me more time to use it before he decides to take it down... for grass....I thought I may as well jump a bit. All I did was some back handsprings and tucks. That's all. And very suddenly I got very dizzy. light headed. And sleepy. Strangely sleepy. I know that sounds weird. But it kinda stuck with me for the rest of the day. Doesn't help that something was making my innards hurt. Like cry-it-hurt-so-bad kinda hurt. But all thats better now.
We had a party for Erica today. She's flying south for the winter college. We miss her already.
I think this is mostly a picture post. I think I have something to say. But so much that nothing can get out. If that makes any sense. I'm just... feeling strange, you know? Not really depressed. But not happy either. Just pensive I think.
I kept thinking that there was something amazing I wanted to tell Mel tonight. Something truly awesome but everytime I could figure out what it was, it turns out to be these stories I've been imagining. Like she'd want to hear about that. Like anyone would want to know what worlds my mind is in 90% of the time. They're truly something else. But I doubt anyone else would be as enthusiastic about it.
To the pictures!
First off: My birthday.
It was small but enjoyable. I think I had more fun with this group than I would have with a larger group. Not only that, but we got to go to Famous Daves because we were a smaller group.
Next up: Rainbow
It had been so long since I had seen a rainbow. And you can't tell in this picture, but it's a full one. Goes from end to end. That's me. Excited by rainbows. You should see me with overpasses.
Coming up: Reunion!
Our Condo house. WE were bottom level, all of the right half plus another 2 quarters on the upper levels.
Pretty sunset was pretty.
It's a keeper.
Finally: Erica's party.
Jacob doing a ninja kick on the pinata. Not to Self: Don't pick a fight with Jacob.
They played Twister.
They spectated.
We made this mad game. There were the classic red plastic beverage cups and a pool table with balls. The object was to get more balls into the oponents pockets than what got in yours, using the cups instead of hands. Playing with all pockets covered, this got pretty crazy. Really fun. It started out when I noticed if you covered the ball with a cup, it looked kinda haunted, as in it still moved. Then that turned into crashing the cups and trying to keep them from your side of the table to the somewhat air hockey match shown here. Then we bowled with the cups and... yeah. Good times.
I think we degenerated into 5th graders tonight. We played spin the bottle, kiss on the cheek version. Then truth or dare. The only thing missing from tonight were bonbon lipgloss and prank calling. I did take note to Jacob not kissing me when it was his turn. Very interesting. One of two things, obviously, not really sure at all as to which. I mean he treats me well enough. Like any good friend would. I'm not getting any I-Don't-Like-You vibes. And I'm not getting any I-Love-You vibes either. Of course I could be not picking them up, ignoring them or imagining them not being there.
Colin was there. I still remember calling him out online, totally peeved about the way he acted. But he was immature and I like to entertain the thought that he feels bad about treating one of his good friends that way. Therefore, it wasn't awkward. I did learn that his 2 year girlfriend dumped him. And why? Because she'd been crushing on this one guy for 3 years, he professed his love last day of school, they made out, and she basically said "I'm gonna go be his girlfriend for a while, but you hang tight there while I make love to someone else because I shouldn't be too long." She's totally using the poor kid. What a slut. And the only reason I feel this matters to me is because no matter what happened between us, Colin is still my friend. And once my best friend. I don't like it when other girls use him like a hand towel. Dry and discard. I mean they had promise rings. They were serious. And Colin loves her. Still. Idiot.
Anyway, Happy fourth.
