Yeah, as he spins around on...
OK, so this weekend would to an outsider seem incredibly boring. The majority of it for me was spent laying on the couch in my pajamas all the time, watching retarded movies all day. But, if you were around at all, you would have had a blast too!
Friday night Adrianne and I went to see Dashboard in Detroit with my friend Dave and his friend Beth. The concert was OK, it was a little mellow for my tastes, but we met up with Trish, Ryan, and a couple of Ryan's friends from school... some of whom I know better than others... so that was cool. When we driving into downtown Adrianne saw the sign for 8 Mile on I-75 that they show in the new Eminem video, and almost peed her pants. It was funny to be like "Wait for it... here it comes!!" Maybe you had to be there. (I think that will be the theme of this whole entry, but bear with me.)
So Saturday we went grocery shopping, or snack shopping as I like to call it. I never buy anything real, just a bunch of crap that makes nothing. Then we sat around for the rest of the night and waited for midnight so we could go to this party with Nicole (she had to work til then). So we're waiting, and waiting... And my sister and three of her friends were at a concert in Grand Rapids and they were staying at our apartment for the night, so they came right when we got to the party, so I had to go back and get them into the apartment, give them the "Here's where the thermostat is, help yourself to anything, here's where you can sleep" crap that probably embarassed the crap out of Lindsay. Then we went to the party. Of course, it was now 1 am and everyone else was already piss drunk. But never fear, it's still always fun. So I was standing there talking with Nicole's boyfriend Corey when this kid comes up and asks Corey for a cigarette. So while we're standing there we all introduce ourselves, and the kid said his name was Joey. I kept looking at him like omg, where do I know you from? Later he was walking by and I said to Nicole "He looks so familiar, it's driving me crazy!" and she goes "Well, his name is Paul, if that helps." And I was like OMG!!! It IS him!!!! It was this guy Paul that Maria and I met over 2 years ago back at home. So I ran over to him and was like "Paul!! Do you remember me from forever ago?" and he actually did! So we talked for a while, and even though he was incredibly drunk he was still cool. I was just really excited because when we met him before, I had a huge crush on him. May I even quote my real journal, dated July 30, 2000... "But so Paul - oww!! I am soo 'attracted' to him. If I was a different person, I'd be on him like flies on honey." Back then I actually cared that it wasn't right to just jump on people you find attractive. Two years later I march to the tune of a different drummer, so that's that. (Nothing bad) But the funniest thing in the world happened. There was this quasi-fight starting to break out, but no one was really paying attention. We were all standing in the driveway (mind you it was like 20 degrees out last night!) and this big skirmish suddenly breaks out on the side of the driveway, right by these wooden stake things in the ground. I hear this thud of a punch, a bunch of bottles falling over, and then everyone was gone except for this kid laying on the ground facedown. He was totally rocked!! He had been punched one time and he was out cold. Everyone thought he was dead, all these drunk people were crowding over him, like they'd know what to do. Adrianne and I were standing there laughing our asses off. Paul goes "Man, that kid must be so embarassed." and so everyone laughed, and then I said to Adrianne "I bet he'll write in to Seventeen with this story!" and she started busting up laughing, so then we were like "I was at this party, and this guy killed me with one punch.. I was so mortified.." And Adrianne goes "I bet they'd only give him three out of four stars, like 'Thank God it didn't happen to us!'" and I CRACKED up, and then I said "At least you weren't on your period!!" We were rolling on the ground as this kid was like dead. He eventually got up and was fine.
When we got home Adrianne and I stayed up til 4 or so watching BET, hoping for the new Eminem video to come on. She actually likes it, I knew it!! :) Of course the video never came on but we of course had another quasi sex chat because we like to compare stupid guys and all of that. I love asking her about all that stuff because sometimes she acts really embarassed to talk about it, and for some reason I like making people blush while they're talking about that stuff. No offense A! :) But she made this joke about a certain circus act and I seriously almost asphyxiated laughing at it. I was just about to die. That's definitely something you had to be there for and something I will not be repeating unless asked. ;)
My sister and I woke up at 8:30 today, I don't know how the hell I was awake, and we laid around and talked for like 3 hours. We crack me up because we talk about the most random shit and it's like neither of us cares what the other one is talking about, we're just waiting to tell our next story. I mean I know we do care about what the other is saying, it's just like we're always on different tracks. She likes to talk about the bands she likes and her friends at school and her hair and all of the stuff she's into, and I like to justify things and tell her stories that I know she'll disapprove of. Basically I'm the one with the mind in the gutter with everyone I talk to!!
So that's it. Today was a boring, boring day. I took a nap and then surprise! sat around and watched TV. I can't wait for this week, because it'll actually be busy. I start my sales job tomorrow all by myself, train for my waitressing job, and have to start my online class. So yay, busy week for me!!
I just noticed this is really long, so I guess I'll shut up. Hope to talk to everyone soon!!
