I had a blast at home this past weekend. It was an ironic sort of thing.
But first of all! allow me to marvel at the fact that I'm...
FINALLY UPDATING FROM MY OWN LAPTOP INSTEAD OF A FREAKING LAB. My internet had a virus, as Felix told me, and so when I was home my dad bought Norton Anti-Virus since it didn't come with it. I brought it back to MO and stuck it in and IT WORKED. I praised God a lot. It's a beautiful beautiful thing being in the comfort of my own room with music playing, being able to waste my days away instead of writing a lame-bottom paper. Ha. Lame-=====bottom.
My flight got into Minneapolis at 8 pm and mom picked me up and we had MY FAVORITE FOOD EVER: Scalloped Potatoes and Ham. The two best foods put into a hot, yummy dish. Remember, I had a huge thing of it at my grad. party? Yeah. that. It was weird. My parents act different-more distant, more rude to each other, but not in a fighting way. Just more open about the whole thing than trying to hide it and/or make it better.
Anyway.
I was so distraught since I wanted to spend Friday night with Erin but she slept over in her friend's dorms...the stink. So I'm sitting around home with nothing to do but here's ADDIE to save the day. I loved it-like the good ole days except in a whole new location. Amazing.
I woke up at 7am to drive to Bloomington with Mom, dad, and grandma to the World's Largest Garage Sale and it was SUPERB. erin and harris met us there and I acquired 15 cds for $2 each-brand new baby. I will list them later maybe, but it's dark since Mandy's kinda almost sleeping.
I found clothes for the first time and earings, and an inflatable electric guitar which is now hanging from the inside of my loft against a wall. And a frickin sweet mug and more crochetting yarn-a gorgeous pink.
That evening Michelle Spilde invited me to go Swing Dancing with her and some people from Bethel...well! I got all dressed up in Erin's clothes and drove to Bethel and we went to Minneapolis to go Swing Dancing. We got to the place that no one had actually been to, only heard about, and it was a super fancy restaurant. Not somewhere where you could jsut dance and not get a table and eat. So we left. Sad, huh? Oh well, none of us knew what we were doing and i signed a thing saying that I wouldn't dance publically. Kinda felt bad but it's a very legalistic rule anyway.
Sunday I went to Starbucks with Byron! amazing! Definitely the perfect ending to a great trip. I was glad to be going back though, although I couldn't quite figure it out. It was a relief...
Now I'm back in the swing of things. It's good-I'm pleased-and I made a collage of emo boys this evening. Lame, I know. they're just so good looking...but not in a lustful way, just in a respectful way. It's my wallpaper right now.
Sleep should be happenings since, even with 9 hours of sleep each night, I STILL can't wake up on time and get to class in time-even at 10 am. Bum! there's an amazing beyond amazing song that's on the new Switchfoot album. I seriously am blown away everytime I hear it or sing it or think about it.
Sunshine, won't you be my mother
Sunshine, come and help me sing
My heart is darker than these oceans
My heart is frozen underneath
We are crooked souls trying to stay up straight,
Dry eyes in the pouring rain well
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine
Too scared that I'll run always
Hold fast to the break of day light were
The shadow proves the sunshine
Oh Lord, why did you forsake me?
Oh Lord, don't be far away away
Storm clouds gathering beside me
Please Lord, don't look the other way
Yeah Yeah, shine on me
Certainly a song that you have to hear the music with to get the intense affect. Is that the right affect? Effect? It sucks cuz I still don't know.
I ate popcorn. I kinda wrote a paper. and now I will sleep. So that I can wake up for a beautiful, gorgeous, full day tomorrow.
Think about this please:
Every day is a new day.
