Ice Skating, and Other Such Fun!
It's a three-day weekend! That's pretty cool. On Friday, I went to the John Brooks after school with Kenneth and got soda, but we usually do that. Last night, I went over to Travis' house and slept over there! We went ice skating, which, although I was terrible at it, was a lot of fun. Plus, they played "One Week" over the intercom on the rink. We also played lots of video games, and at about 11:30 P.M., we left to go to the Wal-Mart, which was a long way away, and it took us about two hours to get there, plus the two hours coming back. At the Wal-Mart, we bought soda, Pringles, and Double-Stuf Oreos, which is all well and good, but what I really enjoyed was walking there and back. Travis and I both had one of his earphones, and we listened to Beck for most of the way there, and we talked about a lot of things, including school and sex and Travis' past experiences with marijuana (he quit about 5 months ago, which is very good). And I dunno, but something about walking back, carrying our soda and snacks, listening to Beck, the moon shining, and seeing our shadows in front of us, just seemed really... spiritual. Something like that.
Anyway, we had lots of fun. Plus, here's a conversation that occurred in my Creative Writing class on Monday:
MR. CALLISON: Does anyone know what Sigmund Freud said the motivation for 90% of human behavior is?
SOME KID: Lions?
MR. CALLISON: ...What?
SOME KID: Didn't you say Siegfried and Roy?
