*slaps self on wrist*
i know, i know, i haven't updated in forever. all that you poor little duckies have had to sustain you for the past couple of weeks is my really really bad poem to alyssa. so, i shall grant all of your wishes come true and update! you know you love me for this and that you're just a wee bit excited, though you hate to admit it.
life has been pretty good to me. i have my license and a car, i'm going to prom with a senior friend (ooh! i get to play dress up!), i met a new boy, went to myrtle beach, made out with an old friend.. et cetera et cetera.
right now, i'm on spring break. i was at my dad's the first weekend of it, but i still got to go hang out with chip, which was cool. he lives about a mile away from my dad's, so, i mean, daddy dearest could have but so many objections. dad was like, "oh, just take my car, have fun!" then beth comes home and is like, "jim!! what are you thinking? you don't know these people, you need to go check them out. what if they're members of the hare krishna--?!" chip's mom is the director of the midlothian ymca, i think she's pretty good as far as the not belonging to religious cults. blah. actually, i think it would sweet if they were hare krishnas. still, chip and i had fun. he tried to teach me to ride his unicycle (i swear up and down) and i just fell a lot, thus hurting my knees on his driveway.
these grass stains on my knees, they won't mean a thing
i've been in lifeguard certification class. bor-ing. luckily, the instructors and other kids are pretty cool, so it could be worse. but holy shit, the water is so cold. everyone is like, "the air isn't that bad! its in the sixties!" when i complain about having to be in an outdoor pool. yeah, but its windy and water doesn't heat up as quickly as air. so, when you're wet, the nightime temperature was 27, and there are 15 mph winds.... you get the picture. its been so cold, people's lips are turning blue. good thing we're all first aid certified, so we can treat hypothermia. jesus.
i'm getting my annual smattering of freckles across my nose. i can never decide whether i detest them or think that they are cute.
