well per little man's request, i will finally update this silly thing. :) god i'm so lazy. so i will start from last saturday. woke up at 6am, went to nashua and practiced. we got to go outside so that was awesome, a bunch of us got burnt, yay for being burnt in march! so we loaded up and left for everett. while we were moving stuff into the gym before our performance, i saw penny, yebba's mom. so i'm like "penny! hi! how is sean is he ok??" for those of you who don't know, sean is a great friend of mine who's in iraq for about a year. so penny looks at me and says, "Sam find me later i need to talk to you" so i immediately freak out, she said he was ok but she had to tell me more. so im all upset, then i find her before we go on, and she tells me that last week sean was in battle and that he got hurt. WHAT??? she said he only had a broken hand and cuts and bruises, but if he hadn't been in his tank hewould have died........he would have DIED. what the fuck. so i freak out again and start crying, right before we go on. so i control it for a while but then after we were done and loading the truck i just burst into tears, and i look at my cell phone and realize he had called me that morning but i missed it. so i just broke down, imagining awful thoughts and just thinking about how i may never talk to him again. i know its dramatic, but it is a possibilty, a really really scary possibility. finally, last night at midnight he called. he had called me like 3 other times and i missed each call, so i kept my phone next to my bed so i would wake up if he called. it was so good to hear his voice and know that he was ok. he said the day he was injured he was back on duty, he had no time to restor anything like that. he watched a missle go over his tank. so fucked up. i asked him what iraq was like, and he said its like on of those commercials where they ask you to adopt a child for like 20 bucks a month, just huts and ragged people all over the place, really really poor. ok, so that was awesome to hear from him. allright back to saturday, we went on to malden to do a show there. i got to see grace, which was awesome, whenever im with all my corps friends its just really nice to see one of my girls, especially since i havent seen grace in a while. yay :) so we did our thing, the concert was pretty terrible, lol, but whatever. before we went on i got to watch sacred heart and blessed sac from the side. get it sacred heart! those girls were amazing, their music cut out for the last 2 minutes of the show and they went on and did everything like nothing had happened, they were absolutely amazing. i was so proud of them. and then seeing gracie in sacs show was awesome, a lot has changed since the last time i saw it, their uniforms are wicked hot and the show concept is sweet. grace of course did amazing and i cant wait to finally see their show from the front on saturday. so blah blah then we got back to the hall and unloaded, and then we all headed to lances house for the party......here we go, the party...
so the first part of the night was fun, there was a ton of us in lances small house, and i got to see his parents which was nice. i absolutely love lances parents, and im really close with his mom. so we started drinking, i didnt really have much but i didnt care. joe and i ended up having like a wicked long emotional talk about a lot of stuff, it was pretty intense. at one point i go upstairs and poor eva has thrown up all over her pants. so i give her a pair of mine to wear. so whatever the night goes on, and finally joe and i go to bed at like 4am. i didnt see how much peopel were drinking through the night since joe and i were talking for most of it. right after i lay down curtis runs downstairs and tells me christina really needs me. so i race upstairs and see if shes ok. she just really needed to throw up, so i help her in the bathroom and try to help her puke. i didnt know at the time, but apparently curtis had been outside with her for about 2 hours. i didnt think she was that drunk, but i guess so. so while i get her my headband to wear, bethany runs into the bathroom and tells me that anne is shaking and she really needs help. so gina takes over for me with christina, and i go to anne. apparently she had drank a ton, and she had passed out at one point and was shaking. so i get her up and bring her to the kitchen sink. "where are lance and curtis" i ask. they had gone to nashua, at 5am mind you, to get ipicac. it was that bad. anne had no idea where she was and almost didnt know who i was. so i try to make her throw up, not very succedful. finally the guys get back and they give her the ipicac. it worked in 2 seconds, then she laid back down. about a half hour later she starts puking all over lori's floor. bethany is crying cuz shes scared about anne, and i dont blame her. so curtis get s abowl and stuff, and i start cleaning the house and the puke. there was no way i was letting lance or his parents clean this shit up, so i just decided to do it. the downstairs was a mess, and while i was cleaning tony threw up next to the pool table. yup, if youre counting thats #4 puker. so lance cleans that up while curtis belittles tony by making him go upstairs in only a towel since he puked on his clothes, and forces him to drink water. fat kid in a towel is funny. so i realize "hey, its about 7am, i dont think im goin to bed." i do more cleaning and then at about 8am i try to sleep, i slept on the couch and then in the computer room for a little bit, but not much. so yeah i was exhausted. that day danielle, lance, joe and i went to bickfords and laughed about it, but man at certain points it was scary. ok. moving on.....
ive had classes all week and have been stressed because i have 3 big papers to do and no time to do them. i so dont have time for drum corps, i just hate the winter season. so i talked to my doctor about the ultrsasound of my breast and she really thinks i dont need to do anything, except get it checked out again in 6 months to see for any changes. she said if i was uncomfortable i can still get a biopsie, but she was really adamant that i didnt need to have it done. so thats good. ok so i need to go to work now. this weekend i'm sleeping over lances both nights, hopefully going to both percussion finals and emass finals, then going to practice sunday. woohoo. but i get to see katie!!!! wicked fun! ok peace
