Howdy-do update window.
I'm updating alot tonight to make up for lost time.
So, a long, long time ago... like eight years ago maybe... I talked to this kid on the internet practically every day for a few years. One day he decided he didn't want to talk to me anymore, and he told me so. I said okay, and didn't sweat it. One evening, probably almost a year ago, I went to the BLD with Dustin for a small get-together for someone's birthday. This kid was there and said, "Are you Bridget? I talked to you online like seven years ago." I thought it was weird, and ignored him the rest of the night. The fact that someone you talked to seven years ago, online, who lived at least three states away, ended up at the same place as you, at the same time as you, in your hometown, is very, very odd. When I got home I wrote him an e-mail saying something like, "Good seeing you." and he never replied. Yesterday I found him on Myspace and wrote him a message asking why he stopped talking to me, but more importantly why he would even care to cut off contact with someone he talked to online. He never responded, though he did read the message. I am absolutely perplexed by the situation, or lack thereof. I don't necessarily care about him, or our childhood friendship, I am just baffled at why this situation even exists.
Just thought I'd mention that.
I never wrote about the party we had. It was the last weekend Emily was going to be here, so I wanted to have a little get together for her. I invited a bunch of friends, who came over, and we all sat around talking for a little bit. Earlier I had called Wes and said, "Hey, we are having some people over, so if you wanted to invite a few of your friends over, that's cool." Later that night, some one hundred people, no joke, were in our house. It was like all those campus parties I've been to that I never knew who lived there because the party was so huge. There were people here I've never seen before. Drunk girls dancing sloppy-like, boys trying to get laid, cigarette burns everywhere, black scuff marks all over the walls, sticky floors, records spinning with the volume up to eleven. It took us two trash days to get rid of all the trash from the party. It took the rest of the weekend to clean up. It was certainly interesting, but a little nerve-racking. It's funny because I told Wes he could have a few people over, yet it turned into a huge house party, and it was supposed to be for Emily, but it turned into a party with no foundation, and it all happened in under two hours. It was crazy.
I had to take off next weekend from work because I haven't had any time to even unpack yet, and I barely have time to do my homework. Dustin and I are going to Ikea again on Tuesday, and hopefully this time I don't loose my debit card. I only need a few things, and it costs way too much to ship it. I needed new work pants, so I went to Old Navy yesterday. Yesterday I also bought a Lemon Lime Gatorade and after purchasing it, I saw two people in a row drinking the same exact thing - right down to the flavor and size. I thought it was really weird. Anyways, I never knew Old Navy had such sweet deals. I got two silk shirts that were about 6 dollars a piece. I went to Micro Center today and got some CD-Rs and a label making kit for CDs. I've never made a label for a CD, so I'm pretty excited.
My doctor is the coolest person ever. It's no wonder my medical file there is bigger than the bible. I told him Dustin got me sick, and that he didn't have insurance, so he gave me a refill on my antibiotics and gave me a ten day sample package. How nice! D and I are on our way to a speedy recovery!
Tonight I've been thinking of things I miss. Besides the obvious, the list goes as follows:
1. Outland. I wish it would just re-open already.
2. Audiogalaxy. It was the best thing that ever happened to the internet. Period.
3. Actually enjoying being at Steak'n'Shake. Now it's painful to be there for over a minute. Maybe a minute and a half.
4. Enjoying driving. Now driving is just a pain in my ass.
5. When I never waited for anything to be over. Now it seems that with everything I am just waiting, impatiently, for it to be over.
Of course, there is a ton of other things I miss, but I thought a good list of five would be sufficient. Really, I've only been thinking about Outland and Audiogalaxy, I don't know why.
Time to go holla at my boy.
