That doesn't mean that this kind of stuff doesn't still suck, though :(.

Theatre kids... She went to a party last night with them, invited me, but I worked on a paper instead. Sometimes I try to avoid them like the plague... wouldn't be surprised if they had some sort of disease, anyway. Unfortunately my conscience kicked in and I picked her up around 1am. Thank goodness my puppy likes car rides: I woke the little girl up and tossed her in the passenger seat.
