After the storms
I would have been on sooner tonight, but we had a big thunderstorm go through hear a couple hours ago. Thunder was cracking pretty loud and the rain came down hard for a while. I have some little fans in the windows up here and the water was coming through them. Not much, but enough to notice it. It would have made a bigger mess if we tried to take the fans out because they were a pain in the ass to get them into the windows in the first place. Glad the storm waited until I made it home before it started.
This morning I left kind of early and went to the mall. I ended up buying a shirt with some skulls on it and some magazines on writing and art. Even picked up one on Cottage Living. Not sure exactly why I got the last one, but its got some good stuff in it. I saw one the other day that had some small one room cottage looking things that were used as studios, or garden sheds, or whatever. One of the I saw online was a little 6' X 7' thing modeled after an old gypsy wagon.
I'm getting set to go set at my drawing table for a while. I am thinking I should start a new self portrait, before or after I work on the three projects that are on the table now. Something to maybe show the continueing battle between my light and dark sides. Maybe. When I get something good done..........okay let me rephrase that. When I get something done, no matter how it looks, I may post it on here for all to see. Maybe post some photos as well.

Is it over yet?
Monday night. Yippee. Today was a long, hot day. I didn't even get time to make payments on the bills I wanted to get too today. Oh well, guess I can do it tomorrow, if i feel like going out in the heat.
Work went a little quicker than I thought it would. I was hoping that when the one gal come in she would have nothing to say, but I was wrong. Its amazing how someone's voice could almost reach the pitch of an air raid siren when talking normally. When machines are running, the press and everything else, it does not seem possible that above all the only thing that can be is this one stating that she has to go to the bathroom and can't hold it any more. And she doesn't even have to speak up. Scary.
I got home and had some dinner and decided i would attempt to lay down for just a few minutes. I woke up four hours later. Good thing there wasn't anything on tonight that I really wanted to watch or I would have missed it.

Almost stayed away
I had the thought of not getting back online tonight. I knew I wouldn't have any email anyway, except for junk. But I needed to kill some time between the end of the boring nascar race and the start of the Simpsons. So, here i am.
Not doing anything the rest of the net but watching the cartoons and drag racing. Drag racing has seemed to be more exciting to me this year than nascar racing. At least I have only fallen asleep once during drag racing this season when I was really really tired. I have fallen asleep through most of 7 or 8 of the nascar races this year.

Late night saturday
After a very hot and boring day, which i slept through some of, I crashed in front of the tv for a while. Turned on the cartoon network for a while and then flipped around different to finally settle on the comedy channel. They were running the first Blue collar comedy tour movie again. They ran the second one late last month or so. Might just have to get those two for my collection.
Not sure exactly how hot it got today, but i'm still sweating setting here. And its almost midnight. Some time I will have to crawl into bed. Last night after I got off of here around 12:30 I sat in my recliner doing some tv crossword puzzles for a while. Then ended up falling asleep in the chair until around 2:00. After I finally made my way to the bed i managed to sleep until around 6:30 this mornng.
I really should be drawing something right now. But I haven't even thought of picking up my pencils at all so far this weekend. I thought I had a couple of new ideas, but they didn't really sound too interesting so I have already forgotten what they were.

Another friday shot to hell
I didn't have to be to work today until 12:00, but still for some unknown reason was out of bed before 6:30 this morning. I didn't go to bed until almost 1:30 and was up at least three times last night. So, I didn't really get much sleep at all last night.
Today was another really hot day, my clothes were pretty much sticking to me by the time I left work to come home. Its not even supposed to get below 70 over night tonight. Yippee. Another night i'll sleep with no covers on the bed and still probably end up sweating too much.
Work, as usual, sucked. The usual bullshit and politics going on. Lies, lies, and more stories going on than ever before. Its like a little soap opera all its own, with a cast of morons to boot.
My best friend keeps asking me if I have thought about being in her wedding. I told her today that I haven't thought about it and might give it some thought maybe 10 minutes before it begins. Whenever that may be. She gave me a little stuffed teddy bear and some kind of stuffed pokemon thing her 6 year old wanted me to have, with the instruction from him that i must put them on the shelf with my Scooby Doo stuff. As I did with the Toucan sam pencil sharpenr, the dalmation christmas ornament from him. And the bigger stuffed teddy bear and turtle I got from two of his sisters three or four years ago. And can't forget the valentine pig I got form all five of them last year. The shelves wear I keep my Scooby collection is overflowing and I will sometime have to make some space because he wants to give me his mystery Machine van, once he finds all of the parts for it.
Got through the day there and came home to fall asleep for about an hour, give or take. Woke up and turned on the tv. The truck race was kind of boring tonight.
Even made it through the day without the one bitch reminding me it was her birthday, as she has tried to do for the last two weeks. She didn't even try and smile at me, as she usually does. Maybe my ignoring her all day yesterday kind of gave her the hint that I never liked her in the first place. She isn't even good for a laugh any more, just another nuisance that thinks she is something special.
Well, I really should consider going to bed. Not that I will sleep too good I am sure. The fan doesn't even seem to be helping at the moment.

People
Is it a bad thing to hate people in general? I don't think so. In some ways it makes it easier to get through the day, having to deal with less people that way. In some ways its easier to not like someone than to bother trying to see how much one should open up to another person before finding out that said person was the wrong one to open up too. Does that make any sense at all?
Out of most of the people i know here, I can think of only a half a dozen that I would call a friend. Most of my friends are people I have met online and have not yet seen face to face. And in some cases have not even seen a picture of. But have been able to say more to someone I will probably never meet than to most people I see day after annoying day.
I have been told by some I have the "good life". All I do is work, sleep, watch tv, and check my email. Some days i'm online two or three times. I don't have anyone to really spend time with. So "special someone" to want to do things with and for. And have at times not really thought much about that. Do I feel lonely? I don't know. Can being lonely be mistaken for being bored? Since i seem to be bored no matter what I do any more.
I know nothing. I have never claimed to have , or even wanted, to know anything. I have rarely even claimed to be human. But thats a story for another day, right?
Being mean
Once again, or maybe it was twice, I was called mean again today. And I don't remember why. And I bugged a guy too. That was fun. But sometimes he deserves what he gets. And i'm surprised he didn't whip out his bible and drop to his knees when I showed him the book I bought.
The guy reads books all the time, just about every break we get at work he has his face stuck in a book. But only "good" books. He tends to end up on his knees a lot too, although praying doesn't help when you have no life like him I guess. He always asks stupid questions, and has a comment for just about everything. And his favorite word is "whatever".For as much as he thinks he knows, there is a lot about people he doesn't know.
So, being the mean, nasty, cruel, and rude guy that most people seeme to think I am I decided mess with his head a little bit. I left my kind, and gentle, side home today. I found a copy of the Necronomicon at the bookstore and it was pretty cheap, so I picked up a copy and took it back to work and asked him if he wanted to read it. Of course, the first word out of his mouth was "whatever" and then said he didn't think he'd like it. Some of us got a good laugh out of it.
Then one of the gals said I was mean too. But I don't remember what it was i said to her. Or about her. Oh well. Probably nothing really important anyway.

Feeling not so good
I don't know what I did, excpet turn a little bit in my chair monday night, but I have been really sore ever since then. I know my gut is still screwed up from everything that happened a couple months ago, but I didn't think turning a little sideways would cause so much pain. At times I have had to set and lean forward to put my hands by my feet in order to feel comfortable. But still not the best of positions to be setting in.
Today sucked, as most days do. One of the guys at work was taking pictures of everybody, if they would let him, and I wasn't sure I wanted my picture taken. But in the end I let him take my pic only because my best friend was right there beside me. She got her hair cut shorter last week and i was hoping to get a pic of it, and i forgot to take my camera today, so at least this way i'll still get what I want, as long as his pictures turn out okay.
I sat and wrote three pages in my private journal last night. Four if I count the page of lists that I made. Nothing really important, just a couple lines on each subject, but didn't think I had enough to cover that many pages.
I probably should go to bed early and try to get some rest and hope my gut calms down. It already has a little bit from what it was even this afternoon. But if I go to bed now I know i'll be up 2 or 3 times before i have to get up at 6:00 to get ready to go to hell. I was lucky to get 4 hours sleep last night.

Monday..............yippee
Today started out on a really good note.......ha ha. Last night i didn't sleep good at all, so I was awake way too early this morning. I managed to set at my drawing table for 5 minutes before I left for work. Luckily today is usually the shortest day of the week. The only good thing about monday in hell.
It was payday today. Not that thats means anything at all. But it was the biggest check I have gotten in the last 3 to 4 months, since i missed so much time. All I can say was at least the little bald guy didn't say much at all today, at least not around me anyway. The only good thing about today was I got to pick on a couple of the gals a little bit. Thats always fun......well......usually.
Probably not doing anything but crashing in the chair tonight. I'm tired and need some rest. Too bad there isn't anything on to watch tonight. I wish somebody would take me to see the new Batman movie, but that won't happen either. I'll see it someday, even if I have to wait for the dvd.
I should set at my table on play around with some cartoony type stuff. But I don't have much inspiration at the moment. I have a friend that sent me a few pictures of her last year and I looked at them last night, but couldn't really come up with any new ideas. I had a couple of people tell me, months ago, they would send me some pics to play with, but I haven't seen any yet.

A few words........
And not much more to say than that at the moment. Went to town and got some groceries and stuff, how exciting that was. Now just wasting time until the Michigan race starts and drag racing later. And the only thing on tonight is a new episode of Family Guy.
I made the mistake of watching the Hammerhead movie on Sci-Fi last night. Man, did that ever suck. Good thing there was a race on I could flip over too to keep myself awake.
Father's day. Or so the calendar says. Just another day around here.
Yesterday my mother and I rearranged some stuff in the other room. Since I had the brilliat idea over a month ago that we turn that room into a combination art and craft room, neither one of us has really used it. Until this weekend we were in there a couple of times. Either it was that neither of us felt good enough to do anything, or it was way too hot up here to do anything, so not much happened in there for a while. And did I mention that the eagle I drew for the one gal at work was a big hit. Her husband liked it too.

Friday
Whoever came up with the idea of TGIF never worked at my job. Friday is the day we do the most work. Most of the rest of the week is done just to prepare for fridays. And we can get done anywhere between 4:00 and 7:00 p.m. I did manage to get away with telling the little bald guy to go set in the corner and keep his mouth shut. That lasted for maybe 2 minutes.
Thursday, June 16, 2005
Its that time.......
Yeah, time. I got a new watch today. Actually, my best friend gave me money to go get one. That was nice of her.
Today was another messed up day that I wish I hadn't gotten out of bed. That little bald guy was having such an attitude today and yelling because we didn't have everything done when we thought we did, because he didn't give the one counting the bundles of inserts we were making up all of the paperwork. Then he says how his head isn't on right today. Today? Its never on right. I'm not the only one that just wanted to walk out the door today.
They have been retopping the one section of the main highway that goes through town, so its fun trying to get out to some of the big stores. One side is done, but the other side is down to one lane and nobody seems to know how to pick one steady speed to go through there without jamming on the brakes every three to four feet. Or maybe thats just when I am trying to go through there.
My friend took me and one of the other gals to lunch at a nice restaurant today. Had a fish dinner that was pretty good. There was talk of settling down and whatever. Wouldn't take much for me to settle down, I don't do anything anyway. Not that anyone will ever want to have anything to do with me anyway. So it doesn't really deserve too much thought. I was never a partier, partly because I never was invited to any parties, and never really cared if I was or not. I don't like to go out to bars and since thats about the only place to go around here I just stay here and rot.
I rented Blade Trinity tonight. That was a waste. There were moments that were okay, but I did sleep through some of it. I missed some of the final fight, so I guess it couldn't have been that interesting. I didn't bother going back to try watching it again.
Hmmmm.........guess thats about all i can think of to say tonight. So, I guess I will end this rant now. Was this the censored verion of my words, or the uncensored version? I don't remember, but i guess it doesn't make much difference anyway.

Another day in hell
As I sit here typing this i listen to the rain hitting the roof, as it has for the last four hours. At least, so far, there has been no thunder with it. But that doesn't mean there won't be. But it was actually a cool day today. I wore my shorts again today, so it just had to cool down.
Today was one of those days that I wonder why I even bothered to get out of bed. Work was a pain in the ass. And the bald guy was being more of a nuisance than usual. Besides being his normal impatitent and annoying self. I thought, once again, how I wished I could afford to just walk out the door during one of his boring same old same old rants and never look back. I've gotten to the point where I try to think of that as just a big fantasy, like a live action role playing game, that I can forget exists when I am not there. Some days that is easy to do, but other days.....................
I began the day on a good note, I made it out of bed. And after losing track of time listening to some old AC/DC I finally finished getting ready for work. Or hell, as the case may be. I was in such a rush to get out of here this morning I forgot to put in my necklace. My horrorscope says this week that I should decide what is more important, work or home life. Well, I can say most definitely that work is definitely not important, at least not the crap I do now. The only real good point of the day was joking around with my best friend, except she wasn't feeling too good.
I didn't really do much today, but after dinner i was so tired and fell on the bed and slept for over an hour. Then I got up and turned on the tv for a while, but didn't really pay that much attention to it. After I get off of here I will probably set and write in my journal and then crawl into bed and hope i sleep tonight. I think I managed to sleep maybe 4 hoursa lat night. Which in the last few months may be a record.
All I seem to do any more is work, sleep, eat, and watch TV. A friend of mine told me that that must be great. I don't know. Thats probably why I am bored all the time. I haven't really drawn much in a long time, except for a bit here and there, and I think I forgot what fun was a long time ago. Last week I had a dream, and in the dream I smiled. I haven't smiled in a long time. That I can remember.

A good writer?
I got an email tonight from a gal that says she checked out my blog and that I am a good writer. I don't know about that. I suppose maybe I could be, depending on the mood i'm in at the time. But should I believe her? She is a little nuts, but then again aren't we all? She does like me after all. At least i guess she does. She may not if she knew i was talking about her being weird. And if she reads that line then yes I am talking about you........and there isn't a thing you can do about it. hehe. Please don't have your daughter beat me up.......she may do that since I forgot to send her a b-day card this year....oops. Oh well, in my defense I was not thinking of anyone at the time, munchkin or otherwise, except for maybe certain ones that should have their heads shoved through a brick wall.
A couple more storms this afternoon. One just after 2:00, which lasted maybe five minutes. And then another one just after 2:30 which was even shorter. But it did rain pretty hard for a minute or two each time. It was like storm....sunshine....storm.....sunshine.....then cloudy the rest of the night. It may storm again later I don't know.
Not much on the agenda tonight. Going to watch a stupid movie on the sci-fi channel at 9:00. They are supposed to talk about the new Batman movie during this one so that is the main reason I am watching it again. That and the fact that it is about the only thing on. Except for Overhaulin. Too bad they wouldn't overhaul my truck..............

No longer alone
After coming off the quietest weekend I have had in years, not sure how that worked out that way but it was good, I was looking forward to one last night of being alone. Not happening. The parents came back a day early and were backing into the yard at the same time I was.
Wor, as usual, was a nuisance. Almost got out early today, but that didn't happen either. I took the original sketch of the eagle drawing in and showed the gal what it looked like, so she could get an idea of what the final piece ended up being. She was happy with it, so I will take the finished sketch in when I go in again on wednesday.
Shaggy
Really don't want to work today
I woke up way too early this morning.......again. Its been raining and is supposed to continue to do so, with maybe some more thunder later. I really don't feel like going to work and dealing with all those people. A couple of them are all right, but most of the ones that work today might as well be brain dead. If they are not already. I don't know where the little bald guy finds all these idiots, but it seems thats about the only knid he can get to work there any more. He thinks they are good workers, which might be true, being that the job is so easy to do. some of these people could have their heads shoved through a brick wall and it wouldn't do a thing to them.
On a lighter note, I have been having a good laugh lately. I've been thinking about my best friend talking about me being in her wedding, whenever that may or may not happen, and having to wear a tux. Me in a tux? Thats funny. Almost as funny as I would look wearing a penguin suit. I think its hilarious.

Another sunday morning
So far this weekend has been pretty good. I haven't even stepped one foot outside the house. And don't plan too the rest of today either. So far this morning I managed to read a couple chapters in my book and finished the shading on the eagle drawing I was working on. It actually came out better than I thought it would.
I don't know if I will watch the nascar race or not. I usually sleep through the races at Pocono. And Drag racing is on at 3:00, so I will definitely be watching that. And got to watch the new Family guy tonight.

An actually quiet day
I managed to sleep until about 8:00 this morning. Lately i've been awake by 5:00, so this was a good way to start the weekend. I worked on a different idea I had for the drawing of the eagle, all she asked for was an eagle she didn't say what it had to look like or anything.
I was watching Army of Darkness again on the Sci-Fi channel this afternoon when the dish lost the sattelite signal. Oh Joy. I sat in my chair for a few minutes and then, for the third or fourth time this week, it started to storm. I fell asleep in my chair for about two hours and woke up just in time make myself some dinner.
Surprisingly, I did not here much noise at all from outside. I didn't even bother to look out there much, and when I did everything seemed to be really quiet. I thought i heard some kids going down the street once, but that was about all. No barking dogs. No lawnmowers. No traffic going by. It hasn't been that quiet around here in a long time.

Its too hot
Again it was in the 90's today. Somebody at work today said they heard that we've had more hot days this week than we did all last summer. Yesterday I wore shorts. I usually wear them maybe once or twice a year, and last year I don't remember digging them out of the drawer.
This weekend I am doing absolutely nothing. Just going to enjoy the empty house and all the quiet that goes with it. Quiet but for the yelling neighbors, screaming kids, and barking dogs that is. But I can always turn on my TV and try and ignore all that. Not that there is much on tomorrow.
I got invited to an open house for a friend at work, but i'm not going anywhere. Never was much for parties. Or crowds. My pen pals always tell me that I should go out more and maybe look for that "someone special" but I think not. I usually say something like "What? Go out there? But, there are people out there."

More storms
Another storm rolled through a few minutes ago, only lasted a few minutes. Lots of thunder, but no rain. Not staying on long, just wanted to check my email before it decides to build up again, but hotmail is being a nuisance so that idea is out.
Today was another long day. Even the topics of conversation at lunch held no interest for me today. And no Scooby Doo comic at the hobby shop this week either. I did pick up an Alice Cooper cd tonight that has some of the old songs on it like, School's out and Welcome to my nightmare.
I should be drawing something, but it got to be 90 degrees again today, so its almost too hot to set up here again. One of the gals at work asked me to draw her something with an eagle for her husband for father's day. I'm thinking an eagle head with a couple of skulls, but not sure about it yet. Have to sketch some out and see if I like it or not.

I went shopping
This morning started with another early morning 4 hour long thunderstorm. Luckily it stopped before I left for work. Work, as usual, sucked. Except for the part where I joked and talked with my best friend.
After work I came home and had some dinner and then allowed myself to go shopping. I haven't done that in a while, with being sick, not working for about 2 months, and all the bills piling up. But, I went. I bought a good t-shirt that says "I know how you feel I just don't care." And I broke down and bought some of those sectioned frying pans, to help go along with the idea of learning to cook. They cost me &7.99 for two pans. Somebody told me that if I had my own pans it would inspire me to use them. Now I have to go and get some utensils for them because I didn't think about that when I got the pans, and my brother told me I would need some different ones because they have a set of those pans and a regular spatula won't fit in the sections.
My brother called to ask if I knew what time my parents left the house. They were going to massachusettes where that brother lives, and then on to New Jersey to see my other brother. I am not sure what time they left. I woke up at 3:30 this morning, partly because of the storm and partly because of a stomach ache, and they were gone. My mother wanted to know what I was going to do to my room while they were gone. The year before last I rearranged both upstairs rooms. And last year I painted half this room red, and the other half white. I told her I can't afford to do anything to it this year, or I might put in some track lighting or something.

Hugs and thunder storms
This morning started out okay, it was supposed to get up to 90 and was 86 by noon. I had printed out the pics of my friend that I took yesterday in her peasant dress and took them down to her this afternoon. Its a good thing I went down when I did because they had everything just about packed up. They wanted to be out of there before the weather turned bad because they were calling for severe weather this afternoon.
She really loved the pics and said she was going to get them framed. She gave me another hug and squeezed so hard I couldn't move, except to almost fall over backwards. We talked for about 10 minutes and I got three more hugs before I left. I told her how I broke out of my dark mood after seeing her yesterday and thanked her for all the hugs and the pics of her smiling face and looking so cute and she said she was glad i was feeling better because of being such a good friend. I even gave her a kiss on the cheek, but I had permission. Plus said I could take her one pic and print an 8X10 and hang it by my drawing table for inspiration. Told her I would probably draw a portrait from the one pic, plus write her a little poem.
It started storming after 3:00 and ended about 8:30 or so. I saw on the tv that there were places where big trees were down and one place where a tree fell over and knocked down a power line and started a house fire. It got pretty windy around here and the lights flickered a few times, but the power stayed on. There may be more storms coming through sometime, I think they said that there may be one come through about 4:00 a.m. as well.
My left leg is still pretty stiff today. And my gut is feeling as bad as it did on friday. But, other than that, it hasn't been too bad of a day.

Good thoughts and monkey cheeks
Still feeling pretty good tonight, except for the parts that got sunburned. And my left knee is stiff and sore from all the walking I did today. I haven't walked that much in a long time.
Thinking about a friend I saw, who told me once that a guy we both know gave her the name of monkey cheeks years ago, for whatever reason. She really hates it when I call her that. And I haven't called her that in a long time. I was tempted to do it today, just to bug her, but she probably would have decked me.
I sat and wrote almost a page and a half in my journal a few minutes ago, and got out some thoughts that have been bugging me for a while. I haven't written much in there for days. And I haven't felt this good in about a month or so.

Sunburned again
I left this morning to go check out a flea market and to see a friend that was going to be in the festival parade and I got sunburned again. Someday it may darken to a tan, but no matter what I always seem to burn. I looked at a lot of nice knives and swords, but didn't buy anyting. I wasn't really interested in the parade, I sat on a friend's porch and so half of what was in it because they line up some of the stuff by her place. This year they stuck all the poloticians on her block. Nothing of interest there.
My friend Heidi is part of a medievil reenactment group and thats who I went to see. Last year she was not there for reasons of her own. So it was cool to see her in her peasant dress again. She told me she got promoted to queen, but her dress won't be ready for a while, so she had to do the peasant thing again. They do their own festival in August and I plan on going down there to see her again in her queen outfit.
Getting out today was a good thing. Especially seeing my friend and getting at least three big hugs from her. It helped to break me out of my mood and feel somewhat good again. Except for the sunburn.

No good Friday
I have felt like crap all day. And I have a bad headache on top of that. I have been in such a down mood the last couple of weeks and today was made worse by how poor i felt. I even snapped at my best friend at one time. We talked a few minutes today and its always good to talk to her because if I say something really stupid, like I did today about how i was feeling, she threatens to kick my ass if I don't stop thinking negative thoughts. She always seems to understand me even on days when I don't even know whats going through my head. Which is a cool thing, but also sometime scary as there are times when she seems to know what I am thinking even before I open my mouth.

What is sleep?
Its been a long time since I have been able to sleep good. Its almost 1:00 a.m. now and i'm still setting here. The last few months it seems that if I don't stay up this late I won't get any sleep. The other night i have went to bed around this time and slept until around 6:30 or 7:00. Last night i was tired so I went to bed about 11:30 and woke up at 3:30. I fell back asleep for a few minutes, but woke up about 4:30 and was awake from that point on. I think my internal clock is getting as screwed up as the rest of my insides.

Another fun day in hell
Well, today seemed to go by faster than I thought it would, even though there were still a lot of problems. But thats normal. The day would have ended earlier than normal, except they kept finding stuff for us to do so we only got out 15 minutes early istead of the hour and a half early we thought it would be.
They are retopping the the main highway that goes through the town where i work so going shopping like I did before work this morning was a trip. They had one lane open on the one side and it took about 15 minutes to roll about a mile and a half between stores. Once I got past that it was all right. I wonder if they will get more of it done by this weekend as they are having their annual festival thing this weekend. I usually go down and check out the flea market they have and sometimes pick up a new sword or knife for my collection. If they have anything good and don't want way too much for them.

Is this day done yet?
Some days I wish the time would fly by and they would end quickly. This was one of those days, as are most days when I am working. Especially when the boss screws up on things and doesn't notice until we are already doing what he asked us to do. And some days he acts like a little kid if something doesn't go the way he says it should, even if his way is a pain in the ass. Some days he acts like we work for some big city newspaper, instead of some worthless little rag that isn't good for much of anything.
I've been there 6 years now. Which is six years too many. I wasn't really wanting to be there that long, but its easy work, only part time, and if one can get past that annoying little troll it isn't too bad. And its about the only job around here i can do, because I can't do factory work with my bad gut. There have been many times when I just wanted to drop whatever I was doing at the time and walk out and never go back. Oh how I wish I could afford to do that.
I did have a good day in the way that I got to pick on my best friend some. I gave her the thing I wrote for her this weekend and she was really surprised that I had written 15 pages. Some days I just don't know where I would be without my best friend. Then other days she can be such a pain in the ass too. But i'm aloud to say such things about her, because according to her I don't say it in a mean way.
