third eye blind - losing a whole year

so today, school was pretty lame, highlight being anatomy with franny and donovan. franny took her tigger and made it bondage tigger! with millions of safety pins in his ears and along his mouth, oh man, i never believed a stuffed animal could look sexy before. studded bracelets and everything.
donovan drove me home, first thing i did was call up tuey 'cause i was bored. after a while (4:00, 4:15 i think?) she came by and we stood around for a little bit before we took off to wendy's. got some food stuffs and she filled out an application. that would be so awesome if she worked at wendy's! can you imagine? food, cheaper than the dollar menue! anyway, we drove around in her car for a while, not sure what to do. her rx7 is soooo nice! we were just cruising down the road listening to the slc punk soundtrack, windows down and just enjoying the ride... it was great, absolutely gorgeous, and i just know we're going to be doing that a lot more this winter. screw it if we're cold. there's nothing like fresh air flowing through the car. my buick won't be the same as her little red beater, but we'll manage.
a little bit later we decided to go hunt down jeff's apartment. it's been bugging me lately, that i can't see it. hell, it's an apartment, not like i've never seen one before! what, he thinks i'm going to dump him 'cause his apartment smells like cat litter? but yeah, we drove around in campus grove for a while, trying to find it, no luck. we did see a mexican family, though! the parents in the front, with the grandpa in the middle, and all the kids piled in the back. it was hilarious! so yeah we had lots of fun, even though we were having no luck, just cruising to the music. we tried the information center but that was no help, tried jeff but his cell was off, called his house and he was sleeping. as soon as i hung up steph was like, "hey, hellooo, his sister hates him right? ask her, she'll tell you 'cause it'll piss him off!" so we called back and she gave me the apartment number and we got kinda lost again... and then when we finally found it we were like, shit, we already saw this! 'cause it stands out, with all the colorful stuff and the satellite dish and everything. but yeah. neither of us noticed jeff standing on the other side of the road, by steph, until he shouted or something and scared the shit out of both of us. we were both like, "did you see him? nooo, did you?" but yeah. he wasn't too happy. his sister woke up him and told him, warning, chelsea's gonna show up in about 10 seconds. so, that kind of ruined it a little bit, but it was still fun (for me!) we tried getting into the apartment, saw just a little bit of it, but no luck, he picked me up and took me out... it was really frustrating. but it was still kinda cool 'cause i did get to see him, and it's been a couple days. so i guess it was worth it, though i doubt he thinks so.
so now i'm listening to third eye blind and i was doing homework, i'll get back to that 'soon as i finish with this. my dad got another computer... so now we have 5 computers, and only 3 people to use them. crazy shit.
oh, and yesterday! around 4, 4:30, brandon came and picked me up and we drove around trying to find a liquor store, but hello, sunday, no liquor stores are open! so terry bought us a case of smirnoff and we went back to brandon's, tuey met us there, and we went back into the woods to drink. i drank maybe 2 and a half bottles... pretty sad... and then i started feeling full, almost sick, and remembering what happened last time, i stopped. besides, it was starting to taste pretty nasty. so yeah, tommy came and he wasn't drinking, but i was having this argument with him about the right way to say flummoxed. it was weird, actually, that when i got a little buzzed, i got smarter. but it was funny too. so me, tuey, and brandon were all sitting in her car looking at it when alex called, and he was right behind us... so off i went to the concert!
i was completely sober by the time we got to seattle, and the concert was amazing! pistol grip was absolutely gorgeous, reminded me of the briggs although not as good, i'm dying to see the briggs up here... but yeah, asg sucked ass, really boring and they all looked like triplets, no shirts, long greasy blonde hair and hats. i was like, hello, three hicks think they can be in a band? no. but yeah. guttermouth! eeeee! (doing the little hand thing) those guys kicked serious ass! i was scared shitless of the moshpit, people were going nuts down there, it was murder! and the leader singer was amazing! just the way he connected with the crowd, leaning over so the crowd was holding him up while he sang. pulled people out of crowd surfing and onto the stage so they could sing with him. it's really hard to describe the atmosphere, but i was grinning like the cheshire cat the whole time, just wishing that tuey and jeff could've been there. they would've loved it! tuey because, well, she understands. she just knows, about everything. and jeff, because he'd appreciate the energy in the place, the craziness and the adrenaline rush. and 'cause i missed him, but yeah.
got me the pistol grip cd! loving it to death. also got lots of free stickers! um, so yes, that was it, got home around 11 and just, happy happy days.
