gin blossoms - follow you down



right up there? we've got a picture. a beautiful picture. you probably can't grasp the full meaning of its beauty, of why i love it so very, very much.
you see, that picture was taken in long beach.
the first person on the left is matt. i went to junior prom with him when i was a freshman. so officially, he's my prom date. and we wrote tons to each other when he was in the air force. and he's just... i love him! lovable and cuddly and every time i see him he picks me up and swings me around and wraps me in a great big hug until i'm squished. he's the best!
then there's greg. he's just cool. i met him last time i was down there and he showed me all the pictures of the girls who are in love with him. he's got a bit of an ego, but he's also a very cool person. he took one of my bracelets for his collection and thinks i hate him. it's cool.
and last we have william, the master of weird hair colors. he's had everything i can think of, and he's been my favorite since i first met him when he was talking about studying the kama sutra. he's perfect, i tell you, with his nifty hello kitty wallet and cell phone plates, and his weird shirts, and his outgoing crazy personality that makes everyone he's around feel special. he's also partially blind in his left eye, because it got shot while he was paintballing.
anyway! so these next few days i'm going to be putting up pictures like this for you all, because i got a roll of film developed with tons of beautiful pictures on it. however, these will only be my favorites, so if you want to see allll the pictures, go to my website! they're beautiful.
guess what! this is, officially, the one year anniversary for my blog! i'm almost considering switching to xanga, since some kind of cult seems to have sprung up with that, but now i'm commited. i'm sticking with my blog and that's that! i'll have no more of your arguments!
so today i ran and then tuey and i went bra shopping! we almost died over the 50% off underwear bins, 'n we got some pretty nifty underwear and such. i also bought some jewelry to wear for winter ball, and it would have been PERFECT, except the beads aren't the right color. crap! so wednesday i'll probably return them and buy something else. mother said it was okay.
speaking of mother. she came in and was wanting to see what i bought, and the jewelry was in my bathroom so while i was showing it to her she started commenting on how gross the bathroom is. i swear, i've become a bitch lately, because immediately i set in on why scott irritates me so much. he's gross and dirty and needs to grow up and take responsibility for the way he's screwed up his life. so, yeah. my mom left and came back a couple minutes later to make a compromise with me. this was totally unexpected, but i'm happy about it. they're not going to make me clean for my cell phone anymore, since they gave scott and brent cell phones too. instead they'll pay me $10 an hour for all the housecleaning i do, and the money i earn will either be given in cold hard cash, or taken away from the "money i owe my parents" fund. which is currently about $100, and will soon grow once i find time to go jeans 'n t-shirt shopping.
oh and at work? tosha and i cleaned all the bleachers, yippee, it happens all the time. february's going to be a crap month for work. every monday, tuesday, thursday, and friday. fridays 3-10:30. and then one all-day sunday. ugh.
at least i know i won't be doing this forever. lifeguard training in april. then i'll have a new job.
after work i went to her house and ate the best pasta roni ever made on earth. her house is cool, they buy everything in bulk and her kitchen table is covered in fake flowers, since her mom and aunt are thinking about going into some kind of flower business.
so umm.. i probably have more to say but i'm afraid of carpal tunnel, still. i know i'm getting it. but what to do? i don't know how to fix my keyboard for it.
oh right! and ryan says i should put shout outs for all the people who read this. so.
ryan~! you're the coolest mohawkin' dude i've ever met! thank you sooo much for letting me touch it that one day, you rock my socks!
tuey~! kick him. kick him hard. and then take a picture! and always, if you have someone to shoot, i'm here to help!
tobias~! (?) not sure if he still reads this, but i miss you! we never talk anymore, it's like we're drifting apart... *sigh* ... don't ever forget the spinning chair!
ryan~! (the other one) man buddy, so sorry about saturday, guess the presents will just have to wait another month, huh?
and everyone else? i don't know who you are. let me know though, and i'll feel honored that you take time to read about my life.
