sleeping kiddies

i keep having little flashbacks to my time in shoreline. i was standing by tuey's front door looking out the window and remembered thursday night, when jake was begging for a dollar for some coke. i rolled my window down and he freaked out. "is that window open?!" i couldn't understand what he meant until i was trying to get something out of the van and didn't realize my mom had rolled the window down. i tried to put my hand on the glass for support and freaked when i realized it wasn't there.
so. basically shoreline was beautiful. there's this huge park down by the library, just giant fields of open grass where people can fly kites. it's all on a steep hill where there could be mudslides, so it's all leveled and basically, the further you go, the higher up you are from the streets below. at the very end of the fields are some trees, a few grassy knolls, steep hills, a giant 3 level staircase that skateboarders drool over, and a beautiful view of the puget sound and the mountains beyond. i'm going back there this summer for a few days so cole and i can watch the sunrise.
as for last night, tuey's was fun. i'm still there but everyone's asleep. i passed out at 4 am i think, woke up every now and then to add something to the conversation, and when i woke up at 8 they were all down. we played a lot of tetris and halo, a little go fish, and there was lots of stumbling and hugging and fake-fighting and just all around good times. before the sun went down, brenda and i walked around tuey's neighborhood, met a dog that we named toby (her choice, tobias, this had nothing to do with you), and brenda stole a little kid's skateboard. we spent a long time trying to find the park, and at the top of one hill, we realize we'd been heading in the wrong direction and it was on the hill across from us. ... my story is done now, because i just lost interest in typing it.
