no way out
this morning/afternoon my mom made us tend to the backyard.
the problem is, they moved in about a year ago,
and they haven't yet lanscaped it.
so it's pretty much just tall weeds as far as the eye can see
(they have a pretty big yard).
and she wanted us to pull them all out.
we started to, but after an hour or two we realized it would never happen,
their yard is just too big, i was afraid we'd get lost, so we quit.
we really wanted to just go back inside (it was pretty hot),
but my mom was still home and we didn't really feel like getting bitched out.
so we found other chores to do and cleaned out the garage instead.
for lunch we had crackers and nice cold ice water.

pin the tail on the donkey
last week at lipstick ann mentioned she was going to have a surprise for wes.
his birthday is tomorrow.
i wasn't really feeling up to going out, but i felt like i should.
besides everytime i don't want to go places, i always have a good time anyway.
so i had a steak and noodle dinner with my family, then drove downtown.
i was running late (it costs money after 10), so i sped all the way there.
ann had brought a cake and pin the tail on the donkey to celebrate.
i went to lipstick with juju and chris, but they didn't play along.
wes's party was on one side of club, and chris and juju and i were on the other side
(there's only a small dance floor between, so you can easily see the other side).
when i went to participate in fun and games, i felt like an enemy spy.

one for you, none for you, two for you!
after the cake and games, juju, chris and i sat around some more.
i don't think any of us really felt like being there.
i didn't even dance to any of the songs.
so we decided to leave and grab a bite to eat,
we ended up going to del taco because it's cheap and it's 24 hours.
afterwards we went back to juju's to collect our own cars.
in my opinion, goodbye was really weird.
i'm naturally not a huggy person, but i feel like all my friends are.
and hugs are weird, you can't give one person a hug, and not the other.
it's like you're saying i like them better than you,
so juju and i hugged goodbye and then chris and i hugged farewell.
but then we all stood around talking some more,
when we finally went our separate ways, chris hugged me goodbye again.
but it's not that reaction i'm reading into as weird,
it's the reaction that didn't happen that i'm reading into.
juju and chris didn't hug at all.
i drove away feeling awkward, like a 15 year old kid, and i have no idea why.
sidenote: lipstick plays the same damn songs each time.
