Welcome to Grand Central

Wow. Strange, busy day.

It all started when I tried desperately to take a nap. Yeah, that didn't work so well. First Elizabeth called. Or maybe I called her. You know, I'm not sure. Then Megan called. Then Lyla called. Then Tricia called, at which point I threw the phone against the wall. I got to sleep then.

Anyway, my mom woke me up fifteen minutes earlier than I intended- that was sweet. Not. Then the phone ringed again, and it was Lyla. But I couldn't find it (I checked it later, thats how I knew it was Lyla) Since I threw it against the wall, so I just went and forced myself to eat foods.

Then Dan and Megan came over. Yeah, Lyla, I sort of forgot I told Dan I would go to the St. B's carnival thingie with him, so I didn't call. In case you're reading this and were wondering. Anyway, so Dan and Megan came over, and Megan brought her "Texas hold 'em for Dummies" book, along with the cards, which pretty much tell you how to play. A few minutes later, Elizabeth drifted in. That, too, was fun. We bet with blades of grass. Sometimes wads if we had a good hand. Anyway, then Colleen got dropped off, and Tricia called and said she'd meet us up there, so we walked to Berny's. I walked in my bare feet, might I add.

We got to the carnival. It was rather stupid. We stayed long enough for Megan and I to battle it out on the little jousting thing (I won, in case you're wondering) and then we left. I think it took longer to walk there than it did to actually be there (did I mention that I was in my bare feet this whole time). On the walk home, I called Tricia, and told her the carnival was gay and useless, and that she and whoever she was with could just come to my house. She ended up coming alone. Then Rory called, and we were like "come over" and he was like how do you get there (to my house) and Dan tossed me the phone to give directions, and I accidentally hung up on him, so I struggled to call him back until finally he just did himself. So yeah, he came too. Then we all sat around in my basement for a while, and threw poker chips at each other, and watched the old video of my birthday and all in all it was kind of boring. Right. Then we went upstairs and looked at pictures and left Dan and Colleen downstairs.

Okay, that's not even the lot of the random people in and out of my house. So, sitting around was really boring, and Tricia left after a while. Right, so then Chelsea called, and was like, "can we still come over". So they did. Chels and Carly and Carly's friend Katie. Or maybe it was Chelsea's friend, I don't know. After a little, Megan and Dan and Rory all left (it was their curfew- 11) and then John Jay calls Chelsea (since they're cousins, if you wondered, the mysterious you who is reading this) and was like "so what are you up to?" And they wound up coming here. John and his friends Kenny and Rob. Them. Anyhoo, so we all hung out talking on the driveway, sharing funny stories and the whatnot, and all together enjoying the randomness of company we never have usually. So then Chelsea and Carly had to take off, so we continued to share stories of bad car driving with the Ed's boys, until they had to leave, too.
Then Elizabeth left, too. Always last, that girl.

Anyway, so it struck me of how it was randomly fun to hang out with John and his friends- they're all really funny and totally found my random stupid stories amusing. They're really nice for not acting like they are too cool to associate with younger peoples (I sound like a loser, but its true) and how they just hang out and don't have to be entertained. They're not like some people out there.

Some people. You know?

The next month will unfold interestingly- I can see it.

Oh, and Corey invited me to homecoming. I'm going. If I can figure out how to pull that off without my parents finding out.

I will so work on that.

Yo ho
Yo ho

P.S. It's a quarter after three in the morning, so I'm not entirely sweet with the writing skills right now, so forgive the randomness of this.
