i think this may be my 100th blog post. whoopie.
things have been alright since i last blogged. the friday night that i posted my last entry was appreciation day for the high school marching band. it's really wierd to be on the other side of things now. and it just made me miss it even more. things were different than past years' events, and i really can't complain... it was just... depressing i guess.
that night i slept over at jessica's. we spent a lot of time talking about stuff. it was nice to actually catch up with her. we hung out with her mom some, which was cool. didn't get to sleep until like 2am, haha. let's just say i had some bizarre dreams that night. and i woke up at one point breathing in cat hair from the feline that was relaxing next to my face. how lovely.
saturday i went to the racetrack with my brother. it was awesome to be in the pits with his fiance's family, who races. i fell asleep at one point between rounds, though - bad idea. my right arm has a horrible farmers/golfers stripe. seeing as i am neither of those things, it looks ridiculous. thankfully now it's faded a bit, but this week was kind of embarassing.
sunday we got up to go to church. my second cousin's son was baptized in the service that day, and it was really great to see that side of the family. amanda, who shares my birthday, is going to be a SENIOR in high school next year. i can't even believe it. we went to their house after church for a little party, i guess, even though the kid slept most of the time and cried the rest of it. ah well.
monday i got to march in the memorial day parade with the alumni band. for whatever reason, the drums totally screwed up and probably made us look like fools. it was REALLY wierd to march in khakis, though. so used to marching down that street in 95% wool.
this week has been nothing fantastic. it rained for quite a few days, which was just gross, so i've been cooped up inside and it's driving me insane. thursday we had a fire at stephanie's house. Yes, we're the smart kids who try to have a fire after a thunderstorm. i had to keep throwing more newspaper on it to keep it going! brittany showed us an interesting trick - lighting hand sanitizer on fire. it burns the alcohol off and doesn't burn your hands. so then we put it on the sidewalk and had a fun time with that. eventually kelly came up with the idea to go to the lake - so five of us took a car ride out there. it was soooo creepy in the dark. we went to one of the docks, and all the boats were creaking and making all these wierd noises... i was getting chills the whole time. we walked out to the end of the pier thingy, and it was so impressive to just see black. pitch black. and you could tell where the cities were, because the sky was so much lighter. after a while we all hurried back to the car because it was so strange to be there in the dark by ourselves.
today mom and i went out shopping for yet more stuff for the bridal shower. i ended up getting new capri pant things, a bikini, and shoes. i needed shoes for the wedding anyway, and i had seen these really awesome hightops in the store, so i convinced my mom to go there. hopefully the shoes i found will work for the wedding. becca didn't really have any specifics, and i didn't particularly want to buy heels that i might wear three times in my life, so i found some dressy sandal flipflop things. i came home then went over to the field to play softball with brenda for a bit. it was a bit squishy because of all the rain we had, but i hit some really nice line drives and it felt so good. i'm so happy i finally have a glove i can catch with.
anyway... that's my week. i bet you were oh so fascinated with it. yeah right. I'M not even interested, haha.
