  A Sharp Contrast... Song in head: WARM 98 Jazz Saturday Night Current Mood: Pleased In examining my blog editing page, I realize that my last post was on Thursday. However, much has happened since then, of course. Overall, at the moment, I am pretty pleased with the current situation. Nonetheless, perhaps I should delve into greater detail, my friends, for YHN may need to update the wonderful world of his antics. So Friday came yesterday. School was rather boring. Caught the bus to downtown, then walked my 20 blocks to Habitat. Luckily, Jan was able to give me a ride home, since she lives on the west side of town anyhow. This was nice, considering the rain. We had a nice chat on the way home too... I never really knew her very well, and it's nice to have a little more background on some of her life.
I had bits and pieces which seem to now fall together more securely now. So I was at home for a little while, then I went out to dinner with James, the big brother from the Big Bros/Big Sisters Program. (That was a post-blog development on Thursday--calling him up after such a long time). The dinner was good, and I was more than happy to catch up with him. I felt like shit for a lot of the time for sloughing off his phone calls and being a jerk, but that was due to me.
I had a nice time in spite. Then, I met Johnny boy for coffee up at Starbucks briefly. Had a fun time there, and got pumped with caffeine for the impending journey. I was to meet Micah at his church for an outing to LaserWeb, where we would play laser tag all night long until 0600hrs. This was an event that I didn't have much fun at last year, but that I was strangely looking forward to this year. I had an excellent time though, because I was so hyper and chilled-out and what not. It was strangely odd to be swearing so much in front of the ppl in my car though. (I happened to get the only car load of actually devout Christians that they have in the whole youth group. ) However, we all went to Laser Web, and I had a good time. Also, I got out of having to pay the $15 fee by mingling in with the crowd.
He he he... So I had some $$$ to play the video games, including the Dance Dance Revolution machine, which has to be the funnest arcade game since Pac-Man. Nonetheless, Scalf was beasting it up in the laser tag, pulling off ranks of 2nd, 3rd, and 5th in the 3 games I played, out of about 24 players.
:-D Micah was pissed though, because I consistently beat him. *shakes head* However, at a couple points, this little church outing got out of hand, like when they started to pass the fattie in one of the party rooms, and there was some macking going on in some other places too. Hence, I cut out early at 0330, putting me home around 0400, and sleeping finally around 0500. I woke up at 0730, said "Fuck this" despite being wide awake, and went back to bed until 1300.
Woke up and got a shower, then did mom's taxes on the internet. Which, long story short, led to a humongous argument about her intelligence that she entirely started herself. I wasn't in the mood, so I promptly finished it. However, I put in the order for her $3000 or whatever refund, which should be direct deposited within 6-10 days. :-D (The sooner she gets it, the sooner I get to drive to school again). Thus, I left the house around 1600 and ended up... guess where? KENWOOD! Just like EVERY SINGLE TIME I leave the house it seems. So, as I'm walking into the Madeira Krogers to get some Vernor's, I get a text from Kathleen, and then a phone call. So I swung by her house and hung out for a while. Mr. Kennedy ordered pizza, and referred to his wife as "Mrs. Kennedy" instead of "Tricia," which struck me as highly awkward for some reason.
But, after dinner, fixing pop-up ads, and being complimented on my weight-loss, Kathleen and I went on down to Jack Quinn's in Covington (not Newport), for a benefit concert to which we were both invited, but by separate people. After we finally tracked down the place, we had a lot of fun there, but left around 2130, and drove around until about 2300. And, hence today was a "sharp contrast. " Here, it started off like shit, and out there, in the world, it went great.
*shrugs* At least I ended with the good news. And tomorrow... work at the museum. That should be fun. Then, dinner at Kathy's (in KENWOOD) like nearly every Sunday. I have homework to do, but it should get done at work tomorrow.
He he he.
I had a real weekend... and it's such an oddity to have a weekend jam-packed with improptu stuff that I had something going on every day... Wow... That's another sharp contrast for ya. It can't go on the wall, but this is the best I can do: "If I ever meet someone who can bullshit as well as I can, I'm screwed.
"
