Oh joy, what a day. It wasn't exactly good, wasn't exactly bad, but it certainly was productive. I woke up this morning at the party on my friend's couch covered in cat hair around 9:00. That's better than I had expected, but I'd forgotten that last night was daylight savings time, I was a wee bit confused. Ahhh yes, I need to tell you all about the party. Around 7:00 last night I went to the Halloween "costume" party. I dressed with my mighty Groucho mask, and finally mastered the art of tying a tie. It was good fun, and there's nothing quite like the great Groucho. "If I was standing any closer to you, I'd be on the other side!" Basically the party was a lot of fun, however there weren't enough women my age. As usual the party consisted primarily of older women and men, friends of my friend. There would have been a lot more teenage girls except that the school my friend goes to had Homecoming last night as well, so I guess Homecoming wins in the eyes of the lady folk. Personally, I'd choose a party any day. At parties one can witness all sorts of strange adventures, for instance, the police showed up around 12:00 and said turn the volume down, at 1:00 they played "deep dop" (some 1999 song or something, it was never really popular but it was Pop genre music), and a drunk 23 year old started swearing at the DJ so they turned off the music and forced him to apologize. I see people in one of two manners while under the influence - stupid, or hilarious. For those of you who take alcohol out there, please don't be offended by what was just said. I'm meerly making a statement corresponding to what I witnessed last night. If one is a casual drinker I find it appropriate, however if one drinks frequently for the shits and giggles of being drunk off their ass, then I deem it immature. So, to move things on - We stayed up well past 2:00, because I remember watching a translated anime that was playing inside the house. For those of you who don't know, I really enjoy anime, and my favorite series is the Evangeline series, which hopefully I'll manage to obtain from my friend Sean as soon as possible so I can watch it a countless number of times. Yeah, well, we were watching anime, and then I must have lost interest and fallen asleep. I woke up and I had all that cat hair on me that I told you about, which was annoying and bizarre at the same time. Makes you wonder what the cat was thinking. Wow, I must have been tired to not have awoke while a cat rolled all over me. Some time around 11:00 my mom came and got me. Boy was I hungry, I hadn't eaten hardly anything for breakfast or dinner last night, was too busy being a party animal to eat and what not. So, when I finally got home I found out (to my good fortune) that there was a potluck at the church. Yay for church potlucks! Yay for free food! I ate my heart out, and brought a piece of pie to one of the neighbors because it seems to be becoming a tradition, and she's really nice, and I work for her in the winters. The neighbors name is Chris, and she's right next to the church, so it's a bit odd working there on Fridays and at the church on Saturdays, it's actually rather funny when you think about it - I managed to get jobs in that one condensed area. Oh well, it's kind of cute I guess. They both pay well, and they're all nice people. Chris kept commenting on how handsome I looked, and how muscular I've gotten. Then she thought my foliculitis was poison oak and such - she's really good at noticing everything about a person, the flaw and the flawless. She's a wonderful person. This was only the start of the day though. When I got home sometime around 12:00, after my socializing and what not, I started chatting on AIM and doing a bunch of downloads for swing music. A few cool friends are going to burn me some more swing, which is exciting for me, because as you all are aware lately I'm starting into a swing fanaticism. I downloaded some songs (with the guidance of my friend Shay) that are pretty neat, and I'm going to practice my dancing sometime. Around 2:00, when all my downloads finished and I was done studying for chemistry, my dad got home and we decided to go out shopping for my mom. We drove into town and I bought those army men I wanted, and then I went on a quest to find my mom some _____, however I was unsuccessful where we were. We drove further into town, and tried Rosses, however we were still unsuccessful in finding the _____. Since we're both male and we both hate shopping, my parental unit #1 and I decided to try one more store then skiddaddle off. So, we tried Mervyn's, and were successful in finding the _____. Now, I'm here at home, and it's around 6:30, so there's still a bit of nighttime left. I can't believe it's so dark so early, but then again I can because it was daylight savings. Strange how the human system of time was created. I can't remember if I went off on my "time is but a system man created to motivate" speech yet, so I'm going to rant about it anyway. I believe time to merely be a scheduled system in which the evolved man has created to make me do things - an alarm to make me wake in the morning, a buzzer to make me move around, and a bell to tell me to go home. Interesting, is it not? I've still got a lot of memorizing to do for my World Civilizations test, and I'm getting hungry again, so I'm off to go do stuff. Just remember, tomorrow, the world wakes up at 7:09.
