Birthday Boy, Brandon (notice the liquor in the background).
So here, is the remnances of that day...
Birthday Boy, Brandon (notice the liquor in the background).
Andy, Mercedes resident, nickname "Lesbian", he was posing I assure
you.
Katie, Harlingen, she woke up about 3 minutes before we got to her house...
and still looks awesome, that's not fair!
Samantha, AKA Sam, Hidalgo, she's dating Brandon, she baked the demon cake!
Blame her!
and me... but the only picture that was taken of me specifically sucked... so (insert poetic license here!).
So the day started off with me picking up Sam waaaaaaaaay early and going back
to my house while waiting for my mom to get ready... then we left with stunning
conversation about hydraulic fluids for the 20 minute drive to mercedes, then
we went to go pick up andy.... AFTER, we dropped off my mum at school... picked
up Andy.... talked about stupid shit... drove to Harlingen, called Katie when
I was about 2 or 3 minutes away and woke her up with that phone call... we hung
out at her house for quite some time while she got ready... Andy, Sam and I
were playing with Oreo (one of katie's dogs) the entire time... let's see...
then we left Katie's house and then went back... because we were lacking in
musical entertainment, so whilst waiting for Katie, we called Brandon and recorded
a long conversation which will be stored... here.
Then we left Katie's house again and Will called me... which was odd. Andy,
Katie, and Sam talked amongst themselves while I steamed in the driver's seat...
We got to Brandon's house... WITHOUT any breakfast waiting for us (baka)...
We decided we'd be more productive if we just went to the mall and ate chinese
and figured out what movie to see....
We arrived in my usual ghetto van, in which i was lucky enough to have realized
I had a handicap tag... which made me feel soooo happy. I even got the closest
one! YAY!
I think we initially went to the movie theater to see when things were starting
and then veered off into the arcade for some ddr and other things... then we
ate... and went to Hot Topic... I think I was the only person to buy anything
(shoelaces, car freshener, and a carebear) lol.... then we went to Spencer's
and EB... again the only thing we bought was one game at Spencer's... for Brandon's
present... then we wandered off to Sam Goody and bought Ferris Bueler's Day
Off, which at the time we felt was very appropriate for the day. hehe. Then
we went to Walden's books... Katie and Brandon looked at manga, Sam and Andy
looked at the Idiot's Guide to Kama Sutra, and I looked for a decent present
for people for Valentine's.
Katie bought stuff and we wandered back slowly to the front of the mall to my
van and the carousel... all five of us got on and rode the carousel... for no
particular reason... all I know is that the pony's saddle reeaaaaaaally hurt
my ass.. Katie's too. lol.
Then we went back to Brandon's house where Brandon and Sam mysteriously disappeared
upstairs for quite some time doing some mysterious voodoo that i could hear,
because i was positioned almost directly below his room.
Let's see... when they finally came down we cut the cake...
BUT! Before that happened... Sam accidently jabbed this knife into Brandon's
finger... after this, she got all shaky and weird. It would have been amusing
if it wasn't kinda stupid.
the re-enactment... I particularly liked how everyone just smiled as it was
happening... Brandon was the only one who wasn't smiling!
And, yes, we just took a regular candle and put it in the middle of the cake..
in a truly lazy SciTech manner. lol.
then everyone wanted to stab Brandon...
sung happy birthday....
blew out the candle... hehe.
and finally cut the cake... or attempted to... when Brandon didn't fufill the
horrible ordeal or cutting a cake into proper sections... they did the traditional
mexican thing... where.. they... well... here.
Before (he looks too happy)
During
After... need I say more? (he looks like he's pain... and you would be too if
you had a cake shoved up your nose!)
This was the cake afterwards... so yeah.
So okay.. we all left after the lovely cake and as I was driving back that
afternoon, by the time I was in Harlingen I thought I was going to die I was
so tired... We all were exhausted and thus blamed it all on the cake! Plus,
I thought it tasted kinda metallic... lol. So, in Harlingen I almost sideswiped
some guy in my blindspot... lol. that was fun. So, we hung at Katie's for a
bit recouperating and such.
We left and dropped off Andy... saw this glorious sign and snapped it while
we were at a stoplight. I got completely lost in Mercedes, and ended up at a
road over what I think was the Rio Grande... which meant that I was almost in
Mexico... by a few feet. lol. Then I went speeding right past a stopped school
bus with the little stop sign out and everything. I really think the cake was
poisoned. Sam and I stopped off at the school finally and picked up my mom...
the conversation after that was pretty listless... I think all three of us were
pretty damn tired... my mum started to cuss out anyone that cut her off... which
was a sure sign that she was in a state of torpor as well. Dropped off Sam and
drove home... and went to work.
