Where did I leave off? Oh yeah, we tried to shave the cat and hung out with MFEO.
The rest of the week was really low key. Monday we sort of ended up hanging out with the BNB all day by accident. I went to see him at work and get my present. He forgot it at home, so we went over there and played with the puppy. I also managed to steal a book and season one of Full Metal Alchemist. When we walked out of the shop, Poprocks looks at me and makes some comment about he could see why we were friends or compatible or something. After a whole 10 minutes. I’m glad every one else can see it. Whatever. If it was meant to be, it would have been.
Tuesday we didn’t do much, Banky came over and hung out and smoked some hookah and drank some beer. I got a text from facebook telling me Toast dumped me again. Via facebook message. Yep. I’m not even sad or angry this time. Just annoyed. So over it. When Banky left, Poprocks’ comment was “I can see why that went where it did”. I didn’t ask for elaboration. We spent the rest of the evening playing Mario Party on Gamecube and cracking up. We used to stay up until dawn playing that shit with Douche McGee and we’d all fall asleep in the same bed, like a bunch of puppies. I miss those days.
Wednesday we ran errands and were lazy. We decided to graduate to Mario Party for Wii. I kicked his ass in everything except boxing. We both almost had massive coronaries from boxing. He beat me and I cracked up because in the course of our 10+ year relationship I have given him at least three bloody noses. Irony. We has it.
I gifted Poprocks back to his family today. Then I left town to go see mine. I drove what felt like days, and I finally hit the border. I stopped in to see my sister at work and get a bite to eat. Everyone decided to bail on us, so we’re laying in bed reading/writing and smoking cotton candy flavored hookah. This was after and epic adventure at the grocery store. We shop for food like pregnant stoners. We got everything from english muffins to pizza and chips and salsa. It still doesn’t beat the night we bought a pie and stuff to make guacamole.
We are not going to Warped Tour as previously planned, Totoro couldn’t get off work and Dinga has to save her money for senior pictures. So Totoro and I may go shopping tomorrow for a dress for me for the wedding. It’s in September. The same day as the Lucero show. It’s in the city that Douche lives in though, so I think that’s just me being looked out for.
I am going to start reading Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy this weekend. I am excited and scared. I know it’s going to be really bloody, but I am excited to put it to the soundtrack Ben Nichols put together for me, in my head. In fact, I’m going to go listen to it now and perhaps start my book. Or go to bed. I am so old and tired.
