Weekends are Fun

Nothing is better than having a great weekend. Even though it wouldn’t be much for some people, I can say that I had a wonderful weekend. But maybe that’s because I like to make everything I do somewhat enjoyable. If I didn’t, I think I would go crazy.

Friday: Went to class, etc. The “g-master” (Kelly, my roommate) left me, which made me a sad little kid, but it was okay because I went running with Kyle. We found Tiffany and her friend Meredith downstairs. They asked us if we wanted to go to the mall. We did. We went in Meredith’s car, and she was listening to Tom Petty and Led Zepplin. She smoked but not in the car. I thought it smelled. We went to go get what we wanted. It happened to be hair dye for Meredith. I got a free head band from Tiffany that I wore around the mall and acted like an Indian with. Kyle appreciated it, while Tiffany was embarrassed (because of me). I didn’t have a cool feather, but I swear if I did, I would’ve worn it around so that I could embarrass Tiff more. We laughed hard. Kyle’s and my tummy told us to eat. So that’s exactly what we did. Subway in fact. It was wonderful. We then went back to the car. We were tired little kids because we had a long week, but we didn’t want to not have fun on a Friday night. We went to Kyle’s room because his roommate was gone for the weekend. We watched “Wrong Turn.” The rednecks freaked me out. A LOT. I fell asleep while watching the movie. Meredith dyed her hair and took a shower, but somehow got her clothes all the way soaked. (That takes genius points). I left around 1:00 a.m., which is REALLY early. I got back. I took a niiiice and long shower. I organized some of my file folders such as music, then I went to read/sleep, finally going to bed at 2:30 a.m.

Saturday: Planned on waking up at 9:00 a.m. That definitely didn’t happen. It was noon instead. I finished some homework up before I left to go to someone’s 21st birthday party with a family. I left around 3:30 p.m. instead. I got in Katy at 5:00 p.m. I picked up 2 sisters (which I also have so much fun with), and we went to my house to drop off some laundry and then to Target to buy a card. The card we picked out was perfect. It was the perfect example of how my friends and my relationship is. On the front it had a girl that has lifted up her dress so that her petticoat is revealed, while the guy is just looking down and basicallly, shaking his head out of embarrassment. I don’t how I found that card, but I did. YAY. We had fun at the party. The cake and icecream were really good, as was the coconut bra that we made. (and yes, this was a real coconut, drained and carved and everything) It was pretty funny. We went to a liquor store…you know. All and all, a good time

Sunday: I just spend the night there. I got to see my Michigan friend. I didn’t feel violated at all; how exciting. Out of being there, I got a whole thing of peanut butter. :) (and if you know me, you know how much I LOVE PEANUT BUTTER. I have eaten half a container in one day. Like, I swear if the guy who I am going to marry proposes to me with a ring and peanut butter, I would be the happiest girl in the world. It’s just that good.) I went back to my home to finish up the laundry. I left Katy at around 2:00 p.m. and made pretty good timing. I forgot how easy it is to speed on HWY 6; I think I even “caught myself” going 85 mph. oops. :)

Well, that’s my weekend, but I guess I’ll leave you with a song lyric that I was listening to on my drive back home. It’s called “Follow You” by Josh Kelley. Not a lot of people know him, but he works for me. Everyone better have a grand ole’ time.

“everybody tells me i am wrong
when i know im not
something in me moves me to be strong
cuz its all i got
but i don’t know what to say
when you ask me everyday
my mind won’t let me play
the thought of you
the thought of you

so tell me what you need
im getting stronger
if you will help me see
it won’t be long now
its time for you to leave and i will
follow you follow you

now its you that tells me i am wrong
when i know im not
who bets you don’t listen to this song
its all i got
and i dont’ know what to say
when you ask me everyday
my mind won’t let me play
the thought of you
the thought of you

so tell me what you need
im getting stronger
if you will help me see
it won’t be long now
its time for you to leave and i will
follow you follow you

well isn’t it great
how your restless on my mind
singing songs of broken lives
to clear you in our minds
well baby its great how someone let me find
to live around my life
your picture in my mind
your picture in my mind

so tell me what you need
im getting stronger
if you will help me see
it won’t be long now
its time for you to leave and i will
follow you follow you
follow you follow you”
