So. My Thanksgiving break was... interesting.



Tuesday night: Got my hair cut. and stuff.

Wednesday: Sent my parents off to Texas for the weekend. Babysat at my dad's for most of the day. Went to my grandparents' house. Spent the night at my aunt's apartment in Lawrence. We watched movies and stuff. It was fun.

Thursday: Woke up around 11-ish. Watched Pumpkin on satellite. Got dressed. Went back to my grandparents' house for Thanksgiving "dinner". Mingled with some extended family members for a bit. Did the drawing for Christmas and everything. After everyone left I stayed with my grandparents and we played Scrabble and listened to some of my grandma's old jazz records. Then we watched a movie. It was really nice to spend time with my grandparents like I used to when I was little(r). After the movie I went to bed.

Friday: Got up. Took a shower. Ate breakfast. My grandparents both had things to do in the morning so I was at the house by myself for a few hours. I decided to take this time to take some pictures around the house and outside a little bit. I love their house. It's out in the country and they have a huge yard and little barns everywhere. It's pretty neat. After taking some pictures (and deleting a majority of them) I ate some lunch. My grandpa got home soon after that and we headed into town to run a few errands. We got back around 3:45 or so and then I watched Barry Manilow (sp?) on Oprah with my grandma. That was.. interesting. I'm not so much of a fan of Barry, but my grandma loves him so whatever. Around 6 I went to Jordan's to discuss plans for Katie's surprise party on Saturday. Austin picked me up from there around 7 and we went to his house and watched Evil Dead II and hung out, which rapped up another good evening.

Saturday: Hung around my grandparents' house until about 1, then I went to my dad's for a while. Went to the Miracle on Kansas Avenue Parade at 5:15. That sucked. It was so cold out, and we didn't know the parade route or anything. So we all had to walk back about six blocks to where everyone parked and stuff. I had a bit of trouble finding my dad through all this mess. I ended up wandering around with Abby looking for her car and she drove me to a pay phone so I could contact my dad. I left my cell phone in my purse in the car. :-/ My dad eventually got me and we headed to Katie's house for her big surprise party. We all waited around until about 8 and then Katie got home and when we all yelled "SURPRISE!" she got really upset. Apparently she didn't want a party at all... but her parents planned her one anyway. I felt really bad because I had partaken in the planning a little, but everything turned out ok, I guess. Katie's parents kicked us out around 10:30 so we all headed to the Marshall's. The guys pretty much just sat and played Madden. Except Miles, Paul, Charles, and Eric. They were all watching eachother download random songs by They Might be Giants and stuff. All the girls left around midnight and all the guys that weren't staying the night there. I stayed and hung out with the boys for about an hour, then my dad came and got me and I headed home. A bunch of shit happened after that. Long story short, I ended up going to bed around 4 or 4:30 in the morning.

Sunday: Parents got back from Texas and picked me up from my Dad's house around 1. Hung out at my mom's for a bit, then Austin came over. We ended up going out to Best Buy, where he dicided he needed to buy the Escape From New York Special Edition DVD for 22 bucks or something. Now he has to sell his NES and all his games. Pff. I would've chosen the NES.

That's basically my weekend. Hope you enjoyed this entry that, in my opinion, was waaay too long. Whatever.

just like the rest
and you feel that I'm subject to a test
But if there's one thing I know it's this
When I lose my sleep it's you I miss"
