Home alone on Saturday night...? Lame. (Scrambly thoughts.)
Yes, there is something kind of lame about being abandoned, when your very own father is out on a date. But I went out with Owen for dinner last night, and we're going to the beach tomorrow, so I'll try not to feel TOO awful about myself.
I've kind of enjoyed the past (extraordinarily lazy) week, inasmuch as I've been away, and then the rest of my summer will be consumed by illustration classes/Marching Band camp (make a joke! I dare you)/summer homework. AHHH summer homework. I actually meant to finish my AP Euro History outlines tonight, only... I procrastinated and now it's too late to start. :D I am so clever.
So, things that have happened... I went out for cake with Emma on Wednesday, in casual lolita (my white BABY skirt is summery and beautiful and I love it to pieces) and we had very nice eclair and chocolate-raspberry cake and a not-so-nice encounter with some crazed Christian ladies. They spent about 20 minutes trying to convert us, which was funny because Emma's Pagan/Wiccan and gave them some nice arguments, despite the fact that they twisted both of our beliefs in relativism to mean that we supported child prostitution (...what?).
The upshot of this is that I now have a litmus test for a religion-- if it tells me that something bad happened to Gandhi after he died, I can't accept it.
Friday I got my senior picture taken, I walked five miles (2.5 of them in heels), jumped-rope for half an hour and did some other types of exercise (yoga and such). And now I HURT!!! It's like the day after the first fencing practice of the year... GAH. My father said I'm walking of an old woman... I'm going to be a really cool old woman one day, you see. Old age is far less terrifying than middle age. :D
And! I got to buy supplies for illustration classes. I've always loved art supply stores, but now I have a purpose there. I've never really been a serious visual artist, so I'm excited to see how this will turn out. Wish me luck?
