I'm so incredibly tired. My head is spinning around in circles that's how tired I am. (I'm usually like this when I get a decent nights sleep after not sleeping for days/weeks) Blaaaaaaah. I thought I'd tell you about my weekend though. I was too contemplative last night to sit down and write.
Nothing noteworthy happened on Friday. We just drove all day, getting stuck in traffic jams all day long (especially in and around the NY area, fun). We arrived in NJ around 9:30 and headed straight to Ger's house to visit for a bit. Then we all headed over to the Veticks and talked a bit over there too.
Saturday was the party. I woke up early, ate breakfast (which I normally hate doing, but Geraldine had already prepared it and I didn't want to be rude), and helped set up the party. It was all outdoors and it was HOT, so I was having lots of fun. :P Not too many people were there, only about 30 or 40 which is a decent number to me. Ben, Daron, and 3 new guys put on a little skit for Ger that was hilarious. It was "The Life of Gerren: Who's Line is it Anyway? Style." They did a great job. Everyone stayed pretty late, but after everyone had left and the presents hadn't been opened yet I forced Ger to open them. Heh. This being at 11 at night mind you. It was fun though. He got some pretty nice stuff.
Sunday was the meeting, (where we chatted with whoever wasn't at the party) and then lunch out with the Veticks and Ger's family afterward. Actually before that I got to see a DVD Don put together for Ben's wedding, which was excellent. I got to talk to him a bit about directing too. He told me the best thing to do was buy me a video camera or a regular one and start filming. Just get the feel of it. :D
Lunch was good, we stayed and talked until quarter to 3 (Ger had to leave earlier than that though because he had orientation at his new college). Then we got on the road and started the drive home. Hey B2!
myplanetvenus! Guess what? Driving through New York we were headed along at a decent clip and this pigeon comes down and starts to fly parallel to us. It was hilarious because we were both going along at the same speed and all I could think of was "WHAT is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?" And it made me think of you. :) There was another funny thing from the drive home I wanted to mention but I can't remember what it was now. Oh well.
There's my weekend for you. It was good seeing all my old friends again. Though they've all grown to be so HUGE! They're all 6'2 or taller. They were supposed to stay short and awkward. Now they may get it in there heads that one day they may be able to whoop me, and I can't have that. :P I loved growing up a tom boy.
This trip did get me thinking though. It made me realize how insignificant I am. I think for a bit there I was getting too sure of myself. This trip most definitely took me down a notch. Got me thinking of how little I know and how much less I have to offer someone. I'm of little worth and lacking in much; sometimes I wonder what people see in me. It gets you wondering who are your real friends and who are just being polite around you, but behind your back they prove to be like venomous vipers. I suppose it's time I remember my place.
*sigh* Hello little world, I am home.

HA with the funny!
Jul. 1st, 2002 02:11 pm"AHHHHHHH. I'm in love with a cartoon. (Pulls a Gabby...... DAVID! EEEE. *thud*- or something along those lines)"-J
R.O.T.F.L. That was the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. heh. I love J. OH! And SARAH with the SG-1 commentary!
ihavefoundmyfeet: JACK!
ihavefoundmyfeet: and daniel!
lordolorien: ROTFL
ihavefoundmyfeet: you MUST SEE
lordolorien: JACK DANIELS!!!!
lordolorien: AAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
ihavefoundmyfeet: rofl
ihavefoundmyfeet: yes, that's exactly what i meant!
Hee! OMG! Okay, I kinda saw the end of last weeks' episode before I should have because when I set my VCR to record I always set it a minute early so I don't miss the beginning of my show (it's a weird habit). So all I know is JACK WAS IN A COFFIN! EEP! NOT GOOD! WHAT HAPPENED? I DON'T KNOW BECAUSE I DIDN'T WATCH THE EPISODE (I taped the 11pm re-airing). But I DID watch Farscape. What a CRAZY episode! I think it was the funniest epi to date. I was on the floor laughing it was just so awesome.
"I am the woman, you are the maaaan!" -Noranti
"OH my god..." -John
"AAAAAAAAAAH!!!" -D'Argo
Tears! I had TEARS IN MY EYES at that part. It was just so funny. I offer to download and send it to anyone that asks for it because it was just SO funny.
"This pathetic weapon wont save you!"
"DON'T YOU EVER. TALK. ABOUT. WINONA. LIKE THAT!" -John
John: Winona would never do this because Winona is very reliable
Hehehe... Winona is John's pulse pistol. Can you tell he's Southern? OH the love I have for him. I think I need to make a John & Winona icon. Hehehe. Anyway, there were SO many good quotes in this episode. It was just hilarious. With the D'Argo DNA, and Rygel, and the old woman... ahaha.... I'm sorry.
Anyway. Saw commercials for this weeks Farscape. I'm going to die. I really am. It was the shortest commercial ever but OH so effective. It's only long enough for John to utter one line and for SOMEONE to collapse. I just... OH I want to see it now. I already have an inkling I will sob.
Anyway, enough of my Scapin'. I'll have to watch SG-1 later tonight to see what happens to Jack. Eep!
[Edit: Say hello to my new... John and Winona icon! Whoop!]

The Middle lyrics!
Jul. 1st, 2002 03:56 pmThe Middle
Hey, don't write yourself off yet.
It's only in your head you feel left out or
looked down on.
Just try your best, try everything you can.
And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle, it'll up the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright.
Hey, you know they're all the same.
You know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in.
Live right now.
Yeah, just be yourself.
It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright.
Hey, don't write yourself off yet.
It's only in your head you feel left out or
looked down on.
Just do your best, do everything you can.
And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright.
Yes. I love that song.
I'm in a very compositional mood today. Yes, that means I've been composing like a madman. Yesterday in the car ideas were flowing through my head like a well-known published work. I've been trying to memorize every chord and every note and put it to paper, but it's proving to be a very difficult piece. I hear what I want in my mind but I can't seem to find all the keys I'm using.
I haven't composed in at least a year. This is such a new sensation. Of course I'm always composing in my mind, I've always got music playing in my head. But I haven't actually WRITTEN anything in forever. I've been too busy with my literary works and my art. I've neglected my music for far too long.
I think I've just figured something out. yay!
*goes back to work*
