Hurricane? Pah!

So much for Rita. Supposed to come smack where I live (Corpus Christi) but now it looks like Louisiana is gonna get pwned again. Or maybe Houston. Hopefully it'll just decide to go and finish the job in New Orleans. Nobody there anyway.

We had originally planed to fly out today, but there's no point now so we're just trying to work up the energy to go and undo the boards over the windows...

And my poor best friend...she asked the guy out Wednesday. Not only did he say, no, not only was his excuse lame (Uh...I was planning on asking this other girl out...) but he lied to boot. I had asked him, twice, what his plans were and the first time he said "Well, I think I'll go but probably not with anyone." and the second time "Oh, there's nobody I wanna ask out and I don't think I'll be going anyway." And the second time was only a few hours before my best friend asked him out. Oh and furthermore, the girl he said he was going to ask out already has a steady boyfriend and has had'em for about a year or so and I would be somewhat surprised to learn he didn't know that. Oh, I suppose this all could be innnocent...perhaps he changed his mind over the day. And the fact that he spent two days with said girl having her help him with a project he's doing this year that she had to do last year might indicate he has some sort of affection for her beyond friends. HOwever, the odds of him not knowing about her bf, precisely because of that time together, are slim. My best friend's not sure what she wants to do about yet. God be with her, whatever she does.

Yech

Ugg...I got sick after lunch today I still feel like crap. Must be some stomach/intestinal virus....much bad things happened. Probably won't go to tae-kwan-do tonight....


Hehehe, yesterday was great. I spent 4 hours over at my best friends house trying to studdy with her sister, but we were in my friend's room and she has all these pillows so it ended up into a pillow/tickle fight most of the time. Everyone but me got doubled teamed at some point, which is really odd. You'dve thought the sisters would've gone after the one guy in the room. Hehe...it was great, my best friend kicked out at me and it was just like to the shins, and I was like "What is that? You need to kick higher!" so she does and I caught her foot and knocked her on onto her bed on her back and held her feet while I tickled them. That was fun. SHe was trying to kick me off but she couldn't kick to well she was laughing so hard..heh.

Ugg! She finally decided that she's going to ask the guy she has a crush on out to the Homecomming dance (dunno 'bout choice of things to go to) and he was apparently too stressed today so she didn't want to ask him out. It's bloody monday.....how cna you be that stressed.....

Whew....

Ugg, what a hectic, wrotten, and all around sucky past week or so. Got up and back from Kansas okay. Nice to see my aunt again, just wish it wouldn't have been to go to her husband's funeral....I do sooo love the weather up there. They start complaining if it get's above 30% humidity whereas here it's normal for it to be around 100%.

What else is going on.....let's see, I had a ton of make up work but I finally got most of that done. Just one last test to take tomorrow. I made up a biology test yesterday and it raped me hardcore. I found out that even if I make it to Region (and both Choir directors think I can), i can't go because I have some stupid Law Forum to go to. It's a pretty exclusive thing, I had to get nominated and pay some serious change for it, and I suppose it'll look really good on my resume, but I do NOT want to spend a week in D.C. wearing a suit and dealing with snobbish lawyer wanna-bes and having some pricks who think they're God ordering me around. I'd much rather go to Region competition. Ugg...maybe I won't make it and it won't be a concearn.....

I told my best friend, the one that I love very deeply and would do anything for and would think I'd died in heaven if I could have a romantic relationship with her, that she ought to act on a crush she has and ask this guy out...and that hurt a bit more than I thought it would. I got kinda upset and was a little rude to her and I felt soooo bad for that. But she wasn't mad or upset or anything and forgave me. *sighs* Oh she's so soooo tragically wonderful like that. It was still kinda painful though...I wish she'd ask him out though. Now that I'm over it (well, as over it as I'm gonna get anyway), I don't even really mind that she told me she didn't and wouldn't want to date anyone for awhile....

Word is that my grandmother's got less than 24 hours to live. Sliding downhill fast. I've been volunteered to read at her funeral if my aunts can't do it. I wonder when that'll be....hope I don't have to miss much more school for it....

And I had an emotional semi-break down tuesday. I had a ton of homework, I got home late (though I didn't mind that since I was taking my best friend out to get some school stuff and then home), dad was really pissing me off, and I've been under so much freaking stress lately. Deaths in the family, 9 hours of school a day, make up work, grades to worry about...the list goes on. I was talking to my best friend and I don't even remmber what we were talking about, but dad started screaming at me to get off the computer and go to bed so I got really mad, shut the computer off without even saying goodbye, and then I was upset at dad, and I felt bad because I didn't say good bye, and there was just so much shit going on...I curled up in the shower and cried for awhile, then I felt like throwing up and while I stopped that feeling, I didn't know why I felt like throwing up so that made me cry even more....that was a really crappy night.


Hmm...I can't think of anything else...oh yeah, let's just put it this way. I'm going to be spending a great deal of time reviewing my best friend for every little thing in Government. A LOT of time. *glares pointedly in her direction*


Anyway...I need to get the garage cleaned out so I can put my car in there so it'll stop being dirty and the windows fogged up in the morning when I go to school. But dad piles so much freaking CRAP in there it's hard as hell. I spent an hour this evening and got a pretty big chunk of it tidied up, but there's just sooo much that I don't know what it is, I don't know where it might go, and I can't find any space anywhere to put it. It's very frusturating. Especially when he's been going "Well, you need to clean the garage out so you can put your car in...it's gonna get messed up if you don't." Never midn the fact that when I got the car, I started cleaning the garage up a bit, just the things I knew what to do with, with the assumption that he'd deal with his stuff....no, he just tossed more crap in there and made it even more cluttered than it was before I started...grrrrr.....

Mon Dieu....

My uncle just passed away this morning. He had blot clots in his lungs and while they got rid of those, he wasn't doing a lot better. He was starting to get better, but took a turn for the worst this morning and died. He lives up in Kansas and I live down in South Texas. We're leaving Monday and the funeral is on Wednesday. It's just really...kinda sudden. And now I have to miss all of next week of school which is going to put me sooo far behind. *sighs* What a depressing day.

Only flipside is, Sunday I'm gonna try and spend the afternoon with my best friend just hanging out. Take my mind off of things and be like a bright spot on an otherwise bleak horizon...
