Greg, Julian and I watched The Descent last night, and we nearly peed our pants while convulsing in "WHAT THE?!?! AHHH!!" It was totally a scare-a-thon. Good stuff, actually. THOUGH. I must note that Greg was the least bit scared. In fact, he had no fear. On the other hand, Julian and I were freaked the hell out. At times. Greg took me to a Japanese steakhouse, where I played with my new found friend Ninja. Maybe his name is Tetsu. Maybe it's Victor. I kind of like Frank. He is miniature in size - about as tall as my thumbprint. He is in HIYAH! stance, and when added to water, he morphs into a three-foot human raring to fight but without the real power to take anyone down. Sidenote: There's lot of stinky garbage in Ann Arbor. In spots. I should mention that Greg also has a ninja. His name is to be announced. Thinking of it now, his ninja is in OY-CHO! stance. Tetsu/Victor/Frank/my ninja likes to HIYAH! in ice cream and to hover at the edge of water glasses. IMPENDING DOOM should be but is not his middle name. That's mostly because he doesn't have a last name. The steakhouse was fun. We sat at a HOTT table with four healthy couples of yuppies. Greg made some innappropriate joke which I can't remember, but I remember him saying, "I'm just kidding." I refrained from talking to them, but I caught one of the girls frequently looking at me. Maybe she wanted to be my friend. Maybe she had a lazy eye. Who knows?! My head hurts from lack of sleep and too much energy drink. Word to the wise: Don't ingest two energy drinks post 11:00pm. We went to sleep at 5? 6? Ridiculous. __________________________________ Arts, Beats, and Eats on Friday: fun times. We ate many foods and walked a good amount. Afterward I had the worst Long Island of my life, which sparked the tequila is fucking nasty post. Saturday night was all about Wordplay, a crossword puzzle competition documentary. I liked it! Saturday night was also all about the Heif Weizzen and the WAB photobooth. On Sunday Nicole and I enjoyed delicious Mexican food on a patio in Royal Oak. Then we bargained and schmoozed with flea market regulars, which was a total treat. Love it! Love flea markets! I got a Daisy Duck ring, a little blue rhino for my car, and a Popular Science magazine from the fifties to be used for paper crafting. Yays! Today is Monday. I am still in Ann Arbor. My host is asleep. Maybe I should go wake him up so he says awful things to me... such as, "NO, I WILL NOT MAKE YOU NUTELLA FRENCH TOAST, GIRL!" With no better way to end this, I will only say that my ninja kicks ass. Frank! |

I am notorious for preparing a fresh cup of ice water, and then forgetting about it until the ice melts. I suppose it works better this way. The ice doesn't hit my teeth, and the water is chill, chill, chill. |

So, I haven't read my friends page in exactly 12 days. A lot of good stuff has been happening lately, and I'm pleased as punch. Sorry if I haven't read about your good stuff or your bad stuff. I've been away from the computer. This is no real update. Just a note to say, yo. In other news: Craft fair's coming up - get pumped! |

There's really nothing like holding a warm Dixie cup of your own pee for the first time. I handed it to the nurse, holding back laughter, trying to steady myself because it had no lid. Then I took off my clothes, and I'm instantly reminded of the Vagina Monologues... Then there's those exams. Who thought them up? There's got to be a better way to do those exams. Why the scary paper dress that scratches your tits and crunches when you lie down so you feel like a wad of paper someone threw away? Why the rubber gloves? Why the flashlight all up there like Nancy Drew working against gravity, why the Nazi steel stirrups, the mean cold duck lips they shove inside you? What's that? My vagina's angry about those visits. It gets defended weeks in advance. It won't go out of the house. Then you get there. Don't you hate that? "Scoot down. Relax your vagina." Why? So you can shove mean cold duck lips inside it. I don't think so.What a way to end an awesome weekend. Friday night Michele joyously accompanied me to the Loop for Rachel's going away party. There were a ton of friendly faces present as well as offensive body odor. Now that it's a smoke-free establishment, your nose can't fool you. Aside from select stinky patrons, Michele and I had a blast dancing to overplayed hits and Chromeo. Of course, we got Slices afterward and then sat in my car yelling about a boy we both had a crush on at one point. That was hilare. Following our explosion of "NO WAYS!" and "FUCK HIM!!", I did way too many U-turns in Windsor. Safely, we arrived in the States to rock out on I-94 on the way to Ray's house. At 3 a.m. There I peed on his front lawn (because public urination isn't just for boys), and we all played Mario Kart and drank Cokes until 5 a.m. WAY TO GO. By the way, I sucked at the new souped up Mario Kart, and I got pissed while playing and said, "What the hell, I don't play video games! I READ BOOKS!" I think they were insulted. Oh well, it was late, and I was cranky. The next day I woke up at 10:30 and nursed a mild hangover while getting ready for a mitten pin making session for DUCF in Ferndale. Getting ready meant eating two meals, taking a shower, drinking tons of water, and feeding myself pain meds. Pin making went well, but it was a bit too scorching to be sitting outside. Eek but sweet. When I got home I was pretty much beat so I went back to bed and slept until I was woken up by my tummy grumbling. OH AND THEN I WENT TO AN OLD FOLK'S RESTAURANT WITH ROB, AND IT WAS THE FUNNIEST THING EVER. I just got really excited about that because it seriously was the most hilarious thing this year. Our waitress was a robot and she doubled as a robot vacuum. MAN, you really had to be there to get it. After that we went to Target, and I bought my dad the Ghostbusters collector's DVD for Father's Day (which he loved!) Later that night was Katie's birthday schindig at (shhhh) Boogie Fever. The abundance of older men there was kind of creepy, but it ended up being completely bearable and easily ignored. Some of my high school faves were there - especially Kevin, Meagan, John, and Katie (of course.) We boogied our toesies off and all got stupid on the illuminated dance floor. There was also an abnormal amount of blow-up dolls there, and I'm not being proverbial. There were literal blow-up dolls there. One was a man with a ten-inch schlong. Sort of frightening but really just sort of awesomely ridiculous. Like all good nights out dancing, this one also ended with food. National Coney to be exact. We all got full meals, and I felt proud. Woo, eating! Sunday was Father's Day, which meant I had to wake up at 9:30. Randy, Kellie, and I went to breakfast with my dad and gave him gifts. Once we got back, I went back to bed until 3:30 and then goofed around until... The Eels show! It was super duper, and not only did I get to see The Eels, I got to see Jay, Kevin, Mary, Lish, and Benita! Also, I met Melissa, who seems totally keen. In conclusion, life is good -- when you're not getting papsmears. |

The awesome board game above can be found for sale at American Pop in dwtwn Ferndale. This and the Billy Baloney doll practically made my Saturday. I want to have a '90s TV theme party. Lounging beneath a towering tree during at least seven coinciding disc golf games and three matches of hide-and-go-seek played by youthful mothers and their children is a great way to picnic. Feast on Zumba's and read about the Encyclopedia Brittanica in the sun. My feet can be seen relaxing above. Not only did I drink a goblet of Dragonmead on Friday night, last night my friend John took me to its birthplace and home! We both enjoyed the Dragonmead sampler seen above. Also, we played Outburst. What a splendid treat! I never knew the place existed. It is my new favorite brewery and is practically in my backyard. Even better, you can order food or you can bring your own! Sorry Kuhnhenn. Check out that dapper pinky! Way to be proper, John! Today lacks photos, but it does not lack excitement! I had a DUCF press meeting, bought shampoo, and am now going to go do a puzzle at my friend's house. Yes, a puzzle. It may be lame, but it will totally hit the spot. Farewell! |
