today i opened...

today i opened a fresh, lovely can of dr. pepper, only to discover that it was completely flat. how does this occur?? it boggles the mind.also, a group of eight hardcore kids showed up at the chinese buffet when my mom + i were having dinner. i was confused, especially because i didn't know any of them. i didn't know there were more than like three hardcore kids in midland. then i tried to explain the concepts of 'hardcore' + 'scene' to my mother. don't try this at home.we were showered with shards of fireworks last night at chippewassee park, due to the wind + the morons shooting them all off closer to the crowd than ever before. rosy almost lost an eye. we were watching three-inch-long pieces that were still glowing red fall on the crowd. apocalyptic, i tell you. yay freedom. on a somewhat related note, the commemorative tower in nyc is going to be ugly. as hell. a spire made of wind turbines?? wtf, people. if any of you ohio staters feel the urge to go to cedar point, some of my friends who are also on the quarter system + i are planning to go some weekend in september, since we'll be the only ones left who are still on vacation.dieselsweeties owns my soul.

r...

redeye, euchre, tire swing.the movie ice age, a large girhardelli chocolate muffin-brownie thing, popcorn, bitching, tickling, commiserating, kitties with catnip, being five.the only things that could have made the second half better are my favorite people whose names start with n. twas a good night, nevertheless.EDIT:it is now 523 am, + i have not yet slept. i suck at life. it is twilight, + the first birds have begun to chirp. my legs are all fidgety + awake, my feet itch. dunno if any of you ticklish people have ever tried to scratch your feet, but it doesn't work, fyi. i'm so fucking tired, but i can't fall asleep. maybe i'll go watch the sun rise. i hate my body; it keeps doing stupid things. i feel like going out onto the porch, but i don't want to wake mom up, because she's been having sleep problems too. what to do, what to do. curse you, lower body. you are the cause of all my irritation lately!EDIT TWO [611 am]:i went outside, but i missed the sunrise. plus there are too many trees, which i did not take into consideration. however, i saw a bunny. it was cute. also, the birdies were singing... they were the only sounds. no cars, no people, just birds. it was peaceful. if i can't sleep this time, i fucking quit.EDIT 47.5 [1226 pm]:oh god, i love my boyfriend. cuteness follows.amokrn's away message: adpfiauasdfadjhgadk. why can't i sleep??extensivebrevity: See, the universe has a limit on the total amount of beauty allowed at one time. It must have hit that limit temporarily, and since you're beautiful when you're sleeping, like, your normal gorgeousness factor plus a little cute, it couldn't allow you to sleep. So blame it on a pretty flower that needed to be picked or a cute little girl who needed to scratch her knee and cry a little.

made ...

made two shirts with laura, + it got me back into my obsession with iron-ons. most of you know this already. made one that is black + says 'I <3 NERDS!!1' [yes, just like that] + has a heart patch on the sleeve. made another that is also black + has three tiny cherry patches on the left side, like where a logo would be on a polo shirt. i have transfer paper with which to make an explodingdog shirt, because i love it with all my heart.now, for the piece de resistance. ashley + i have decided to respond to the fucking atkins diet + all other stupid-ass low-carb foods now on the market. our shirts will have a picture of a loaf of bread on them, + they will say 'EAT CARBS.' they may possibly have the food pyramid on the back. because we are just that cool.
