Weekend

So on Friday Mom and Dad went out for dinner so I went to Best Buy and got a new CD, Maroon5 and a DVD, Blow. Both are awesome. I love Maroon5. They are really awesome. Mom and Dad didn’t come home till late and so I didn’t go to bed till late, and then I had to work the next morning at my new job. Its a deli/smokehouse that my mom gets all our meat from. Its yummy and so much fun to work there. I make sandwiches and ring people up and yell “ORDER IN” through the window to the kitchen. Its fun even if Eric is a sourpuss who glares at everything and everyone. But I worked all day on my feet and I didn’t eat much. So when I left I had a headache and my feet were killing me. Mom and Dad had a friend over for dinner and Mommy bought me Smirnoff and I got a little tipsy, but I slept really well so that was nice.

Sunday morning I had to go to church and play piano then run off to work. I was suppose to leave at 3, but then Chris asked me to stay till close. Which was 6, then a little more for cleanup. Then George asked me to stay with the ice cream, which sometimes stays open till 9, then clean up. But it was fun. I learned how to use the slicer and Dad and I traded stories about how to use it. I also got to hang out with Joey and John. They are so funny. I’d be like “Dorkbrain hand me that spoon” and Joey would go “Here goregous.” It always made me laugh. And Joey is the banana split master. I don’t like making them so I make him do it for me. So after cleanup I didn’t get home till like 8:30 cause Joan wanted to close early, which was really good.

Somewhere in the weekend, I’m so tired I can’t remember when Danny talked to me and basically said he was going off again and wouldn’t be around for a while. I hate it when he does that.

And Monday was just a long day in and of itself.

I was dead tired, and Dad almost forget to drop me off at school. But I got coffee and woke up a bit. Matt came and sat by me and we talked for a while, which is always fun. And I went to my BHS class, which pissed me off. I can’t stand that teacher, she is so DUMB!! She was trying to convince everyone that if we all became vegaterians we could end world hunger. She’s living in the environmental/save the world daydream. It got me really mad and woke me up a bit which was good…I guess. I went back to the cafe and ranted to Matt who just smiled and nodded and let me go. He’s so awesome. I was trying to get him to come to the Missing September and Matchbook conert. But he was like, Only is Alexis or Ian will go. Then Alexis came over and wanted to drop one of her classes. So Matt and I went with her to the registars. We were sitting there and I was beating up on Matt cause I was in that kind of mood. He was taking it too for the most part, which was good. Good release. And I was like please come to concert. He was complaining that he didn’t have a ride (I would have picked him up!) and he had no money. I could have loaned him the $6 too, but he didn’t want to owe me. So then something someone said struck me. And I was like “Matt you know I’m not crushing on you. I just don’t wanna go to the concert alone.” He said he knew. He could tell when I was crushing and when I wasn’t. Gave me an example little bastard, so I know he’s right. So that was out, which was nice. Then I went to the lounge and tried to get Becca to go with me, but she had to work. So Dad picked me up and I went home, ate dinner then jetted to the concert.

Oh, my goodness. I loved it. I saw bunches of people that I knew and I could hang with like Laura and Brian and I met Lindsay and Tim and talked to Andy and whatnot. Just hung with everyone. Rome played first which I missed most of, but I was there for Missing September. I’ve never seen Graser performed live. Oh my goodness. It was amazing. The energy and the emotion coming off that stage was just about suffocating. And Dana wasn’t doing the reading over top so it was pure music. Pure emotion. The rest of their stuff was really awesome too. Then Laura and Lindsay and I went outside cause no one was really inside and it was cold or hott or the opposite of outside. And Andy was like you have to come to the after-party. We also got the CDs. We stayed outside till Gibbler played and then I watched them. They are actually pretty ok. But then Matchbook came on. They were so amazing. It was cool. And because it was Monday, there were not that many people and the moshing wasn’t too bad. Afterwards everyone was hanging outside. Andy was like come to the party and Russ was like no come to the diner with us. **ditzy squeak** I’m so popular!! **hair flip** Anyway, I ended up doing neither cause I needed to be home by 1 and it was like 12:15. So I went home.

Somewhere on the ride home, I fell. Emotionally crashed from the high that had been running for the past 6-5 hours. And I crashed hard. Those turns in the road started looking straight, straight to a solution to the problem in my head. (You know the one that doesn’t really exist.) So I wanted to call Manny, but I didn’t so I tried Russ instead. But his phone was being evil. So I ended up calling Manny and really freaking him out. I did make it home and into bed. Manny made me promise I would call tomorrow to make sure that I was ok.

But Tuesday I was at work all day and was a lot better, but I didn’t want to talk to Manny. It was still too soon. So I ended up writing him a weird short email of I’m fine. I can’t talk yet. Which he took and said ok. I emailed Heather and told her to call tonight. I also talked to Bobby and found out he has a girlfriend. So cute! She seems really nice and perfect for him, too. He was asking about DCC, so I told him about the lounge rats and he was so funny! “My sweet Kate is a lounge dweller! NOOOOOOO!!!!!” He was so adorable. So that was good. I got home fromw ork. I had the evening planned. Study and do some work until Gilmore Girls. Watch Gilmore & clean room. Talk to Heather then bed. REALITY CHECK: Mom and I had to clean out the basement cause some big tank was getting put in. So I agreed to clean until Gilmore. Mom wanted a 10 min rest. Ok, cool. Her 10 mins reast was extented into 2 12 hours of phone calls. She saw the last 15 mins of Gilmore with me. Then HEather called & said she would call back after onetreehill. Cool. Mom then drags me downstairs to cleant he basement. Dad comes home and we are all happily (more or less) working. Dad picks up a paint can to bring outside. But a hole had rusted into the side and it dripped on the carpet, so he and I are trying to clean it up. But according to Mom who is just standing there, we aren’t doing it right. But she can’t help us. Finally she gets carpet cleaner and pisses both me and Dad off. Dad stops helping her and goes outside to organize the stuff we had already thrown there. I ended up cleaning most of it cause she was convinced it wouldn’t come up. But I was getting the paint and my anger out so that was good. And hour later, Heather calls and I’m done with the carpet. She tells me she talked to Manny and that he was still in love with me. Hmm, not what he last told me nor what he told Danny. So I was a little pissed and confused and frustrated. So at bedtime – my room is still a mess, my studying never done….

Oh but it gets better!
