sit right back and you'll hear a tale

Excitement! I am the proud owner of a new living room rug, new sheets, two fold-up chairs from the Bass Pro Shop, and some new (to me) clothes, all courtesy of my parents. The rug is really neat. It's different shades of blue, in a blocky wave pattern. Very hard to describe, but maybe I will take some pictures. I practiced my guitar last night, and the guitar on the rug looked really beautiful. :)

Kathy called me last night from Newark! Today they're going to NYC and taking a three-hour tour (which we both found to be very amusing).

Other than the shopping with my mom (and a wonderful dinner of grilled kabobs at their house), it was a boring weekend. I was house-sitting Kathy's parents' house, so I spent many hours watching satellite TV. I finally saw (most of) Moulin Rouge, and I really liked it! I also watched Anywhere But Here (very depressing) and Cocoon (kind of boring). And the rerun of Will Ferrell's final SNL. And far too many episodes of Driven. I wanted to swim in the pool, but not by myself. But the guys were busy. So I didn't go in.

I really need more close friends. Kathy and I have such a good time together that we don't need other people so much, but when she's not here, I don't have anyone to hang out with. I used to spend a lot of time with Evan and Ryan, but now they're always busy mudding or playing video games and they don't have time for me. And since I've adopted a loose "don't call them, wait for them to call you" philosophy, I see them even less. It makes me sad. I need other guys in my life, I guess, but I don't want new guys. I want the ones I had before.

Enough whining. Sorry. :)

You know you can call me... True, I'll be in class M-R nights until August, but other than that, I mostly sit at home all the time.

Anyway, I saw Moulin Rouge like a week ago, and I really liked it too. It's just like a Broadway musical. :)

Thanks. Maybe I will call you. At any rate, do you want to go to lunch on Wednesday? :)

I like your new picture. You look like you have a secret. :)

Yes, it really was! It was weird, as I had been told, but (in my opinion) brilliant-weird. I liked all the singing.

Lunch on Wednesday sounds great.. just let me know when/where to meet you.

Jessica mentioned that I'm not smiling in any of my LJ pictures, so I took that one. :)

*raises his hand* I'm a guy! :) But then again, to hang out wouldn't be "hey Brenda, wanna get a pizza?" as much as "Hey, Brenda, how about we plan on going to a pizzaria on the weekend of the..." :)
And then we would have to find the halfway point between here and where you live in Tennessee...which could be Asheville? Wait, isn't Memphis all the way on the other side of TN? Then it might be like Nashville...hmmmm
Ah well...maybe you and Lawson can split a pizza in my honor? *grin*

man walks down the street, street in a strange world, maybe its the third world, maybe its his first time around, he doesnt speak the language, he holds no currency, he is foreign man, he is surrounded by the sound, sound....hehe :) (sometimes my musical memory even befuddles me). :)
