yesterday.... dammit this is gonna take a while. *mass sigh*
yesterday, mom woke us (morgan and i) up at 11... early start.... and we went to one of mom's favorite stores... i don't remember what it was called. oh well. and morgan and i tried on massive amounts of clothing for back to school ness. and i remembered that i HATE buying new pants. are you short? if not, do you know what its like to attempt to find jeans that fit? well they fit alright but theyre desperately long. but anyway.... i didn't actually find any pants at that store. and then we went to uhm... the Mall Of Memphis. (its not the only mall of memphis. but whatever.) amazingly enough. mom HATES the mall. so they didn't have the stores that are at the other mall that we usually (usually meaning once every other blue moon) and that was depressing but we went into gadzooks and i went look look a superman shirt and it was just like the one my daddy has. i want a batman shirt. morgan wants a green lantern shirt. dad bought a new flash shirt and it kicks ass. i want a flash shirt. anyway.... uhm....
so we looked around and i didnt see any jeans i wanted or anything.... and then i bought three pairs of socks because they were cool and i like cows and they are now extremely wet and in brittany's room along with my shirt. brittany if i could get that back, it would be great. x_x anyway. then uhm i saw spongebob shirts and super girl shirts. one was like this. not REAL supergirl shirts. i would LOOOOOVE to have a REAL supergirl shirt. even though this is amazingly cool. but its the old supergirl. i meant the new supergirl. her shirt. yeah so anyway. i wanted a spongebob shirt of a tootsie roll pop shirt or something but mom was like 'we're leaving' so we left and i was hungry and i was like foooood but nooo and then we went across the street to whatever that other clothing place is and i bought three pairs of the dreaded jeans after trying on 503958490235687093257803258 pairs. and one of them was long and mom's like 'ohhh we'll get it hemmed' and you know we won't. but hmmm.... oh yeah and i bought a strapless bra because i needed one desperately and morgan got a little one too hahahahahaaaaaaaa. and then uhm. we left. and we ate chick-fil-a and the workers weren't wearing their chicken hats, brittany!! we're complaining!!!! mom says we were robbed of our full chick-fil-a experience. and morgan found a penny in her fries and i told her we were gonna sue. only not. then we peeled the thingies off our drinks and morgan and the lucky penny won. mom and i did not. morgan won a uhm... free breakfast chicken thingie? whatever. ahahhha.
mrs. buck, my history teacher in sixth grade, found a big green pill in a bag of lays chips once upon a time, and she like called them and told them and they were scared that she was gonna sue so they like sent her this fed-ex thingie so that she could mail it back to them... ahhahahaah. destroying the evidence and whatnot.
chicken fat lady chicken fat lady
then we were gonna go to officemaxx to get morgan's school supplies, but morgan lost her list in the first place we went to.... ahhaahah. she left it there. and we were all bushed anyway after like... two hours of shopping/eating. we are so pathetic. but anyway. mom had PROMISED us we would go to moondance. and we did! and it was bliss. we stayed for a forever and tried on lots of shirts and stuff... morgan ended up getting two of their trademark shirts or whatever. the ones that are flowie and dyed and embrodeired and beateous? and i got two as well. and morgan also got another emily shirt. and uhm its all amazingly cool. plus today i found all three of our OTHER emily shirts that we couldn't find... they were all hanging in the laundry room. hahaah. and i think they'd been there a mighty long time. so uhm. what was i talking about? dammit all. oh yeah. it took us forever to decide what to get and we just got clothes and mom was trying to get me to buy brittany a candleholder and i was gonna get her something.. but i ended up not. i DID resolve to bring her back that weekend and make her pick out something herself that i would pay for. which we did. which i'll get to. so anyway we were looking at the emily stickers which were really cool and mom's like 'lets get one' so morgan and i picked one out. and morgan and mom and i were talking to the guy at the counter about like our budget for clothes and things and how we were spending all our money there and he was like 'i'll take pity on you' and he told morgan she could HAVE the emily sticker!! (she was carrying it) and she's like 'thank you!!!!' and he turned to me and he was like 'you can pick one out to' and i went 'REALLY' and he's like 'you better hurry before i change my mind' so i was like 'THANKS' and i get one too. and it was a good thing. yes yes surely was. so uhm. i feel really offtrack now. dammit. eh..... ok so then we went home and i got online and talked to brittany and we decided we should get together and she was telling me about this really kickass store they found at the Hickory Ridge mall that's supposed to be like 'goth' or whatever but uh it was amazingly cool seeming. she bought a death shirt and a morpheus shirt and so that kicks ass. it was part of her birthday present. so it took us like two hours but we finally made definite plans that my dad found too complicated but that's just too bad for him. brittany's family drove in to midtown and picked me up and we went to this vietnamese restaurant and brittany's mom like attacked me because she didn't think i was eating enough and it was actually pretty funny. and i rediscovered that i am deformed and cannot use chopsticks. and there were little vietnamese people going shlop shlop shlop all over these massive rice bowls and i was very jealous of my deformed handness. and brittany kept prodding food and putting it on my plate and then william prodded the fish in the tank that were swimming around and he put it on my plate.
haghlakhahahhahagaklkakak you bet. and i told william and elisabeth that they should rub the buddha belly and they did and they rubbed it and rubbed it and elisabeth went 'WHAT DOES IT DO' and then doc rob said 'hey hey quit fondling buddha' and...... yeah.
your skin smells lovely like sandalwood
^line in this lisa loeb song and i like it
anyway uhm... so after that we left and went to the gas station. my it had such a scenic view. we could see brittany's boyfriend scratching himself by a telephone poll and brittany's uhm... mistress.... beating people with his crutch. and elisabeth's husband lying all over the payphone. so that was lovely. then brittany's mistress held up the store while brittany's father was inside it. and then william's boyfriend drove up on this bike and dropped it like right outside the store and i swear the crutch guy would've stolen it if he hadn't been busy. anyway.... then we drove to my house and the whole way elisabeth was like 'THERES YOUR BOYFRIEND' and i couldv'e sworn he was stalking us but you never know because he hides really well. you know he may have been the hubcap.
so we went to my house. yes. wow. alanna's happenin pad. and all the way we listened to fm100 80s at 8 and they were playin brittany's song. you know the one. boy george. and then they played that duran duran one that was a james bond movie and we danced around in the back seat and it was funny and then we got to alanna's happenin pad and we danced to the door and then we grabbed mom and dad and morgan and we all piled off into our car except that somehow on the way we had misplaced dad and he managed to not get there for like... 4574909582 years and we waited in the car for him for a forever until he finally came. then we drove to moondance while listening to the sleater-kinney 'hot rock' & 'all hands on the bad one' cd that i burned for brittany. i made them play track 8 which was 'get up' which is GREAT so go download it. and i knew that 'ironclad' was the only song brittany knew and it drove morgan insane so we HAD to listen to that. and then we just listened to the rest from there and it was good. of course. and we hopped out of the car and went 'too bad too baaaaad youre ironclad IRONCLAD' and we scared the people at the outdoor restaurant. what's that place? the bayou place? i don't know. and mom was like 'what plaid what' and then i was like 'no, no, no.' and then i started talking about the buttcheek doofus song with the plaid line because everything reminds me of a song. anyway. so we browsed for like the longest time and mom was finally like 'we gotta go sometime' and dad was looking at all the superhero shirts and he ended up getting a flash logo one which was really cool. i loved the hulk one. wahaha. i told him i wanted a batman one and a supergirl one. and a ramones one. and brittany was attacking things and morgan was attacking things and we all attacked things. and it was good. and then cain knew his wife ...................a second time.
so brittany only ended up spending $9.50 of my $20 that i worked to earn for her and her only. she bought like six little scented candles with lovely fragrances like strawberry. and then uhm she bought two packs of incense matches which were sandalwood *which is very appropriate because i'm somehow listening to 'sandalwood' again* and uhm... i don't know. maybe some berry thing or a mint. i told her to get musk because that's such a beautiful smell but she didn't. and then i tried to convince her to get a necklace or something. we were looking at those like circle choker thingies? ohhh you know the ones. pretend you do.
mom: do you wear necklaces like that?
brittany: *smile smile* no
mom: do you have any
brittany: *smile smile* no
mom: well that's why you don't wear them then
and..................................
it was really funny at the time.
where was i. i keep getting distracted. dammit all. so anyway we bought the stuff then we drove back to our house and dropped off dad and morgan and mom drove brittany and i out to germantown to spend the night at brittany's house. we there listened to some music and burned cds and hung out and got attacked by the cat and there was no one online so we went downstairs and watched a couple of the same music videos and then we put on psycho beach party and it was HILARIOUS. really really stupid. hilarious. then we realized that it was like 2:30 and we had to get up at 12 so we went upstairs and brittany took a shower (she seriously takes the shortest showers ever. i don't know how she does it. they're even shorter than the ones my mom takes!) so uhm... then we were supposed to be going to sleep and we talked a while about like absolutely nothing and brittany kept murdering my feet, which were by her head, and they were also freezing cold and she was taking the covers off and i couldn't find my socks and then i stole her other little blanket and used that instead. ahahaha but then we didnt even start to actually try to sleep until like ... 3:20 or thereabouts. so then in the morning brittany's mom woke us up at 11 not 12 because we had to drive to elisabeth's kung fu class which is right before brittany's tai chi class. so uhm to brittany i made sure 'happy birthday' was the first thing i said. because it was her birthday!! yay for being 15. which i am not. ahglhahhaah anyway. and i dragged myself out of bed and got dressed and whatnot and ahahhah i had forgot my bra but it was ok and i didnt miss it at all. my socks were discovered deliriously wet on the floor of brittany's bedroom with no water in the cat's waterbowl. so i didnd't wear them. and i ended up accidentally leaving them there, along with my uhm. white overshirt thingie whatever. so we hadn't eaten, but we were late to elisabeth's class as it was and i grabbed my bag and brittany grabbed mighty crispy and we ran off into oblivion aka ..... the place next to funnel channel paints. or uhm.... whatever that place is called. and uhm then we went in and elisabeth ran around and starting kicking the air and there was this huge amount of HAIing and i nearly died and it was really loud but all the music they played was extremely cool. eventually they played like this chinese drumming cd thingie.... it was really cool. the beginning was freaking brittany out cuz its was like 'THUNK............ ................... .......................... THUNKTHUNK.............. ................. .......... THUNK' and she went 'WHAT IS THAT NOISE?!?!!?' and i was like 'its drums' and you'd think she'd know but she didn't because she never does but i did and informed her and then it was really really cool. that first song was really simple mostly just like the big drums.. tympani, probably. maybe something simpler though. i'm not sure. and then like they added a full percussion section and they had like a flute too and a recorder sounding thing but i don't know if there's some chinese woodwind that i don't know the name of. i'm so sadly pathetic. but anyway. so the little kung fu children were really cute and i think i knew one of the little girls from someplace but it gets boring after a while and so i read some of jane eyre even though brittany kept talking and then i was watching this adorable baby who was watching me and he was just the cutest thing ever. he kept smiling at me and playing peekaboo behind his mom's shoulder and then he drooled all over her boob. and then brittany made some funny little comment about it that i don't remember. and then brittany's dad attacked the baby whose name was nicholas and he was adorable, like i said. then the class was over and brittany had to do tai chi and we read the rules for the tai chi ness stuff and i made fun of everything as usual and then uhm.. yes so brittany went to do her tai chi-ingness and i watched her in the mirror because its the smallest class ever of three people. and she couldnt roll her mat over in the correct manner and it kept messing up so this guy had to do it for her and i laughed my head off in the corner and listened to the kickass chinese percussionness. then uhm... let's see. brittany ahhaahh she went too fast and then when they started the new exercises she kept starting with the wrong hand and/or foot and continuing with the wrong hands and/or feet and.... i was amused. then there was a point when she was looking at me in the mirror as well and i wiggled jaunty frisco at her and she was like heehee and doing the little brittany giggle face and whatnot. and uhm yeah then i read some more jane eyre and i got 17 whole pages read in the time span of like 3 hours we were there. then we drove past grahamwood and i went 'look grahamwood' and brittany was like 'nice windows' and we discussed the Wretched Playground Of Death and things and uhm then we stopped at sonic and brittany's dad got a root beer and fries for me and brittany got a junior sonic burger thingie and a root beer and elisabeth got this massive oreo blast and doc rob got a little teeny pathetic wannabe vanilla ice cream cone that swirled round and round and i like those. so i devoured all the ketchup with my fries and brittany finished her burger wayyyy too fast and she was like clutching her stomach and going 'i am never eating a sonic burger again' *brittany does these things all the time you know* and her dad went 'why not' and she went 'because it was gross and nasty and now i feel sick.' *this happens allllll the time* and then i laughed quietly to myself and then like a minute later she was like 'nevermind i just had to burp' and it was amazingly funny that brittany is such a doof bucket. and i was like 'indigestion, eh' and then we drove to chinatown imports because brittany wanted a dress or some pants and we went in and looked around and at first glance all the dresses seemed way way way too big for brittany's size but we like attacked it and i went 'look look this one's short' and we found some smaller ones and she tried on four or five dresses and came out in one and she said that one of them had been too big and two had been too small and would've fit a size more like mine. but they were like short dresses and i don't really like short dresses because i feel too exposed but that's totally beside the point and anyway. so elisabeth stole the dressing room and brittany had to wear the dress around and it was a really good color, we decided, doc rob and i. it was like a silvery type thing sort of. but anyway so after she had been walking around in it a while she discovered that it was hard to sit down because it tightened around her neck and the slits in the sides were too high to wear to school. she'd been wearing her blue volleyball shorts underneath it and when she sat down to try on some shoes you could like see the whole shorts. so she didn't end up getting that but she got a shirt just like it practically. the color was the same but the pattern was slightly different. and she got some small black shoes like the kind my mom used to wear. and she got chopsticks and all of it was a birthday present. oh happy day. then elisabeth didn't understand the concept of birthday presents and was demanding these little pajama thingies. and i don't know if she ended up getting them or not, but later brittany said that when she pulled her arms up or back.. i don't remember like the front popped open or something and so it didnt fit and then her mom like stole it or something. but anyway. then we left chinatown imports and they took me home. and we heard the breeders in the car and it KICKED ASS and then we heard that wretched fuel song 'bad day' and brittany's dad was singing 'i wrote a bad song again' and i was cracking up and it was hilarious and brittany was attempting to sing the real one over him but doc rob was like.... loud. ahhahaha. so i came home and i was all alone because mom was at work and morgan and dad were at the workshop for the new play they're gonna be in. its supposed to be a lot of dancing especially since kimberly's directing it and its about disco. zak and zoe are gonna be in this one too. morgan tried to get me to join but i told her i don't dance. and shes like 'oh yes you do' and i said 'very rarely and very badly' or something of that sort and so i don't want to do it anyway. even though the cast seems great. it would be fun just to hang out with them. i think we should get together with zoe some time... hahaha.... it'd be funny. anyway. where was i. so i read some more jane eyre and i did a load of laundry and folded some things... and then mom came home and she was like 'do you wanna go see ghost world' and i thought it would be great fun and i was like 'sure' and so then morgan and dad got home and dad was like 'no i'm too tired' but then we convinced him and we had some spaghetti and clam sauce and we ran away to studio on the square in overton square which is also where moondance and memphis pizza cafe and uhm..... that other restaurant. they're all there. yes sirree. so uhm the movie was great great great the end was sad sort of. in a hopeful way. hard to explain. go see it. morgan and i were reminded throughout the movie of brittany and myself in the two characters.... it was funny. they even sort of had our hair colors/styles. and like rebecca really wanted to move into an apartment and stuff and she was really serious about doing it and enid sort of just thought of it as 'a seventh grade dream' and and rebecca wanted to make love to the waiter at the diner and enid almost told him so and she was really really funny and she like hated everybody and, as my mom said, she thought everyone was stupid but her. and my mom said that reminded her of me and i went X_X and there was much big x-eyed ness throughout the kingdom. and then i made everyone in my family really really really mad at me when we got home and morgan hates me and things are crappy.
