I guess I could blog.

So there hasn’t been much going on this week, so I haven’t blogged.

Last night Brian and I hung out with his pal Mike, Mike is an emo kid but not a scenster. He’s pretty kickin’ at the drums and he isn’t some stupid moron. We sat at his house and watched the Punk O Rama 10 DVD, then headed down to the lake. On the way there Rachel and Kailee (spelling? =X) were sitting outside Common Grounds, we waved. So I parked and we started to walk, bored, and Rachel called my phone. So we hung with those two all night talkin’ down by the lake, it was fun.

I told Krystal I would help her move on Saturday, so I gotta get to her house at 9, I get pizza out of it. They’re going to play Halo…but I’m not too crazy for it any more.

Today is Sunday

On Friday I went to the doctor, I guess they wanted to see me after I finished my mono medication. Turns out I am fine, well not fine but good for having mono, and I can interact with society finally. Yay! I was at the brink of jumping off my roof because I was so bored. So I rested up, and around 8 I went over to Steff’s and we watched Harry Potter. She also got a puppy so we played with it; I don’t know how to spell the kind of dogs name.

I got home and basically crashed out, I was tired.

So I slept until about 10 yesterday, but I originally woke up at like 4:30. I sat around bored, and then around, 2 I think, Steff called and I hung out with her and her pals because it was one of their birthday’s. We went to the beach, walked around, I almost fell in the water because I felt so fatigued I couldn’t stand. Then we went to Marina Gardens for some food, then to this Mystery Thrift shop. I had to get home at 5, saw Steff off and headed home.

I didn’t eat, I just slept. Woke up at 8 and talked to Steff, argued with Steve about Capitialism and society, then he went to bed. Steff went to bed, I stayed up for another hour and went to bed.

I woke up and kept going back to sleep randomly. Finally got up and found a good template for nmdmatt.com, then just sat around bummin’ it.

You know what?

Mono sucks; that is what.

So let me rewind my past week, all last week I was pretty tired and didn’t feel like eating much, I thought I was jusr dehydrated and such. Come Thursday I noticed I had a bump on my neck near my ear on my neck, I ignored it. On friday I had other people feel it and they didn’t know what it was. Saturday I worked, noticed I was real tired, Abi thought maybe it was my lymph node. Sunday rolled around and I just laid around sick, thought I just had a cold. Monday I forget what I did, but oh wow was my throat swollen. I went to the doctor after noticing I was in extreme pain and they took a strept test, I failed, so they took blood. THe test came back showing I have mono. Oh joy. What a way for my summer to go, mono-tized. But we figured that I was contagious already and now I am just sick. I figure I was contagious Saturday, Sunday and Monday. My parents think Friday I was, but I didn’t feel sick at all, all I noticed was the bump. Now I am drinking some dieters drink so I can get nutrition (thanks Brian’s mom for the idea) since I can’t eat.

So, I don’t get to see Steff until friday or saturday :(. But atleast this week happened to be the one Brian was at Fascist Camp, so I am not missing too much. I’d probably be just as bored half the time.

I also found out Lynn took my favorite hat to Warped Tour…which kind of pissed me off. It could have gotten lost so easy, especially since she went crowd surfing. I guess the lead vocals from Hawethorn Heights added their pin to my collection, I’m tempted to burn my hat now. I was successful at getting my movies back though, but Leah has my hat. Grumble.

A while

So it has been a while, oh well. Life has been busy, what can you do. I hung out with Steff a lot, friday night was Bridget’s party. It was pretty fun, saw everyone again. Brian left for Fascist camp this morning. Today is day one of a week with nothing to do. Luckily I was sick so I couldn’t do anything anyways. I hope I am better tomarrow, Steff might come over and I’ll teach her how to play pool.

Relaxation.

Yesterday I hung out with Steff from 11 until she went to drivers ed, we finished A Clockwork Orange. After that I cam home and chilled with Brian, we started watching episode six, but I had to eat. His mom then made him pack for Nazi camp.

Dunno what I am doing today, I just woke up and I am tired.

Bah I don’t even know.

I think after I posted the blog yesterday, sometime after, I hung out with Steff at her friend Roosh’s house; their pals Mike and Emily showed up too.

I had to get her back home at 8, I think we hung out at 5, I don’t remember. But afterwards I went with Brian and Lynn to see Star Wars at 9:45. Got home, and slept.

I woke up today and had to go to the dentist, was home for only about 40 minutes and then went to Kevin’s BBQ. I stayed there till 2:40, got home and went to Brians. Stayed there until four, came over to my house, talked to Steff asked her how drivers ed was, then Brian and I watched episode 4. Yes, we’re nerds.

What are we fighting for?

Last night I crashed at Mark’s, and most of the night we spent having a talk about life. It was a good conversation, and it helped me think more about myself, and what the hell I am doing. I have political ideas and thoughts on what our country should do, but no way to express, no way to get my point accross. No one cares, so that ruins a lot of it, plus we live in Wisconsin, our capital is known to be the most liberal city, we also live in Kenosha, not much goes on here politically except the Bush driving through. I also realized my dreams are just that, dreams. There’s no way in my life my thoughts will work, especially with how society is going. There won’t be any peace, not while we have a war mongrel in office who thinks that war equals peace and solution. People won’t see that colour doesn’t matter, well not for a few generations atleast. Does this mean I’ll give up? Hell no. I decided to take an approach of just simply having a simple conversation with friends, discuss and then they’ll take their own idea; perhaps theirs influences others, and it spreads. With the racism thing, I’ve helped people realize it is infact immature, sure they aren’t pro-unity and stuff, but they aren’t atleast as half ignorant as before. No one cares in our generation, so we must try to get them to. Shoving ideas down peoples necks never works, that just pisses people off. Let people learn on their own, and they will go forward.

Yeah, so yesterday was fun. I hung out with Steff from about 12 till 3:40 when I had to go to work. She’s really a great girl. On my way to work, Quinn’s mom called me over. I thought she’d be yelling because of immature comments I said about Quinn, but she just gave a nice talk and asked what the deal was. I just explained I was pissed because Quinn always tells me to do stuff, but doesn’t always do it herself; not to mention everyone notices her being an asshole, for lack of better words, to me. I mean I know I am not perfect, Quinn likes to show this and always brings up how people say stuff about me messing up. Yet she doesn’t get I don’t care, people aren’t perfect and people mess up. Lilah even told me she isn’t too picky if someone forgets to do something. Like once I had stayed about 30 minutes later to help with dishes but I couldn’t stay anymore and had to go. Quinn got on and said Lilah was mad and she was too because I didn’t finish, but Lilah said to not worry because it didn’t bother her. I loved it.

Enough with work though, it pissed me off. I had to stay until 8:30 because we were missing 20$, Colleen said it was okay because it was probably a miss drop. So I sped to Mark’s to pick him up, got him and his guitar and went to my house to get my microphone. We then left for Jeff’s, we got there to see everything left on and on top volume, I was pissed because everything was moved, Mark was pissed because they used his crap and Jeff was supposed to make sure no one did. Whatever though, we set up and tested. I asked if Frank was there, the lil mexican japanese kid, he’s too cool, and he was. So we got a beat going and started yellin’ “we need Frank”. He wasn’t outside so I ran in and stole him, all the other kids followed to. We played Big Deal, we suck, but all the kids started a crap mosh, it made Brian feel good, me too.

We left, because Jeff told us to, and then the story goes to Mark’s house.

What a day - to come.

I don’t think I’ll be posting for a good while, well atleast middle of tomarrow.

I need to run to the bank soon for gas money, then get my room cleaned up. I am going to go hang with Steff at her friend Emily’s house, then head from there to work. After work I am picking Mark up and we’re going to Jeff’s party where I believe I am spending the night, not sure.

Yep.

Seems to be a pattern.

People seem to like to tell their parents when I give my thoughts about them and get them involved. Toughen up people and accept reality, not everyone likes you, you’re not perfect.

There’s relish on my stud.

I was eating a hot dog and just noticed the relish dripped off and landed on my stud belt, great.

So the day started out later than planned, I tought I’d wake up around 8, but slept until 10. I got ready and headed out to hang with Rachel, stayed there until about…oh…12:55 or so. I had to go to my hair appointment thing. My mom insisted, forced, that I get Sue to dye it, saying my friends didn’t know how to dye hair.

Got there a lil early, Sue’s co-worker was there with her kid and husband, some old lady was getting her hair curled in the oven, as I call those domes, and Sue’s daughter pranced around doing her hair. I sat for about 20 minutes, I was early, and she finally called me up. She started to mix the dye, and brought out this bowl of gunk. Sue started spongin’ my hair with the dye using this brush thing. It only took about 45 minutes, and I like the outcome. My new hair

It looks flippin awesome. I drove home, showed the parents then went to Brians. He thought it looked good, so did Lynn. We headed to my house because Brian didn’t believe what Mark said, so I also did my hair quick.

Brian got pissy, he got yelled at, I’ll leave it at that, haha.

So I got home and was bored, Steff signed on and I talked to her, we decided to meet up at her pal Monica’s house, the one who wants to use me in photographs. We walked all around downtown and Monica took pictures of Steff, and we all chatted. I also found out I am quite graceful when running across rocks.
