Today, I woke up at around seven to various things. First, the dog wanted out. Then, Lizz's alarm went off. And a bunch of other things, like Holly yelling and my dog barking. But eventually I fell asleep until my alarm went off at ten. Then I took a shower. What an exciting morning.
But after I got up, I ran to the bank to deposit Holly's first paycheck. Hooray for Holly! Now she has no excuse to not pay me back the money she owes me! Yay!
After the bank, I came home and hung out for a little while. Then we went to Tori's. And we watched NCIS. This kid had a bomb strapped to him, and he was being controlled by some creepy guys in a van. Only the end was stupid, because they found his mother that was supposedly dead, AND THEY DIDN'T EXPLAIN WHERE SHE WAS. It really bothered me, so I decided to make a list of things she could have been doing when she was "dead." Enjoy.
-Learning to drive a jet ski so she could surprise her family with her new skill.
-With her alternate family, in which she was the husband.
-Raising a family of ducks.
-Living in disguise as a moose.
-Training as a under cover agent and completing a secret mission.
-Becoming a vampire.
-Hiding her face in shame for her failed boat antics (she "died" in a boat crash).
-Finishing college in secret.
-Following her dream of becoming a princess.
-Having an affair, then having a secret baby and putting it up for adoption.
-Hiding from the cops for a parking ticket.
So there's that.
Eventually, we went to NCTC with Tori's cousin Cocoa so Tori could register and I could ask a couple of questions. I found out a lot, and started planning my schedule. Also, I got a loan. That's pretty good, too, because that means I can pay for school. Hooray!
After we got back to my house, we did nothing except eat potato salad and watch TV until my parents got home. My mom cooked dinner tonight, and after we ate, my dad and I went to Walgreens to get my meningitis shot. We found out that our medical insurance covered the entire shot (at least for now) and the lady took me back to the little room to stab me with a needle. My dad insisted on coming with me just so he could make fun of me. Then, after the lady gave me the super fast shot, he decided the best thing to do would be to backhand me in it. He even asked which arm it was in before he did it, just to clarify that he would hit the right one. Jerk. Good thing it didn't hurt.
Also, my arms hurt, but not because of the shot. It's because when you're tubing, you have to hold onto the tube for dear life. When the boat starts moving, you have to lift up the front of the tube, or else the weight of the people on it will drag it underwater. Then when the boat slows down really fast, you have to push up on the handles really hard so that you don't fly forward off of the tube. So my arms are sore, and my elbows are missing skin. And I'm sun burnt. BUT IT WAS SO WORTH IT. But my eye isn't black from where Tori accidentally elbowed me in the face, so at least there's that.
Today was pretty good. My dog hasn't seemed to have any more trouble (knock on wood). So I'm extremely thankful for that. But I'm still worried about him. I hope he's okay. I really do. He is a wonderful dog.
But for now, everything is in order.
"Remember how we used to say we couldn't wait till tomorrow for a brand new day."
