Far too much driving and Damn Yankees

Yeasterday started bright and early yesterday, or should I say dark adn early, seeing as I was awake by 5am and out of bed by 6am because my body seems to think waking me up early on a weekend is hilarious! SO I managed to finished somethings I needed to mail out before John showed up anyways. My dad called me as I was on my way out the door to the Post Office. WE talked as he drove to one of his conventions and he demanded I talk to my brother because he apparently didn't get to play in the game they had the night before and was super upset about it and he wont listen to anyone else but me... which was news to me. But I called him anyway, he seemed perfectly fine. We talked forever, which is amazing because we dont ever talk in person or online. :P Go figure. But it was cool. We might take a cooking class together next summer! That would be hilarious.

Then John drove out to see me yesterday. I showed him my school, and my boat house. The Japanese Garden happens to be closed saturdays and sundays only, so we didn't get to feed the Koi. After I subjected him to all the photos on my computer for an hour or 2 we split for his aunts house, so I got to met them. Very differnt from the family I'm used to dealing with, but in a good way. The we went to Erik's house while he had to change and sat with Erik's family for a while, which was way entertaining. They were watching the Vintriliquest Comedian. All of them, together while making dinner. I was laughing to myself because I can never see my brother and I just doing things in the kitchen to help out with a meal, none-the-less for more than just ourselves and possibly our dad. Expecially while watching a comedian and enjoying ourselves. :P Funny, because I actually talked to my brother that morning about taking a "culinary" class next summer together. WE are super awesome. Hehehe... subjecting the world to our cooking collectivly is beyond commons ense... I feel sorry for the shumck who has to eat what we concoct. Heeheehee...

Then we went and met up with Chris and Alicia at Chris' house, where he dressed in his new cloths(not black!) and then had a fashion shoot with his family, both his sisters were entertaining because they were making him pose. Another things I simply cannot see my brother doing.... but there's no need really because my mom and I already shop for all his cloths. Then we all piled into Chris' car and sped off for the play, and boy was that a great car ride. Complete with missed Wendy's and John and I pointing everything out to each other... we entertain ourselves nicely. :P

Got to the play, which was great. It was called Damn Yankees, obviously about baseball. Comedy/love story/deal with the devil kinda deal. It was way cool. Way funny. I managed to point out that if Lola was only 173 years old, how could she have know Hercules... or Atilla the Hun... or whoever historical figure she said she suduced? I'm pretty good at catching inconsistencies in stories. What can I say, it's a gift, and bugs the crap out of John. :D So after we enjoyed the play, which we did because it was super cool, we left. Once we got in the car we talked about who everyone in there besides us were over 50 years old... which I had also pointed out during the intermission, but was now free to say it as loud as I wanted in the confines of Chris' car. We had lotsa laughs on the ride to the play and back, found out Alicia and I have a lot of similarities. While the boys had their geek talk we couldn't understand, we managed to talked some incoherent girl talk to confuse them as well. You, plus sign, Me, equal sign, Us! hehehehe... they just dont know. We also had a moment of liked-mindedness when she and I both said the same thing at the saem time, don't remember what it was, but we thought it was funny and they boys just didn't get it.

When we got back to Chris' house his fmaily shoved more cookies down our throats(not complaining...:) and then the boys were nice enough to wake up on of Chris' sleeping sisters. All the new families I've been meeting are way awesome, they never cease to make me giggle. Then John and I took the ride of doom, because it was around 12:30 when we left Chris' house for Long Beach, and I'd been up since 5. 19 hours of conciousness! \/\/007! We had some fun swerves on the way back to my appartment, with some entertaining music, at least to me. :) And the night wouldn't be complete without one of us hanging around unitl 2:30-3 in the morning before heading home, except that John's home was an hour away... a little farther than usual. I feel slightly bad because he's moving into his dorms today and probably didn't get to his place and asleep until 3:30-4:30, somewhere in there. A long say he has ahead of him today.... and he was awake before me too. Actually, he's probably on his way/already at his dorms now.

I had a really fun day yesterday, expecially after my errand running day and now my homework day(today!) Sometimes, school sucks. :/
