OMG–Saturday was SO fun, Daniela and I went to the Elk Valley Casino–it was SO gaudy, garish, and white trash. We loved it. We gambled away a grand total of twenty-seven dollars, then went and rented Casablanca (I’d never seen it). Then I went to sleep on her couch, her mom was nice and let me stay over. Much fun. Unfortunately I didn’t get my lab write-ups done–but I need to ask the teacher a few questions before I can start (that’s my current excuse). We saw that guy Jeff at the casino, he was at the blackjack tables, but couldn’t leave with us to go see Casablanca because he had to “meet someone at twelve.” The rest of the night we kept brainstorming on what it could be. We wanted to play blackjack with him, but we didn’t know where to get chips. Oh, and we saw this lady that’s in our Government class. It was weird, but so fun.
Sunday I spent with Jordan, he came over to Daniela’s house looking for me (how cute) and we went out to my house. Jordan and I washed each others’ cars, and I learned how to parallel park with this thing my dad set up with gates. We washed Lisa’s car too out of boredom. Royce called, and we ended up hanging out with him and this friend of his, Justin. (I think his name was Justin). We went to Endert’s beach and hiked up the creek (literally). We first went down to this waterfall thing, then there was this tunnel with ledges on the side so we walked down the ledge through the tunnel. We then walked down the creek until we could get back up to the trail to get our shoes. We went down to the creek bed and walked up it until we got to this dam Jordan and Kevin had built a while ago. That took a while. Royce looked REALLY cute, but somebody had really bad BO. I don’t know whether it was him or his friend. I really wanted to take off my pants and dive into this pool thing, but I didn’t know the Justin kid so I felt uncomfortable. We dropped them off, and then Jordan and I went back to my house becuase my dad was going for groceries at four. Instead, he told us he was going to wait until after dinner. Jordan stayed for dinner, and we had fun. I washed the dishes, then I drove us into town (with my stereo on) to get groceries. I got q-tips and rubbing alcohol (necessities) and lots of food.
We went home, I put away the groceries, then Jordan and I went and played Monopoly for like three hours. I was constantly in debt through the whole game, but through owning the Boardwalk and Park Place with three houses on them I won. Jordan only bought three properties. How lame. I had enough money in properties to cough up $1000 and have four houses not mortgaged, but when he had to pay my $1200 rent on Park Place he could only come up with $800 with $300 of it cash and mortgaging all the properties (three) he had.
He went home, then I went out and watched Duckman (I LOVE THAT SHOW) until twelve while eating an apple with Swiss cheese (glorious) while doing so. Talked to Charley finally, he isn’t mad at me he just hasn’t been online much, then I went to bed. Woke up, got ready, Jordan picked me up, we stopped at Wal-Mart for me to get a binder for my prints, and then he dropped me off. I was transferring my prints to the print binder when Mike Ovick came into the Drift Office, that was weird, but I realized that I made an appointment to get interrogated by the human resources people. I checked my binder, and it was at 11:30. Checked the clock: 11:29. So I crammed everything in my backpack and went over to the office, but Throgmorton was walking around. They’d converted the distance learning room into an impromptu interrogation room. I felt like saying “where’s the big bright light to shine in my face?” That was very un-fun. I just told the truth–what else was there to tell? They were assuming I knew nothing about anything and were so leading me. They’re all “I hear you guys go on field trips and stuff–one to Sacramento, one to San Fransisco–and of course I had to speak up and say in the manufactured pause “Yeah, I went on the San Fransisco trip.” and then the fake “Really….” So lame. The whole interrogation episode really taints all the fun of the San Fransisco trip. Oh well–I guess we can’t all move away to Mendocino.
Oh, another development in the “I make more enemies than friends” chronicle is Liz. Daniela left an accidentally signed note on Liz’s open diary criticizing her, and now Liz knows that we don’t like her. I’m kind of embarassed about the episode, but the post Daniela criticized (Liz insinuating the reason she fails classes is because teachers like her boobs) was so downright insane, I can’t feel bad. Oh well. Must return to the Drift Office and check my Neopets account.
