Thursday, August 04, 2005 almost finished
Soon some friends are going to take the "pick my carless ass up" challenge and take Tracy and I to Roller Derby, and after that, it's time to show people what it looks like when a girl falls down. I have nothing but dertermination and gusto, nothing including balance. I get by, though. I am a trooper. I think my friend might be bringing me padding, which has been a long time overdue.
My hair looks like Robert Smith's today, if Robert Smith had cheerful highlights. This is what comes of sleeping on it when it's wet. I'd imagine I'll intimidate my fellow roller girls. They'll be like, "Look at her hair! She has nothing to lose, and she makes her own rules."
Last night a band from West Virginia was staying in the house, and they loved our city ways, and they kept saying that Baltimore was a great town. They're right, of course, but they came to the decision pretty quickly. They wrote a very nice note when they left, and spelled everyone's name correctly.
My summer housemate's little sister just came and gave me a seashell from Assateague. One of my other housemates only refers to that place as "Island of the Ponies," and when we first mentioned it to him, he thought we were making it up to tease him. I haven't been in a couple years, but I told him that the last time I'd gone, I'd seen a wild pony eating garbage from a garbage can, and his face lit up, but you could see the war inside him, and he said I was just telling him what he wanted to hear. I guess it does sound a little implausible.
Content challenge is nearly over. I should probably think of a grand finale for tomorrow, but I don't know if that's my style. I need to think of something else to do, too, once the challenge is over. I may have to plan the August "drink in the park" meet up, or maybe I'll devote myself to doing productive things to improve my life. Or I may sniff glue. posted by Frenz | 8/04/2005 05:58:00 PM
