♥ a rather strange day.
I hate to be boring and just summarize my day, but I guess I need to debrief. I'm kind of at loose ends.
6:57 am: Lexi calls for the fourth time. I roll out of bed.
7:36 am: The panda and I arrive at school for registration. Stephanie has now called twice.
8:42 am: We finally escape from school. My ID photo is hideous.
8:54 am: Arrive at Evan's. Drive to Belmar for coffee.
9:45 am: Back at school to deliver coffee to Calvin, the love of our lives. Run into Matt.
10:36 am: Home again. Find swimsuit. Check makeup.
11:13 am: At the pool with Randal. Killer sunburn.
1:22 pm: Randal remembers something he has to do before work.
1:46 pm: My grandma calls, wondering where the hell I am. Shit, son.
2:34 pm: I arrive at my grandparents' house in Lakewood over an hour and a half late.
5:37 pm: My grandma and I have now gone to lunch and shopping, resulting in cute new clothes I totally don't deserve. We drink iced tea with my grandpa on the porch. I think about how happy they are, and how they met in high school and raised a nice family and are perfectly content with their lot in life, no matter how mundane it may seem at times. We talk about politics, European history, college, and the fact that Cam got to drink beer on the fishing trip. Not fair.
6:23 pm: Back at home. I order thongs that say "It's a panda eat panda world" for Lexi and me. My mom wants to go to dinner; she needs to nag me about something.
7:46 pm: At Chipotle with my mom. They're out of iced tea and I'm forced to mix lemonade with Sprite instead. I am still sunburned. Nagging ensues.
8:12 pm: I call Levi, who doesn't think his girlfriend will be psyched about smoking with us. We agree to meet for coffee in the morning. Randal is busy too. I pick up Calvin to meet Lexi and Matt at the mall.
9:04 pm: Matt and Lexi arrive at the Mills. We clean the ash out of Lexi's car and Calvin and I admire her new hookah, which we've named Melville. Evan calls. He wants Primetimes.
9:37 pm: Lexi and I wait with Calvin while Matt buys tobacco with his impressive fake ID at 7-11.
He admirably chooses grape and wildberry Primetimes because, much to my dismay, they're out of the yummy rum flavored ones. I break a grape Primetime trying to open it. Mocking ensues.
10:06 pm: We get to Evan's.
10:32 pm: Evan gets to Evan's. We're mad, but we quickly forget when he pulls out two bottles of vodka and a six-pack of Corona.
11:01 pm: Calvin sets up the hookah. Evan mixes me a drink, insisting there's vodka in it, but all I can taste is Crystal Lite.
11:12 pm: I get a text from Cera informing me that the captain of the cheerleading squad is currently attempting to hook up with my ex. Fearing that I might cry in front of Evan/Stifler, I leave.
11:47 pm: I pull into my garage, vowing I'll never drive to Lakewood and back three times in one day again. Levi calls, I cry about being a pathetic loser and he insists I'm not.
12:03 am: I read another chapter of Lolita and am glad I've never been considered a nymphet.
1:39 am: I finally fall asleep.
3:30 am: I wake up bathed in a cold sweat because I've just had a nightmare involving a lack of Barbies at the toy store and an extremely explicit encounter with certain Stifler-resembling parties. I'm highly disturbed.
4:27 am: I realize that the cheer captain looks like a troll, causing me to rest a little easier.
5:36 am: My mother leaves for work, meaning that the dog is now lonely and must sleep on my bed.
7:12 am: Good news: I weigh myself and discover that I may actually not qualify as a manatee.
I'm not sure what impacted me most profoundly yesterday: seeing a bunch of people for the first time in three months, wondering what was going to happen with Randal at the end of the summer, realizing that my grandparents are the happiest and most fulfilled people I know, deciding that I actually don't despise Evan in the least, or finding out that I really have no reason at all to be jealous of the hottest girl in the senior class.
In any case, I don't think I'm anywhere near ready for the summer to end.
6:57 am: Lexi calls for the fourth time. I roll out of bed.
