explosion day...
Jul. 5th, 2003 02:24 amjesus christ! i am in such a weird fucking mood right now...but i'll start the day off from the beginning...i had to wake up early to help with some cleaning and crap before the relatives got there for the 4th of july crap...slept for like an hour or so after that...then participated in that...well, after a little while i ended up the first of my moving into the new place...i just brought my movies and my video games over...but it's a start...my room is claimed...even though i saw a fucking wasp in it...it went up into the ceiling...something definately has to be done about that...me and wasps are not a good combination...especially on my half...
after that i went to Jacques and Amber's...Justin W. and Mary Beth were there...Justin H. showed up...he had the plan of going to his grandfather's condo by the river for the big downtown fireworks show...Jorden had previously mentioned going to that with Carrie so i called them and they agreed to meet us...however, security wouldn't let us park there 'cuz they already had reached their limit of cars so we had to drive around and find a place...which was miserable because of all the fucking traffic...the other car (Justin W., Mary Beth, Jacques, and Amber) gave up and went back home...we were able to find Jorden and Carrie...the fireworks show was really amusing...actually, it was mostly on the part of the overhead music/etc coming from Tom Lee Park...it was all a big splice of "patriotic" stuff and bad songs that either show a great enthusiasm for the u.s.a. or fireworks...at one point it had George W.'s big "we will find these terrorists and blah blah blah" speech followed right by "Dancin' in the Street"...then there was this huge monologue by The American Flag (i believe he said his real name was "Old Glory"...) i could describe this some, but nothing i say could even come close to displaying how ridiculous and absurd and frightening the whole thing was..."i am admired, loved, worshiped, feared, ... all around the world" it also claimed to be atop all the largest buildings in the world...i think the largest building in the world is in Seoul...or somewhere like that...i could be wrong, but i doubt the u.s. flag is up there...oh yea, it also claimed to have been trampled on, torn, etc "in countries [it had] yet to bring freedom to"...at least at one point it did claim to be arrogant...i wish i had a transcript...or recording...i could never do it the justice it does itself...or whatever...
after that we kind of sat around...some of Justin's relatives were there for the show, but the left immediately afterwards...then we went to R.P. Tracks...Justin blurted out that we should play truth or dare...which, uh, i fucking hate...of course, i knew one thing that he was going to bring up...so yea, i made out with Jorden again...Carrie too, but not for nearly as long...that whole thing was just weird and i feel stupid and awkward...i mean, the kiss was cool and all, but the whole truth or dare dynamic put me in a weird mood...but that aside, i just wish i could stop being such an ass around her...oh well...
