Hurm. Haven't had too much time for RP-ing lately. This last week has been pretty crazy. It's like I suddenly have a life and stuff. I wonder how that happened? Let's see if I can recap the fun things.
Last Saturday I went on another morning hike with my Dad, and we stopped halfway up to go up this fisherman's trail my dad had found the first time he'd been up there. It was a bit of a scramble, but at the top where these two absolutely
gorgeous blue and green lakes. They were surrounded by these gigantic cliffs, there were fish swimming around, and the surface of the water sparkled in the sunlight. It was almost
cheesily poetic. Really quiet up there, too. So worth the climb. Gotta turn right at the waterfall to get there, just like any good adventurer would do.
The next day I got together with Kiley, Sean, and Megan for the first time in what seems like
ages. Finally got a hold of that Party City application and then we went down to Broadway to frolic with the fabulous. My friends all made me try on a bunch of gothic dresses and stuff at Metro, but I ended up feeling really pretty because they kept complimenting me akdjfalksdjfa. I wish I had the money to wear those kinds of clothes all the time. They're going to get me this short dress for Christmas. I'll have something to wear that goes above my knees, good gravy.
And on Monday I did important things... Like more job stuff, catching up on college info... I got my webcomic site up (
here!) but like, nothing is linked up yet, so. I should be able to get the first page (cover page, lol) done by Monday, since I don't have any dog-sitting to do this weekend. Yay, artsy times! I hope to have the entire thing in some sort of working order by then, I just have to sit down and do it.
Spent the last two days doing construction work with my dad. He's paying me for being his assistant, which is
really nice. I would have done it for free since he needs the hand and it feels weird to get paid for something dad set up like that... But... I won't lie, I need the money right now. The fact that my school is taking foreeeever to respond to my loan request is worrying. BUT YES, construction. I've learned all sorts of stuff, like how to wire things under a house and how to install a door, frame and all. Though, nothing quite brings out the zest for life like a face full of itchy insulation.
Yesterday I got to hang out with the Cute Boy and all of his nerdy roomies. Megan and her boyfriend came over too, and we all played Rock Band. I can almost do bass on medium now. I can mic on hard pretty well, but I'm still easy on drums and guitar. I'll climb the skill ladder eventually... But I need to learn more songs. I got to sing Ballroom Blitz, though. That filled me with glee. Cute Boy continues to be cute, and I'm glad he still doesn't think I'm a total weirdo.
Whoa, long summary. But yeah, that's my life. Might go to a sleepover Saturday night to celebrate Sean getting his own apartment, but I have a game on Sunday and I have quite a few things I need to get done before that... Eeeeh, I have to find that balance again. Randomly, I wanted my DOGS moodtheme back, so there. And I just took a shower, and I feel all clean, but I know I'm just going to get all dirty and dusty and gross again in eight hours. S-Sob.
AND NOW, I need sleep. Today it occurred to me that six hours a night isn't actually healthy. :|b
