YaYa
So, this evening. Alex and I are pacing about, because we had nothing to do. Alex is wearing his General Genghis Kahn Schmitz uniform, complete with Australian safari hat and pink medals of honor. We were approaching the end of the hallway when his face just lights up. "There's one of those awkward middle school dances tonight!" Of course, I'm interested. We tested the door for any locking mechanisms, assured ourselves that it was okay to be walking about in costume, with a mic on, and ventured into the middle school. We peered into the gym, expecting to find hos in training, and the usual separate but equal conditions for boys and girls. No dice. We went back into the dark hallways behind the stage disheartened, but with hope for the future. I will not divulge our plans, but they are BIG!
After he told me "the craziest thing he's ever done," we wondered what might be residing in the custodial closet. Even though the plans that we had for tomarrow are much more risky than just stepping into a closet, Alex was flipping out. I just walked in and started going through stuff and he was like jumping up and down, wanting me to come out so we wouldn't look suspicious. We were the only living souls in that hallway. Hopefully, he will not disappoint tomarrow.
Previously, i had been walking down the back halls by the new gym with Vincent Covatto. We were walking in perfect sync, moving our knees as little as possible. We were wearing the same type of shoes, and our footsteps resonated in the empty hallway in a way that almost divine. It was the most calm and peaceful 60 seconds I've had in a long time. Something about it was just...ahhhhh.
After the performance, I went to Yaya's with Sarah-Jane, Matt, Jimmy, Sarah ElHousani, Toni, and Tiffany and her boyfriend. We had a raucus time, praising the slaw, doing the hustle in the middle of the restuarant (much to the pleasure of the adults), and drinking two pitchers of Shirle Temples. It was a grand, grand time. The soundtrack was perfectly upbeat and everyone was singing and spontaneously breaking into dance. I loved it.
Other happy moments today included:
-Dave Melgar coming to sit with us in lunch!
-Carissa skipping studyhall to have lunch with us!
-Alex's "physical world" presentation
-my "physical world" presentation...entirely because I got to talk about Quality Markets
-Gallagher said I could be an amazing spiker (volleyball) if I only realized my potential
-"Soooold. SoooOOOoold. SooOOOooold.-OooooOOOOH, HorTON!-SooooOOOooold."
Jimmy Weatherston...sing me to sleep. Every night.
Things I Have to Be Greatful For:
1. Jacob/BSP..all they encompass. You all know.
2. Carissa's ridiculous ability to laugh at herself
3. The fact that people treat me with respect even though I dont deserve it
4. Zachary Robert Zarbo. I love you so much, darlin. I miss you like a hog misses his slop, but I you can't believe the immense joy that reenacting "Viral Transfer Complete" over dinner this evening filled me with. Thank you so much for everything you ever did to make me laugh. Including, but not limited to, "Core Meltdown in 5...4....3...2...1...", "Puhthetic.", "Overdrive!", and "Robu-hahahahahahaha!"
Things I'm Looking Forward To:
1. Seeing Jacob Matthew Fox, Katherine E. Peruzzini, and Julia E. Broman
2. Seeing Nick Hahn
3. My and Alex's PLANS
4. Seeing Carissa
5. Winter Ball
6. RRR Part 2
I'm freezing, full, and fatigued. Time for a bit of a respite.
