Unnatural Love

... is what i have for roller coasters. The first ride we went on, i was freaked out throughout the first drop, then i basically proceeded to grin for the rest of the day. Even though i would get about 15 seconds of adrenaline/fear before every ride, that dissapated rather quickly. it was a great day. jenn and i went on every roller coaster that was open except for Superman and Deja Vu, cuz i don't like the dropping for the sake of dropping shit. but it was awesome. and we got the world's best slushies, seriously, so good- i went back and bought another one. totally worth the 5 bucks i paid for it. they had good sandwiches, too, according to jennifer. annnnnd... we failed at firing water cannons at anyone, i got a little sun, and a characature by the strangest man alive. not really, but he was pretty strange. and he made my face look *long,* which no one has ever done before. anyway, it was good fun. and we didn't even get lost on the freeways. and then we were so tired and not hungry when we got back that we decided not to go out to dinner. i do still feel kind of sticky. oh, and we got temporary air-brush-on tatoos. they're cool. jenn got a flower design, and i got a string of elephants. very cool. we tried to get the same kind of tattoos at Concert on the Lawn this summer, but the people kept leaving, so it was nice to finally do that. Oh, and i'm sleeping on a deflated air mattress. They lost the cap. We tried duct-taping it closed, but it was completely deflated by morning, which i was kind of expecting.

ohk. another entry sometime soon on the joys of 38 hour long train rides down the pacific coast.

thin mints are, always and forever, the best girl scout cookie

they really are. so tasty. specially with milk.

this weekend has been semi-productive. did some french homework, which was good, but really have done much else school-wise. but i did finally make plans/reservations to go see jennifer during spring break. yay for six flags! and because its uber-expensive to fly there, i'm only flying one way.... i'm taking the train on the way down! cheap! and fun! i like trains! so what if it'll take me like 35 hours to get there! if anyone knows how to sit on their ass for that long, its me! i actually am really excited about it. i do like trains a lot.

and my mother had her show down in homer, and that went well, so i'm happy for her. her stuff is really neat, even if its not very commercial. and full of strange references to monty python, etc.

and i did laundry today! yay for laundry! clean clothes are good!
