Hello hello

uggghhhh

I just looked at the photos of you two on faaaacebook. The uggghhh means I am jeaalous and misssss you guys so much. Like I keep saying, it just better be fucking worth it (aka you guys need to be having a REALLY fucking awesome cultural experience in order for me to feel so lousy).

So yesterday was Halloween. Nick at first was like "I don't think I'm going to go out. I might have one beer at home. I have class at 8:30 tomorrow." Too bad for his internal thought that he decided to ingest some shrooms and go out to the bars instead. I'm getting ahead of myself. We decided to have people over, a non-party as we are calling them these days after the whole court issue. Jen Mary Andrew Walker came over and then a slew of Robins friends (who are pretty cool, they're not really the crazy ones like Jordan, Autumn, etc). I actually really wanted Sam (Kingman) to come over because I think he's cool and he's soooo nice (gave me a ride home from school a couple weeks ago, we ended up taking a detour and did some shopping, bought the same jackets, how cute) but he was a party (I mean non party) pooper. I made Walker a Halloween themed cake and we all sat around and drank and danced to Nicks crazy music (it goes from instrumental to folk to techno... that British chick really had the "house-music" influence on him) including SEVEN which was of course awesome and then at eleven we flushed everyone out (turned out the lights, locked the door, said "you don't have to go home but you cant stay he-re!" a couple times). Oh yeah and Nick ate some mushrooms, which he and Robin have been doing quite a bit lately. I came home from school the other day to find them frying on the couch. They had just gotten back from, of course, the arboretum. They took a bunch of pictures which, hilariously enough, ended up being blurry scenic shots of wet mooshy fall leaves, cigarette butts, and each others shoes/legs. It looked like a five-year old got his hands on Nicks camera. Back to last night- we went to the Shoe for a spell, Rumors for a spell (where I ran into Bell, Ray, Mo, and Steve which was weird because Bell can be really inappropriate sometimes - she told me that I didn't miss out on anything when Mitch and I didn't go to Rumors on Saturday night because, and I quote, "Sex is way better." How inappropriate is that?!?!), and then Caps for a spell, which is where Nick really started tweaking out. I remember at one point him saying in a really excited high pitched voice, with a shit-eating grin on his face, "Why did I take psychedelic drugs on Halloween!?!?!" And that was pretty much the end of the night. I don't know if he made it home but I think I saw his pants on the kitchen floor this morning.

I get paid on Monday (an estimated $380 after taxes... maybe more if I got my monthly 25-cent raise. Hell yeah!) and all I can think about is depositing that check and buying some beef stock, a bottle of wine, a hunk of lamb, some veggies, and then braising the shit outta that lamb. It's going to taste SO. FUCKING. GOOD. and it will also make the house smell RIDICULOUSLY amazing, and it might even heat the house a bit too boot. I've been reading this book about food/cooking/working in the kitchen of a fancy restaurant and my saliva has multiplied by like twenty. I drool so much. So that's why I'm really excited about getting paid.

I've decided to skip class because someones doing a presentation (lame). Instead I'm going to go home and watch American Psycho (I'm going to do Christian Bale so hard one of these days) on the couch with a shit tone of blankets (it's colder inside than it is outside) and a pot of tea. Maybe mull some wine. But FIRST I'm going to watch the Office online. See ya!

E, the frying story was hilarious. i can ALMOST imagine the blurry 5 yr old pics that nick and robin took. first of all holy shit BELL is such a twat for saying that. that is SO inappropriate. jesus, how can she think that is anywhere near ok? and why is she in bellingham, isnt she graduated? did she pull a mary too? ew. anyways. i thought a lot of about halloween in belligham last week mainly because so many GD people were posting pictures on the hour, but more importantly because we've had some really fun years/ ridiculous memories aka jake and wyatt soph year. ohhhhhh wyattttt. silly island boys.
