i drank tea today

so there's that. here are some other things:

i had an amazing time on the cape on friday. fun with family, best sleep i've had in months, or at least since the last time i was there, probably around four stick-to-your-ribs meals plus one to take home, and carolann didn't even go out so i didn't miss anything. next night, hilarious time. carolann got in a dryer, we hid from the cops in a basement, and then stumbled home stuffing our faces, giggling, and littering.

the next day, i went to see darjeeling lmtd. i am currently livid that i will never, nerver, neverinero get to make out with adrien brody. but the theater i went to is incredible, and getting a student membership there ($35/yr, $3 off every movie, so $4.25 matinees) is the closest i'm gonna get to the laurelhurst. then afterwards, we went to eat pizza and elliot smith was playing. i was already in a pretty nasty mood from all the stumbling the night before, and while the movie was pretty much nothing but enjoyable, i was still mildly irritated about everything and elliot smith just made me feel cuh-razy. so then carolann and i decided to pretend we were still in the movie and we followed some people around. it was pretty hard to be in a populated area because a million people were holding hands with a million other people and it made me FURIOUS. the first smells of fall - ozone, leaves, wool - were in the air, and spring be damned, this is the hardest time of year to be alone. i thought about jake for 24 hours, but feel better, less crazy, and actually a little bit rad today after listening to hot rocks and the village green preservation society for eight hours and crying a little.

today, i met james at a coffeehouse for some gossip and light reading, plus a bagel. after a while james had to go do whatever boys do and carolann came on by. we did a little heavier reading, about equal on the gossip, and then headed for an incredibly successful trip to old navy and target. i got this. it's a locket. i don't know what i'm going to put in there, but it's going to be awesome.

you got to see darjeeling limited already? man boston is so freaking fancy. i personally am on high craziness alert level red at the moment. oh and i meant to tell you: the ice cream wasn't mitchells it was from birite creamery, which is sort of new. maybe you should come visit right now and we can go get some.
