This morning Rob and I went to lunch (this morning?) at the Loop. As usual. He was going to get a tattoo today, and Eddy was going to do it, although Mike was using the table at Inksmith so we couldn’t. And Rob wanted white ink and Eddy didn’t think Rob fully understood what white ink looks like, but he did. Oh well. We left Inksmith, and went to Starbucks then his apartment. Where we beat each other up and read Heidi Montag’s terrible interview with Spencer in PlayBoy. The pictures were hilarious. I love her, just because I love to hate her so much. They are a weird group.
Once I got home I went with my mom and Liam to Publix, where I was beat up again, this time by Mikey and Liam who tag teamed me in the freezer aisle. I am going to have intense bruises on my arms tomorrow. The one that is already showing is from when I jumped onto Mikey to hug him and my arm hit his nose. Already tender and blue. Oh well.
Tonight I met Christina, my little sister for school. We met up at Starbucks in San Marco and just talked about school and Jacksonville and whatnot. We seem to be really similar and I m excited about this.
After I left San Marco I drove to Tinseltown and met up with Kevin and we saw District 9. I have heard so much about it being one of the most amazing movies ever, but I thought it was just really weird. I didn’t see how it was so amazing. It was alright. Once we left the theater we sat on my car and talked, and laughed at all of the hilariously awkward couples in the parking lot until we realized we were a part of it. There were these two horribly annoying girls running through the parking lot, obviously hiding from someone. They were running and yelling and being really obnoxious. Kevin wanted to shoot them with his paint ball gun. I encouraged him to do so, but he wouldn’t. Finally we realized that they were the third and fourth wheels on their friends date, and turned out it was this girl’s first date with this guy. It was a hilarious situation to watch unfold. We eventually left and got Icee’s. I usually don’t like having more than one Icee flavor at once, but Kevin made the most magical concoction. It was delicious. We went back to the Tinseltown parking lot so he could get his car. We sat there and talked, and we both fell asleep in my car. Not for very long, but it happened. I was exhausted.

Day 81 - Day of Adventures with Jenn
Today was Jenn's first full day home. We woke up early this morning (well, early for me) and went to the Fox for breakfast. Honestly, I am the worst Ortegro ever. This morning was the third time I have been to the Fox. That is just shameful. We went from the Fox to the town center, where pretty much all we managed to do was walk around Urban and go to Barnes and Noble. At Barnes and Noble I bought the Tao Te Ching and the Hua Hu Ching. I am excited to start reading those. The guy that was at Barnes and Noble the other night when I was there with Emma was there again, and we talked about Chamblins some more.
So after all that talk about Chamblins, Jenn and I headed to the new Chamblins downtown. I got even more Taoism books, including the Tao of Pooh, which explains Taoism using all of the characters from Winnie the Pooh. I feel like its a good starting point to getting into all of this Taoism business.
Then this afternoon Jenn and I decided to go rock climbing. but first we went to the tax collectors office to get her tag renewed, and we were there for about an hour. In that time I was able to read about half of the Tao of Pooh. So far its really good and very helpful. There were some of the sketchiest people ever at the tax collector's office. this one guy that came in had a really old slipknot shirt on that was way too short, and it hit about an inch above his waistline, suspenders, and Levi's. He looked like a rapist. And his butt was hanging out of his pants.
Finally we got to the Y, and we had to sign up for rock climbing classes since either of us were certified for that location. So about an hour later, we had learned how to tie all the knots and do the self-belays, then we asked our instructor if we could just do the auto-belays. Apparently we wasted $10, and an hour of our time and his time. Oops. Anyways climbing was a lot of fun. Jenn just went last week in Colorado, but I haven't done it in years. Although apparnelty I am scared of haights and I didn't really know it until I was half way up the wall. I was terrified that my belay wouldn't catch as I started to repel each time so that was fun. Until I got a little too confident in the belay and started flinging myself off the wall and flying about all willy-nilly. I got in trouble. Oh well. After a few hours of climbing, we went to the San Marco Loop for dinner. It was the first thing I had eaten since the Fox and I was about to just drop. Starved.
We got back to my house and started to watch the Girl with the Pearl Earring. Of course I fell asleep one minute into it and woke up right at the end. Oh well. Jenn and I were both hungry yet again, so we decided to get up and go to Kickbacks. We got there at about 10:30, and Rob and Clay and Clay were already there. Clay and I have been barely missing each other every time I go. I leave, then Clay tweets about getting there. So for once we were there at the same time. A bit after we got there, Eddy walked in so Jenn and I hung out with him. Just a few minutes later a fight broke out. I have never seen a fight at Kickbacks before. This woman started yelling and there were chairs in the air. It was crazy. The police came a bit later and that was that. Jenn and I just sat there and Eddy ate dinner. Then Jenn and I decided to get the brownie bits. They come with chocolate dipping sauce, which all it is is Hershey's syrup. So after we ate the brownies, Jenn went to town on the chocolate sauce with her straw while Eddy and I watched and laughed. Once she finished that one, a waiter who wasn't even ours brought her another. She ate that one as well.
The three of us left Kickbacks and went to Shanty Town, since it was Metal Mondays. I have never been to Shanty Town before, and I was very glad Eddy was with us. We followed him there and the whole way there and I was thinking "where the hellll is he taking usssssss." It was like off 8th street but still downtown. It was in a perfectly fine area, but it was late and I doubt I would have wanted to be there if it was just Jenn and I. thankful for Eddy. So we just hung out there, listened to music and talked.
Came home. Now it is time to go to sleep. I feel like today lasted 3 days instead of one. It was a very good day.
I can't feel my arms.
