Day 70 - Babysit, Pearl

Today was a lazy, but very good day. I woke up around noon and just meandered about the house. I rented Breakfast Club a while back and I just got around to watching it this morning. Then I worked on the pile of terrible movies I bought last week. So pretty much all day I cleaned, babysat Liam, and watched Breakfast Club, Perfect Score, and My Boss’s Daughter.

And, being a Thursday, Jenn and I went to the Pearl. We met up with Josh who bought us Joose, but the AP was out of Red, so he got me orange. Honestly, the orange tasted like the smell of our laundry room the time Liam played outside in the rain with shoes and socks on, then the socks mildewed at the bottom of the laundry hamper without anyone noticing. I was gagging trying to drink it. I have never noticed before, but apparently Joose is an energy drink, so technically I shouldn’t be drinking it because of my heart. And Josh knows this so each time he gets it for me he gives me a little talk about being careful. “Ok thanks Dad.”

Jenn and I have hilarious arguments that emphasize how reckless we are. “I thought you were going to open it for me!” “We are at a red light do it yourself!!”

When we got to the Pearl we just drove around for a bit, and we found a building on fire, and that was exciting. Although immediately afterwards both of us wanted barbeque… Went inside the Pearl, and the first person I saw was Jason Wagner. Awesome. We just stopped talking a few months ago and that was kind of awkward. Right away we went out back and Josh came up to us holding a PBR. Except Josh is 19, with big black X’s on his hands. We were in the middle of telling him to put it down, when he got kicked out. Bye, Josh. There were so many random people at the Pearl tonight. I saw Andrew Harper, who I haven’t seen in a long time. And Kevin. “Oh my god Kate! I haven’t seen you in like 6 years! Are you single?!” Oh my. Haha.

Otherwise it was a very fun, but uneventful night.

Day 69 - Beach, Naps, Kickbacks, Steamworks

This morning I woke up quite early, compared to my horrendous sleep schedule lately. Evan picked me up and we headed to the beach. Yet again, it was a very relaxing morning. It felt super empty though. It was a morning of just floating around and talking about music. Although I was hit by a surprise wave and the sunglasses that wear daily were stolen off my face by the ocean. I was very sad. At one point later on we were just laying on the sand and talking. There was a lull in conversation and I looked over and his GameBoy had appeared out of no where, and he was playing Pokemon. That, right there, is why we are friends.

We had lunch at Ponte Vedra, then I headed home and took the longest nap. It was one of those crap naps that when you wake up you are burning up and sweaty and gross. Anyways, I woke up and started to watch Breakfast Club, but I ended up going to Kickbacks with Jenn. Then to Starbucks/Steamworks with Amber. For some reason, tonight was one of those nights where everything hilarious that could be said was said. Yet it could never be understood by anyone else as to why it was so funny.

Walking past Al’s: Me – “I hate walking past the windows at Al’s when there are people sitting here.”
Jenn – “I like it.”
Amber – “I think it’s so-so.”

Then I think the flannel shirt I was wearing tonight impaired my speech. I was talking like a redneck accidentally, then my completely sober speech was slurring so badly I sounded black, even using words such as “fiddy” instead of “fifty.”

Day 68 - Avenues, Town Center, Fancy Party

This morning Jenn and I went to the Avenues because Jenn needed new make up. that was uneventful for the most part. We did get pretzel dogs though, and that is always a highlight. (jennbundy: Me and @kgoreee eat pretzel dogs so often we have a dough-wrapping preference).

Tonight my dad and I went to Town Center and had dinner at Ted's. Then I went with Jenn to Courtney's friend Lauren's house. There was the most adorable gay couple there. Like, I wanted them for myself. They were so cute. I think every guy that was at her house that night was adorably gay. Matthew was feeling fancy so he was wearing his favorite 9 brooches all at once. He is adorable.

I had to be home tonight at one so I have been home, and video chatting with Luck, which is becoming part of my routine. I have to get to sleep early, since I have to be up early-ish in the morning to go to the beach with Evan. Hoorah.

Day 67 - Naps, Town Center, Kickbacks, HDD Frustration

This morning Jenn and I woke up and ate some Reeses for breakfast (!!!). Then she went home, and we made plans to go to the town center this afternoon. But you see the thing is, I was up until 5. And I fell back asleep. Until like, 5. So today was completely wasted. I ended up meeting Jenn at the town center once she left the doctor, and we walked around for a bit. I bought a new hard drive, since my old one is piece of crap. Jenn had plans to hang out with Mike, so I made plans to go to Rob's when I saw him at the Apple store.

I went home, grabbed my computer and old hard drive and went over to Rob and Clay's where we tried to salvage my hard drive. It ended up being the most frustrating thing ever. In the midst of all of it, we went to Kickbacks to get some dinner. I have realized that Twitter is far too present in my life, and that was just confirmed tonight. These thtree tweets were posted at the same tonight, without anyone mentioning that they were tweeting it:

kgoreee: Kickbacks with @omgitsrob and @clayhackett
omgitsrob: At kickbacks with @clayhackett and @kgoreee
clayhackett: At Kickbacks with @kgoreee, @omgitsrob, and @ashitloadofpeopleidontknow.

We all realized what happened, and it was awkward.

The Rob-and-Kate-isms were out in full force tonight. Hitting each other, dtealing each ther's silverwere, cracking my liscense in 2, and mixing his gross dinner into my pasta. I have always wondered what we look like to other people, and as we were leaving Jenn's friend Britney was sitting right across and had seen me. Great. That was funny.

I left Rob and Clay's shortly after getting back from Kickbacks. Clay was stumpted as to what was going on with my hard drives, so i just gave up. Currently it is 5 AM and I have just finished repairing my iTunes library, with some help from Luck. I am exhausted. this is two nights in a row I have been up until 5 AM.

Day 66 - Dr. Addo, MovieStop, Casbah, Steamworks

Today Dr. Addo ad his family drove up from West Palm to have lunch with us at Ponte Vedra, which is a tad crazy. I met Dr. Addo's wife and daughters today for the first time. My mom has had his youngest daughter as her Facebook profile picture for the longest time, and I have always thought that was kind of weird. Seeing as she is an African child and whatnot. But then I met these girls and I want to keep them for my own. And if you know me and my feelings towards children, you will know that that is really saying alot. My mom and I actually tried to kidnap Mari, but it didn't work.

This afternoon I pretty much just napped in Ponte Vedra. I wasn't feeling well most of the day. On our way home we took Marsha to the airport. We were on 295 heading towards the airport, and there was construction going on on the opposite side. then out of no where a shovel flew from the other side o the high way and hit the car. It came close to going through a window. It went under neath the car and somehow didn't cause any visible damage, and the car is running just fine. It was terrifying.

Tonight Jenn and I went to MovieStop, and somehow I have never been there before. I bought 8 movies for $22. It was awesome. Also, I decided to wear my Wayferer Readers out in public, and I looked quite ridiculous.

Afterwards we went to the Casbah and sat around there for a while. We got the delicious mango hookah, but nether of us wanted to smoke it. So it pretty much went untouched. We decided to go to Steamworks for a bit, but first we stopped by Adam's new house. Jenn and I hadn't been drinking at all, but the second Adam said, "Isaac is sleeping, so be really quiet," we both felt drunk. We got really giggly and clumsy walking through Adams's house. We ended up waking Isaac up anyways. Adam went to the AP for us and got me a Joose and then we headed to Steamworks. Amber and Haley and some other random people that I have no clue who they are but they follow me on witter were there. Well, more like one person. But I have no clue how she knows me, but there she is, creepin my tweets. Oh well. Steamworks was fun and we ended the night there, sitting outside for the most part.

Came home, had a drunk video chat with Luck, and fell asleep while videochatting. Awesome.

Day 65 - Drive Home

This morning I woke up automatically at 8:00. No way Jose. I went back to sleep and woke up a bit before noon. Before even getting out of bed I watched Night at the Roxbury. You really cant go wrong by starting your day off with some Haddaway. I finished packing up and left.

The second I got onto 95, my Sunpass fell off my windshield and scared me half to death. It has never fallen off before, and I feel like it knew I was leaving and would no longer have any use for it. "Alright that's it! I'm out!"

I had an uneventful drive up, which is good. I got home and had dinner and that was that.

Day 64 - Last Day of Work

Today was my last day of work. Finally. I have loved working here, and I am actually sad to leave. Although I am ready to get home and have a life again. We went out to lunch today with Denise, Carrie, Shelley, Julia, and Jessica. They gave me gifts and it was really sweet. I bought Denise a baby gift earlier in the week and I gave that to her today as I was leaving. Apparently it was her first baby gift and she cried. Then she cried again when she walked me out. My newsletter is being printed now and they are going to send me copied when it is all done.

I came home tonight, and finished packing. Tomorrow I am going to wake up whenever then drive north. No rush. Time to relax.
