Today I got back to school. I slept in this morning, got my Groucho's sandwich, bought a new adapter for my iPod, and hit the road.
I stopped by storage when I got into Madison Heights and I was going to get a bunch of stuff, but Megan and Jodie's things were on top. So I just grabbed my bed sheets, which were thankfully on top, and went to Walmart to buy towels and detergent.
Got to school, unpacked, and cried.
I dont want to be here.

Day 97 - Horrible Day
Today was terrible. So. Terrible.
I slept in, nice and late. Got up, packed my car, said bye to my mom, had lunch with my dad, and drove to Arlington. When I was leaving Arlington I got gas before starting the drove to Columbia, and there was this old man in the store. Apparently he had ought a prepaid phone there earlier today, and it still was not working. The woman told him that sometimes it takes a few hours to activate. So then this little old man with a cane threw the phone, breaking it to a bunch of little pieces. Then he took the largest chunk, went outside, and ran it over with his car as he was leaving. Aaaalright.
After I got gas I began the drove to Columbia. It was completely uneventful until I was an hour away from Columbia. I had been listening to an audio book and the CD played stopped working. I stopped, turned my car off and on and it was still acting up. I couldn’t switch to my iPod since the adapter for that is broken as well. Then the whole entertainment console shut off. The screen is black, with little green lines running down it. The CD player still wont work, but the radio is working, although I cant see the screen to see what channel I am on, or what the temp is set at. So that put a major damper on the last hour of my ride, since I hate the radio more than anything.
I got to the hotel, ready to put my stuff down and go get a Groucho’s sandwich. But the hotel lost my reservation. I had to sit there forever while they sorted it out, and I got hungrier and hungrier. Finally they figured it out and I walked to Groucho’s. Only to find it closed. Seriously, there were tears. I have been wanting Groucho’s all summer, and it was closed. It doesn’t open until 11 tomorrow, and I was going to leave at around 10. Bt now I think I will stick around to get lunch.
Then I left, walked back to my car, and drove to Chickfila. That was closed too. It is Wednesday. What the hell. Finally settled on McDonalds. Yuck. I have been sitting in this damn hotel room all night, on my old MySpace. When I was sifting through the 9,000 some odd friends on that one, I found 3 or 4 people using my pictures as their own, and a bunch of fakes of Jamie XTC. I clocked on those, because they are always hilarious, and for a good amount of them, I was in the top friends. What the fuck. I started clicking on a lot of younger “scene” girls MySpaces, and I was in the top friends of so many people I don’t know. It is so creepy. I deleted a good amount of them. Seriously, what the hell. I am not that interesting. Pick someone else to creep up on.
Tomorrow I will be back at Sweet Briar. Summer is over. What will happen to my blog?

Day 95 - Liam, Corbett
Today was my second to last day at home. I babysat Liam all day, and we had a lot of fun. We went to Chamblins to take in some books, and then we met up with Corbett for lunch at Chickfila. Yum. Liam and I went to Jungle Quest this afternoon, and that was so much fun. I have never been there but he goes a lot. It is mainly for kids so I was given funny looks. I didn’t care. I had so much fun hanging out with Liam. We went rock climbing and zip lining and whatnot. There was this little boy who was rock climbing with us, and I fell in love. His name was Alex and he is 6. He would race Liam and I to the top of the rock wall and even did it blindfolded with us. He was so cute. I wanted to tell hi parents I would be willing to babysit anytime but he disappeared while I was blindfolded at the rock wall. And that is saying a lot, coming from me. I hate children. But he was one of the most adorable things ever.
I spent the rest of the day packing. The End.

Day 94 - Rob, Inksmith, Heidi Montag, District 9, Little Sister
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 92 - Chrysler, Susan
This morning we woke up and first thing I called Apple to figure out what is going on with Jenn’s computer. The first woman we talked to had a serious attitude problem, and was not listening to me whenever I explained the issue. I feel like she finally got frustrated when I was equally rude to me, as she hung up. We called back and got a different woman, who was very nice, but dumb as a brick. So in the end we figured nothing out.
We got dressed and went to the Chrysler. On the way we were hungry so we caved and went to McDonalds for a delicious happy meal. As we were leaving we both turned to throw away our trash, and sitting right there was the most hilarious yet adorable sight I have ever seen. A homeless looking black man, eating a vanilla ice cream cone. He stopped dead when we turned, and his face looked like he had been caught doing something wrong, yet to innocent at the same time. And there was ice cream on his mouth, in his beard, and on his nose. It was the most adorable thing I have ever seen. I was laughing so hard I had to run outside and spit out the sip of soda I had taken before I turned and saw him. It was adorable.
We got to the museum and it was amazing. There was an Egyptian exhibit, amazing contemporary art, Japanese prints, and so much more. I loved the Chrysler.
Tonight Jenn and I went to Susan’s house for dinner. Ashley was supposed to come but she didn’t feel well. Susan and her daughters are so sweet. And I am really glad that Jenn gets along with them so well. Spending time with Jenn and her dad and Susan has made me realize how crappy my relationship with my dad is. Jenn and her dad are best friends, and Susan texts Jenn just to say hello. I didn’t even have my dad’s fiancé’s number until recently, and when I called her trying to find my dad she had no clue who I was, even after I said “Its Kate.” Ugh. Oh well.
