racoons, sun and random thoughts about my social life

2002-06-17


i am now 100% sure that my alarm clock is evil. ok, let's forget about the fact that it's probably in an alarm clock's nature to be evil... either it forces me to turn it off while i'm still more or less asleep and continue sleeping OR it never goes off in the first place. i don't know. fact is: i overslept today. the whole beginning of the day was just SO wrong. i had set my alarm to 9am so i could pick sabrina up in time. but when i woke up this morning and thought, i could just roll to the other site and fall asleep again and then looked at the clock, it was 10.30am. and i couldn't remember hearing the alarm, leave alone turn it off. i was really pretty angry at the thing but then i looked at its cute eyes (it's a little chicken one) and couldn't be angry, anymore. so i was angry at myself. fortunately, that didn't last long, either because just when i came out of my room, i noticed that my mom was gone and her bag was gone, too, which could only mean that she went shopping...going by car. so, i had to wait for her til 11.10am to get home. so, i was angry at her! hehe.
anyway, i somehow managed to get to sabrina and off to the zoo we went.
gawd! how could i forget how much fun the zoo is??? all those really cute and really lovely animals. and they all behaved so funny. the first ones already, which where giraffes and kinda looked really stupid and seemed to follow us because first they looked through the window when we went into 'their' house to check what's inside and then they kept walking after us while we were walking along the side of their place. i don't normally like the usual "zoo animals" like giraffes, elephants, lions, etc... that much. but those were nice. people kinda thought we were stupid because we kinda went "uh huh" at all the big attractions and completely freaked out about how cute they were when we saw the racoons or the ponies in the kid's part or the donkeys. but yeah, there were some really cute ones. AND they finally had racoon postcards. of course, i bought almost all of them. one is really funny. it's kinda racoon porn. there are shagging racoons in the picture. *lmao* so yeah, it was a fun day! i have a sunburn on my shoulder now, though. it doesn't hurt but it looks scary and feels hot. oh well...

i also managed to finish harry potter 4. YEY! and i started reading "me talk pretty one day" by david sedaris now. i've only read about 20 pages but i find it hilarious already. i don't think it'll take me long to read and all...

whoa, now danny asked if i'm gonna go out with her tomorrow. it feels strange to suddenly be rather popular. it feels like someone's felt sorry for me and convinced all those people to put up with me. like someone's pushed a button and now there they are. of course, i don't mind but still...it's a bit scary. i have been alone most of the time in my life and only went out now and then and now i go out almost everyday and people are almost fighting about who gets to go out with me. ok, not fighting, of course. but today, danny txted me while i was out with sabrina and asked if we'd go to the pool. and she sounded seriously disappointed when i said i was out already. ok, i wouldn't have gone to the pool anyway. i don't like the way i look and walking around in a swimsuit is hell for me.
it might sound silly but i kinda miss my quality time on my own. i mean, i am 19 now and i can't remember a single time in all those years that i had more than one friend. serious friend that is. not someone i knew from school and liked and did something with about twice a year. so, of course, i didn't do many things, either. ok, during those rather short periods that danny and me were friends we did something almost everyday but usually it was something that involved one of us visiting the other and basically doing seperate things, too. now, having two good friends in my area and a few friends who live a bit further away but whom i do things with, too is kind of a big change as it really changes my daily "schedule". there's less "being alone and bored" and "doing dorky things" but more "being social" on the list. ok, even i, kathy "real life stinks" *insert last name here*, can't deny that it's a positive change. cyber-life and whatever else people use to entertain themselves is fun. but real life makes you feel a bit more alive. oh well...i'm not gonna praise my oh-so-super real life now, as it might as well be over tomorrow. there just need to be some serious arguments here and some boredom there and that was it. so, i'll just wait and see and be happy with what i have.

ps: i know, i'm still far away from having a real real life. and yes, i know there are people who are a lot more active than me. thank you!
