I went to school today to send off my multi project to Aurora. Everyone else had to go to presentation day assembly, mwahaha. The joys of being in year ten and out of school already. Of course it does mean we've no year elevens to hang out with during out HAHAHAHA NO SCHOOL time. Year twelves, on the other hand, are fair game, so after sending off le project I went to Stan's and spent most of the day watching about one and a half seasons of Futurama. It was sooo lazy, even his dog spent most of the time collapsing on me. Shortly before I left, Stan was assigned by his dad to make dinner (butter chicken), and despite not liking to work with raw meat washed and diced some before realising that he had no milk. Which was amusing, and a lesson to all of you: do like the cookbook tells you - check all the ingredients and utensils before you start cooking. I mean, sure, you can improvise a whisk with a fork, a sieve with your hair and an oven mit with your mom's underwear or any conveniently flat pets lying around, but I don't fancy going next door and asking the neighbor's wet-nurse to donate some dairy products for the cause, do you?
I also got locked out of the house this morning. Well, actually I got locked INTO the house, which seems an excellent metaphor for my general inability to go anywhere without being asked. See, we have this screen door. And it doesn't have one of those convenient turnthehandle locks on the inside, no, you need a key to open it from either side. My parents locked it before they left in the morning. So, naturally, it turned out that my key was fucked up and wouldn't turn the damn lock. This was a bit of a conundrum. After calling my dad for technical support, I went out the back way.
Hah. "Went out the back way". That makes it sound so... simple. No. No, because in a further apt metaphor, there just happened to be a FUCKING HUGE SPIDERWEB strung all the way across our dmittedly rather narrow backyard. So, what could I do. If I was just going for a walk, I'd jut have given up and played computer games. But no, this was something I needed to do. So, I squealed a bit, whined at my cat, and then crept by the TRAP OF DETH, close to the wall, waving a broom in front of me like a crazy woman just in case a stray strand caught me. It's lucky there aren't really any magical elves living in our yard, or they would have pissed themselves laughing at me.
After I got to school, I started thinking that it was a nice day, and it was a pity to go back home when I'd dragged myself out of the house with such iron will. And a broom. So I got on msn and had a lengthy conversation with stan in which beaches and art galleries were ruled out, as was Avi who was still in school and not replying to text messages, and Futurama was the only idea that came up. Don't you hate those "What do you wanna do? I dunno, what do you wanna do?" conversations? I might've given up half-way and gone hoem to play the aforementioned computer games, if it weren't for the fact that I had in my posession a completely useless front door key, and had with my usual foresight forgotten to bring the key needed to open the backyard door from the outside. No scrambling over spider-infested fences for Teh Maggeh!
Also, Stan has still not gotten round to either reading Sandman or watching Firefly or Serenity. But he shall succumb to mightier forces! UND ZEN VE SHALL RUL ZE- I mean have a pretty banner because there's gonna be MORE FIREFLY! if somewhat Fanon Firefly.
