A dash of math, a sprinkle of Menchie's, and a healthy dose of Wonderland.

If you will allow me to speak dishonestly for a moment. I have been having a wonderful time without you all! That is why I haven't been updating in goodness knows how long. I have been so busy doing all these fun things that you haven't been a part of.

Ok. Now that is over, time for some truth telling. I have been in and out of internet restriction, swimming in school work, and realized I am a total b*tch to everyone and that is why I don't have many friends. Also, because I never talk to anyone, but that is beside the point. I have also realized that this has made me depressed, and I have been this way for quite a while! Joy and rapture! I am coming out of my funk, though! I have been talking to people, been social, and actually enjoying life for the first time in quite a while. So...I shall tell you what I have been doing this weekend, which was awesome! I am actually serious this time. Not being sarcastic or condescending or anything. It truly was awesome.

Well, my dad has been out of town once again to New Jersey business, and was coming home late Friday night. Fridays are always packed for us, so I will start there. As my mom screams ten minutes till we have to go, I roll out of bed, throw on clothes, and attempt in my half conscious state to make my self presentable. We had to unlock the Tae Kwon Do studio at 8:30 for our theater class at 9:00. Needless to say, I was not happy about this. The person who normally does it, the amazing Mrs. Sondra McCoy, was on vacation with her family, and asked if we would take over for her, which we did. So, we go through theater class. I silently kick myself for not bringing my monologue for the 3rd week in a row. Next we help my grandfather move yet again. He was moving from his current apartment to his old apartment 2 buildings down. That was fun. *rolls eyes* My sister freaked out yet again, when she saw his stuff he uses for drag. -le sigh- Why does she have to freak out everytime? My grandpa is a drag queen, and gay. Been all my life. Been all HER life. Just...whatever. Then to Tae Kwon Do! Or not? Ok. -shrugs- We head home to clean the house because my Tía Carmen is coming up Wednesday. Then, more school work. We finish the day piled into my mom's room helping her catch up on Psych, which is amazing. If you don't watch it, you should. Then I head to bed. Or not. I am on my phone checking up on various events on Facebook, checking to see if any new chapters of the Fanfictions I am reading have been posted, checking Twitter, and I get chatting with Ms. Zoe Katz. Now we talk now and then, and she is totally awesome. She is what I like to call my insomnia buddy. We ususally strike a conversation about 2, 3 in the morning, and then Skype. That event is always hilarious. It consists of showtunes singing, yelling at Skype constantly, and talking about RENT incredibly in depth. Then I sleep. Next day, woo!

Saturday. This is fun. So, I roll out of bed about 11:00, because of not sleeping until 4 am the previous night because of said Skyping. I eat. I wash dishes. I carry out mundane tasks. I silently kick myself because I don't have enough time to take a shower before I have to go to the book store. We leave about 1:30 to pick up Syd from rehearsal (She is student directing Huck Finn at Rose of Athens. Go see it this weekend. It really is awesome.). We grab a bite to eat, I watch Clemson destroy North Carolina, and we are off to Avid Bookstore. Now, Rose of Athens was invited to do a promotional type thing for a new independent bookstore in Athens called Avid Bookstore (which is now my new favorite place. Seriously. I love it.). The academy students (the theater class people) were invited to dress up as book characters for their grand opening and interact with the customers. So, we ran over there about 3:00 to get ready. About 4, Krissy (White Witch from Narnia), Jordan (Tweedle Dee or Tweedle Dum, we haven't decided, from Alice), Sydney (Card from Alice), and I (Alice from Alice) it is show time! We have a blast hanging out with all the kids! Finally, 5 o'clock rolls around, and it is time go to. Krissy invites us out to Menchie's, a frozen yogurt shop in Athens afterwards, and my parents agree, as to Jordan's, and we meet up over there. Now, I had never had frozen yogurt, so I was quite nervous when I arrived, but eventually, I got Pomegranate-Raspberry Sorbet with coconut, kiwi, and lots and lots of honey. We, being the theater kids we are, spend the evening, eating frozen yogurt, playing statues, screaming at the giant trucks in a poorly executed Bulgarian(?, because it wasn't quite Russian. Maybe Romanian? ) accent (mostly me on that one), and taking pictures. Eventually, we went home to watch movies with my parents and headed to bed.

Yeah. Sunday was rather boring. I didn't get out of bed till about 4. I felt sick to my stomach and was terribly dehydrated, and overall wasn't very productive. I took a shower, I went to bed, and slept. That was pretty much it.

Today was cool though! I will tell you about it! I roll out of bed about 9, silently kicking myself for not getting up earlier. I log into my school and get cracka-lackin' on it. My mom came up shortly after to finish my sister's skirt for her halloween costume, because we had to wear ours for the girl scout meeting. Now, the troop leader's younger daughter and I had a falling out this summer, and I had determined that my halloween costume was going to be better than hers, because I kind of really don't like her, and I could not stand if a store bought costume was better than mine. Lucky for me, we still had the Alice costume at our house, so I got to wear it. Boo ya! I showed up looking like a boss, only to find out that she didn't even wear her costume, and pretty much everyone did not know who I was. The meeting kind of sucked, like usual. Then mom dropped Syd off at 4-H, we got Subway, Mom dropped me home, so I could work some more, and that is what I did.

Now you are caught up to speed! Hope I didn't bore you with all 
the mundane details of my life. Luckily for me, I still don't have a clue on what to be for Halloween, but we get to keep the costumes till next Monday, which means, I am going to wear the Alice costume for Halloween! Yay! I seriously have a love affair with that costume. It is not even funny. So, I will be trick-or-treating with a group of my public school friends in the Alice costume. So...pictures will be up hopefully. You all will get to see why I love it so much. Either way. I HAVE to go to bed now. It is almost midnight, and I was supposed to go to bed almost 2 hours ago, but just had to write a blog post. I was starting to feel bad for not updating. So...goodnight!
