the only thing worth remembering.
i’m listening to… jimmy eat world.
5:00 am - not the most ideal time to write in here for numerous reasons (one of which is because it is 5am), but i’m going to anyway, just because i’m going to forget it later.
went questing today with lenny, alex, cynthia, and jennie. hahaha what’s funny is cynthia moved out of her old place but i guess alex and i both forgot, and i drove there and we walked upstairs and stuff (didn’t call, which is good… good job subconscious), and then looked inside and saw HEY THERE’S NO ONE LIVING HERE AT ALL. then we remembered that she moved over in with jennie. oops. it’s only been like uhhhh A MONTH. idiots.
cyn and lenny were having a water balloon fight @ their place beforehand. it was umm yeah fine. then we went to 7/11 to get drinks or whatever and then to magnusson park in sandpoint. it’s right by radford court. big park. don’t know why we’ve never been there before.
first got there and they had some quote unquote art installations (ha typed out), which were like giant pieces from old nuclear subs that were scattered around a lawn and painted black. was going to climb, but it was really hot. then we just continued to walk around. alex climbed a tree quite nicely and got bit by ants or something. jennie found some pink ribbon tied to some stake in the ground that was probably slightly important as it had a #6 written on it, but whatever. tied the ribbon in her hair. found the beach. cyn, alex, and jennie jumped into the nasty ass nuclear waste water. there were the weirdest rocks there. some weird orange clayish rock that writes like chalk. some igneous rock that was weird-as-hell looking. some weird “black diamond” thing… not quite rocks. don’t know what it was. tried to do research right now but i can’t find anything about it. apparently a black diamond is something in between graphite and a diamond. although that scale is huge, i’m sure.
lit a fire on the side of the ocean. found good grass starter. was going to collect some for our bonfire on friday. and i did. but lost my bundle. and then collected another. and then lost another. and then yeah. i finally brought some home, but it’s a small pile, and it’s the third.
anyway, continued onwards. journeyed through bushes. found this random open dirt clearing in the midst of all this trampled grass and trees. there was a ring of trees around the open dirt clearing, which would have been perfect for a satanic ritual or something, omg! and i was trying to build a canopy. cynthia built a fire pit with rocks, and lit some stuff on fire, and then we decided ot put it out… just in case. lighting fires in a forest probably isn’t too great of an idea. just a thought.
took some random spiny ass path out. lots of cool little plants, as usual. saw this wooden plank in the middle of nowhere and thought that maybe there were stairs leading down to a dead body or something under it. instead, there were a lot of snakes. and one pissed or whatever on alex’s hand. and it smelled funny, allegedly.
and then we moved on and found a hole in some fence and found some abandoned part of the park with a bathroom that was all locked up and a soccer goal that was just demolished. and we climbed on some stuff, and then found the bottom of the poles that signs are on. so just the poles really. so we started playing javelin and throwing around these metal poles… and it was probably not very safe, and probably not a good idea, but it was fun, even though they are heavy as hell.
and then we saw this other fence, and we preceeded to hop through that one too. that one just had piles and piles of gravel and stuff. it wasn’t as exciting of a trespassing as one would have hoped, but we did manage to climb up the gravel hill and find this nice indented place between the piles where we all could sit around and stuff. it was neat. and cynthia cut her leg on the fence on the way in (we were stepping on it), and made a maxi pad tourniquet.
upon leaving the gated area, we found some random metal bars and stuff, and lenny and alex held them up and i attempted to climb up and do the around-the-worlds like we used to do in like 5th grade, except it was impossible to climb up it, and i had to swing out to try and get up it, so it was really hard for them to hold it. it was shaped like an upside-down U sorta. yeah and i ended up getting up by climbing alex’s leg / arm. lol.
then we left the area. found some red plastic cups and kicked them around. found a piece of wood that was like a cane.
then went to another beach. the real beach, instead of the random little section that touched water that we had previously found. a lot cleaner. didn’t go in, though.
then we left and found some kids picking at apple trees and alex boosted lenny and got a bunch of good ones. and the kids were just sitting around collecting them. this one girl had so many and other kids wanted to eat from the giant pile, and she was like, “no. you can’t eat from the pile.” jeezus, so bossy! there was this one little hispanic kid that was so freaking fat and so FUCKING CUTE. fuck, i wanted to kidnap him. he tried doing a cartwheel at some point HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA and ended up just crashing into the ground like the little short ball of cuteness he is. AAAHHHH HE WAS SO CUTE. serious. ate an apple. they were fucking yummy. a little bit bitter / sour, but in a good way. it was… probably the best apple i’ve ever had, and the lack of pesticides (i assume) made my mouth NOT itch. and that’s good.
anyway. left. harassed some more plants on the way back to the car, and then went back to the car. wewt.
afterwards. dropped off jennie and cyn and i guess some guy had a dog there that ran in front of a biker on the trail behind their apartments, and they crashed… one girl couldn’t move her neck and stuff or something. sucks. they had to call 911. then lenny, alex, and i went back to nordheim to shower, and went downtown briefly so i could give jake [gravbrot] the new redefine magazines that i got today. that was short-lived, cause then we went to jennie and chol’s apartment and had a mini-bbq. made way too many potatoes, but yeah. watched a lot of vh1. and it was all good. and concluded that if you smell people while breathing in, it tastes totally different, OMG.
