theme of the day: morbid.
i’m listening to… jimmy eat world.
i’m feeling… kk.
8:44 pm — so i’m going to write this and go to bed. wewt. -__-
let’s start with yesterday… yesterday we had adventures to costco and target and best buy, lol… very usual things, very routine… yet it was fun for some reason -__-at night me and liz went to last supper club for dean’s birthday, sort of… me, eva, and liz made him the most awesome card… on the front, we had, “what is dean kim?” and answered with every cool adjective we could think of (ie: fashionable, valiant, courageous, etc.) and also concluded that list with drawings of a donkey, a pot of gold and a rainbow, and a block of cheese. lol, we r0x. -__- on the back, we wrote dean in elmer’s glue and covered it with glitter, and put all sorts of stickers on it… one of which was a sumo wrestler thing… and eva wrote, “nurturing like a mother’s milk” LMAO. at the end of the card, we signed it with, “with the love as abounding as the oceans and as strong as a tsunami.” lmao. we r0x. we patted our own asses for so long after we made the card, with things like, “we are so awesome. this is awesome. this is genius,” etc. but yeah, the club / bar, was alright. very interesting mix of people. that is all. not my scene, but whatever, for now i’ll go anyway, just to poke around, although i’m always bored and sober and crap…
now today - was quite another adventure… omigat. supar dupar. so we woke up @ 8 and drove up… it was me, cynthia, karen, mike, and lenny… so la la la we had to ride with six people in the car til redmond because mike had to drop off his cousin sigma (what a name)… and up we went. on the way, we had to stop because chains were required… took cynthia, mike, and lenny like a half hour to put the chains on, lol, because no one knew how. cynthia and i ended up peeing on the side of the road in this snowy area which overlooked this small river with running water… haha it was actually pretty damn nice scenery for peeing! ^__^ the whole trip really, we were talking about dying… it’s really really weird that no one was bothered by it… everyone was just like, “watch mike crash into this car right here and it’s all over,” “watch us all die right here,” “he’s gonna kill us all,” etc. so much morbidity. lol. amuze.
so we were driving up and we were the ONLY car going towards steven’s pass, and a shitload of cars were leaving, so we were like WTF. we got there and steven’s was closed and all the lifts stopped running, so we sat around for a while, and we walked up a couple hills - except i’m super weak sauce and out of shape, and i thought my lungs were seriously going to explode a number of times and ummmm yeah. it was fucking cold as hell, and the reason every lift was stopped was because - as some lady described it - people would go up and come down all frosted over (like people’s cars… which was another amazing thing in itself, and i will describe later). anyway, went down one run hella shittily, because i can’t board when the snow isn’t powder, because i’m freaking weak sauce…!! anyway, after we started going down the second run, uhh my binding froze over. so, it wouldn’t lock in… so i started walking down with my board, and somehow i let it go, and it went flying into a creek. -__-” so it took me a while to find it, and then cynthia started trying to get it, and then mike got it… and it was actually sitting in water, so they just threw a bunch of snow on it and somehow got it out. good shit -__-”
so then we decided to leave, and everyone was freezing and frostbitten as hell with red hands and stuff. the way the ice froze over on one side of the car was AMAZING. we couldn’t open the door without yanking hella hard. after we rolled down the window, there was just this sheet of lumpy ice there from where the water froze over, and it was cool, because even though the window was rolled down, it looked like there was another one. hard to describe unless you saw a pic. so we punched holes in it and took pics. ^__^
on the way back we were lucky we didn’t really get stuck, and taking off chains was a lot easier than putting them on. we stopped in skykomish (or something) where mike stayed when he was like 16, and there’s a haunted hotel there called the skykomish hotel. description as follows:
Skykomish Hotel Bed & Breakfast: This is the home of the “blue lady”. It is reputed that the very top floor of this place used to be a speakeasy, where the ladies of the night entertained and where gambling went on. One of the prostitutes had a new boyfriend. The boyfriend walked in on her as she was doing business with another man. The boyfriend had forgotten what her line of business was and, enraged, he killed her.
anyway, mike was talking about how he heard weird noises and how he felt hella creepy in that place when he was staying there by himself (his sister had gone to buy groceries), and the next day his sister told him the story heh. ;0 fascinating. i want to go back to the winchester mystery house… description as follows:
When William Wirt Winchester, the heir of the Winchester fortune, died, his wife Sarah began visiting spiritulists in Boston. This person convinced Sarah that she was going to be haunted by all the people ever killed by the famous rifle. Sarah moved to California and bought a 18 room house. A lot of rooms? Guess not, because she hired twenty- two carpenters to add more rooms. One of the rooms was her Seance Room. This room was forbidden to everyone until her death because she believed that if anyone but her entered it, it would become unclean and evil spirits would dominate it. . This room can only be found by navigating the many rooms and passages. Her thinking was to create enough rooms for “good” ghosts while tricking “evil” ghosts by way of stairways going nowhere, doors that open to solid walls and even a room full of balconies of all shapes and sizes. The end result is a house with 160 rooms, 47 fireplaces and 13 bathrooms.
the place is seriously amazing. doors open up to a six foot drop into toilet bowls, doors open up to brick walls, steps are like 1/2 the size of normal people because the lady was so short, and doors open up to more doors, stairs go up to the ceiling, etc. etc. seriously, amazing. AMAZING. i need to go back. NEED.
but anyway, it’s freaking me out writing about this stuff… we had dinner at this place, and we got free seconds of hot cocoa because well they took so long. we were seriously there for like two hours waiting for food, although it didn’t actually feel like it. quite strange. mike started sleeping and we were going to rub jelly on his face, but that didn’t really work out :[ we also concluded that cynthia is always smiling - which i never noticed before, but it’s pretty true. i finally also got the comic book josh got me for birthday / christmas. it’s effin sexy.
anyway, they also fucked up on my meal. i wanted potato salad and they gave me chips, and they left out the tomatoes in my veggie sandwich!
WTFUCKINGF! right! but it was cool just being in a little town and stopping by a random little restaurant… i enjoi
and we also took a bunch of pics next to the hotel in a silly attempt to capture the ghost in the pics… so maybe we’ll have some with it in it
(doubt it). the hotel was closed when we were there, or else maybe we could have gone inside :[
to continue morbidity, the whole time these trains were passing by behind the restaurant we were in (which was actually another hotel, and it was really weird… they had all these random game rooms for scrabble, 21+ room, and regular dining room)… and we were saying how we wanted to jump on the train like in the movies, only we’d miss and get our heads crushed under the train and stuff. wtf, so morbid, but no one was bothered by it. it’s really really kind of odd.
on the way back uh we concluded mike dances and sings like corky romano. and we were just continuing the ghost convo, saying, “omg, the fog keeps coming back and going away… what if we’re driving in circles!” and then the ice was still melting and coming off of the car and causing banging / scraping sounds, so we were like, “omg! what if the ghost is on top of the car!” also the car had pretty much a self-made weather system… we dragged in so much water into the car after boarding and then turned up the heat, that all of the water evaporated and hung onto the top of mike’s sunroof, and started dripping down on the way back, and we were like, “OMG WHAT IF IT WERE REALLY BLOOD.” we’re so stupid, but it was such an amusing trip.
and talk of death, oh me oh my, amusing, but wtf. i’m pretty sure we referred to death or said the word die, death, etc. at least 35 times. ;0
did i leave out anything, mr. lenny? oh yeah, and lenny sleeps with his eyes open. wtf.
(lenny’s response:)
Haha being morbid is what I do best!
On the way to Stevens we made a wish while passing through a tunnel. We wished that it would be snowing at stevens and that all would be well. BUT ALAS, the tunnel gods were cruel to us. And we joked how normally cheerful Cynthia would snap and go on a homicidal killing spree. To be honest I was expecting her pupils to dialate and her skin to turn to turn green in a fit of uncontrolable rage. GRRR CYNTHIA MAAAD! CYNTHIA SMASH! …. but to my dismay, she didnt turn into she hulk.
It was awesome when the 5 of us would walk up the hill, then I would turn around halfway up and see you sitting there staring at the ground
That really sucked that the weather had to be so shitty
I really wanted to snowboard. I hope I can go again sometime before the season ends.
I think the waitress thought we were getting mad while we were waiting cuz when i looked back into the kitchen she saw me looking. And then she started telling the cook how he cooks so slow. Poor guy >_<
That snowboarding trip was soooo horrendous. But it was so fun somehow!
(anthony’s response:)
you guys should have checked the reports before you left…
i mean… when its 45 degrees and pouring down rain… you shouldnt be going… or when the website says… ALL LIFTS ARE CLOSED FOR TWO DAYS… thats a sign.
oh well, that must have been a new experience. i wanted to go too, but i didnt get home til 6am, and we sorta realized that the ski trip wasnt going to happen due to the weather anyway.
(lenny’s response:)
You missed out on quite a horrifically spectacular day! It said the the lifts were open when we checked biatch!!!@!@#$ They closed it while we were still heading up there, hence the mass exodus from the pass!
We werent about to turn back. OH NO WE WORKED TOO HARD
Oh yeah here is an illustration of our car’s weather system
(not shown)
Next time we are gonna take my car(suv) T__T and it will be the greatest trip of this decade, for there will be much snacks and car games!
