You Can Live A Year On That Jack...
Friday was the best day EVER. KIM CAME!!!! She got to my house around 12. I saw her pull up and ran out the door, screaming. She ran to me and we pretty much smashed into eachother...it kinda hurt but that's okay, we were too busy screaming and yelling to care what the reason was. We hung out in my room, did our hair, and had a dance party to our favorite music...I'm sure mom and dad thought the house would fall down. Then we drove to the mall and got makeovers, and made faces at one another whenever the workers weren't looking. It was really fun. We shopped some...then we went to Airway lanes and met Eric, Justin, and Anthony....it was super busy so we played cards until there was an open lane. ...played cards with tiny 2x1 cards that were pink and yellow with a big tweety bird on them. Justin looked at them and said, "All my manliness just died." I looked up, suprised. "What manliness?"...I ducked, and everyone laughed, including Justin...Anthony grabbed Justin's arm and yelled, "Quick!! Watch football!!" We bowled...and Elise is rubbing off on me, because I made Kim tie my shoelaces. I HATE bowling shoes. It was really fun, even though I had the worst score...interesting, last time I got a turkey...This time I was lucky If I didn't have 3 opens in a row. Sad, sad, sad...But Kim made me feel better by giving me back rubs and high-fiving my horrid scores....well, the others high-fived me too, but they didn't give me back rubs. ...then I sneaked up behind Kim before she was about to bowl, and I poked her...She yelped, jumped in the air, and fell on the ground, still holding the ball, and started laughing uncontrollably. I tried to help her up, laughing pretty hard myself...Oh, I love that girl. Well, then we split into two cars and drove to Ming Dynasty...Eric was so funny. Kim and I went to the bathroom really quickly first, and He thought we were going to one of the exits. So he ran and got his car to pull it around...Then Kim and I came out, and assumed he had gone and was waiting outside...We went to look for him, out a different exit...we couldn't find him so we waited. He pulled up in abou 2 minutes, got out and opened the doors for us. We asked and he said he thougt we were going out the first door, so he raced to get the car to impress us...but we didn't show up, so he came over here and we were waiting for him. Poor guy....But we had a fabulous time singing along with the radio on the way to dinner. When we got there, I forgot that his car has only 2 doors, and shut Kim inside. Eric walked around the car and opened the door for her...as he was helping her out, I slipped on black ice and fell hard on my back and arm. Eric finished helping Kim, closed the door, turned and saw me, and walked over, laughing, to help me up. I finally laughed too, and as he offered me his hand and I took it, I said, "Is this becoming a tradition? Every time we hang out I slip on ice and you help me up?" He laughed. looked aoround and saw Justin carrying my dropped purse inside...aww, I have such nice guy friends!!!...we ate dinner and played farzle...It was so much fun. After about an hour, we decided to drive to my house and hang out some more...we played quelf, foosball, more farzle, and other various games...including egyptian ratscrew, this time with more manly cards. Anthony got REALLY into it...seriously, his expression was deranged and desperate. He slapped so hard I was sure the table would split in half, and he developed this kind of maniacle laughter through the course of the game when he got any cards. So, this game accomplished 2 things...a very interesting laugh for anthony and an explination for why he rarely plays cards, and a new saying from me..."You can live for a year on that jack." I think I said it when someone got the jack card for the first time...I don't remember. But it kinda developed so I heard Eric say angrily when Anthony stole his cards and started cackling madly, "Oh, Darn it!! He can live for a year on that jack!!" He sounded so depressed and morose, It was almost tearful. We played more farzle...Anthony helped me make cinnamon milk. Kim wanted Hot chocolate, and well---It SAYS to put 1/3 c for cinnamon milk, I guess maybe I thought it could be the same for hot chocolate. So Kim got a cup of verry chocolatey chocolate...and Anthony and I tried not to choke on our milk as we watched her try to keep a straight face and be polite about my granny's special hot chocolate recipe. Arond 10:30 maybe we decided we were pretty much done...so the 5 of us ran outside into the cold. ...Kim in a hoddie, me in a short-sleeved thin shirt and jeans...the guys had coats, I think. There ensued a snow/ice fight. I got snow down my shirt, and Anthony found a party popper thingie and popped it in my face. I thought I had been blinded by a firecracker...I opened my eyes to find confetti all over my hair. Kim and I got most of the guys in the face...I know for sure I got Eric, But I'm not sure If iI aimed as well with the other two. My hands were freezing by now, I thought they would fall off. I think I realized Eric was an insane gentleman somewhere in the period of time where he let me put my freezing hands on his warm cheecks...very kind of him, I'm sure It was terribly uncomfortable. He pretty much saved my night...Pulld the car around, helped me when I fell, let me freeze his face off so I could be more comfortable. ...Anthony provided entertainment...I WISH you could have seen his face during cards. Justin was just all-around Justin--the way he always is. insanely hilarious, easy-going...applauding my failures at bowling. Thanks for that. Kim--oh Kim I miss you...Kim made me happy. because just being around her I feel like...I CAN FLY LIKE SUPAMAN!!! or something along those lines. It was the best day ever....I hope we can do something like that again soon, it was soo much fun. Yay for good friends, Tweetie Bird cards, Chinease food, Farzling, and snowball fights.

I enjoyed reading this aloud with you watching over my shoulder! Glad you had such a great time with friends. Maybe Kim's family will decide they really want to do a regular get-away to Grand Rapids.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing day that was! Top three for days where I have laughed the most and the hardest. To the point of extreme pain and tears... ahhh... :D
