injury

today i went with genna to her brothers soccer picnic thing. it was fun we rollerbladed and played at the playground and all the stuff we usually do, and also soccer, except while playing soccer i got hit in the face with the ball, i guess the lens of my oakleys kinda pushed into my face so its scraped up a bit.

so of course here is a picture

zoot suit riot

i dont know why i only ever think of song names for titles of these posts. anyway, today genna and i went downtown someplace to take a swing dancing lesson! it was alot of fun, ive wanted to learn for a long time. it doesn't look that hard when you watch other people do it, but learning it is actually pretty difficult. hopefully we'll keep going and get really good at it because its fun.

people need to make me update more often

stuff thats happened

fri - katie's grad party was fun, there were alot of people there, i got to play sonic games! and that eye toy camera thing. and her dogs didn't attack me like some other dogs try to do. her sugar glider is so cool too, i wish i could have seen it actually glide though, that would be neato.

sat - went out to grapevine mills, got a cool button down shirt from hollisters for 10 bucks. sweet. also got some jeans, camo shorts, and flip flops at AE.

sun - genna and i got up early and went out to scarborough fair all day. it was alot of fun. it didn't rain even though it was suppose to, it did drizzle a little bit but not much. we did alot of walking around. we watched some comedy show, started watching in the middle of it and it was alright. we watched the turtle racing too! ive never seen someone talk so long about turtles and racing. he talked for like half an hour. we tried to watch the jousting, but it was just a bunch of people sitting on the bleachers waiting..i didn't see anyone on the actual jousting field. the last show we watched was a knife throwing show, crazy stuff, i dont think i'd be able to handle having knives thrown at me, the one was REALLY close to the guy. when we were walking we stopped to look at these fountain things and some guy knocked over a fish one and i got all wet. that was not cool. they had this maze thing you go through, it wasn't too big, and we went through it a few times but still kept running into the dead ends. and of course i ended up with a plant in my mouth. we did a game where you sit on a log and try to knock the other person off with pillows. i won, and also got my shirt muddy. i also did an archery thing. all in all i ended up with more gold stickers, so hah. the shops had alot of cool stuff, all the clothing is so expensive though, very cool looking, but $$. there were these cool sphere things that you roll around your hand and do tricks with, we played with them and tried to have the person show us how to do it but its quite difficult. the food was really good, had a turkey leg, and this thing that was half orange half italian ice, and a funnel cake. there was the one spot that smelled so good, i jsut wanted to stand there. now for the bad stuff -pregant women should not wear belly dancer outfits and paint their stomach -guys should not dress like fairies -noone should wear just tights, you need a longer shirt to hide stuff. after that i hung out a gennas, we played video games for a while and wrestled a bit.

mon - memorial day - went to gwalt's for his little mem day get together, they had hamburgers and hotdogs and good food. played some guitar with some guy there somehow related to gwalt i think that is really good. played with this cool hover disc thing. later i went to genna's for dinner, her parents made hamburgers and stuff that you eat with hamburgers. after we ate we watched hero and johnny english. both were good

tue - its getting late and all the stuff i did is starting to run together and i dont know what day i did what. umm dont think much happened during the day. first day i went running in a week. the running hurt, alot. never going to take a week off again, no matter what. watched some tv and started throwing a hackey sack at each other.

wed - again, dont remember doing anything during the day. went to youth group. always a good time. went running afterwards. played around either tues or wed i had a waterballoon fight too.

thurs (today) - went to the mall with my sister, genna, and genna's brother. had to go get a gift for my moms bday today, got her bath and body works stuff. washed my car. my mom, sister, and i went to posado's to eat. went running, met some of genna's friends, played some foosball and airhockey and videogames.
