"s.o.l., in existential terms"

i hung out with dr. e and dr. zinck before my kickball party on wednesday. we sat on the patio at high level diner and ate WAY too much blueberry crumble. as always, it was nice to hear dr. zinck make sense of relationships and life, and to hear dr. e make sense of superman, pirates of the carribean II, and johnny depp.

my kickball party was nice. small, but nice. bri, joel, bethany, karen, julie, and her friend john showed up, as well as darcy, to my surprise. we only played one and a half innings, but i think that team caylie-joel-karen came out on top, despite being at bat only once. we were too tired to play any more than that, so we ate strawberries and salt and pepper chips, and then we went to my house to eat dairy queen ice cream. nice to talk to bethany about glue sticks and hiking boots, to joel about poetry, and to karen and bri about travelling. as a side note, i am thrilled to say that i haven't really gotten noticeably sick from my immunizations. hip, hip, hooray!

yesterday i hung out with dr. e yet again, as karen, julie, julie's friend john, and i went to her house for a pizza party. nice to be able to hang out and say goodbye.

jenni's band, "illfit outfit," played at the sidetrack last night. it was nice to see lots of king's people, and nice to finally meet landon, and nice to be able to say goodbye to lots of people. i think jenni is my new band crush, thanks to her many facial expressions and cute little stiff, girl, "pop pop pops." i had a really strong urge to just get up and go home in the middle of the set, and i had to fight it pretty hard to avoid hurting people's feelings by not saying goodbye. it's not like i didn't like the music, but... i don't know. something in me gets restless. i used to listen to it a lot more often, but for the last couple of years, i've really begun to fight it for other peoples' sake. but i think i'm going to start listening again. i like it and it feels good.

i talked to courtney for a long time on msn after i got home, and i am still pretty disappointed i haven't gotten to see her. maybe i will come into edmonton saturday night to hang out, but i'll have to see. i sure do like her, and i wish we hung out more.

today i have to/get to drive my dad's jeep back home, but i'm not sure i am insured on it. let's hope. my car is being a piece of garbage, and keeps unlocking every two seconds when i drive, and the alarm went off last week WHILE i was driving, and now it unlocks itself when it is parked. yikes. but i don't have the money/time to get it fixed. eff. i just hope i don't find anyone sleeping in it or something.

off to vermilion now.
