yay for tuesday

allo. allo.

i closed at work past two nights. ended up staying sunday night til 12:10 a.m. because it had been super busy and stupidly it was julia (closing manager), me (closing back of house), and noelle (closing waitress), and tara was last waitress off and stuck around to visit. needless to say, we spent a lot of time not doing what we were supposed to do.

for instance, we discovered how many people each person has kissed. the results were rather surprising.

noelle - 70
tara - 8-10
susan - 4
julia - 1



alright. i know, seventy is unfathomable. but what makes it even weirder is the fact that for the past 5 or 6 years i've known noelle, she's always come across as the sweetest little thing, like another meredith or something.

don't worry, meredith has NOT kissed 70 guys.

but noelle has.

and it turns out one of them was rafo, before he and i dated. THAT was interesting.



and then last night julia and i decided we probably need to get the oil in my car changed at the jiffy lube on 82 and Michigan road. why the jiffy lube on 82 and michigan road, you ask? well its NOT because per works there. tee hee. ironically, kitty stopped in last night to return a set of maps of fishers (she used to be a driver at PH)...the infamous set of maps that "caused her horrible car accident." she showed al the "big rock" on her finger and he gave her congrats on being engaged. she let him know it was just a "promise ring" but still a "big rock."

julia and i didn't laugh out loud once.

oil change: friday.


and i'd just like to point out that i feel that a promise ring is pointless. it's adding more steps to it. if you want to make a commitment, make a commitment. if you don't, then don't. a promise ring is like being engaged to be engaged to get married. it's stupid. stupid. stupid.


when i got home i spent about 30-45 minutes on caryn's computer trying to get the pop-ups closed and start up AIM. on her comp it won't let me sign on as LaGatita0007 due to an "invalid password." i dont know what that's about. and dad's new superdupercomputer doesn't have AIM, only MSN, and i'm NOT allowed to download anything (and understandably so). so now i'm just waiting for him to stop toying with me and go downstairs and plug the right cord in the right hole so i have internet access upstairs. but yeah. meredith was online!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and i got to talk to her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and now we have a plan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

josiah and karissa are getting married on the 21st in michigan. i've never driven that far by myself in my LIFE, so i'm a bit nervous. meredith's coming up on the 19th and we're going to play for two days and then go up for the wedding. after the wedding, mere is headed to torch lake to visit her grandparents for awhile and i'll head home (assuming i can find my way back there).

like meredith said, "why were we so upset on saturday? we were going to see each other again!"
to which susan said "it was our funeral."

(oh, and no, we didn't do the "thelma and louise" ending -- we couldn't find a suitable cliff in indiana)

and apparantly jonny G is going to be in this section of the midwest around the same time (the 20-24), which brings me to this:

dear jon,
hi. it's me, susan. and meredith vicariously. we were wondering if you could maybe come on the 19th too. we'llllllll plaaaaaaaaaay with youuuuuuuuu. there's a new huge outdoor mall in carmel that looks like something off the set of the O.C. i didn't know it was there til dad drove me through it. i almost crapped my pants. peoples like jon, meredith, and dignal would LOVE it and DIE there. DIE. DIE. oh, and caryn put you on her buddy list.
your friend(s),
us
