Yesterday was really windy.
So windy, in fact, that the wind blew something off of our 'lectricity line thing down at the end of the cul-de-sac and at 11:20ish, none of the people on our cul-de-sac had power.
So I took a shower in the dark for the first time in my life. It was a fun time, especially with the fact that the hot water might run out any second now zooming around my brain.
When I left for Kyle's party at 5:30, the electricity was still out. We were leaping for the corded phone for a chance at outside contact.
When I got home at 1, it was still out.
I woke up to the sound of the television.
I love electricity.
Kyle's pre-Halloween party was pretty nice. Played some Halo, made fun of a scary movie, watched Spawn, had a good time.
Today, I have no idea what I'm going to do for Halloween. I was thinking of finding a pumpkin patch and waiting for the great pumpkin but maybe I'll just see if people want to hang out.
I love you all.

Finding Neverland. November 12. Woo hoo!
That's my exciting news of the day.
This week has been insane, but yesterday was awesome. It was just a full day of theatre stuff with theatre people(most of which just rock my socks off) Very little drama from my side of the smoothie. It feels good. To be doing play stuff but not to have much stress because everything's done and you just do what you've done for three nights. You allow yourself to have fun. Which is a good thing.
I've found out...that alot of times you have to allow yourself to have fun. It's not too hard. Sometimes it can be, but there's always going to be something on your mind. You can't let it effect something that has a chance to be a good thing. I don't know, I don't care as much about the bad stuff as I did last year. I realize that I'm a senior. And that this year will be my last with many people and the last in many of these situations. Why make everything crappy because a few things are going on?
That whole speel will be misinterpretted and someone will be mad that I'm telling people to just forget about their problems. Which I'm not. I'm just saying don't let them decide your life. ::nods:: If that makes sense.
Strike is going to be interesting today. Most of the set has to stay together. And we're just sticking props in a box that says "Box O' Dracula". Haha. Woo slacking off. I can see us not makign it to theatre fest and having to clean it up again, but it'll be much later when I actually might have some motivation. Hm. Patrice with motivation? That is just insanity.
I'm glad the play is over. At the same time, I'm not. It was definitly a stressful show. Mucho stressful. At the same time, it was a blast. I'm going to miss it. This is maybe my second or third favorite show. After Les Mis and Joseph. In some kind of order. This show was just fun after all the stress. And there were actually nice actors too. Which is fun. The running crew was awesome. O man. If I get time, I'm writing backstage stories here. Just because I want to remember them. yeah. Just everyone backstage was awesome. Fun times. Let me tell you.
Yeah, the cast party was actually fun last night. Except when the speeches went on hour late and I was home uber uber late. But it doesn't matter that much. Didn't get in trouble.
Oh, and benny boy(if you read this), I meant to tell you... I made sure to kill mucho babies at the party. I think the count was at 17. Hm. Not bad if I say so myself.
I'm allowing my brain to turn to mush for another half hour. When I come back I have a whole outline to bullshit. Woo hoo. I'm hoping it'll take me an hour at the most. ::crosses fingers:: Maybe then I'll convince my sister to trick or treat with me for a little bit. That'd be fun. It'd be really sad if there wsa no way to celebrate halloween tonight. I would cry. I love halloween. It sucks having responsibility. Pooooooooo.
Ok peoples. Time to shower. I smell.
Je T'aime,
Patrice

Today was Mr. Hess' last day.
Somehow they got the guvnuh to make today Alan Hess day in Michigan.
No lie.
They brought him to school in a limo.
There was a big banner in front of the school that said Alan Hess Day and tons of banners that said, "We'll miss you".
He must have had ten cakes that people brought him.
Mine included.
I think everyone cried.
They got a few football players and the chariot from Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat. At the end of the day, they let us out of 6th hour early and Mr. Hess was carried around the downstairs hallway.
They had a big story about him on the school news too.
It was sad. Sad but happy.
The chorale, I think that's the highest choir, came in during our class (third hour) and sang to Mr. Hess. It was beautiful.
I wish we could have had a happier celebration but it was sort of happy sad.
I didn't do anything else during the day.
Sigh. I miss Mr. Hess already. I found out where his new house is approximately located too.
I love you all.

Tomorrow Kelly and I have our presentation in AP Lit.
I really should have written some journal pages in math but instead I read a book that I've read a thousand times.
I went to anime club today.
Sort of.
Not really.
I didn't want to deal with people talking to me because it seems like that's all people are anymore. That's all they do really. Talk to you. Talk at you.
I didn't want to deal with people.
So I first went down and got the projector. Lil Ben and I went to turn in some counselor application thing that you have to have your counselor send in to the college you apply to.
We ran into with Ben on the way back up to anime club. He gave me his car keys and said that Sims 2 was in his glove compartment and he'd be in the Scene Shop.
So Lil Ben and I went to go grab the copy of Sims 2 that Ben burned for me because Ben's a sweetie. We got sidetracked on the way back and ended up talking to Danny, some kid, Brett and Kyle for a while.
Then we went to give Ben his keys and some hard lovin'.
Lil Ben and I sat at the spot talking.
Danny found us again and we all sat around being perverted until he left.
Lil Ben and I didn't go back to anime club until it was finished. We just wandered around talking.
Meh.
I love you all.

If you phrase things just right, our group can be really messed up.
I could say: I am tired because I spent a long time on the phone last night when I should have gone to bed.
Or: I talked to Ben for a long time last night and now I'm really tired. I didn't finish talking to him until late.
Or: I spent three hours and twenty-four minutes on the phone with my ex-boyfriend last night. We didn't get done talking until 2 this morning. I got four hours of sleep so I'm completely exhausted.
Things are weird if you phrase them certain ways.
And really, it was three hours, twenty-four minutes and eleven seconds.
I'm really really really really tired.
I love you all.

Today I did my French song but I didn't.
I was going to do a Jacques Brel song but Mrs. Dudka got all upset that I didn't have it fully memorized and I was nervous so I did that head, shoulders, knees and toes song.
And a hobo dance.
Ashley gave me a flower today to cheer me up. It worked.
Wessely-sensei let us see our midterms like she usually does. And, for once, they looked easy.
We have anime club tomorrow.
Kelly and I have a presentation in AP Lit on Thursday.
I hope we don't have an in-class essay on Friday.
Six journal pages due on Friday that I haven't started of course.
Tomorrow during math class people are making up their tests. I got the highest score of the chicks so I'm not going to make it up. That means study hour and I'll need something to do. Maybe I'll write those journal pages on something.
Our Psychology test was easy. So was the Physics Concepts test.
I love cockney accents.
I love you all.
P.S. My kitty, McHenry/Mickey, bit Ben today. Ben was petting him and Ben said, "This is the cat that bites isn't it?" Then there was the typical: "He's not so bad." I said, "Famous last words." And that was it. Bam. Big chunk out of Ben's hand. Cracked me up. It was deep though, like always. I felt sort of bad about it.

I know I already said this but Ashton Kutcher reminds me of Nick.
A lot.
So I don't like watching anything with him in it.
It makes me want to cry.
I don't know why. Or maybe I do but I don't want to admit it.
Nick is ten thousand billion times infinity times hotter than Ashton Kutcher could ever ever be.
And way way way way better, nicer, everything in a bajillion ways.
I love you all.

To clear things up, I was on the phone talking to Ben last night and the battery died. It needs a new battery and it's always beeping saying that it's going to die. Last night was the first time I actually ignored the beeping and let it run on its rechargeable battery fumes.
So when I apologized to Ben about the battery dying, it was because I was talking to him and the battery completely died. The phone shut off and hung up on him. I was tired and I didn't want to almost kill myself trying to walk through my sister's room so I went to bed.
All of you are perverts.
I love you all.

This week sucks
My math teacher
Mr. Hess
The only teacher who has pounded algebra into my head
The only teacher whose math class I have gotten a grade higher than a C in
The only math class I've ever gotten an A in
The only class I have aced a math test in
My dear Mr. Hess
He has been talking all year about how he has health problems and will probably be retiring at the end of the year, maybe at the semester.
Friday is Mr. Hess' last day of teaching.
I cried when he told us today. Another girl in my class cried too. I was almost crying the rest of the day.
I'm going to miss Mr. Hess.
Today was my fourth and last time as Queen of Algebra under Mr. Hess.
This week is not going to be a very good week.
I love Mr. Hess.
I'm going to try to bring him cookies or something on Friday.
I gave him a big hug today.
He felt and smelled old.
It's sad.
I miss him already.
I love you all.
P.S. To cheer me and you up: take one cup of this comic, a dash of this shirt and call me in the morning.

I just got home from working on our French project with Kristy and Kelly.
It was a total mishap and I don't want to talk about it right now.
I e-mailed my teacher about it.
You know how in movies there are things that happen and are funny because they'd never happen in real life?
Well, today was like a movie.
First, Kelly and I were sort of angry about it but really, it was just funny.
Kelly and I almost died coming home.
Tomorrow I think I'm going apple-picking.

I also like surprising them by knowing.
But I'm don't know if I have everyone's right. So tell me if I do/don't or if you're not even on here.
If I met you, your name is actually your name and not your Woohu name. Except for Justin. For some reason, Justin will always be skife to me.

Something else you might not know:
You know the Indiana Jones movie with the holy grail?
There's that part near the end where the guy picks the wrong cup and turns into dust.
I've only watched it once.
I always turn my head to look away, close my eyes or leave the room.
It freaks me out.

Whatever
I'm so bored, it's not even funny.
I was going to go to the bookstore today but I can't get anyone to take me. Sorry, Katie. I'll try tomorrow.
My mom was talking about buying me a truck from some guy because it's cheap. Eh. I don't want her to buy me a car without me working for it. I don't like gifts.
Plus I can't even drive.
I miss Ben. If he was home, I'd be talking to him or hanging out with him or doing something with him. I can't wait until he comes home.
Meh.
I need a new stereo/boom box thing. It did that scratchy, dying thing again last night. The top thing that pushes down on the CD to make it spin or something gets off-center and crooked so the CD spins sideways a little, scratches the bottom, makes a horrible noise and skips. It's so frustrating because you have to get it just right and even then the CD is scratched and skips. I got it to work after half an hour of scratchy noises but the CD skipped.
I ended up listening to 88.1.
So I'll have to burn that CD again.
Each week for French class, we have to acquire a certain number of "speaking points". A lot of the class is missing a lot of points so Madame Dudka's brilliant idea is to have us sing for speaking points.
Joy.
I'll be "singing" Fils de... by Jacques Brel on Tuesday. I already have most (if not all) of it memorized but I can't sing so I'll "Henry Higgins" it and speak-sing.
Today is Friday, which means it's movie night for my sister and me. I'm not in the mood but I'm sure if I try, it'll be fun.
I have a paper due Monday about a book I don't have. I need to get it from the bookstore. Need.
I love you all.

Tuesday's horoscope
Jackie,
You may be feeling a bit too dry as you long for a deep emotional connection. The problem is that your nervous system has been on high frequency alert. It's like you've been taking an exam with only one question on it -- an unsolvable mathematical equation. Take the pressure off yourself and take an incomplete on the test. This is not a failure; you can come back to it later when you feel refreshed. This frees you up to attend to more important issues.
~*~
Yesterday
Jackie,
You have tools that allow you to go into deeper emotional realms than many of your friends. Now it is time to use whatever tricks you have in your bag as you dig further into the roots of your own needs to control emotions. As you discover the sources of your fears, you'll be able to better loosen up the blockages in your life.
~*~
Today
Jackie,
Tension arises from your own lack of clarity about your feelings. You are still feeling the intensity from yesterday's Venus-Pluto square, but now it's time to find your way back up to the surface. Even if your perspective is a bit clouded by your own fears, move past your uncertainty. Head directly into the mists of your own illusions, for it is there that you will find the blessing of self-forgiveness.

Things about me you might not probably don't know:
I'm afraid of answering machines, leaving messages on them.
I'm afraid of knives, especially when people are holding them in the same room I'm in.
I'm afraid of using the oven. I don't know why. It's a gas oven and I'm always afraid it'll blow up or I'll burn myself.
I'm afraid of being in the bathroom with the shower curtain closed. It makes me think that someone is hiding in the bathroom and will jump out and kill me.
I'm afraid of walking into the bathroom and finding someone (my mom usually) dead in the bathtub.
Most of the time, I eat the food on my plate in alphabetical order. If I don't, I freak out and rename the food. The other day, we were eating turkey and corn and mashed potatoes and stuff for dinner. I ate my corn and then my turkey and freaked out because I ate my T before my M. My dad told me they were whipped potatoes and it was all okay.
I crack my jaw when I'm thinking or bored.
When I'm nervous, I play with my earlobe.
When I don't want to tell you something or I'm lying, I won't look at you and I'll say, "I don't know."
I'm always tired.
I usually don't fall asleep in school. This is the first year I have.
I usually don't do my homework. This year is the first in a while that I'm actually doing it.
I think my brother is obsessive-compulsive or at least slightly.
I'm always cold.
I don't sweat.
My feet and hands are always cold.
I'm always hungry.
I don't eat at other people's houses.
I don't remember what my aunt Patty's voice sounded like anymore.
I don't care about money. I generally give it away to people randomly. I hate spending money and only spend it on other people.
If I could, I wouldn't change anything about myself.
My biological clock is ringing. I can't wait until I'm mature enough to have a baby and start a family.
I get a bloody nose everytime I play basketball.
My mom has some bad hormone balance and is on uppers. It scares me.
I'm afraid of my sister growing up to the age and place I am in life now. It's horrible, high school, teenage years... It's the worst time in my life and I can't wait until it's gone.
I was a cheerleader for the basketball team in my elementary school here in Michigan.
My mom and I dance in the kitchen sometimes.
I can't remember the last time my parents have slept in the same bed.
That's all I can think of right now but there's probably a lot more.
I love you all.

Nick somehow got out of work early and stopped by.
Guess who doesn't like having his picture taken (or at least doesn't like me taking or having pictures of him).
Read more..
I skillfully got a picture of him (that's my living room in the background).

And now I'm quite content.
I love that picture of him. It's so cute.
I was tempted to take a picture of him while he was sleeping but I didn't.

Armor for Sleep is in Detroit today. And I didn't find out until just now.
It's frustrating. 10 bucks. 7:30. If I had found out anytime before now, I might have been able to go. My dad's in Detroit right now.
Anyway, Armor for Sleep. The 28th. Spokane. The Big Dipper. Their site doesn't have a calendar on it or anything. The address is on there though. And so is the phone number.
Switchfoot is in Detroit on Freya's Day.
My mom couldn't sleep the other night. It was 5 in the morning and she was watching QVC. She ended up ordering a pre-lit Christmas tree. I must admit, it looks pretty awesome.
My mom is a major Christmas person. She plans on putting up the tree earlier and earlier each year. She was geeked that someone on 10 Mile had two Christmas trees up already.
She says we're putting up the tree when it comes.
I have no homework tonight.
Something Corporate is coming to Ferris on November 18th. It'd be cool to go if I cared more about the band.
Everyday Sunday is coming to Skelletones on the 28th. I likes thems. It's only $8 too. Hmm. Remind me to tell Nick about that.
I hope Morrissey comes around sometime. That would rock.
Um. I think I'm done. I can't think of anymore bands to rant or gasp about.
I love you all.

List of things to give up this year for new years:
Quality conversations...the kind where you talk about stuff that is actually important and meaningful.
"Love" or the idea of it
Lonliness
Jealousy
Hate (or strongly disliking...)
Meat or possibly just cheeseburgers and fast food.
