When friends come to my life, all the insane things happen!!!

So, this weekend was probably the best weekend ever in a long time of the times. I have had so much fun, and I feel like I've been restored to my feelings of being an effective person who is likeable and happy. I believe I've spoken on this situation before, but I will do so again. It is good to have new friends - new friends are certainly very good/awesome, and LaToya is one of my favorite people. It is also nice, however, to have people who know you from many places. It is easing to see people you have known for a long time, because you don't have to tell them about you. There is a certain level of understanding between you - and seeing the understanding between you and an old friend helps a new friend to know you better! Bottom line, it's comforting and wonderful.

Evan arrived here on Friday evening after an episode involving him possibly driving along some train tracks and finding a house at the end of the road with two empty suspicious cop cars at the end of it. I made sausage pasta for dinner, and it was all the delicious. We played MadLibs, watched Tank Girl, and ended up not going out because it was all the snowy and Emily and Danielle stayed home. We stayed up until 4 in the morning talking and catching up a laughing a lot - it was my favorite thing!

On Saturday, we woke up about 11 and had a little bit of the foods. I took Evan to see the places where I am mostly which involved the my office at the school, University Plaza, and I had just started to show him Vestal Parkway when Liz arrived. We went home and had tiny turkey sandwiches and chips with guacamole and salsa for lunch, and then we went to Lowe's to acquire pots and plants to fill my apartment with forms of life, which I love. We also went to Wal mart to acquire ice cube trays and replacement picture frame for the one with the picture of me and Annie making the muppet face in it, because it fell off my wall many times and became broken. Anyway, while we were looking for the ice cube trays, we ended up in the food section (because we could not find them) and we saw Scott, which was very distressing to me and I wish it had not happened. It is hard for me to believe this is coincidence. Liz and I call misfortunes such as tornadoes, and Evan and I call bizarre things such as the Woodsmen's Field Days and Carpet time, so when all three of us were together we called a bizarre unfortunate thing, personified by him. Also I have been living here since last semester, and I can assume pretty readily that he has lived here since then and I have not seen him at all until the day when my bizarro calling friends with me, and Evan wished earlier in the day that he might see Scott so that he might understand my former life. Also there was an omen of his presence in the form of a BOGO sign in the window of the Payless Shoes next door to Wal Mart. I do not think he saw me, which is super good because I would not have known what to say, and I hope that he continues to be unaware that I am in this place going to school near the place where he apparently lives. Evan has protected me from being seen by him, and I flew that place with great speed in order to avoid that situation a lot. Distressing. I had a nightmare about it where Evan and I were in wal mart running through the aisles trying to avoid him and everyone looked like him, and was wearing the same thing as him, but then the one person who did not look like him from the back turned out to be him, and I was confronted with him and did not know what to say at all. It was SO DISTRESSING.

After that Liz began to have a migraine, so we returned to my apartment where she napped for a moment while Evan had a shower and I did the internets. Then Liz went to return to her home, where she could sleep and could also not be driving in the dark. Evan and I left to go to dinner at Tony's, which was delicious as usual. When we were leaving, however, we encountered a man who was driving out of the woods next to my apartment building in a dilapidated red Land Rover stuck behind a snow bank and trying to drive through it. He honked at us as if to ask for help, at which point Evan and I looked at each other and got in my car without offering our help at all. I pulled my car out of its space, and the Land Rover was then behind me, apparently having broken through the bank and come down the hill. The crazy man in the driver's seat made a really excited-looking motion about it a lot. Then I drove to the road to drive away, and the man pulled up next to us. His window was down and he yelled many words at us that we could not understand. His front grill was filled with parts of trees and snow and dead plant life. He pulled away to the right and you could see that there was no rear windshield and that his back license plate was taped to the back of the backmost seat. He drove down airport road for approximately .8 seconds before veering off the road again onto not a road/the woods. It was really surreal and I wouldn't believe that it actually happened except for the fact that there are tracks coming down the hill next to the building.

After dinner, we went to see the concerto competition concert, which was very good. LaToya was awesome as usual, and I heard Stephanie play for the first time and was quite impressed by that. She has many forms of coordination that are foreign to me. Afterward we went to Mosquito for a bit, and then took Emily with us to Uno to meet LaToya after she went to the house of her B-team family. Then we went to Applebees because Uno was closing. Then we went home and went to sleep.

This morning, we had a nice big breakfast and hung out for awhile. Now I am doing much laundry and I am going to do some homework and also try to do some research to make my program notes happen. I do not want to write long program notes, but I think it is important to include some information about the pieces for people and also to prove that I am not dumb and can use the English language - much more than other people here and in fact, more than the head of our department (at least judging from the program notes at the Concerto concert last night). Anyway, that is my story and I am sticking to it. I have now recorded one of the best weekends ever. This means - all my friends, COME TO MY LIFE NOW!!!! :)
