Morgan's Musings

Monday Nov. 11th, 2002 - 5:20 PM

Good evening friends! Allow me to retort the circumstances that made up my weekend:

Friday:"Teacher says everytime a bell rings, an angel gets its wings...everytime a car-horn honks, a fat-a$$ dies!,"

Friday...I gathered up things to take back, and got a list of things to bring back as I do every weekend. Before I left though, Andypants asked another test of me--a purity test. He asked all sorts of questions concerning vices and virtues (and one about cats, which we won't get into), and the end result was that I am 70% pure. A whopping 10% more than my roomate! We also had an interesting discussion about heaven & not-quite heaven (not at all!). "This is as boring as hell," was Andypants's one-line review of a book . But then he retracts his statement, on the grounds that the devil's stomping grounds would be frightening and exciting. "You like that kinda stuff though," I told him. "So it wouldn't be much of a punishment." So, he probably would be bored if he had to go.

I had to go that afternoon. Went to the DMV that afternoon to renew my learner's permit . Yes, it had been more than a whole year since I had gotten the thing, and I hadn't made it to the provisional stage yet! I reapplied a form, registering to vote as well, before taking a quick eye & (traffic) law test.

Afterward, I went home, trying to tidy up my room, which wasn't too messy until person(s) unknown kept going into it while I was gone, knocking stuff down and leaving it that way! Sister or Mom, probably...

Saturday:Shopping with Money

I put a rebate check I got from the state comptroller for a loan into my account at the bank in town, before going off to spend just a little of it for things needed at the dorm--a toilet brush and cleanser. Good stuff.

For the life of me, as I cleaned my room, I couldn't find stuff! For example, I couldn't find my umbrella--I have one here, but I own two--where'd it go? It was frustrating.

I also saw Showtime at the Apollo again, it's talented (and not so) amateurs entertaining me. If you have never seen this show, and you are white, I would like you to find your favorite minority friend and watch it with them. It'll be a fun experience for the both of you! If Aly was black, she'd be Kiki Shephard . :)

Sunday:Time Just Flew

Time just flew today. One second, I'm awake, the next I'm taking a relaxing bath, the next, I'm eating spaghetti, biscuits, and a vegetable for dinner, and all the milliseconds in between I am trying to clean up my room and find stuff!!! It wasn't fun, but the time just flew.

Things did liven up the night I returned to the university. Apparently, I had missed the memo that a Good Charlotte concert was today, and I saw streams of folk exiting from the activities center as I was coming into the campus. I open the door, and to my surprise, it's like an early Easter in my room! A dozen eggs were all over the bed's green, like an Easter egg hunt or a chicken ovulated all over the sheets. "A chicken came and wanted to have your children--BUCK--BUCK--" said the white board over my bed...this was probably in reference to what was discovered Friday , but let's not get into that, because Andypants popped in, back from the concert. We were in the throes of an intense egg-toss game when the phone rang. Emily had just left, but she was coming back with two friends who wished to see me! Soon she arrived, with a charming charm bracelet made up of Micro Machines on her wrist (which reminded me of an obscure remark I made here about Joanna), and two new people behind her! Stacy of Rhode Island and Megan of New Jersey ! It was a pleasure to meet them--Stacy had reddish hair and a few freckles, and a warm smile on her face. She also had nice toes (compared to some people... :) ), as I looked at her sandals. I then looked up again to see Megan. Sandy brown bangs branched over her forehead, and the words "Good Charlotte" were spread out alluringly over her new tight t-shirt. They introduced themselves, and when they began to quote phrases from this online diary, I knew they were loyal readers here to meet the author! It was so fun to meet those who read this that I don't know personally! And Stacy & Megan are only a small sweet statistical sampling of my fan club--apparently, lots of their classmates at Marymount read this often, including Emily's roomate, a devout red-headed Texan who reads as a "guilty pleasure"!

We talked and talked and talked about all sorts of stuff--the concert, Andypants and Emily's school chums ("Singleton!?!" he said), college plans, and a lot about my life, the behind-the-scenes of "Morgan's Musings" here, like pseudonyms (JeriCari Maccaroni), obscure references (who is Miriam Roshan, the origins of my roomate's nickname) and more! Megan gave me a postcard about pink sheep (don't ask...) as a gift! It was great.

Time just flew. They left late into the night. I'm sure Stacy and Megan will be delighted to see this, and brag to their many Marymount friends!

I can't wait to meet the Texan woman! That'll be fun, I'm sure! Okay, gotta go, loyal readers--thanks for stoppin' by!

Next time--Work flashbacks, pics, have you seen the guestbook yet
