ambivalent

Notes on Life as of...yesterday:

#1
I played tennis with my dad yesterday. Its not a lesson, but every point ends with a comment of some sort regardless.

To me:
"Shorten your swing!"
"Hit through the ball!"

Its funny because no matter which mistake I make, my dad decides it is one of those two options.

He could probably start a riot if he wasn't playing tennis and if it wasn't in first person.

To himself:
"That was PA-the-tic!"
"I'm terrible"
"I am so BAD!!"
or my favorite...
"Arrrrrrrrrgh-AHH!"

#2
Spending time at my house is way better than I thought. Why did I stay at my condo over break!! There's billiards, big TVs, comfortable couches, a mini fridge, the whole basement to myself...so great!

Oh, I suddenly remember why. I didn't have a bedroom. But my mom just put a bed in my old room, so now its perfect. It used to be Antigone's room, but we keep her in the basement now.

#3
I thought I wanted to go out last night, but everyone I talked to was busy. Or doing something I won't do. But it turned out that spending time alone was exactly what I needed! I used to be such a loner...I miss that. I got to relax. And although I couldn't work on my song because I left my guitar at my condo, I made some serious progress on my script. I think it will take probably two or three more months to complete both the script and the story board. Ahhhhh! I can't wait!

#4
Oh the marvelous bathroom! The spacious shower and the bathtub! The soaps, oils, and lotions! Oh man there's nothing better.

That's all I think I want...a giant bathroom...a private bathhouse! A hot tub maybe, and a shower that's more of a room with waterfalls!

That's it. I don't need large televisions, nice car, etc, etc, etc...just the bathroom. That's all I want. To be clean and happy.

There's that old saying about growing fat (meaning becoming successful and rich). But it should be clean. No one wants to be fat anymore; its outdated.
