White Noise.

Is that background noise that you hear when you are on the phone with someone when they don't talk. I heard that today right before she said "I'm done." And it wasn't the best thing in the world obviously. I'm sorry for my 2 days absence, I have been trying to save a relationship, which didn't work. But for now, Daniel is coming to get me so we can hang out. Single again. This is weird. Oh well. I shall have much to get used to within the next few weeks. I'm trading in my iphone, so, that will be a weird adjustment. Right now I am jamming. Later today I will stop by her place to drop off some stuff. But other than that we will continue to be friends and such.

Thanks for all my friends!!!

Everything Mac, Everything Else.

This is the way that Apple organizes the instruction booklets/software that come with any new Apple product. They put all the stuff you need to know about the product you bought into "Everything Mac" and anything in general that is already generally known about the product, or miscellaneous software that is already installed on the product. This is how most of us tend to organize our lives. There are a few things we find most important that we feel need their own category and breaking down of things, and then we feel that there is just everything else that life comes with all one bullet point on the keynote of life. For me, mine would be "Everything Courtney/Friends/Family/Work/Guitar/Phone" and "Everything Else" of course. And that's how today was for me.

My day started off with me waking up once again staring at the clock across from my bed. It read, "10:38". I looked around, wondering what in this dismal place I call my home was worth waking up for...well...I remembered that today was the day Courtney would call and we would finally end our "break". I checked my phone. "Texts: Twitter(4), Daniel Welch (1); Missed Calls: Courtney Cona...(1); Voicemails: Courtney Cona...(1)" Yes!! I was so happy. I listened to the voice mail, definitely not her best, but it was still great to hear her voice. I called her, and we talked for like an hour. Discussing things that went on during the break, and things we planned on doing today, and things we planned on doing in the future. But after our call, I went with my mom shopping again, this time for specific camping things.

We got 2 pairs of swim trunks, 2 pairs of shorts, and a stuffed cow. Well, I got the stuffed cow...it's awesome. And I just realized something random. Why is it, that when we put a period at the end of a sentence, we must capitalize the letter that follows, yet, when we put three periods (aka ellipsis) we don't capitalize the letter after those three times as much? Hm...anyway...moving on. We left the mall and went to Wal Mart, and bought some other camping supplies. I got a snorkeling set, which is awesome and works great. I also got a lock for my locker at the gym and some Coca-Cola pajama pants. Then we went to Sports Authority, always skeptical of when I enter due to when I broke my leg in a sporting goods store in Los Angeles 4 years ago, but no matter. Courtney called me, and we talked while I was getting my water shoes, and such. Then she had to go, and I was on my home.

When I got home, I jumped in the pool and tested my new snorkel equipment, which works amazingly. Then went to shower and go to work at 5:30. Then, while at work, I forgot to give the flowers to the trumpeters for games, which made them most upset, and then I finished working, and went home, and here I am. Courtney and I talked again, breifly, but still no call, which kinda made me feel sad, but I know she loves me!!

Surfer of the Year

I have a fake made cover of "Transworld Surf Magazine" where it features me on the cover surfing in South Padre last year during the first camping trip we took out there. To be honest, when I first went, I didn't go with the most optimistic attitude, but this year, for some reason, I am really excited about going. I can't wait, honestly. I guess my sense of adventure is more overpowering than my sense to get eaten alive by mosquitoes. But after one week of no blogging, I will probably have to take a journal or something so I can just transfer my logs to blogs. We shall see.

Today, I woke up around 9:30, showered, ate, and went to McDonalds. I had to be at work extra early today because of the Boy Scout stuff that was going on again. I got to sign autographs and take pictures with the guests, which I really enjoy, so that was fun. Then two shows later, and a draining of energy, I left the castle. While waiting on my ride, I talked to Keri and she was inviting to the Backyard Beach Bar thing, but I couldn't go because my parents had just arrived and it would have been rude to have them leave right as they got there. But I told Keri she could swim at my house and bring her own booze, so it's all good. I wouldn't participate in the boozing as they call it, but I would definitely enjoy a Coca Cola while the festivities were going on.

On the ride back home and then to go out to eat, I learned something that happened yesterday during my cousins party at my house that I am nor particularly happy about. Apparently, my mother had noticed people using my computer, and being the awesome mom that she is, got my dad to get them off of it. I don't know what they were doing, but they are lucky I didn't catch them, or else I would have bored them with cool geeky stuff about the iMac that they probably wouldn't have enjoyed, but I would have! Haha! While at dinner tonight, I had some of the spiciest Jamaican Jerk Chicken I have ever had, but it was delicious. I also had some fried okra and salad. Yum!

And then we came home, and my sister and I got on the computers and such and I tried to write a song, but I just wasn't feeling it tonight. One thing I am super excited about is tomorrow, I might get to see Courtney!! It's been so long, but the wait was worth it for all the self realization that occurred within me and I'm sure what occurred within her as well. I can't wait. But for now, bedtime.
