MELTING ICE CUBES
(5:34pm)
listening to: "hurricane" by something corproate
oh my gawd. last night was so much fun. ashley meling and megan came over and spent the night and exchanged christmas presents. i loved my gifts, but i've gotta tell the funny part of the story, so i'll skip the santa stuff.
well, we were all having a little to drink. around 2am, meling showed of her bartending skills and made all three of us a gin and tonic (a "g&t" as she calls it). megs and i went downstairs into the garage and brought up some hard liquor to the upstairs pool room. the two of us took shots on the balcony. mine, however, didn't stay down, if you know what i mean.
*note: january 3, 2002 = the first time i've ever thrown up from alcohol, let alone one shot of whiskey.
megan and meling laughed their asses off at me, but i was soon feeling better and we started to play card games. megs and i kept losing to ashley, and everytime we did, we had to chug beer (corona, if you must know). so, as we got more and more intoxicated, megan experimented with drinks (meaning she mixed mountain dew, gin, tonic water, corona, and some hard liquor together - gross) and the three of us officially started a band.
meet our band: The Melting Ice Cubes of Death, Destruction, and Damage to Infinity and Beyond. we sing covers of songs like "buddy holly," which melin and i practiced harmonizing last night while megan tapped on her pretend drums. (see below)
megan aka "SQUIRREL" plays the drums and the violin. she's dyed her hair pink/red to stand out in the band, a true rebel.
ashley meling aka "NOVA" plays the triangle and the bass. she's our lead singer, and the "hot blonde surfer" that all the guys like.
ashley miller aka "WOMBAT" plays the piano and the electric guitar, but also does backing vocals. she's the brunette.
(remember: we were drunk when making this up. and i seem to remember saying something like "well, we need band nicknames... i get wombat. i called it first." i'm sure meling and megs were just about to fight over the nickname, too.)
so there's our band, we're prepared to make music videos and win MTV VMAs for our excellent creativity. (notice we didn't say anythin about our good singing skills, we are aware we suck, though ashley meling thinks she might actually be good if given the chance. she does not actually play the triangle, nor megan and drums, nor i the electric guitar, but i suppose we'd all like to learn.)
we had so much fun tonight.
emphasis on fun.

BIG O, LITTLE O
(9:14pm)
listening to: "take it off" by the donnas
i'm on my second drink
but i've had a few before
i'm trying hard to think
and i think that i want you on the floor
go on and take it off
you gotta shake it off baby for me
come on and break me off
cuz i get what i want and i like what i see
i'm so addicted to this song. it's so much fun.
ashley meling came over today for four hours. good clean fun. she and i decided we're going to get a video camcorder and record stupid jackass type things, edit them together, and make a tape with cool music background. we came up with some awesome ideas to film. these include making guys try on lingerie from frederick's, hurtful skateboarding stunts, and pretending to be in a band. wow, we'll have fun with that.
later on tonight, my mom and i were watching 'will and grace.' between commercials, my mom would flip to this woman's channel where they were talking about how hard it is for some women to reach orgasms. she started laughing, and made me watch it even though i wanted to leave.
adding to the embarrassment, in came my step-dad to watch the thirty minute documentary with us. hrmm... some of the women were recommended vibrators, and others to stop taking birth control pills. never again. never ever again.
i think i'm scarred for life.

FIRST
(7:32pm)
listening to: "highly evolved" by the vines
i really can't believe it's two thousand and three. this means one more year, and i'll be graduating. wow.
i had so much fun last night. instead of going out with matt and his billions of friends, i thought it'd be fun to hang with my family because i never do.
so, my mom made reservations for us to eat at the compass restaurant in the downtown phoenix hyatt hotel. it's called the compass, because it spins at the top of the top of the hotel. it took us one hour to make a complete 360 degrees turn. it gave me a chance to see all of phoenix at night, and it was really pretty, even though i hate arizona.
so here it is, the first. i've already made resolutions, most of which i'll never even think twice about. i'm just not good at that kind of stuff. however, i am on my sixth week of not biting my nails. yup, if i can do it, you can do it.
ashley and megan are still out of town, so it's a safe assumption to say that until the fourthj, when they get back, i'll be doing absolutely nothing unless it's tagging along with my parents.
happy new year to every one of you. hope you're enjoying the break!
