so for halloween i had no costume... so i found a white sheet and cut eye-holes. i was a ghost. BOO.
we went trick-or-treating for a while, got egged, witnessed a blackout, did a 5-6 part harmony of "trick or treeeeats", got some loot, and then headed back to kate's house. there, we met emily and katelyn who had gone out to get shaving cream (stores were out, so they got shaving gel, which was okay) and then some people changed into different clothes (i left my sheet on) for the shaving cream fight on kate's lawn. which was SO MUCH FUN. we were COATED in shaving cream. except for frank. magically, all the shaving cream on him was gone. so we carefully walked to kate's bathroom and took showers and borrowed some of kate's clothes. some went out to the cemetary to play manhunt, and others went upstairs to watch scary movies, but me and katelyn sat in kate's tv room talking about various things. and then we went upstairs later to go watch the movie. and then me and ada had to go. meanwhile, my mom's like LIVING in kate's house, because her mom and mine have like BONDED, and my mom was going to like just drop me off and go, but mrs. laird is like "no, come in!" and she like never left.
and today i went college hunting with my mom. we went up to albany (two and a half hours) to see the college of st. rose. which is really nice. it's like second only to franklin pierce to me. we were driving home at like six, and 87 splits off into the palisades parkway on the left and the garden state on the right, and in my head i'm like "GO RIGHT, MOM! GO RIGHT!" but even if we did go to new jersey, i wouldn't know where to find Q anyway.
i think my head is slowly getting mushier and mushier. it all began on saturday night. below is a time-line.
+ Q gives me gravitation. GRAVITATION. i got quasi-gay-porn. my heart went *squish* i practically TACKLED him. that was mush number one.
+ mush number two occured near the end of the party when we were all listening to billy joel. found out that Q likes billy joel. saw him singing at some points. thought it was adorable. we were listenting to "you may be right" and one of my favorite lyrics in that song are like "alone in your electric chair, i told you dirty jokes until you smiled" and i've always wanted someone to do that, just like tell me dirty jokes to cheer me up. later, i'm sitting on my front steps with max and Q is standing nearby and he tells a couple knock-knock jokes, and then he tells this fabulous dirty joke. my stomach went *squiggle* and though i'd heard the joke before, i thought it was so cute. i don't know if he did it intentionally. extra points if he did, but still, it was cute.
+ mush numbero tres. i'm walking across carissa's lawn shoeless to knock on carissa's basement window and tell her to move it. Q follows me over the lawn. that was like semi-mush right there. and then i guess he looks down at my feet because i'm limping (hurt my foot earlier in the night) and he's like "aren't your feet cold?" my mouth said "nah, they're fine" but my head was like squealing "he inquired upon the state of my feet!!"
+ mush four. H and carissa are like death-gripping each other on their side of the car, and i'm on the other side with Q when he goes to hug me. i just didn't freaking want to let go. i could have happily stood there all night with no shoes on and cold feet. i think THIS was the point when i started thinking of me and Q as meandQ, like i think of carissa and H as carissandH. it was like a big, heavy, red brick slamming into the side of my head. like WHOOSH. and now i'm experiencing that kinda-good-but-really-bad feeling that H says he and carissa get all the time where if i don't see Q this weekend i might EXPLODE. i'm actually getting ACTUAL couply feelings. this has never happened before. i didn't think i was CAPABLE of feeling anything like that. but i guess i can. now i can.
