So I guess I already messed up on my New Years Resolution since I didn’t write a post yesterday. I was really angry too because I was on my way home from seeing Benjamin Button at 10:45 last night, and I thought about exactly what I was going to write. It was going to be short and sweet.
Don’t hold it against me though. I can explain. You see yesterday was a busy day for me. First, I had to wake up early to go to church. Then after church, I went to my grandmother’s house for lunch. From there, we went to my dad’s parents house so I could tell them goodbye. Then I was exhausted because I hadn’t slept well the night before, so I took about a two hour nap. When I woke up, I began packing.
Then Good Looking called and was complaining. He wanted to go to Barnes and Noble. And to the movies. And to Jason’s Deli. But I still had to pack all of my possessions for the long haul back to college. Plus, I knew my mom would want me to stay home for my last night before leaving today.
Nevertheless, I went downstairs and explained the situation to my mother. She told me I could go out with Good Looking and I was excited! I had been wanting to see Benjamin Button for a while, and when my brother would ask me if I’d seen it yet, he’d always respond to my negative response with, “I’m pretty sure you’re never going to see Benjamin Button.” So I had to make sure I did.
Little did I know, the movie is three hours long. So while I was planning to get home around 9:30 or 10:00, my plans were slightly thwarted, pushed back, if you will. Then, when I finally got home, I spent about an hour packing. By that time it was past midnight, and I realized it was too late.
So you see, I just didn’t have time! And then I had to leave at 8:00 this morning for the long 11 hour drive back to UCF, and now here I am! I think my body is going to collapse soon, but I don’t mind. I could use a good night’s rest. So, until tomorrow when I will write my thoughts on the movie…
Good night.
