Today was a perdy long day actually, but it was very fun. yay for that. I went to work bright and early as usual and had the kiddies kiss me, hug me, say they love me, play with me, spit on me, pull on my hair, jump on me scratch me...etc. yep, what a glorious day. I made a new best friend this week, did I tell you? ...she's very nice actually. Really friendly and she tends to sing a lot, but it's fun to sit and listen to her cuz she's good. She likes to make up games and even though they sometimes suck, I don't mind because dispite the fact that she's five, she's a friend. That's one...yes!
After work I went home, showered, and Heidi picked me up and we met Kat in the parking lot and went to Rockland, NY and the palacaids mall...[sp?]. Was really fun. then we took a trip down memory lane...you see, Kat grew up in Rockland so she showed us the playground where her exboyfriend kissed her..[cute story there], and her highschool, some really good food markets *rubs belly*. We got some bread at this deli...so good. and they had some huge ass cookies, they were bigger than my hand! But I guess that doesn't say much since my hands are all small and asian. Then we were off to her house, we drove around for a while and went to this center which reminds me of sono. It's real nice and is by the water. We went to the docks and just watched the water and the boats. I felt so relaxed at that moment. It was around 7:30 so the sun was starting to set and everything was...perfect. I didn't want to leave but we had to hit the road and head home. If I lived near there, I would go to that dock everyday and just sit there and think about everything...it would be my runaway spot. Most definitely. But instead, I live in bumblefuck. No place to run...maybe the woods? up in a tree? whoop dee do.
It was nice seeing her old neighborhood and seeing where she grew up and where she did all the kat things...next week we're going to go to Manhatten to see all the places where I grew up. I'm so excited. Last time when I was in the city with my pop, we went to our old apartment and everything was different. I was so depressed. The bakery that I religiously went to every saturday morning with my dad was no longer exsistant. Along with the superintendant on my building..he wasn't there to water the plants that ran along the steps or to vacuum [sp?] the hallways. They completely changed it. The two mean dogs that always scared me when I walked down the street wheren't outside on the front steps of the building to the right with their blind owner. My friends no longer lived across, down the street or in the apartment under mine. I went up the elevator where I remember getting my finger stuck in when I was six and went up to my apartment...My apartment wasn't even mine anymore...well, it hasn't been for a while. But for a moment I hated the people who were behind that door in the corner on the hallway. I hated them for taking my room, for changing my patio that used to have my little blow-up pool and the flowers that I helped plant. I wanted to go inside and run to the patio and talk to the nice neighbors on the other side who talked to me and played sax or guitar while I would fall asleep. I wanted to bang the door and reclaim the space that was once mine. damn... I like it. That was last year when I last saw it. I miss being little and being able to run around on the street topless with the fire hydrant open. must.snap.out.of.it!
Kat dropped us back and went home because she felt sick. Heidi and I went to downtown westport and I showed her Toquethall. We saw jessie and Mindy at starbucks..they were all depressed because everyone's away for the summer. I can relate...when everyone get's back, I'm going to be gone...*sigh* sadly, no one was at toquethall or outside it. As a matter of fact, no one was downtown at all! We sat outside of Oscars at the tables and chatted our little hearts out. Then along came my craving for asian food so we both got springrolls from Ships. Was fun day to say the least. I'm tired now. so good night, and sweet dreams.
