Three Twenty

Once upon a time, there were two people who couldn't figure out when they "got together." They wondered and wondered. Finally, they were going to decide not to have one. But that was no fun. So they chose March 20, and it turned out to be a great decision. It was the first day of spring. The weather was perfect. The girl discovered her new favorite happy song, "Australia," by The Shins. It wasn't the best day ever, but it was a good, normal day. Around midnight or a little afterward, Wisconsin beat FSU in overtime in the NCAA tournament. I don't know if this will always be their special day, but it seems like a nice one.

Happy Anniversary. She sends her love.

A Story

Jerrod showed me this story about a burglary. If you have maybe fourty-ish minutes to spare... It is interesting.

Waiting for a Better Day

I think this is the first time I have skipped an entire month without posting on here. I feel kind of guilty for that.
I am still posting every Friday for the Power Bloggers. It is nerveracking wondering if I will run out of things to say for it.
I feel left out of things all the time now, for various reasons in various situations. It is sort of disappointing. But I think I need time to be alone. Tomorrow might be a good time for that when I am driving.
Someone's comment today got emailed to me. I wish I hadn't caused emotion in that realm to appear. I think it is hard to cheer people up by just writing in a personal blog. I always try to think of happy, cheerful things to add to blog posts in general. Much of the time, my aim is futile. Maybe it is because of the times I actually try. It doesn't work that way for me.
At times, I wish I were perfect and had everything I wanted. I guess a lot of people feel that way. Then I think, if I had everything, then wouldn't I be extremely ungrateful? That would happen pretty easily.
They say that a girl's hormones fluctuate each month. But I think it is quite ridiculous that these days, I end up tearing up at least every few days. I actually haven't been having trouble with school yet. (Now watch it hit me in the face on Monday because I said that.)
I, I, I... Again, I have to warn you that this is a personal blog, so I'm going to be saying "I" a lot.
I was just informed that I made an "abstinence innuendo." I am marginally proud of that.
I am excited about tomorrow afternoon. They say it is beautiful there.
If you are a guy, I just want you to know that I learned recently that you are not allowed to touch, hug, pat, or look at me in any way. I'm not really sure what would happen if you did. If I were a guy, I wouldn't be having any sort of problem with this with me anyway, though. I would tell you if you were allowed to communicate with me, but it wouldn't make any sense because then, I would be communicating with you, which is a bit hypocritical.
The weather is going to be really amazing tomorrow. Not just in Texas, as univision.com kindly showed me in Spanish today, but all over where I many of us live.
Thank you for reading.

Vero

I went to check the final results, and they are still different from when they called us back down...
Don't look unless you want to.

I forgot to tell you about that night.

Monday night.
I stood in my room, wondering if I should. I had already talked to you earlier that day, so it wasn't as if I was completely cut off from communication that day. But suddenly, I felt the urge, a few minutes after 10:10pm, to call you and say, "I am really happy because I love you!" I was actually going to do it, maybe.
I went to get some water. My parents' door was open on that side of the house.
Walk back.
-phone vibrates-
Turns out Jack called me to tell me his mom couldn't give us a ride home the next day.
Aw man, I don't want to end my night with a call from the brother.
So I stood there for a while longer. If I did it I'd have to whisper really quietly.
Finally, I turned off the light and went to sleep.

Back There

I decided to look back at last year's January posts. It was slightly awful. But, some of the happy little memories sparked my mind, and I'm glad to have read them again.

This is for William: GIANT FIGHTING ROBOTS
I sort of miss the rain. And walking through the rain. And thinking through the rain. And looking through the rain. And smiling and laughing through the rain. That's the best one. Maybe.

On, Wisconsin! On, Wisconsin!

I was walking out of Wal*mart, when a group of guys saw my shirt. One of them said, "Wisconsin?" So I replied, "Yeah, Wisconsin!" Then, this more jerkish guy did the Seminole chop while saying, "Noles, baby!" That just went to show how obnoxious Nole fans can be...
I was talking about the game with one of my best friends, when he suddenly changed the subject. It ended up like this.
Me: Is it funny to be kissed by you?
[Friend]: Idk would you like to find out
;)
Also, we noticed that Joseph's Facebook account seems to have disappeared. I hope you're okay, man.
We went to three car dealership places today. It was so tiring. No, we didn't get one.

Ryan's Christmas Chain
