The Guillotine... Ouchie

So the other day Alexis and I left Legos early to go to Teen Girls' Movie night. We had a total blast! But I missed my guy buddies. It was at this point I realized - Hey! Nearly all of my closest friends are guys! Not that it matters at all to me, it just sucks when there's something like, I don't know, a girls only event and I hardly know anyone. So we set off. We were using our GPS and every time we failed to execute perfectly the precise turns we would end up on the wrong street and our GPS would automatically create a new route for us, telling us to circle the block or some nonsense. Anyways we finally made it! When we got there Emily was already there with our hostess, Hannah! After that arrived Maddy, Claire, Sarah, Catherine, and Morgan. So yeah, I hadn't even MET half the girls there. They had the tiniest birds I have ever seen!! We set up Guitar Hero, but there was much trouble in the setup and by the time it was ready to go we were called in to make our pizzas. We never ended up getting to play Guitar Hero sadly. They had the greatest junk food ever!! Potato chips, Cheetos, M&Ms, Hot Tamales, Junior Mints, Whoppers, Chex Mix and more I think! I had never tasted Hot Tamales before and Emily siad she had, she said she didn't like them - "Too spicy." Of course this sealed her fate as absolutely HAVING to taste them during that evening! So we just chilled and talked a LOT! Em, as usual, got some quite interesting photos of different people! Hannah had all theses Lego buildings up on this shelf like area near the roof. She had a house, which was her favorite, she said, because it actually had little furniture in there and everything. She had a Cinema, and a lot of other ones I can't remember! So when our pizza was done we started the movie, 13 Going On 30. It was interesting, definitely had its funny parts, I know I've seen it before with my cousin Sydney, way back when we were best friends! I must've been like 8. I wasn't that into it then - she liked that kind of thing. In fact I distinctly remember her watching Grease during that same visit and I couldn't sit still long enough to catch anything or even care. It puzzled me then, of course, because "she's younger than me"! Anyways the movie finally ended, and we all did what now? Went outside into the dark to play Ninja on the trampoline, of course! Did I mention it was really dark? We ended up back inside though and once we were all sitting down on the couches we couldn't stop laughing out hysterically, probably thanks to the abundance of sugar we'd consumed by this point! Lex and Em decided to eat a Hot Tamale each, together and I videotaped it, unbeknownst to the recipients until after the incident was over. Then the whole roomful of us decided to do it! Em got out of it by videoing it. One girl, Catherine, ate twelve then at once!! I ate only three because I'd gotten mine last and only three were left in the box! So everyone was huffing and puffing and squealing and attempting to unglue their jaws and also trying to keep the stuff in their mouths and other various things! Very possibly the funniest vid Em's ever taken! I'm fairly sure it is! I told her, "Maybe even better than Zach launching himself at that wall!" Her reply was, "Nothing will ever be as funny as that!" We gave Em a ride home afterward, and asked if Zach had been unhappy about not being able to go to a teen event Em got to go to, and Em said, "No, he's watching Iron Man 2. I didn't really like the first one. Now he can watch without interruption!" The next day we had a party for Abbie, Bradley and great grandpa Coldenhoff, whose birthdays were all in October. We had a few more relatives born in that month, but they couldn't make it there. It was super fun, mom made cupcakes (including sugar free ones for the diabetics - Grandpa Coldenhoff and Grandpa Butch). Grandpa Butch gave me another book to read, history of course. It is really thick too, but the print is larger so it's easier for me to read and I'm really enjoying it actually! You know how I am about small print. It's not that I can't read it, it's just that it annoys me greatly mentally and is so not cool. I seriously postponed my reading of the Lord 0f the Rings because the first version I got my hands on had tiny print, so I got the special version for people who have glasses for reading!! Today we relaxed. It's been a nice break in our hectic, every day we're going somewhere schedule!! We watched To Save A Life. I'd heard a lot about the movie which made me more cautious, surreptitious at the beginning. But it was a really great movie actually. I've been doing a lot of history lately. Today I was reading up on the Guillotine. It was pretty favored for executions because it was believed to be the fastest most painless death. Very popular when Jean Paul Marat was in a leadership position in France, it was how Marie Antionette died, and, eventually, Jean Paul humself - the obssesive man!. And lots more fun facts too!! Hurray Hurrah!! Anyways so Laterz!!
