I'll Have 30 Sliders, 3 Onion Rings, And A Small Coke

If this hasn't turned out to be the most outrageously...outrageous weekend of my life, then I'll be damned. Its been a crazy couple of days filled with ups and downs and some smooth bumps in between. Lets start with Friday. I was planning the whole day to go with Ian, Scott, and Ben to this little punk rock cafe in LaPorte. Its called like Java Jim's, or something along that lines. I get home and everyone's gone, now I'm not surprised by this I was just wondering where everyone was. I just killed some time until anround 8:30 when Ian called and said that they were leaving. So, I print off a map and get ready to go when the phone rings. I pick it up and its my Aunt Vicki. I was like hey whats up. She just says I'm at the hospital. I ask her why concerningly (not sure if that is a real word.) But she says your mom fell. I asked her what she meant by she fell. I guess for a couple of weeks now, my moms leg will just spontaneously go numb. Imagine if your leg falls asleep, kind of like that. Story goes, she was taking out the trash and this happened. Along with that her arm went numb and slowly the rest of the left side of her body. She fell to her knees and what "paralyzed" for about 5 minutes. Then she got movement back. Understandably so, she got scared and had my brother take her to the hospital. Turns out the doctors said she had a minor stroke. That has had me worried for the past couple of days. It really concerns me though because she used to smoke, she quit for about 3 years, then she started to smoke again. I hate it. She acts like she doesn't but the whole family knows she does. I think thats part of the problem. What is frustrating the most is even after the fact that this happened, she's still going to do it. I wish she would stop. They did some tests on her and they are going to do some more to find the direct root of the problem. She chose to come home, I don't know how wise that decision was. That stopped me from going anywhere Friday night, my mom is more important than my friends. I get a little sleep and bum away the day on Saturday. I drove around town and spend a couple of hours at Barnes and Nobles. I picked up Ryan and Matt and we went to Best Buy just to browse like we often do. Then I get this huge rumble in my stomach. I hadn't eaten anything all day. A little light bulb flickered in my head, we need to go to White Castle. The nearest one to Granger is in Michigan City. Its only about 45 minutes away. Around 10:00 Ryan, Dan, Ian, and myself took my car and made a grand journey to White Castle. As the title of this entry states, I ordered a lot. I ate about 15 sliders and 2 orders of the rings. I took the rest home to hold me over for the next couple of days. I have about ten left as we speak. It was SOOOOOOOOO delicious. Ryan took a picture of me and my food. Ian made this cool little robot thing out of White Castle boxes, I was mighty impressed with his creativity skills. We were going to take a picture of a restaurant across the street, it was called Shoops. I just wanted to show it to Dave, I thought it was funny. Then I pulled my car over on the way back home and Ryan took a picture of us standing next to a billboard of "Phil". I don't know who the hell Phil is, but it was a funny looking billboard. It was a must. End Saturday. Today I just chilled at work all day. I had to do one of the most humilating things in my life. They made me wear the chicken suit. I no longer have my pride or my dignity. For about a half hour I stood outside of a church in a giant chicken suit. I was just waiting for God to throw a lightning bolt down and smite me for desicrating his church. I was like a holy chicken. That was the only fun thing that happened today. Now I'm sitting here pondering life. So many questions jumbling in my head. Just some things I need to do. I need to get a new job with better pay, I need to find out what I'm going to do after high school, more than anything though...I want a girlfriend. *sigh* So much stress, so much sorrow. But, life doesn't really suck, I'm just complaining. I think that covers it for now. I'm gonna write to Caitlin and let her know whats up. Shes offered to be there for me right now, and that means a lot to me. I love ya Caitlin, you're awesome!!! I'm gonna go frolick in the autumn mist, in a land called Honah Lee...if only it where autumn. DAMN!!!
