11/27/2002 entry: "This doesn't seem right.."

So uhh.. I'm back home. And... it's been.. boring. Kind of.

I organized my room a bit more. I cleared off my desk (since my computer was left at school) and decided I needed to do something interesting with it so I'd have something to do there. So, I ran to the basement to see what glorious treasures I could find. Lo and behold, I found two really cool things that my parents still have: an old typewriter, and an old record player. The kind of record player that is in this thing, that looks like a suitcase. Yeah. So I grabbed both of those and I've been upstairs typing and listening to records for a little while.

I also found this old, pretty candleholder my mom has. And.. I found something else inside. Something very disturbing and gross. I don't know how many bugs there were, and what all of them were, but there were more than 3, one being a really weird looking centipede and the other two looking like spiders. With spider webbing kind of in the bottom, with the spiders/centipede. I don't know what exactly happened, or how it happened, but I have a working theory that they were attempting to have some sort of bug orgy, overdosed on heroin and suffocated in spider silk.

Or.. maybe the were all just really really stupid. Or they were trying to eat eachother. Who knows.

My point is, these bugs were in there, all dead. My mom cleaned them out (because, I admit, I'm a big wuss and I can't touch anything insect-like) but I dusted off this candleholder and now it's in my room. It's kind of brassy gold, like dirty antiqued- brassy gold, and then it has clearish green parts. It's very pretty. I'll have to take pictures and show you guys. Though, I think my digital camera can't hook up to this computer... yeah. Maybe I'll take real pictures and then scan them in? Hm. Either way. I'll try.

Well, I'm really hungry and my mom is making me soup. I'm hoping Sara will want to do something tonight, because I mean tomorrow IS thanksgiving, she can't be working then. And I don't start work til Monday. And, well, I'm lonely here. Though my entire family is here, it's not the same. I need peers. PEERS!! And, well, I miss Kevin too obviously. He's included in that peer group, but he's in his very own special little peer group. I'm trying to think of a clever name for his group, but everything I can think of isn't subtle enough. Not that I'm above (or below) saying possibly embarrassing, provocative and dirty things in my journal. Oh, no.

However, I have to go and eat. So, that's it from me. I don't know how much I'll actually post while I'm at home, I don't even know how often I'll be online to be honest.

I have baking to do tonight too. Hmm. Caramel Apple Bars, here I come. Will somebody please sound excited about my baking these things? Please?? I know I suck at it usually, but I'm really going to try not to this time.
