05/04/2003 entry: "I don't know what I titled this..."

It feels good to be home. I love hanging out with my friends, but sometimes you just want to stop and sit at home and go to sleep.

Sarah went out to the bars again tonight, which is cool. I got back late, so I'll have to hear her stories tomorrow. Sara and Nia came over around 9pm, and we went to downtown Chicago for a change. We went to the Pick Me Up cafe, because Sara had been expressing some desire to go there lately. Parking was HELL! And so was trying to find our way back to the car! Shit we almost got lost. And I get freaked out easily in Chicago, because it's very unfamiliar and everything. So here's me, walking kind of fast and totally focusing on not getting mugged or injured in any way. Not that we were in a bad neighborhood, we weren't really. I just don't trust any place at night, to be honest. I get a little nervous in Naperville, even.

But Nia and Sara were walking a little slow, I kept having to slow down for them. And Nia was being a tad goofy and kept stopping to check out flowers on trees. But, we found the car.

By that time, we had to go straight back because it was like 1am. So we went to Sara's house so Nia could get her car off the street before 2am, and Sara drove me back here. She's my hero for doing all that driving.

Nia finally got to see my room, she said it was cute :D It is. It's small, but it's enough for me. I can't necessarily have tons of people over in here, but I don't have that many friends anyways :)

Ugh, I don't feel so good. Damn that coffee at the cafe.. Ugh. It was called a Zombie, and it had 3 shots of espresso, 2 cups of coffee, and milk or something. Yeah. I always take places up on their challenges. I drank the Racehorse at the cafe here in downtown Naperville. I can't help it, I see the recipe with the most espresso in it and say, "I'll bet I can handle that." I guess I can, it's just my stomach can be fairly sensitive under certain conditions and my dinner tonight wasn't exactly the healthiest thing in the world.

It doesn't keep me up all night like it does with some people. The amount of caffeine in coffee represents how hard I will crash after the buzz comes. And I am crashed. Err.. yes.

Tonight has been incredibly interesting though. The past few days have been incredibly interesting in general, but haha yeah. I totally love my California friends, I miss this online-thang we've got going. Everytime I read one of their posts or comments I either smile like nobody's business or start laughing to an equal degree. I adore Kari too, I think I just place her in the California friends category cause she really should be out there :) So when I say that, I mean her too.

I'm sooo tired and have been typing sooo much and I want sleep soo bad. Mmmmmph.
