Last night was so much fun i had to go home and shower!!
HAHAHAHA! Weeeeell, it WAS fun and all! i got there early and found out that they discontinued the buffet so i ordered a small pizza and salad and we ate. Then, i read Roni's library book, Pappa Gatto and then looked at all the beautiful pictures in it for a while more. Roni was a little irritated because i wouldn't buy her tokens until after Naomi got there, but she watched cartoons for a while and was fine. Next was Naomi and Sprout and i GOT A HUG!!!! (i actually got TWO hugs the night of her party and i was so blissed but i totally forgot to put it in here the next day since i was so tired.) They ate and i bought a few tokens and the kids played some then Tonya arrived with her Lil' Dumplin' and i got to play with the baby! She is such a cute kid! Tonya is so lucky! Next, Tonya's Bro-in-law and his wife showed up and ate. (They are pretty cool, but it's weird to see him now when the last time i saw him he was an awful 13-year-old! i remember thinking he would NEVER grow up . . . but he turned out pretty nice, and married a really sweet girl.) i know i didn't play and run around as much as normal and i'm sorry, but i was not really wanting to move once i got all comfy . . . still some pain and i have become clumsier and more loopy than usual due to that. i'm glad that you guys had fun playing and i'm really sorry i just couldn't join you!
Finally, my hero and his NORMAL friend (HAHAHAHAHA!) got there to receive hugs and love for remembering my CDs!!!! And for being there, too, of course, since i have nothing but love for the guys . . . it was just EXTRA special since i have been hearing ABOUT the musical beauty awaiting me and just couldn't HEAR it. Rizzn's new glasses are just WOW and i love them! They are tiny and hip and perfect. i would actually wear my glasses if they were that cool, but alas, they are not and so i wear my contacts and deal with it.
We all kinda just sat about at the fish-tank table on the huge comfy couches and talked about family and wasps and setting bugs on fire and other stuff that burns nicely. It was really fun to just chill with my kind of adults for a while.
Now is where i explain about the shower ~ Roni had walked past a drink on the table and spilled it all over herself and i'd laughed and told her to mop it up and go to the bathroom to get more towels. She was laughing, too. It was funny. Then, i was sitting there, talking to Rizzn and i had my drink i my hand. i was leaning way back on the couch . . . i tipped my cup to drink . . . i looked at my straw . . . i tipped some more and dumped my drink right down my shirt . . . it was cold. We were both laughing and i was trying to mop up soda and it felt all sticky and Crackbaby missed the amusement so he asked if i was going to do it again and i smiled but declined. i was almost afraid to drink any more . . . and it was only Wild Cherry Pepsi!
i didn't want to leave. It was too much fun to have people to talk to and i don't really miss it until i have it there. i was telling them last night that i had come home on Tuesday night kinda late and looked around in the half light from the porch light through the open front door and i realized i don't live in MY apartment ~ i live in Roni's apartment. It is decorated for her and the bedroom with the queen sized bed is hers and i even have a handicapped accessible unit so all the light switches are at her height. it took some getting used to the switches and the counters being so short ~ it's like living in a munchkin house. Very odd and surreal at first. i made her a home. One where she is always safe and happy, even when we fight, she knows it won't last and we'll be snuggling and tickling and reading something in no time. i just feel like a giant living in a fairy princess' home.
i miss talking to people my {mental} age. (i just can't seem to be able to take large doses of real adults since i am so unused to them.)
