Surprise!

Well, a blog update is probably in order. The events of the last couple days have been quite exciting. Let's start with Wednesday. It appeared to be just a regular day at play practice. And it was. Play practice was totally normal, minus the strange behavior of people throughout the day. I knew something was up, but I wasn't quite sure what it was.

After play practice, I drove over to Craig's house, and sat outside in my van while waiting for he and Geoff to arrive at his house. During my wait, I spotted Mr. DK walking across the parking lot of the Mormon church. I drove upto him and I could tell he wanted a ride, so I just came out and asked him if he needed a ride. He quickly said, "sure." He got in, and we had a little small talk on the way to his house. I dropped him off and headed back to Craig's house.

Right after I arrived at Craig's, they pulled up. We went into Craig's basement and played XBox as usual. Craig then got a phone call from "Geoff's Grandpa," saying that we could head over to the hotel that "Geoff's grandparents were staying at." We departed, and I headed to my car to drive to the Americinn Hotel, and Geoff told me that I had to ride with him. I immediately knew something was up. I insisted that I drive since "my mom was preparing me homemade macaroni and cheese," as I requested for my birthday dinner, and I would need to leave "his grandparent's hotel room" early. We then walked up the stairs to room 201. Geoff, earlier, told me that he had a key to the room. When we got to the room, he knocked on the door, and said, "We're here!" When the door was opened, I was surprised to see my family sitting in the room on the couches, and yelling, "Surprise!"

I then began giving them hugs and all, and the double doors in the hotel opened up and my friends from the summer show cast and some of my best friends yelled, "Surprise!," as well. I was shocked to see them all there. I was very delighted too. There was tons of food, and many presents for me! I just want to say to Craig: Thank you for convincing my mom to unground me that night, and for helping her with the party. Geoff: Thanks for inviting friend to the party! Chase: Thanks for acting dumb, and not telling me anything. Everyone else: Thanks for being there! I truly felt loved, and almost wanted to cry. Thanks for making me feel special on my 18th birthday party. To those who didn't attend: Sorry for not hearing about it. If you want, you are still invited to my party at Cool Beans on Saturday, July 24th, at noon. I will be there.

Well, that sums up the day of the party. Now, onto Thursday. Thursday was opening night of "Get Smart." The show went well, and after the show, we went to Perkins. It felt odd not having to rush home before curfew. Ahhhh, the joys of being 18. It still feels weird though. After leaving Perkins, Chase, Amy Jorgensen, and I planned on watching The Company. We originally planned on watching it out at Amy's house, but Weeza called and said we could have it at her house. Since we loved her so much, we decided to go to her house instead. The movie had no plotline, but the ballet dancing was so cool. It was a wonderful night. I enjoyed the movie, and the company very much. We shall have to do it again. You guys are so fun to hang out with. I love you.
Tonight was the night of the play, and we performed very well. We had one tech mixup, however. A certain person decided that she would slam the door, and make it fold the wrong way on the hinges. The door decided that it wouldn't open, and chase had to improv a reason why it wouldn't. He did very well. After the performance, we went to Cracker Barrell. The service was so much friendlier than it was at Perkins, and we got out before they closed at 11. We then went to HyVee so Geoff could check his schedule and pick up his pay stub. Chase and I just walked around the store randomly. Weeza called, and asked us if we could pick her up before we went to Craig's house. I said that it wouldn't be a problem, and we picked her up, and proceeded to Craig's house.

At Craig's house, we watched Geoff and Craig play Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Weeza seemed bored, and to tell you the truth, I was a little bored. Geoff livened up the night by sexually assaulting Weeza. You know, the usual Geoff activites.

Now, I am at home, typing this extremely long post. I think I shall go upstairs and write in my journal. *is reminded of Weeza and smiles* Thanks Weeza!

Come and see "Get Smart" tomorrow night! I love you, and hope your days are filled with wonderful people like mine.
