I remember.&nbsp; I got to sleep in.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Then I woke up around 10 and waited for my dad to get home from work, then we ate, and left to go to my parents eye appointement they made last Saturday.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>We arrived at the place.. on time for the appointment and ended up staying at the place (because they were testing eyes and whatnot) for&nbsp;a few&nbsp;hours.&nbsp; Then it was like 4:10, so we went home, and I went to church and 2|4|2 (parents didn&#8217;t want to be late to church, and I don&#8217;t mind going twice)<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>I went to church, it was a good message.&nbsp; Its good stuff&#8230; anyway.. after that I went to 2|4|2 by myself.. Emily ended showing up afterwards, she had a family dinner and stuff to attend to so she wasn&#8217;t able to go to church and missed parts of 2|4|2.&nbsp; It was good fun.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Instead of sitting by myself and watch other people sit by themselves.. I decided to go and talk to someone.&nbsp; I met Tara,&nbsp;she is&nbsp;a pretty cool person.&nbsp; So I was in a good mood that night because I &#8230; made a friend! hah.. anyway.. I usually don&#8217;t do the stuff afterwards, (neither did&nbsp;Tara because she hadn&#8217;t really attended&nbsp;the group&nbsp;regularly)&nbsp;but I kinda made a deal with Tara that I&#8217;d go this time, and she would too.&nbsp; So then after 2|4|2 I went with my parents and we ate.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Then I called Emily and told her to come pick me up and we could go where-ever the group went afterwards (that way I could save my gas in my car).&nbsp; It was about 10:00, and so.. by the time we got to Baha Fresh they were closing.&nbsp; By pure luck I saw her walking to her car and so she was going to go do stuff with other people.&nbsp; The remaining people were going to go to the coffee house.. (xtreme bean) and so I somehow got her to go to the xtreme bean.&nbsp; Emily came along too.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>On the way to the coffee house Emily tried to cut Becky off from cutting infront of her, but her car was too weak.&nbsp; Tara, who was following us.. must have been suprised when she saw Emily shoot from 65 to like 80 in what&#8230; 20 seconds?&nbsp; (com&#8217;on folks its a stripped down focus)<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>So then we hung out there until 1am-ish.. until Emily had to go.. Then because she was my ride.. I went also (I didn&#8217;t take that into account with the whole saving gas mentality).<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Then I came online.. deleted my prev. email address.. (<a href=\"mailto:dcshox@hotmail.com\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">dcshox@hotmail.com<\/a>) and switched all the account stuff over to my current.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\"><strong>Sunday, July 11th, 2004<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Today was much less interesting.. by far.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Woke up.. didn&#8217;t feel like eating.. so had 1\/2 of a typical breakfast.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Went to church with Emily and my family, then&#8230; came home. (1pm)&nbsp; Then my parents wanted to grab something to eat, so we went to BJs.&nbsp; Oh what a great idea that was.&nbsp; Emily decided to pay and my parents would pay for bowling.&nbsp; It was more expensive than my tastes would allow me to have&#8230; so I didn&#8217;t get anything but a Pepsi.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Irrevelant information&nbsp;but.. at the time I didn&#8217;t know Emily was paying for All of it.. but I Knew she would be paying at least part.. because of how expensive things were.&nbsp; So they all ate, and&nbsp;afterwards we decided to go return Emily&#8217;s phone (because she cracked it).&nbsp; Came&nbsp;home..&nbsp;Emily&nbsp;shot to her house to get the stuff that came with the phone..&nbsp;and&nbsp;then we all went&nbsp;to Price Costco.&nbsp; (whole afternoon becoming a very annoying experience for me.. lol&#8230;&#8230; *shakes head*)<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>While we were there, we noticed that they no longer had the phone that I bought for Emily.. so she got a 200 dollar phone&#8230; she ended up paying like 30 bucks (the diff from what I paid to that phone), so shes happy with that phone.&nbsp; While there.. I got a hotdog &amp; drink for 1.50 (now thats a good deal)&nbsp; Afterwards, came home.. parents watched a movie they checked out at the church library, and I watched the Matrix in my room on this computer.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>After that was done.. it was like 8-ish, time to leave to go bowling.&nbsp; Went bowling.. I won the first 3 games for our team.. and Emily won the last one after the series was decided (5 games a night).. then we came home.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Then I got online.. and here I am.&nbsp; I&#8217;m done!<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Good songs have been stuck in my head all day today.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Take Care, God Bless<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Pray Hard.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Ciao!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey So whatsup?
