• I’ve been a bit lax on my entrees . . .
  
  Monday:
  I had been invited to go to Six Flags Great America a while back, and really wanted to go. After much unnecessary stress, my dad found a great deal to get a season pass. He called Dominicks and told me that I could a season pass there for $68 or something like that.
  
  Well, I had to work first, 9 to 3. Patrons were obnoxious, let me tell you. Anyway– the life guard who was supposed to replace me was really really late. I was pretty annoyed at that- my boss and I had been talking about him earlier though, and so his tardiness confirmed the promise that I would get some of his hours since he was slacking and I wanted 40 a week. I digress.
  
  So after work I went to Dominicks. They tell me that they haven’t sold Six Flags tickets in over a year and that I should go to Jewel. GRRRRRR. I wasn’t in a good mood. I go to Jewel. They ring up the pass, and then ask me for $87. I was steaming at this point, but rather than endure the stress of not going to Great America and having to go home instead, I coughed up the money. Wincing. By the time I got my Wendy’s and paid the $10 parking at Six Flags, I had pulled way to much money out of my account for one afternoon.
  
  Great America was so much fun though- with the Prow’s, the Cook’s, and half of the Penrose’s- oh, and Colin. Good times. Superman the ride is awesome- I went on it twice. By the time we had left the park and gone to two Wendy’s it was pretty late; I got home around 11:30. It was a much needed escape, let me tell you- while the money was painful to give up, I would have paid twice that to get my load of stress lifted.
  
  Tuesday:
  Just got back from Great America! Two days in a row! yAy! I went with Heather this time- from 8 to 9ish. Good times. We also had dinner at Chili’s. I was grateful for the chance to spend some time with Heather because I don’t think I’ll be able to see her for two and a half weeks. That is not good- I’m upset that I haven’t been able to see her more this summer as it is. *sigh*
  
  All in all, though, I’m in a pretty good mood– although the little people in my head* have been driving me nuts lately! I’ve been so spacey tonight- And everybody’s been laughing at me because of the little people. I’d like to see you try to deal with conflicting voices in your head! They’re annoying.
  
  Luce won’t stop mocking me- he stop’s laughing only to quote songs** obnoxiously, “I am a seed that you planted in stone. Left for dead, now heaven’s calling me home . . .”
  
  Mervin is probably the most annoying of all– he won’t stop moaning. I rarely can get him to stop complaining. I hear him singing, “watch the clock, but it’s not moving, ’cause everyday is never endng . . .” all while Luce laughs cruely and Haley scratches that darn itch. Gall it’s so annoying, all the scratching, and then it’s, “I’m so hungry I could die; I need the power you supply– my obsession is complete . . . ” Yeah, definately shivers up the spine.
  
  Thomas is the most bearable, although sometimes his good spirits get annoying. There was comfort in his, “If you miss me, have no fear. I’ll be here; I’ll be waiting. . . ” I wanted to slap him, though, when he said, “I wanted to thank you for a vision that was lost, that you returned, but you’re past where you understand.”
  
  Henry’s not much better than Mervin, he’s always so darn paranoid. Anything and everything is such a big deal to him, and he’s always jumping. It’s Luce’s fault- he’s always trying to scare Henry, as he whispers, “So you think I’ve lost control, have I hit the wall?” ” . . . Now your secret is out . . .” Grrr.
  
  For the most part, though, I was able to manage them all, until one of them went too far with, “How long will I be waiting, until the end of time? I don’t know . . .” ::snarl:: I shut them up then midsentence.
