Okay. You may or may not have heard about hurricaine Charley, but that doesn't matter, really. All you need to know is that:
1. It's headed for the west coast of Florida
2. I live on the west coast of Florida and 3. By the time it hits where I live, it'll be a category 3 hurricaine.
So today was pretty...erm...interesting, lol. Not a bad day, actually!
Here's a scan of the letter we got sent home with us:
And, obviously, there is something written on the back. I'll tell you the story ^^
It's actually a good thing that happened today!!! VERY good, indeed!
Okay, this is probably the first and last time that I will tell any of you the name of the guy I like (for privacy reasons, I haven't said it yet...I'm only saying it now because it goes with the next picture). His name is Manny (as in the nickname for Emmanuel). He knows that I like him, and my best friend Beverley rides the bus with me (in the back), and today he was sitting in the front of his bus, which was right behind ours, so we could see him and he could see us. Beverley takes my no school paper and does this on the back:
(and for those of you who don't know, my name is Renae, lol) Which I completely was not expecting!!! Then she writes another one on notebook paper that says "you should kiss her", and he writes back (in response to both notes)
"It's Manny, not Many
Sounds like a good idea"
So I don't know what's with that!!!
They wrote about 20 more notes before his bus turned and we couldn't see him anymore....So now it kind of sucks that I don't have school tomorrow-I won't see him until Monday!!
Oh, and by the way, right after Beverley wrote that on the back of my paper and showed it to Manny, she crumpled it up, and I was like "BEV!!! I need that! My mom won't believe that we don't have shool!!" and she just said "OH!!! Sorry!!!!" and tried to straighten it out on the window, lol.
So when I got home, my mom was going insane....she's taking this hurricaine thing WAY too seriously. We live in Land O Lakes, which is just north of Tampa, so the hurricaine has to hit a stretch of land before it hits us, so it's bound to die down at least a little bit (plus, the most violent part of the storm isn't even going to touch us). My mom is acting like our house is going to be blown flat. She's made all these plans ("if our house is blown down, we'll go live in Connecticut with grandma", lmao) and she even made my brother and stepdad turn the trampoline in our backyard upside-down so that it doesn't fly through our back porch and break through our sliding glass door (I got pictures of them in the process of doing it ^^). I'm the one who is always paranoid about every little storm....I've been that way ever since I was little (when hurricaine Georges was supposed to hit near my old house, I was huddled on the couch, surrounded by all of my favorite belongings because I didn't want them to be destroyed), and this is the first time that I'm not scared at all. I don't know why; I'm just not! So hopefully my feelings are right...
Tomorrow at 10am, our power is going to be shut off purposely...doesn't bother me a bit. And still I have no clue why!!! lol
So this weekend should be different!
OOH! one more thing before I end this. If you read my last blog, you would know that in my drafting class, I'm the only girl, and the only person I know in there is my ex (I'm trying to be friends with him, really I am, but he's got this whole dumb "you want to be friends with me? really? but....since you broke up with me, doesn't that mean you're supposed to hate me?" kind of attitude...plus we got assigned seats Tuesday and he's on the entire other side of the room). WELL, last year in drafting (it was drafting I, and now I'm in drafting II), I had 3 best friends-Eddie (who, being a senior, graduated), Rebecca (who didn't like drafting so she didn't take it this year), and Billy (who had been trying to get into drafting all this week-his schedule got screwed up-but our class is completely full, so if he got into drafting, he was gonna be in 2nd period instead of 4th period with me). Today, Billy came up to me, and he's gonna be be in my class!!! YAY!! Lol, I haven't said more than two words to anyone in that class so far....I'm still gonna be the only girl (technically...lol, j/k), but I'll finally have someone to talk to!!!!!! lol
Okie dokeesh. Have a great weekend everyone!

"I'm gonna open up my own place. Open my own restaurant and get away from you people. I'm gonna open up a restaurant with two smoking sections; Ultra and Regular, ok? And we're not gonna have any tables or any chairs or any napkins. None of that pussy shit. Just a big wide open black space. And all we're gonna serve is raw meat, right on the bone! And only men are going to eat there, naked men, sitting around a big giant camp fire, and no men's room either. You have to piss, you mark your territory like a wolf! And if some guy has a heart attack from eating too much meat, fuck him, we throw him in the fire! More meat for the other meat-eaters! Yeah!"
