“Eric Keith’s Day Off”

Though mine hasn't been as fun as Ferris Bueller's, it's not too shabby. Despite the fact I'm missing my Sheena and that my throat is killing me, I'm ok. I woke up around 6 am and realized that I do not need to go to school today. Then I called Sheena to wake her up and tell her. I went back to sleep and slept until 11:15. I woke up to an empty house. Mom and Dad are at work. Whoooo. I walked around my room for a little bit, then I headed downstairs. I went into the bathroom to ummm you know. Anyways, I sat on the couch for a minute. I then decided to go waste time on my computer. I played this little game where you can drive around and destroy things. Pretty fun. My throat was still bothering me, so I decided to make some nice, hot Ovaltine. Yummy. It hit the spot. I sat down and turned the TV on. Not much was on. I had a choice between MTV’s Hot Zone, VH1 Behind the Music on Brian Setzer, Quantum Leap on Sci-fi, or The Waltons. So I decided to go upstairs and finish watching Angel that I taped on Tuesday. It was pretty cool. It was a Buffy/Angel crossover where we learn more about Angel, Darla, Drusilla, and Spike. It shows when Spike was turned into a vampire and how he killed two slayers. Interesting. Anyways, I finished that and went back downstairs and played on the computer some more. Sheena gave me a call from lunch which was nice. It was very nice to hear her voice. After I got off the phone with her, I called work and asked if I was needed later today. Barry said no. If he had said yes, I still probably wouldn’t work. Oh well. I decided to cook me some French toast sticks. My parents went to Sam’s Warehouse and bought this big box that has about 80 little French toast sticks in it. They’re pretty good. When I took them out, I burnt the top of my middle finger. I have no idea where the oven mitts are, so I had to use a dish rag. It hurts like a mug, coffee mug at that. They’re still cooking because I had to take them out and turn them over. See, not too much excitement. It sure does beat a day where I would be at school and sick. I do miss Sheena though.

Well, on to other things. I went to Robin’s surprise party Tuesday night. I think that might be part of the reason I have a cold. Jon and I were running around outside being chased by Amanda with cake. Not cool. I was also wearing shorts so........oh well. Yippee, my French toast sticks are done!!!!! There’s nothing like some French toast sticks with a big glass of Ovaltine. Anyways, the party was pretty fun. Except getting the cake stuffed in my face. I do believe there is still some in my nose. I think one of the big highlights of the night was Jon running around in his boxers with a CD taped to his chest. We got some pretty good pictures too. We got one of Jon blowing in my ear, Robin and Jon with cake all over their face, me sitting in Sheena’s lap, me and Sheena taped together. Wonderful night. I’m listening to some old school Deftones right now. The song playing right now is my them song for the day, “Bored”.

I have now run out of pretty words to say so I’m going to go be bored. I hope you all have a wonderful day. If you noticed, I have re-vamped the Rant section. I added a section for Jon’s rants and decided to title all of mine. Well, I’m gone because I haven’t made those changes yet but by the time you read this, they will have been made. Did you get all of that? I’m a little confused too but that’s alright. I’m gone.
