Today's been pretty good. I ate a big breakfast-- two yogurts and some ice cream. That's big for me. I don't eat much at all, especially for someone my age. You know, growing and all... you'd think I'd eat more. But I really don't. Anyway, it was good, and I was hungry. Got on AIM and chatted a bit... then I took a bath. Mom called in the middle of it. I had to call her back after I got out. As soon as I hung up, I was about go make a big lunch. I was balked by another phone call... Ol' Zack was on the phone. I could talk to him in 30 years and recognize that voice. Sounds kind of snobby, but in a wanna-be-snobby way. Not really a bad thing, but very recognizable. We started talking, and found out that Josh was on the phone too. I hate three way conversations. I hate phones. I can scream that at Josh and he'll just go on with some corny jokes. The only way you could get him to hang up is if you tell him that you're gay. You see, Josh is homophobic. Well, I think it's wrong, but Josh thinks that all gay people should die. He's not the worst... he's never called anyone a fag or anything, its just, he really hates gays. Anyway, I didn't feel like coming out of the closet today. It's too hot outside. You've got to be in the mood to play around with Josh like that, and I wasn't. So I told him my "new" AIM SN and told him to IM me there later. That moron can't take a hint. Or a flat out sentence. There was nothing subliminal about it. I hate phones and I didn't want to talk. In real life, I'm a very quiet person. No particular reason, I'm just weird that way. Eventually, I pulled my clicking bit on him. He hates that. I'll say "Hold on a second!" and then hang up. Or "Yeah yeah whatever." and hang up. He'll be laughing his ass off the next day at school about it though. But you know he hates it. After ditching him once, he won't call again. He did that once, when he didn't know me too well. "Hey!" "Hi Josh..." "So, whatcha doin?" "Josh, I don't like phones." "Oh, okay. I'm watching the Simpsons. You watching it? Its that episode where--" "Josh, I HATE phones." "... Maggie shoots Mr. Burns, and then..." "Okaybyebye." *Click* He called back several times. I came close to cussing him out, but Josh thinks everythings controversial, just like my whole school. He does it in a friendly way though. Otherwise I wouldn't talk to him. Well, for lunch, I made some cereal. And toast. Yum. Then I cleaned my room. Lots of fun. Just when I started to get on the computer again, the phone rings. Damn, our phones were ringing off the hook today. Styuupid phones. It was some telemarketer. I love hanging up on them... Anyway, I got on AIM and talked to Val for a little bit. Then she said something, I don't know what, and I just suddenly got depressed as hell. Whatever she said didn't merit me getting depressed, and it isn't the kind of depression I get stuck in for weeks at a time, but it wasn't a nice feeling. I acted like I had to go and signed off. Thats something you have to love about the internet. If you don't feel like talking to someone, you can lie much easier than you can in real life. Either that, or I'm not a good liar. Whatever. Then Dad got home... he was whistling. "Hey Dad, some guy called about our furniture. Said he'd take care of it at 4:00" He did his "mm" thing on me, and I started to walk off. "Hey boy. What did your mom make you do?" "Nothing..." I usually have to vacuum or something." "Really? Okay then. Go mop the kitchen." "But it's clean." Then he gave me this "I'm-your-father-so-I-can-boss-you-around" glare. I backed off. I guess I'm gonna go mop now.
