The week's Happenings

Well, this has been an interesting week. I've been workin like crazy for days and I'm finnaly gettin my first pay check tomorrow *is excited*. We've decided to teach the parrot at PetSmart to say meow. I shaved off the beard I was growing figuring that now that I've seen myself with it I should compare it to what I look like without it. Im almost done reading Interview with the vampire again. Its such a dark, facinating and often times creepy story. I love the characters. Louis who mourns his lost humanity, Lestat who (in this book anyway) is foolish and cruel. Armand the ancient has been a vampire for so long that he no longer behaves like a human or even uses human gestures. And Claudia, easily the most interesting and creepy of them all. A vampire child with the mind of an adult trapped in a little girl' body forever. She is quite easily the least human of them all since she lacked a long human life and is quite eerie at some points in the book. Cant wait to read Vampire Lestat again though, its even better. And then theres the talk with Kathleen. I called her to tell her how I feel the other day. I dont know if it was a good idea or not but I felt i had too. It turns out she never felt anything for me while we were goin out. She doesnt even miss going out. I was actually shocked. I had always felt like we connected on Kairos and that there had been something there that had faded over time. Now I feel kind of foolish. I was looking for a mature meaningful relationship but I got wrapped up in a spring/summer fling. Now I dont know if anyone in high school is capable of having a real relationship. Its odd though, I finnaly know that I have lost her forever and yet, I really dont feel anything about it. Foolish perhaps, but no deep crushing loss or dark depression.
