Once upon a time, a few mistakes ago...So, I've been hanging out with my bffl a bit more. Were funny, we go like 5 days without talking, though probably leaving random messages on Facebook( that's mostly me when I need to rage) and then we hang out heaps all in a row.
I was in your sights, you got me alone.
You found me- you found me- you found me....
Like, yesterday I was going to the beach and ended up at my cousins birthday party. Thankfully, though he's a year younger and went to a different school, I know a fair amount of his friends. Mostly girls who went to my school, plus one girl who was the older sister of a girl I coach, another from my netball team and her boyfriend. I don't strike up conversation easily, but this one girl Brittney, who I am the kind of friend who will stop and chat if I see her somewhere (mostly because she can talk my ear off, which makes me more comfortable), was there so I was fine. I got pretty burnt though. I reapplied a bunch of times but I'm really white so it doesn't matter. Any place I missed turned tomato red. it was like my decolletage mainly and the tops of my shoulders, so straps are painful today.
I texted my bffl to see if she was busy, but she was hanging out with family. Like, 5 hours later she called me and was like 'sorry, what you up to now?' so I went to hers, wrapped some presents for her little sister's teachers. She's autistic so she has lots of presents to be wrapped lol. Then we watched Bad Teacher, with Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake. I mean, I figured it would be bad but it wasn't really. Just unremarkable. Then I had dinner at hers, which I do quite a bit, her mum is a great cook, then we made brownie cupcakes and watched Mr And Mrs Smith. Which was very good, I do like Angelina Jolie, I think she is a talented actor, for sure. I love her in lots of movies. So I ended up going home about midnight.
Then today we went shopping in Shellharbour which was fun. There is an End of the World party at her boyfriends place on Friday. She and two other girls are going as the Powerpuff Girls, cos the theme is come dressed as your favourite apocalyptic scenario (for example, zombies or aliens) or as a hero able to help fight off the end of the world.
My favourite Apocalypse stoppers is obviously Team Free Will- Dean, Sam and Cas from Supernatural. So I got some cargo shorts, a black tank top, and a sleeveless long jacket/coat thing in army green. I'll borrow combat boots from my cousin and hopefully some edgy jewellery type things and go as a hunter. I also need a gun (FAKE). We had one, but I think it got chucked out when we moved so I'll need to track one down. This is basically what I'll look like though. I don't know about hair yet. I might have cut it all off by then. I need to look like a badass. Which is hard because I'm like a My Little Pony when it comes to being badass.
So tomorrow is a party for my friend Viv. It's going to be a poker night/ card games, so I'm looking forward to it heaps. It'll be alcohol-y but only drinks like beer and cider, things to enjoy rather than get dumb with. I'm sure people will get drunk but slower. I don't like those things so I'll just drive/drive home and if I feel like doing stupid things like strip poker, I will. I'd rather make dumb decisions sober really.
Oh! And tomorrow, I'm going with Mum to her school, and I'm going to see my dogs and then hang out in her classroom with the kids. I'm good at that so I'll have a good time. I also got her to bring me home sequins and pins and styroform balls so I can start making my Christmas presents for my friends. They take ages and I'm doubtful of how good I can make them look but I think it's an effort-that-counts thing. Saves me money which is useful. I'd rather just buy the presents that I think people would actually like/use. I do love presents though (giving them as well as recieving) so I had great fun today being excited when I found something good. I got Mum a watch. It's cheap, I don't know if that will effect it but she said she wanted one and I found a nice one so fingers crossed she likes it. She's really easy to buy for. I got a multi gift for Sarah. I don't usually buy for her but she's at a difficult point in life so I got her a big mug, with hot chocolate powder and marshmellows included. Hopefully she likes it :) I got my best friend a mug too (I'm really into mugs right now I guess- but mainly because even if they aren't that exciting a present, they are useful. My friend Neeby got me onea few years ago and I use it any time I ever need a mug. For tea, or cooking or anything. It says 'still looking for Mr. Tall Dark and Immortal' so I get a chuckle each time too.) My best friends mug is a High School Musical one. She's lame, but she likes Zac Efron and she is soon to be the owner of a mug with his face on it. My cousin gets Marilyn Monroe on hers.
I still need gifts for my Dad and brother. Hmm... I think I'll just stick to my old tried and true method of DVD's for Tom. Dad is still a bother.

I just scrolled up and remember I had those lyrics up the tops because I was planning to talk about you know who but I don't really feel like it now so I'll be quick.
Bffl asked if I was over him, I said, mostly kinda yes, she was like, finally. She asked if I'd get with him if he was available and asked, I said yes. Which is a no brainer.
Also he told me this story and so did Brittney (the girl at my cousins party). He was walking with his girlfriend when Brittney and her best friend were driving and at the lights which were red. They recognised him and yelled out 'Hey Austin and Lucy!'. Because his girlfriend and I are so similar looking and because Austin and I used to be seen together a lot, they thought it was me. I shouldn't find satisfaction from that but I do.
I don't know if it was a hassle for him, or if it'd actually be like a mood ruiner, but yeah... I found it satisfying in that deeply mean and selfish way. Awkward reminders for him ftw.
Okay I'm done.
