Punkd.

Wednesday I got up and worked on my painting for a while. I finished the third wall. Then I packed my stuff to go to Kalamazoo. Justin and I came up with this long lie about how I was going out with an ex and he was upset and i made Katie promise to keep him company and keep him happy Wednesday night so he wouldn't think about it. So I knew for a fact that at least Katie would be at the Bull. I was so excited to get to Kalamazoo.

On my way down I re-started my Dreamcatcher audio-book. I love Stephen King, but I think ya'll already knew that. Once I got down here Justin called and told me that Katie was the only one he could get to go with him and that was only because of my promise that I made her make. So I told him to go ahead and just go with Katie and the rest of them would just have to find out later. Well they weren't ready when I got there so I went ahead and went in. I got a seat at the bar by the bull to wait for them. I don't think I have ever felt so uncomfortable alone. It didn't help that there weren't many people there so sitting alone I stood out like a sore thumb.

When they got there I made sure to keep my head down so Katie wouldn't see me. She got like three feet away from me before she realized who I was. It was such a good surprise! She kept saying there should have been a bunch of cameras because she felt like she was on Punk'd (see the video for her description). She was happy but she said that Justin and I are evil liars. I was rather impressed that we pulled it off as successfully as we did. The look on her face was priceless and she gave me a genuine "I'm happy to see you" hug. If you know Katie, you know that she isn't a huge hug fan.

We rode the bull and sat and talked. By the way the one guy (I call him frat boy) that runs the bull hates me. HATES ME. Justin didn't believe me until I rode. It was rather crazy and I kneed myself in the head. Don't worry Mom, I'm ok.

After the Bull we got Mennas. I love Mennas and have missed it being at home. Late night painting makes me want to call and order it. But NOTHING is open that late in Northern Michigan AND they don't have a Mennas. Then we came back to the 409 and watched some TV before Katie went to bed for night.

When Katie went to bed Justin and I went to the park at South Street to star gaze. Have I mentioned before that I love star gazing? Well I do. After that we went to bed.
