Today I have taken absolutely no medicine. Stomach pains woke me in the early morning hours. It was the same convulsing pain that I've had before when I took too much aspirin and it lasted for an entire week and I couldn't eat and it was unbearable. It didn't last that long this time. I just lay in bed and waited for it to pass. But I don't want to risk it. But, hell, I may give in and take some medicine (that doesn't even work on me, mind you) before the night is over.
So, today I went to Nashville. I went with my mom, Ron, and Ron's daughter Casey. It was tolerable. Actually, it was quite fun. We walked around downtown first and looked like a bunch of tourists even though we've been there plenty of times. We ate at Jay Alexanders, which is always absolutely delicious.
There was an old black man on the street corner playing the saxophone, and, damn!, he was good! He played I Wanna Hold Your Hand and The Pink Panther theme (while we were in the vicinity anyway). I would have died if he played Never Gonna Dance Again by George Michael. Omg, I seriously would have laughed so hard.
We went into the Charlie Daniels souvenir store whatever it's called. I was going to get a shirt that said "Chick Magnet" on it with a picture of a really skinny cartoon guy trying to flex. But then I forgot about it and got a Nashville shirt instead. I really question my life choices.
We went to BB King's, which is the original reason we were in Nashville. We saw Larry's grandaughter's band play. They were so good! So much better than I expected. I can't get over how good that girl can sing. The drummer is in 6th grade, Cassie and lead guitarist are in 7th, and the singer and the other guitarist are in 8th.
I was texting my cousin while I was there because I wanted him to go, and he kinda wanted to go too but he went to a party instead, so I told him to "drink responsibly!"
"Haha im not like pamp"
"Don't smoke too much weed lol. I swear this guy playing drums is my elementary school principal. It's blowing my mind."
"Im gonna smoke it all and do meth cause thats the main drug. Haha and maybe he is."
"Lol if you do meth, I dont feel sorry for you. (I know you dont do it haha)."
"Haha theres not gonna be any drinkin or drugs its more of a bunch of us hanging out"
"Oh okay. I'm so proud of you, Nick. :P"
"I know. Im cool like that"
"I think you're cool. B) And my opinion matters the most."
"Haha yeah it does."
Oh, yeah, the band that was playing when we got there, the drummer/singer looked EXACTLY like Mr.Tidwell. I mean, Mr.Tidwell was my bus driver for like 9 years, I know what the guy looks like. The drummer was even wearing the same kind of hat that Mr.Tidwell wears sometimes! The only difference in this guy and Mr.Tidwell is that htis guy had an earring in one ear, he was a bit shorter, and slightly pudgy. But his face was an exact replica. Haha. I swear they're twins.
So, at one point, my grandma started dancing in her seat and Larry (her boyfriend) yelled out, "Stand back! Give her room! Give her room!" It was funny...
After we left Nashville, we went to Michaels in Bellevue because I need glass and glue for my mosaic that I'm going to do in art. Casey and I wasted a lot of time playing with silly hats. When I have money, I'm going back up there and buying up all their silly hats. They didn't have a good selection of glass, but I got something that will at least get me started.
On the way home I had splendid text conversations with Fonz and Pamp. And when I got home, I had splendid Facebook message conversations with Jeremy and Matthew. And splendid Tumblr conversations with all my wonderful friends on Tumblr.
Fonz is coming over tomorrow, and we're going to watch Drop Dead Fred! I'm excited that he's finally gonna see it! I think he's excited too lol.
But, man, tomorrow I also have to write a paper that's due on Monday. I don't know where I'm going to find the time...
Now I'm going to finish watching Gladiator (for the first time!) and go to bed. Maybe take something to help me sleep and regret it in the morning.
