The Long Walk Home

December 21, 2002 - 7:05 PM

    I'm going to write a quick entry even though my time would be better spent giving myself a quick manicure. I need to be at Steak N Shake at 7:30. Tess, Sonia, and I could not agree on a movie, so we're just going to eat. I still have Christmas shopping to do, which is depressing as hell. Why am I such a procrastinator?

    Thursday night ended up being dreadful. It was Tess' birthday, and I made a huge sacrifice by seeing The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers with her. She shrieked into the phone when I said I'd go. She called it "the best birthday present ever." Funny girl. Unfortunately, as I was making my way to the theater, my car died. It wouldn't move. And my cell phone was dead. I was in the middle of a bunch of neighborhoods with no car or phone. I decided that I had to walk back home. That was a lot of fun. Gah. It was dark and I was alone, but I wasn't scared because my town is practically Mayberry. Tess later asked, "Did you cry? I would've cried." I said I didn't. "I guess that's because you're in such control of your emotions," she said. I don't know what she's talking about.

    Even worse than the walk was the fact that I had to leave behind the birthday present I bought back in August. I wanted to give it to her so badly, but it was too heavy to carry back to my house. Oy. I guess I'll give it to her tonight.

    I have to get going. I'll write more later.
