I Was In For A Treat.

I have had an interesting day, but I think I say that about everyday. At least I can say it was an “interesting day” instead of a “bad day.”  Today definitely wasn’t a bad day though. I had a good morning, considering I thought I would get a rude awakening by my mother at the butt crack of dawn. I also thought it was going storm last night and it didn’t. Somebody was watching over me. I had been looking forward to watching the Golden Gods Awards for almost two months. A storm wasn’t going to ruin my excitement, because I knew YouTube wouldn’t fail me. That’s kind of sad to say out loud, but when your satellite and power has gone out without any really bad weather is around, you’re preparing yourself for everything that could go wrong in advance. That’s what I did too. For two days straight, I drove myself insane because I thought I was going to miss Five Finger Death Punch’s performance. The funny thing was, when the red, well “black carpet” pre show was on, there was no sound whatsoever when it first started. My heart sank, but then I started to laugh at myself, because I didn’t exactly prepare myself for that to happen. It’s a music awards show, it doesn’t do any good without sound. You may get an awesome picture, but it isn’t awesome without the sound of everything. Since I couldn’t watch it last year (and I tried) I was in for a treat. I’m surprised I lasted for as long as I did.

I got off track again. My bad! My mother told me when it first came on, that she wanted to get up early and I thought that was stupid to tell me because I kind of figured I was going to dead to the world. I went to bed right after FFDP’s performance was over and that was at 12:48am, so it wasn’t so bad. When I got up this morning, I just thought my mom went without me. Left me in bed, but then when I rolled over and looked at the clock and it said 8am, I was shocked. I did not expect to wake up so damn early. I tried to push myself to sleep, but it didn’t work. I got up, like physically up at 9am, and got online because I kind of figured I would stay up after reading my stuff. My mom was still sleeping while I was doing all of this, she didn’t get up until 10:30am. It was so weird to spend the first few minutes after she got up not listening to my headphones. Since my headphones were broken, I couldn’t listen to them in between performances I didn’t want to watch and when my mom got up the next morning. It sucked so bad, considering I live to listen to music before I go to bed and after I get up. So to now have that, really crushed me.

When we went to my nana’s, I was kind of tired, but then again I felt good too. That still doesn’t seem normal, but I’ll go with it. My mom left to get food and went to one of the small stores first, and she texted my nana while she was gone. She said that she had a huge ass surprise for me. That instantly freaked me out, but my nana and I first thought of well maybe she saw somebody and they were going to come over to the house. I really got into that thought and took it a step further and thought my cousin Kristi was done and she met up with my mom first and was going to surprise us when she got back. When my mom got back to the house, there wasn’t a car behind her and nobody came out the backseat or passenger side. So both of those went flying out of my head. My nana and I were still confused. My mom couldn’t control herself, so much excitement going on inside her. She knew that nana uses me money and that she found it at the store on sale, and guess what it was? A new pair of headphones! I was so happy! These suckers are huge too! They look like studio headphones. When my mom went to take them out of the box, plugged them into my iPod, it was just long enough from my head to my toes. You wouldn’t think it would be a big issue, but with me. It is.

When we got home, I listened to my iPod and new headphones. I’m still getting adjusted to them. I’m not used to everything sounding the way it does, but I remember feeling that way when I got my purple headphones. After that, I started watching Dr. Phil and I was sitting up on both Facebook and Twitter. My mom came in with our only little calico kitten, Stef. My mom had given me a warning that she was in the mood to run around. I swear once she left the room, the kitten turned into the sweetest thing ever. Even sweeter than little Ivan. Stef wanted to follow every move I made. I was sitting on the bed, so I wasn’t moving much but when I was, she was right there by me. She was very clingly. I think she wanted me to hold her, but she kept climbing up my shirt and hands. I found that cute, because she kept meowing at me and we were having our own little conversation. I would be meowing back at her and she’d keep climbing up. I was afraid she was going to come up to my face if I wasn’t careful. She walked around my bed a bit, and once I saw a oppurity, I scoot back towards the wall and the little turd followed me and just laid in between my legs. Since I was basically trapped, I had my mom grab my remote and Kindle and I started reading one of the books I had brought prior to getting the one I just finished. I am not reading Battlescars: A Rock & Roll Romance by Sophie Monroe. It is pretty good so far!
