I'm awesome at keeping promises, aren't I? "No more late-night posting!" Yeah, it's kinda 12:29 AM.
Whatever.
Today consisted mostly of a golf tournament (I had to be at my school at six-freaking-fifteen this morning) and then the rest is a blur of procrastination and frantic studying for chem. Yet in between the blurs, I've heard some really, REALLY weird stuff today (and for the past few days). Just thought you might find this entertaining (although it's no double rainbow).

ELIZABETH: "You should invite him to come to Disneyland with us!"
ME: "Okay. Why?"
ELIZABETH: "Because he knows things."
ME: "Oh, and she said she met 'The Situation.'" [MAKES AIR QUOTES]
DAD: "The Situation? You mean the-" [SWITCHES TO STRANGELY HIGH-PITCHED VOICE] "guy who talks like this?"
MOM: "You sound like a gay gangster. Don't do that."
SISTER: "And Kermit the Frog. Kermit the Gay Gangster."
SISTER: "But it says eta is E."
ME: "No, no, eta is H. You know, like in The Lightning Thief? Remember the part where they're at that water park? Annabeth sees the Cupid statues and she's like 'Oh, look, there's an eta on the base, and it's H in Greek and I don't know why it's here!' and Percy's just going 'Huhh, I dunno,' and then later on Annabeth goes 'Oh, H for Hephaestus! How did I not remember that?!' and Percy's just like 'DERP!'"
[NOTE: Meaning, Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book 1: The Lightning Thief.]
MEGAN: "Yeah, I threw up earlier, but it wasn't because of this Mexican marshmallow - it was from something else. So do you want some? It's really good!"

Also, I won't be posting much (if at all) during November due to the epic stress of NaNo. See you all in December :)

Short stories!
"No, I swear this is my blog! I didn't steal the story! I put up an excerpt because I'm desperate and need to promote myself! Really, I'm that pathetic!"
Not going to work so great.
Moving on...

Today my friend asked someone to homecoming. He remembered the note and which locker was hers... yet neglected to bring a flower.
"I'll just bring it on Monday," he said.
"Then hurry up and take the note out before she comes," I said. "Just give her the note and the flower together on Monday when you bring it."
"No!"
"Why not?"
"Because I want to give her the note now," he said, like it was the most obvious thing in the world. I rolled my eyes.
"But it would make much more sense to take it out now," I reasoned, "because then you can give it to her all together and it'll be all nice and pretty."
"Nah, I'll just give it to her on Monday."
"But-"
Too late to back out now; she just walked up.
At least she said yes. :D

In the girls' bathroom on the second floor, there's been an Out of Order sign on one of the stalls for a little over a week. I don't know why they haven't fixed it yet, but today I walked in and saw that someone had penciled in:
The Chamber of Secrets has been opened
Enemy of the heir, BEWARE
I changed "enemy" to "enemies" and ran away giggling.
My school is so awesome.
Not going to work so great.

Late-night posting once more
Yeah, so, the last two posts I've written (this one and the stream of consciousness one) have definitely been written between the hours of 11 PM and 1 AM. I hope this isn't a trend. My writing tends to become slightly incoherent after 11:30. But anyway...
IT'S NANOWRIMO TIME!!!!!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
In case you've been living under a rock, moved to the plains of Siberia, or are just plain stupid (sorry, dude) and don't know what NaNoWriMo is...
NaNoWriMo is short for National Novel Writing Month (also known as "November," strangely). It's when a bunch of really insane writers get together and commit to writing a 50,000-word novel in one month (from November 1 to November 30).
Are we crazy? Yes.
Committed? You bet.
Suicidal? Not quite.
I'm participating for the FIRST TIME EVAR this year (not a typo). OMG YOU GUYS I AM SO PUMPED THIS IS GOING TO BE SO COOL OMG WRITING YAAAAY *majestic arm-flailing*
Brigid, my writing hero/fellow Goodreadser/Wrimo is participating, too, except this isn't her first year. She's also about eight thousand times better at writing than I am, so go check out her stuff, because she's amazing.
If you're as completely insane as I and the thousands of other Wrimos are, go check out the super duper official NaNo website and SIGN UP NOW, because it's going to be really fun. Like, really really fun. Like, more fun than taking a garden hose and helium balloons to a bouncehouse.*
And on that note, I'm going to bed. Next time I'll try to post while it's still light outside (which actually might be impossible, because it was dark ALL DAY today on account of the freaky rain weather).
See? Making no sense at all.
FARETHEEWELL, BLOGGERS.
*Not that you would suck the helium or anything, you little chipmunk, you.
