From The Frying Pan, Into The Fire

Last night was great. Went to celebrate Mathew's birthday at Jeremy's house with America and Genesis. The entire family was there and I got to introduce America as my girlfriend to everyone :) We ate posole and pizza, and then watched Once Upon A Time with hilarious commentary, throwing in jokes from all over the place. After, America and I met up with John, Carlos, Lindsey, Clara, Kim and Gaby to go see The Hobbit. That movie is just spectacular. The way Peter Jackson sets up the story is great and the action scenes are above par. There is a scene that finds the dwarves and Gandolf running through Orc mines and there is a specific shot where the group is split into two parts and simultaneously battling orcs one level above the other. Then to top it off, when we got out of the movie, at 2:30 am, we all went for breakfast at IHOP for some pancakes and good laughs. I got this Iced Coffee Mocha thing that was LOADED with sugar. The waiter could have at least given me a spoon to stir it. I ended up drinking three of those bad boys and while I didn't get a sugar rush or anything, the after effect was still brutal haha. Clara tried to emulate my "That's not the point" phrase and failed miserably. After a good 5 pancakes, we finished at 4 am and decided to call it a night/morning. I hope in the future we can do it again.

Today looks like it's going to be horrible. My mom woke up in a horrible mood and apparently is having a bunch of people over to eat. Then it turned out, one of the people she invited decided they were going to invite a bunch of other people, which just made my mom go that much more ballistic. Everything points to me just staying in my room all day. Hopefully America can join us, but if she can't well that's okay too. I'm setting my day's expectations pretty low, so there is only one way to find out whether it turns out well or not.
