Day 95

This morning's communication class had some thrill. We had to do skits. Needless to say I made sure mine was par with SNL material.... but it generated laughs.... Lorne Michaels would be proud.

Class came and went, and I was almost free for the break.... (Holland class to follow at night). I drove straight home, skipping out on my usual doughnut and juice stop. Upon arriving home, I browsed the web, rotted my life away with Batman again, and then went with my mom to Costco. Spent a solid hour in the store, all while looking at phones, movies, sampling sushi and tea, and having a short lunch there. We also ran into some old friends, so that was nice to see their faces, or at the very least, know that they aren't dead.

Went home and further invested time with the dark knight. Time flew so fast, I realized dinner time had approached, and my mother made a most delicious dish or orange chicken and rise. I devoured that meal, and then drove out to Holland for my 2nd to last creativity class. I do enjoy the class; others hate it, but I find the work load appropriate and engaging. The entire ride there and back, I was fearing a deer would leap out in front of me. I'm still slightly traumatized, and the sound does it. Hitting an animal doesn't scare me, but the sound it makes, and then the image of the animal coming through my glass, cutting me, and then still being alive, thus kicking and trashing all over my injured body really scares me to my core.

Ended the night at Mulligan's Pub with a friend I haven't seen since high school. Garret is his name, and I've known him since my senior year of high school. We had one class together, and didn't really talk. Up till now, Garret has been singing and strumming for his own band, and is gaining popularity in doing so. He also started a film production company, and, yes, you see where this is going. Chatted with him over some PBR about the film, production, and possibilities. I don't know what will happen, but I do know they'll be more beers to follow. He's a cool guy.
