In the dark I thought I heard somebody call

Okay. Awake now.

Okay, so yesterday at around 21.00 my dad called and was like "okay so want to come over?" and I was bored and whatever so I said "yes". So we talk about my sleeping schedule for a bit and he decides to come over and pick me up at 09.00 the following day. That's basically right when I go to sleep, but I figured whatever.

So I dork around for a while until nine rolls around. He arrives, we leave, etc. Now, at this point I've been up for around 14-16 hours. So I listen to music and read a book for an hour, getting rather queasy-feeling in the meantime from the heat and the movement and all that. About the heat: where I usally live, the inside temperature is... pretty cold. So I am used to wearing a sweatshirt-ish thing and having my hands be cold. In the car, the air temperature is several degrees warmer than my body temp, and that's rather icky feeling.

At any rate, we stop at a resurant halfway there, and I figure I might as well eat something even though I am emphatically not hungry (and also nausious). So I order a cheeseburger with fries and hope I don't, you know, vomit or anything.

So the food comes and I eat it (I was hungry even though I didn't have an appitite) and my dada starts talking about What I Should Do With My Life (this is a fairly common talk). He keeps going over "you know, going to college would be a good idea because you learn things and also etc, etc." So I say "You know, you seem to be harping on me going to college," and he kinda laughs and starts going on about how I have great potential and how I have all these skills and going to college would be a learning experience and whatnot. "Of course, lots of famous authors didn't go to college and etc etc" and I'm just kinda "..."

And then, what this whole entry has been building up towards: He says "You know, I read some of your writing on your website"
I make this half-choke half-cough sound that was probably pretty amusing to hear and start grinning like a loon.
"Even though the content was sexually explict, I wouldn't exactly call it /pornography/... it was too well written for that" and I am still just sitting there laughing quietly.

We finish up the food and buy a pie, and I spend the next hour of the trip listening to music and trying to get to sleep.

So that was what I did today.
