stinkin shallow procastinator (updated)

flomojopoanode by flomojopoanode · Jun 16, 2003 · 451 views · · · Journal

Yep, that's me. A couple months ago my parents told my sister and I that they were not going to our District Convention. Well, Jamie thought about this and realized..."where would I stay?" But me...I was like "Okay, have fun!". Now Jamie has arrangements to stay in a hotel room with another girl, but I have no arrangments. And I realized all of this a couple weeks ago, but I still have not tried to make arrangements. That's where the procrastination comes out, you see. So here I am, it's June 16th, and I am supposed to be going to the Convention from June 27-29. What am I going to do!?


UPDATE


Well, I'm staying at the Marriott, that's for certain. I'm so happy! I can't wait to see some of you at the convention! Special thanks to Joe for his kindness in offering me a place to stay.

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder ·

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

hmm, Thanks! I'm interested. Are you driving in every day? (I assume so) Who's car are you taking? Do you really have enough room for me? Are you ABSOLUTELY SURE I wouldn't be a bother? These are things to think about. Then get back to me. Thanks so much!

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder ·

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 · forrestina

it is pure quality. my mom got it for me when i was sick in 7th grade, and i went to school the next day and said "my mom got me monty python and the holy grail!" and all the other kids went "wooooah. dude you have the best mom EVER!"

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 · skaorsk8

haha my dad would probably say it was stupid i think he only likes star trek and little rascals...oh and old westerns like his dad

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder ·

yes! i knew you would know it

deanh77 deanh77Founder ·

that's edison's. I'm contemplating taking the train. it would be interesting.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

i have alwyas kind of wanted to take the train. do you live in booton still? i'm thinking that would take forever. like 3 hrs there. something ridiculous. actually, if i took mass transportation there, i would drive to the ferry, take that to the port authority, get on the LIE there. just a thought.

deanh77 deanh77Founder ·

nah, I live in Edison.

deanh77 deanh77Founder ·

yeah, I've got no idea how long it would take, but its only like 40 minutes to penn station from me.

snowykoalaOG 2003 ·

snowykoalaOG 2003 ·

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

Really..interesting. I keep seeing the name and thinking 'female'

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

me too. i'm always thinking, "wow i wonder who this new girl is?"

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

You can drive in all three days! It's really fun. I get to do it this year for the first time, by myself. I really can't wait. Over two hours of non-stop NY traffic fun! Or..Hotel Troatta!!

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

man i totally wanna bunk hotel trotta. josh said we get the whole basement to ourselves. don't know why that would be unexceptable. we could help him play mean tricks on his sister!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

No..I totally shot gun Josh's room (with the wonderful black walls) and he can have the basement

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

but he gave us the basement. i think its black down there too.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

Why are you shallow, Mr. Flomo?

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

I said I was shallow because I didn't grasp the concept of "I have to find my own way to stay for the convention". I merely thought, "well, have a good time at the wedding, mom and dad." I consider that shallow, because I didn't think about the implications of the situation. Look at me! I'm a moron!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

ohhh, you mean shortsighted?!

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

oh, that's wayyy better than the word I used. Thanks. Shortsighted it is. Not just "short", cause that'd be thai.

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001 ·

HEY! yer in my convention!! thats so kool!

ok4now ok4nowOG 2002 ·

(notice she didn't offer you a room...)

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

lol, she's probably intimidated by me, right tina!? ;) (how could you be?)

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001 ·

hahaha yea... intimidated... or the fact that i cant offer someone else's house... since im staying at someone's.

tesoro tesoroOG 2001 ·

HEY! i HATE you! you're staying at "someone's" house? i shouldnt let you stay at my house just for that comment! JERK! hahah

S
snowykoalaOG 2003 ·

hahah, you are just a someone

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

hey, she was protecting you, silly. You don't want me and a bunch of other losers asking you if we can stay at your house, too, do you?

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

i'm staying at jahanna's house. it's suprisingly comfortable, considering all the unncessary kitchen space she has.

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

Yahanna, why haven't you called me for the kitchen yet?

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001 ·

haha, did you read todd's comment...? thats exactly why i didnt write your name... but then again, if people couldnt figure that out, i guess theyre pretty dumb.

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

well, then, I can't WAIT for my assembly! Hope to see ya there

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder ·

i think we're gonna go to the saturday day of yours, maybe sunday too, but we're driving.

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·
