Relay for Life

I went to this thing called Relay for Life, which is a fundraiser and awareness thing for cancer...yeah, I'm not going to lie...I basically went to hang out and to eat food...

But then I started to feel sort of bad...someone sang this song that was sort of depressing, then they started saying stuff like "If cancer has affected your grandpa, please get up and walk"...so there were all these people that got up and started walking, and it was then I realized that I was no different than Will Ferrel in "Wedding Crashers" when he is at the funeral. Oh yeah...and some girl gave me a hard time about me taking the food, saying something like "you are stealing from the cancer patients!"

But anyway, after that it was a pretty good time. Some of those bags they put up with candles lit on fire, and there were chalk pictures all over the ground.

I played trip war with some people. Did you ever play that in elementary school? If you didn't, you are surely missing out on something very important.

Oh yeah...maybe you have heard from previous posts that I am trying to reconcile some things between me and some other people whom I will not disclose. These reconcilations are going well. One is pretty good, and the other is good too. Two of them are good. It is good.

Well, I'm out. I have to work at history day tomorrow...I have to be in Smith Curtis at 7:30 am!

ps...this is relevant to fiction writing because I had all these experiences today that I can maybe write about. It is good to get the ideas flowing first, though, and in my case, I get them flowing on the blog.
