Uncle's Party

Listening to: Lacuna Coil
Feeling: sinful
Today was cool. I woke up around 11 and my dad asked if we wanted to go to the Way Station in Newhall. I wanted to get out of the house....so we went. Then he said that we had to go to my uncle's, which isn't far from our house, only further up Bouquet. So yeah...something to do. When we first got to my uncle's I felt out of place, which is usually how I feel when I first get somewhere. My grandparents were both there as well as a lot of other people in my family and stuff....so I just kinda sat over to the side with my cell phone playing solitaire and not really talking too much to anyone. People kept asking me what I had planned for summer and if I was driving and working yet, to which my response was I had no idea what I was going to do over the summer and no I wasn't working or driving yet. I felt like a bit of an idiot......so I went out and got my drawing pad and sat in the living room by myself and worked on my latest piece. Then my grandmother came in and wanted to see what I was doing and when I showed her she freaked out because she hadn't heard that I like.......draw? I hardly ever see my grandparents on my dad's side. But she was amazed and showed the rest of the people there. They thought that a lot of them were photos and I was in a photography class or something. Then when they found out that I drew them they were like....wait...what?? Mostly what made me happy was that my grandfather, the one that I absolutely hate and have had problems with in the past, asked me if he could see them. He was really impressed and said that I should be proud that I accomplished something like that and said I should persue (?) a career doing that. Another woman now wants me to draw her horse, which I've never done before....but it would be interesting to try. I have so many commissions these days I don't know where to start....but at least I'm gonna get paid for this. Awesomeness. So yeah...that was cool. I got attention and wasn't looked upon as the idiot that can't drive and doesn't work and that goes to the continuation school anymore. Thank god. The food was good. I felt like I ate too much, tho. But I didn't eat a lot. I'm just not used to eating so much anymore since I'm at home a lot of the time and I don't think about eating. Ugh...the only thing that bothered me was the drive there and back. It's all wind-y and makes me feel ill driving on the road...I just got home, too, so I still feel kinda sick. God I hope this feeling goes away soon....it's making me oh so tired. We were watching The Twilight Zone there, too. Coolness. And I played that game...whatsitcalled....with the little dudes on sticks....and the ball....dammit I forget what it's called lol. But I played it with my brother and I was toootally winning and he gave up. Lameness. And then my uncle's bull got out of it's little fence area and started running around, which was freaky because it has these huuuuge horns. But then it found the pig feed and went over and was trying to eat it so my uncle herded him back into his pen. So I walked over and went to see the pigs. They're funny. So yeah. A lot of eating and socializing today. Interesting. Now I feel sick still. So I'm gonna go lay down or something. Bleh.
