Everything’s been going well except that I haven’t been writing enough. Last week I found a diskette in the bottom of my closet with some of my writing from 7 or 8 years ago. True to form, I left a message (‘IMPORTANT NOTICE.txt’) for whoever might stumble across the diskette:

This disk is a backup of Aaron’s word files.
It was created on January tenth, 1997
Please do not delete these files.
They are VERY IMPORTANT
Thanx

Which reminds me why I ought to blog more often. Anybody who cares right now has already heard my stories, but who knows who might find this thing buried in a closet in 2012.

So here are the Cliff Notes from my amazing weekend. (This site is a backup of Aaron’s memory. Please do not delete these memories. They are VERY IMPORTANT— Thanx.)

At noon on Friday I left work early, holding my first paycheck ever (three hundred and eighty dollars). It was about 75 degrees out. I untucked my shirt and rolled down the windows of my grandmother’s car, which I’m borrowing for the summer so I can get to work. It’s a tiny old car and no matter how hard I try it can only pick up one radio station in town, and not even a good one either. But on my way to the bank to deposit my first paycheck I got three decent songs in a row. You could say it qualified as one of those moments.

After the bank I went to pick up my tux and Kristen’s corsage, but the tailor was closed (out getting a tooth pulled) and and corsage wasn’t ready yet. (Truth be told, I could have stayed at work a little longer. Oops.) Went home and had lunch with my sisters instead, then did the errands later. Didn’t mind the extra driving at all, no sir.

Prom went so well that I really couldn’t do justice to it if I tried. For example: with about a hundred people waiting in the portrait line they announced that people had to start going to their tables for dinner so they couldn’t take any more people for pictures. We were the last ones in front of the spot where they cut off the line.

Just that good.
