Saturday Sucks

K, so, today I got up early. 7ish. So, not really early, but before the rest of my family. Got online, replied to some e-mails etc. Hung out with the family, ate, showered and got dressed. The usual. The because it's Saturday the rest of the family got up and hurried around getting ready for church and freaking out. (I'm Seventh-Day Adventist) Just like they do every week. Jeez, if they'd get up before 8:30 they wouldn't have to hurry. I mean, mom was leading the singing today, so we had to be there at 8:45. My amazingly brilliant family thinks that being somewhere at 8:45 means rolling out of bed at 8:15. Grrr. Oh well, I was happy 'cause one of the guys that goes to boarding school was gonna be there. Unfortunately Mitch and Ryan were going to be too. Oh well. So, we did the normal split up by age group for classes thing, then hang out for ten minutes, then back in for church. Fun. Actually, not too bad since I got to sit with Sara, "Donkey (a friend of ours)," and Taylor (Harry's sister). After church we have a potluck every week, so I changed to normal clothes, then helped get that ready. As usual. While Sara and I helped, the guys hung out outside. Ditchers. Anyway, down in our adorable little down town they're having a little farmers market type thing called the "Spring Fling." Yet another thing they do every year. I'd have to say that next to the 4th of July this is pretty much the biggest thing. Harry said that Casanova was down there, so he ran down there and got Casanova and Jake (another guy we know) to come up to the church for lunch. Which was awesome. We all hung out playing catch, eating, and talking. Seriously, what could be better? But, then the adults were already to go, and Sara had to go to Boise with her mom. So, it was just me and the guys and a few adults. The guys wanted to go back to the Spring Fling, and wanted me to come, so I asked my parents and they were like "NO WAY!" Jeez, these guys are awesome, it's not like there's anyway they'd ever hurt me or anything like that. Anyway, I said goodbye to all of them, and got in the car. Very sad. So, after mom and dad got in the car I started asking them about it. Naturally they were like "Because one girls hanging out with a bunch of guys isn't smart." Jeez. So, then I explained that Harry's dad and sister were going, and that Harry's mom was already there. Then I was in trouble for not mentioning that there would be adults there. Well, Hello! When you interrupt me to say no, how am I supposed to tell you things like that? Grrr.... I hate parents sometimes. So, here I am at home while a bunch of my friends are just hanging out and having an awesome time less than 2 miles away from me. And I can't do anything about it. And it's not like I'll get to hang out with them this summer. I'll be busy, and they'll be busy, and Casanova probably won't even be in town most of the summer. Stupid growing up and having to work and stuff. It sucks. Oh well, a few more years and we'll all be on our own and I can hang out with them no matter what my parents say. So, I'm bored. Anyone have any ideas of stuff to do?

I've just been informed that we are going on a hike. Unfortunately my family doesn't hike very well, they are complete wimps. Hence the bulletin I put on myspace:

Grrr, I wanted to go to the Spring Fling with the guys, but Mom and Dad said no. Now I have to go on a hike. Which wouldn't be too bad if they actually hiked. But, they're super slow and give up too easily. I'm stuck with a bunch of wimps for the whole day. Not fun. So, when you hear that someone died from old age while going for a hike near Banks, that's me.

Love you all,
Rebecca

P.S. Sadly, I'm not exaggerating their slowness.
