Back from a party at Eloosha's. I took the 5:32 train in, because it was the one that arrived the closest to 8 (when people where actually invited). He wasn't home yet, but another kid who came back from college with him was (he lives in Mississippi and is going back to New Haven take a summer class....so going home didn't make sense).
I came in and started cleaning, because apparently that's what I do? Eloosha's parents and sister are in Europe right now, so I loaded the dishwasher and cleaned of the table and...yeah. The Mississippi kid tried helping but didn't know what to do and I didn't want to boss him around and it was wonderfully awkward.
Cleaning was so worth the reaction. Eloosha entered through the back door, took a couple steps. Stopped in his tracks, started looking around, and had a 'why is clean?' expression on his face. I was trying not to break out laughing on the couch.
Eventually Eloosha's hs friends came. For a bit it was just me...and like, 5 guys I've met twice before but don't know. So. Awkward. I just sat silently eating chips. Thankfully Yulka came and saved me. And then other girls that I also kinda know but who I'm less awkward with than with the boys.
I also painted about have of my parents room today (they got new tiles, now I'm repainting so that I can take their place sleeping in the basement instead of the bunked bed.)
Yulka and I invented a new 'painting the wall' dance move. too cool.
And my grandmother, youngest brother and I planted some petunias (white and pink) by the azalea.
