hip-hip hooray for better-than-below-average nights.

i haven't written in a while... my apologies, i've been preoccupied with life for a bit i think. although things aren't neccessarily improving mountains at a time, yesterday was a good step.

kelly and i went on a date to culver's, talking about girlie things and giggling like 8th graders. i needed it.

after stuffing my face as though it was the only thing in the world i was good at i headed over to steve's with brett, sean, and jason where half of them drank a few beers, had some pizza, and we sat down to watch "The Beach" with leonardo dicaprio. even though they're so distracting most of the time, i laughed more than not, and i think it's true what they say - laughter is the best medicine. surround yourself with people who make you smile and i think you're set in life. as for the ones that make you smile that leave you, or you drift from, well, i'm still trying to figure that part out.

overall, it was a fairly entertaining night, which i can't say i've had in a while.

tonight, although i don't hold expectations of the same, i'm hoping it's at least semi-comparable.

i hope everything is well with you. smile, be happy. everything's all right in the end... if it's not all right, it's not the end.

etc. etc.
