Lets go to the mall!

I just got a new dildo, and I don't think I've ever been in love with something this inanimate before.

It was a gift for Jack, more or less. Something that he can strap-on and fuck me with. Not quiet exactally what he wanted, it's bright pink. But still, something to strap on and just hump away with. And since I won't really see him until Monday, I got it for the weekend. I already want to be fucked with it.

But the much more interesting part of the story is how we got it. We took, a day trip to Modesto, me and my girlfriend, my brother and her boyfriend. In case that last sentence confused you, I have this long running joke with one of my female friends that we call each other "Brother". Kinda started out when she said I was like a brother to her, this pissed me off because I do not like to be told I am unfuckable. So I called he brother back, she pick up on it, this pissed me off more. But anyways, me, my GF, my female friend, and her BF went on a day trip to Modesto, which was pretty much the closest place to get a dildo. All hail the mall. We we get into Modesto, we have a little accident, my GF, driving, didn't quite realize we were in the right turn lane. Results, a little paint damage to their car, and our left-side mirror is totally fucked up. And we have to wait an hour for the cops to show up and take a report while we are, and I'm not lying, half a block away from the mall.

The mall was normal, we walked past Hot Topic, we turned our heads towards the door, we see a life size picture of Edward, we keep on walking. We go to International Imports, we pick out a sweet dildo we think we have cash for, we count all out cash up, we're two bucks short. We remember a gift card, and then the machine says it's perfectly OK to buy a $30 item on a $25 non-reloadable gift card. After failing to convince the clerk that it's not her fault and it's ok to let us go because it said that the transaction went through, she checks it out and finds out we have seventy cents left. We pick out another, cheaper, dildo. We go to Cinabon and enjoy a snack. All is well.

Right before we are about to leave, we go to the bathroom, down this long hall. Now right next to the bathroom was a bunch of vending machines, and a photo booth. One of those old ones you use on vacations but they don't have any backgrounds, you know the type. But anyways, it's something to do while everyone I'm there with goes piss. I step inside and it moves, just a little, but enough to notice. I move my foot a bit and I can rock it back and forth. Interesting enough. So, one of my friends pop out of the bathroom and I show him, slightly interested. I mess around with it a bit more and this six-and-a-half-foot tall black mall cop say "Hey, knock that off," in a menacing black voice. I go, ok, ok, I'll be a good little boy. I watch the cop walk down the hall and turn away, completely out of site. Then I show the rest of my friends. The cop appears out of no where and goes, "You need to come with me." The cop won't even let me walk across the mall to get to the car, and he escorts my driver while me and the rest of my friends are waiting outside. At this point, I convince myself that my friend is pregnant. Because, first, she just got done puking in the bathroom, and second she told me off in the most serious tone, right in between bouts of laughter. "HAHAHAHA, God, what were you thinking, shaking a photo booth?!?! I mean he told you not to shake the photo booth and what did you do, you shook the photo booth, HAHAHA."

After my GF picks us all up, there all ganging up on me for getting us kicked out. "Did anybody else want something from the mall? Anybody? Anything? That's what I thought."

Hug and cry

My math teacher died today.

Either early today, or last night. But today we held a little remembrance ceremony for him. It was neat, everyone that knew him, or heard of him, which was almost everyone, was there. The leader of the school's Christ club lead the ceremony. Basically a few people said prayers, a few said nice things about him, then a moment of silence. I really didn't know the guy that well. Didn't really affect me, what people said was what people could have said about anyone.

Then one of my friends went up to say a few words, he was the last one too before the moment of silence happened. He is in my math class with me, we have been friends for pretty much as long as I've been at that school.

"I've only knew him for a few months, before he got sick. But basically from the second day of class, I could tell he was an awesome guy. He was a good man, and even though I didn't know him too well, I knew his daughter. And she is one of the best kids I ever met and I know that she had a really good dad. Thank you."

Again, those few meaningless words pass over as they could come from anyone. But then, something caught my eye, someone walking through the crowd, rather odd when everyone is standing still. I look up, it's my math teacher's daughter. And what does she do? She goes right up to my friend, turns him around and hugs him. They embrace and cry into each other arms. And as everyone is silent, just for a moment, the only thing you can here is the two crying and the few around them that hugged them too.

A tear falls from no where and lands on my cheek.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that no one is untouchable. There is always some way to make you cry, every sad sob story and every last sad pic couldn't touch something so close to home as someone you know so well losing a loved one.

Guess I'm human after all.
