Good Times

     Hello, viewers.

     I spent a pleasant day today.  It wasn't at all eventful, but it was nice.

     I went to sleep at about 5:00 this morning, after spending the night drinking several cups of tea, and watching episodes of a British syfy series called Primeval online.

     I woke up at about 12:30 p.m., and hung about the house for a couple of hours before going to have a Bible study with my friends Marlow and Daisy.  Their names aren't really Marlow and Daisy, but we'll call them that for anonymity's sake.

     After studying for a couple of hours, we mutually decided that an ice cream would be very acceptable.  We went to the local pharmacy, where they have a wide variety of flavours, at very low prices.  Daisy got a double-scoop chocolate chip mint, Marlow got a scoop of cake flavoured ice cream, and a scoop of (toxic) cotton candy flavour (if you saw it, and tasted it, you'd know why I say toxic; it certainly can't be natural), and I got a scoop of butter pecan.  We brought a scoop of pistachio home to my brother (let's call him Ace).

     After that, we dropped Daisy back off at her house, and I kidnapped Marlow for the night.  We relaxed for a bit, talking about random things, and punching my furniture (don't ask), until my neighbor-friend Irene (also not her real name) came over, and we discussed old times in an animated fashion (by old I mean really old; we've known each other for nearly eighteen years).

    While we were chatting, Ace went out into the backyard, and made a fire in our wheelbarrow, and began making s'mores for himself and his neighbor-friend.  Of course, we joined him, and he made us each a s'more.  When Ace left, we remained outside by the fire, chatting over hot beverages, and reading off-beat re-tellings of classic fairy tales.

     Hours later we finally came back inside, smelling strongly of smoke.  Irene stayed for a bit, and then went home, leaving Marlow and I to settle in for the night. 

 I hope you've all had a lovely day as well.  I wonder if I'll sleep tonight... Probably not, I'm guessing.  In any case, good morrow, viewers.
