Dream

I dreamt that I had to take all of my old orientation group from Albion to Meijer at the beginning of a new school year. It was lame that I had to do orientation or take them to Meijer, because they've all been here three years and know what they're doing. They were also shipped off to Meijer before they had a chance to drop off their luggage, so we had to lug it through the store.

Then I was walking down the street with my dad when this car drove up with "Blogger" written on it. I pointed it out to my dad and the guy inside thought I was waving so he stopped, but then realized he didn't know me as I said something like "No, I... I don't... I love blogs. I blog! I want to... I love Blogger!"

So he thought I was a crazy person. My dad and I sat down at a picnic table to eat sandwiches and more people arrived and they ended up having an interview right at our picnic table. The Korean interviewer would ask the Blogger representative a question, his translator would translate, and she would respond. There were such zingers as "Our president uses a different software to blog. What do you think of that?"

I was rudely awakened by someone demanding that I tight-roll some jeans. I wish that had been another dream, because it sounds like it, but it's 80s day at Señorita C's high school.

I didn't demand. I asked. Besides, I only woke you up ten minutes before you wanted to be woken up. You saw the horrendous job I did on her jeans.

I don't know if I did any better, groggy and unbespectacled...

You did. My attempts at tight-rolling sucked. It may have to do with the fact that I was five when the 1980s ended.

I don't think I ever tight-rolled anything. But I don't know for sure.

Taryen Hartjes showed me how to tight roll back in like 88 and I thought that it was the stupidest thing ever. A moment of which I am infinitly proud

That's funny, b/c you don't even use Blogger... I liked the part about dragging the luggage through the store. And even i tight-rolled jeans back in high school -- altho the tight rolls usually became large rolls and i looked like a farmer half the time....

I used to use Blogger.

Oh, and I don't know you. High school??!!!1

tight rolling (or "pegging" as all the cool kids liked to say) ruled.

nothin' like deliberately trying to cut off circulation to your feet in the name of fashion.

Matt was held back a lot, he's really 35 *shh!*

Seriously, high school?? I knew you were old, but... And I've never met any farmers who tight rolled their pants... Not to be critical of you on someone else's blog or anything... ;)

gravatar MaTT - May 12, 2004 - 9:34 PM - ℓ

Yikes! Didn't people do that in high school too? What part of the Eighties are we talking? Maybe it was middle school... I dunno, it all seems so far away -- i guess i AM old :(

And no, farmers don't tight-roll their pants -- they just generally roll them up, which makes the rolls big...

Maybe Pennsylvania is just really behind the times and didn't start tight-rolling until 1993...

If I remember correctly, I was in 5th grade when I got my pair of SKIDZ pants. Remember those? That was in late-1989 or early-1990. It was around then that pegging pants was fashionable.

We also wore an onion on our belt, because it was the style at the time.

lol

gravatar The Urstodian - May 13, 2004 - 3:02 AM - ℓ

an onion? wtf? I used to fold my pants up because at that time, they were too long for me and Taryn showed me I guess because I think that she thought that I was trying to tight roll. That was a moment when my common sense overruled my fashion sense.

onion reference

gravatar Smuj - May 13, 2004 - 9:24 AM - ℓ

Yay! :-)
