Canobie Continued


<----- Megan's face morphed with an alien's. Now that I'm sitting here at my computer over 24 hours after the actual trip, I can't think of anything that you would want to read that is worth mentioning. I'll probably say some stuff anyways, because in all honesty, EVERYTHING I type is a bunch of meaningless hobo snot. Except my words are germ free and don't require Kleenex. Unless you're bored to tears... but I'd rather think about more pleasant things, like our celebrity sighting of Michael Jackson yesterday! I was not aware of this, but recently, Canobie Lake Park installed an eight foot tall statue of Michael Jackson right by it's entrance. Hold on, let me Google it and insert it below: Nevermind. I can't find an image of a Michael Jackson statue from that park. But that's beside the point. The point is that I saw Michael Jackson's reincarnated being at the park yesterday! Except it was female and was working as a person who picked up trash. But the lady had the same weird stringy black hair, pale complexion, oddly shaped nose, and was even wearing ONE WHITE GLOVE. It was eerie. I would've shown Megan and Shannon, but they were in line to get food and such. When we were in line for the StarBlaster, we were stared at by this child whose gender we couldn't identify until an adult figure said her name, which I forget. We saw Her in line for the water slides too. Along with Afro boy, who, needless to say, had an afro. We tried the game where you wack a small metal stump with a mallet and try to get the light to shoot up to the top. I got it the highest, to 87 (I used my want for the cute little monkey prize as fuel) and both Shannon and Megan got in the lower 70s. Arms of steel, right here!

Just to clarify, I'm the one with the jacked arms. Boom! Boom! Fi-yah pow-ah!
Anyways, I didn't win the monkey. You had to get at least 100. And I asked the bored looking teenager if he could get it to hit 100, and he just nodded at me. I raised one eyebrow in a very cool fashion, challenging him to prove it. I laughed when he hit it the first time and it only went to 82. But I think I irritated him, because the next time he hit it, the light reached 108. I felt like a jerk AND a weakling. And when I asked if he got a monkey because he got over 100, he gave me a look that said "Keep walking, Squirt". I should learn to not converse with strangers. Even if it's only through raised eyebrows and muffled laughter. When we went down the water tubes, Shannon went first, smiling happily at the relief of water after an hour of waiting in line. But then... oh, Megan. She hadn't even rounded the first bend when she screamed at the top of her lungs, like she was on the Tower of Terror or something, instead of a two story tall water slide. Everyone around me started yelling "Holy shoot! Who was that girl?" And being me, I turned to the Asian man next to me and said, "I don't really know her." He just laughed at me. I'm pretty sure that's all we did that was semi-worth mentioning. Plus, Julia and her friend want to video chat their other friend.
Peace, my homies!
