Good morning! Busy day today. I'm going with The Situation to an annual party at one of his friend's houses, where we will, reportedly, "drink beer, chill, and jam." I'm not really one for beer-drinking, and unless anyone wants to lend me a clarinet and my sixth grade songbook, I am pretty much jamless. However, I am a decidedly good chiller.
The party is supposed to last until the part of tonight that is actually tomorrow morning, and as I am generally incoherent past one o'clock, I have to post this now. So, um. What's up? I went mini-golfing yesterday and (surprise!) learned that I'm a terrible mini-golfer. I also went on a cute little romantic dinner date, where I ate a bowl of pasta bigger than my head in a less-than-cute-little-romantic fashion, and fell asleep with my mouth wide open and my face flat against the couch while the "Fresh Water" episode of Planet Earth played. It was another wild and crazy day in the life of Hayley Hoover; it's times like this that I truly understand why it is people follow me on the internet.
Oh, and since I didn't really get into it yesterday, I want to thank each and every one of you who left comments on my short stories. Posting something like that is always a little awkward... I almost feel like that uncle who insists on singing "The Wind Beneath My Wings" at the wedding reception, even though he's only an average singer, and everyone has to stand around with champagne glasses, noncommittally half-smiling. I appreciate those of you who said you enjoyed reading them, and those of you who left constructive criticism, and those of you who read them but didn't comment, and those of you who didn't read them but still chose to stick around. You're all too awesome for words... so I must express my gratitude through song. DID YOU EVER KNOOOW THAT YOU'RE MY HEEEROOOOOO?
I think I'll leave you on that note. I hope you all have a lovely Friday, and I'll see you sometime tomorrow.
Yesterday, I saw: the gorgeous lake where this party is going to be taking place. I thought to myself, "I could stand here and look at this all day!" and then realized, like, "Well, that's good. Because tomorrow, I have to."
Yesterday, I smelled: I don't remember, but here's something funny. The other day, at the youtube gathering, The Situation started one of his songs and my friend Caitlin screamed with delight. "You like this song?" I asked. She replied, "Yes, and I smelled garlic bread right when it started, and my love for garlic bread combined with the music and it was beautiful."
Yesterday, I touched: a golf... putter? Is that what it's called? And I apparently touched it WRONG, because my boyfriend kept trying to show me the proper technique or whatever, and I kept trying to convey to him that I really couldn't have cared less. No offense to those who like mini-golf.
Yesterday, I heard: church bells. They're a constant presence around here.
Yesterday, I tasted: awesome apple pie that The Situation's mom made. He warmed it up and gave me a piece for breakfast. That's love.

The combination of fantastic smells and good music: that is truly a powerful weapon. Reminds me of the time my friend played a bunch of his piano songs for me and at the end all I could say was, "You smell really nice". He played great, he really did, but him having just made us cookies just put it over the top.
I love Caitlin's reaction. I think you two are soul mates ; D
Ahahaha, welcome to the land of chicken riggies and tomato pie, and bowls of pasta that can rival the circumference of the moon. Oooh, good transition- Have you had a half moon cookie? Have a half moon cookie, if you haven't. I feel like you should cover all the bases with local foodstuffs while you're in the area.
Have a super awesome time at the lake : )
Have fun, Hayley, and...you know...be careful!
*end of obligatory pre-party cautionary warning*

It's good that you do not like miniture golf, as Kristina will soon or maybe already has found already found out people who enjoy miniture golf are evil (at least in Joss Whedon's universe)

Your blog always makes me nostalgic for the future, of chillin' and jammin' and ect.

i've been out of town for a bit and it's been fantastic to catch up with your blog :)
and while i was out-of-towning i reread an abundance of katherines and -even though you told us we were silly for likening your writing to John Green's- i can't helllpppp it. it has the same well written, witty, almost poetic writing style/feel.
sorry about that. ;)
also, i have the same nail polish color and have been refraining from painting them that color just because i see it on your blog EVERY DAY :)
Since today has been boring, I am going to regale you with senses from last night, post 12 PM therefore making it today

Your story was genuinely interesting. GOSH HAYLEY STOP FISHING FOR COMPLIMENTS. Hasn't communitychannel taught you anything? :P
Also, was that a somehow-intentional 30 Rock quote with the latter Wind Beneath My Wings line? I am probably imagining it because I just saw Reunion again last night and it's been stuck in my head ever since. But no harm in sharing my obscure delusions of TV show reference...right?
Today I Saw: A Clockwork Orange...what an effed up movie!
Today I Heard: A really entertaining story about college life.
