Worthless and Weak

Friday I went to see Seth up in the far reaches of southern Maine.

I took the commuter rail up after work, and was picked up by Seth and his girlfriend. Seth didn't really tell me that his girlfriend would be spending the weekend as well, however I kind of expected it. They pick me up, and apparently, not only was his girlfriend staying the weekend, but his cousin as well. Which, well, is absolutely 100% normal and acceptable, considering that Seth lives with his Aunt and Uncle. But his cousin was throwing a party that night as well, and having a multitude of his friends stay over.

Now, you'd think that a normal person would, at least let me know that there would be a party when I'm staying over. But what a normal person would do has absolutely no correlation with what Seth would do. I don't think Seth even knew that his cousin was having a party, until the day of. As in, didn't have a clue whatsoever.

But how should Seth know? I mean, maybe he didn't think to ask him? It's not like Seth needs to ask him every day whether or not he will be having a party, ya know. But this just so happened to be his cousin's birthday.

I guess the original plan was to sleep in the basement, which is pretty cool because we wouldn't have to worry about sleeping in or making noise or anything.

But the basement was taken by party-goers, so I slept on Seth's Aunt's couch in the living room. Seth slept close by in the recliner. (in case you are wondering, Seth's girlfriend slept in Seth's room).

Now, the couch was perfectly comfortable physically, but I didn't sleep well. This was because I was sleeping in the living room in a home of a family I don't know very well. I probably got about 2 hours or so of sleep.

Saturday was fun too for a while. After a bit, I think that Seth got really tired, and stopped being very sociable to me, only to his girlfriend. Which really left me kind of bored, and I was in a random families home that I didn't know, and didn't have much to do. I felt somewhat uncomfortable. But it was a good weekend anyway.

Cheers!
