T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs

[sweetvalleygirl]

WHO: Beach Party People!
WHERE: The MAC, the party bus, a rest stop, and the Wildwood Beach!
WHEN: Friday 11am and onward into the afternoon and evening
WARNINGS: Possible make outs? Possible fights?
SUMMARY: Teens and young adults in an RV driving to NJ to have a drunken bonfire. What could possibly go wrong???
FORMAT: OPEN! There will be sections for different locations and times of day, so feel free to tag in and collect as much CR as you like!

Jessica was beyond excited. In the days leading up to the RV trip, she barely shut up about it. Even as she boarded the RV Laura had procured for their adventure and took the shotgun seat, she could barely stop talking. It was a beautiful day in the City, and the weather reports for their destination in Southern New Jersey called for blue skies and sunshine. It would be perfect beach-going weather, and it was bound to be the perfect summer night!

Those leg-pulling off jerks... and hey, hey it does look a scorpion!



-- And I have no idea what that is.

[hellisforchildren]

What?

[ he peers over his glasses ]

That's a human spleen.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

A spleen?!



You know what, I think-- I think it might be.

[hellisforchildren]

[ he shrugs, which is difficult from this position ]

Don't question it, man, the clouds never lie!

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

All right, all right, I will put my faith in the clouds.

[hellisforchildren]

[ he shakes his head ]

They won't let you down, man.

They never let you down.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

I don't know, man, I'm not sure it's safe to put that much trust into anything.

Even clouds.

[hellisforchildren]

I know one thing, man, one thing I can trust. And that's me. ...Usually.

Sometimes trusting others works out, too.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Ha! Now that, finally, is something I can agree with.

Still, only sometimes.

[hellisforchildren]

Clouds, though, you can count on them to be clouds. They're not gonna break type, they just float sometimes, rain other time, and dissipate when it's their time.

If you know the environment, you know how the clouds'll be. People can be like that too, but they won't always be the same.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Guess that's true. Clouds are always clouds. Nice, dependable clouds.

Perhaps it's better people aren't like that. Change isn't always bad. Just, you know, most of the time.

[hellisforchildren]

Change is scary, people don't know how to deal with it.

But sometimes, change gotta come. Can't let things stagnate, not when they're looking moldy as is.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Understatement of the year.

True enough, better to let things change than to let them go to rot.

[hellisforchildren]

New form might even be better.

It just takes getting used to.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

You just adjust, sure, but new forms are overrated.

[hellisforchildren]

Not as much as the old ones.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Not everything old should be lost.

[hellisforchildren]

Nor everything new feared.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Dude, don't. I'm not talking about-- you wouldn't understand. It's not about...

[hellisforchildren]

[ he folds his hands across his chest ]

I'm just saying, we as a society fear change so much that "new" gets an undeserved bad rap.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

All right, all right. You've got a point. Just saying... change isn't always a good thing.

[hellisforchildren]

And neither is its lack.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Well, duh. Things have to change. It's human nature.



Doesn't mean every change should be embraced.

[hellisforchildren]

Listen, my point is that right now the odds of them being accepted is slim to none. Big difference between taking on more and all.

It isn't so black and white, here.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Why do you keep assuming my morality is that black and white... ?



And didn't we already have this argument. Like, just a few hours ago?
