J.A.M. - 21. Chapter 20

here it is, the long awaited chapter. let me know what you think😀

J.A.M.

By Wesley Lewis

Chapter 20

 

Entry 59

Its been a few weeks since Melvin moved in with us. I have to say after the first night, things got easier between the two of us. Even Phillip has gotten used to him and even forgave him for all the stuff he’s done to him. All our other friends are skeptical though. Benji is barely civil and Kurt and Will won’t even come over unless Melvin isn’t here. I’ve got to figure out some way that I can get everyone together without trying to rip each other’s heads off. At least Wesley and Seamus understand what happened and are making the effort to get to know him better. I’m thinking maybe we could do something new and exciting like paintball or maybe even a bowling night out. Although the paintball idea sounds even better we could get everyone into two teams that way they have to talk and stuff!!! I’ve got to go talk to the dads about this!!!!

 

Entry 60

Paintball is a go! The dads thought it was a great idea and a good way to bond. So, after asking all the friends’ parents we had ten people all together. I figured that Will, Melvin, Kurt, Rob, and Benji cold be one team while me, Phillip, Samantha, Brandon, and Chloe on the other. Wesley and Seamus were having a date day so they declined. The dads agreed to chaperone and we are all set for this weekend! School has been pretty boring lately. At least Wesley’s dad is a better and much more interesting teacher than old lady Jones was. He makes the math seem easier. He uses real examples instead of the stupid ones like Alice has eight cookies and Jaime ate six. Those kids have serious sweet teeth. Its amazing what a difference a teacher can make even my grades have improved in other areas too. Well, I’ve got some homework to do.

 

Entry 61

Jesus Christ do you know how hard it is to get paint out of your hair?? I had to wash my hair like five times before it all came out. It was totally awesome though. It didn’t start that way though, Will and Kurt weren’t too keen on being on the same team as Melvin but they had to suck it up and do it anyway because I wasn’t taking no for an answer. After we finally got all of the teams sorted out how I wanted them. After we got the gear and everything we separated and from there on out it was total warfare. Poor Phillip lasted all of ten minutes until Kurt hit him in the butt. He is so cute when he pouts. The first casualty on the other team was Benji who I am proud to say I nailed in the chest. After that it took another couple of hours until it was just Kurt and Chloe left. I’m embarrassed to say that I got outplayed by a girl. In the end though, Kurt ended up getting a shot in on Chloe. It was hilarious watching her face as she took her gear off. For a girl she took the hit a lot better that Will did. He whined the whole time he was getting hit. I think his team even got him a couple of times for being a bad sport. After the winning team celebrated we just had a free for all for about an hour after that. I think after today everybody got along with the other even netter now. Kurt and Will were laughing as they triple teamed Brandon. It was hilarious. The girls were way too good at the game though. So now I’m off to bed after a very long and fun day.

Paintball was a clever idea! But judging from how poorly I used to do in Bungie’s Marathon series, I’m sure I’d have been the first one killed! Clumsy and uncoordinated isn’t the best combination for these sorts of things!  ;–)

Great chapter. Paint balling was a great idea to get everyone to bond.  I hope everyone can start to get along and forgiveness will be given.  Thanks.

You can thank @Bndmetl for the paintball idea. I'm thinking laser tag next, you know less bruises and no extra showers

Do people still do LAN Parties? Or does everything happen over the internet these days? Back in the ‘90s, when you were probably still in elementary school, we used to play Bungie’s Marathon trilogy on the Macs at work. A few were connected to the network via LocalTalk, but most used a direct ethernet connection (fairly rare at the time).  ;–)

 

 

Owning my own Ethernet Switch, a bunch of ethernet cables, and an electrical extension cord meant that I could connect to an internet connection (and share that connection with others) at a homeless services facility back when I was homeless. The building was used by several different groups and I think the agency that paid for the connection had control of the rooms during the evening and overnight. (We were using the connection during the morning and early afternoon.)

 

Homeless people are ingenious about locating and utilizing power outlets too. It’s amazing how many people know that BART cars have a single power outlet hiding under one of the seats (I think they were there so they could run vacuum cleaners on the carpets and fabric upholstery before they eliminated those features in favor of vinyl floor coverings and vinyl upholstery that are much easier to keep clean. The new cars that BART is slowly receiving from Bombardier probably don’t have the outlets.)

Back in the ‘60s, I remember playing a reverse version of Hide and Seek. One person hides and everyone else tries to find that person. The last one to find the group gets to hide next, but the problem is some people don’t look very hard in an effort to get to hide. (It might work better if it’s the first person to find the hidden person.) The big advantage to Hide and Seek is that it’s free and can be played in a public park.  ;–)

 

On the other hand, I remember playing H&S inside a friend’s house. I remember one person hiding in a closet behind a bunch of dresses and shoes (on the floor). My brother climbed up the walls of a closet (like the rock climbers who do the same thing in ‘chimneys’) and was above where the Seeker thought to look!  ;–)

Back in my day kids played in the yard not on these dang phones ask the time. They read actual books and enjoyed things like sleepovers. I admit the closest kid to my age was my cousin and you can bet i played Barbie with her. And when she came over ( which was easy since she lived right next door) she played power rangers with us.

GI Hoes? I thought that was the special edition Barbie in Fatigues! In multiple skin-colors and body-types, of course.  ;–)

Alice still has eight cookies, Jaime is not a thief!  ;–)

 

Just because Jaime ate six cookies doesn’t mean he took Alice’s cookies! Maybe he baked his own cookies. Why do math teachers think one kid had all the cookies available?

 

Maybe fiends stole the cookies. Maybe fiends ate all the cookies in the world, creating a cookie shortage. Fiends are the worst.  ;–)

The girls were way too good at the game though.

The girls probably did more planning – they aren’t overwhelmed by testosterone flowing through their veins like the boys!  ;–)
