When I left off last time I’d just revealed that I was going to have to change my act for Mr. Warrior in just one day (unless you haven’t read Part 1 yet, in which case you should go read that first). Before I go any further, however, allow me to explain what Mr. Warrior is. Mr. Warrior is a competition at Carpinteria High School in which nominees (nominated by clubs and fall sports) compete to be crowned Mr. Warrior (homecoming king).

As it turned out, my costume was not yet finished, but more on that later. When I was satisfied with the effect and my front porch looked like the scene of a knife fight, David and I walked over to the party, which was just across the street. (more…)
