C Street!
Damn, I've gotten bad at updating this thing. Seriously. Anyhow, these past few weeks have certainly been interesting. Some bad things have happened, as well as some really good things. We'll do bad first. I managed to scrape the front bumper of my car pretty badly because I ran into a really rough wall while I was fishing around for my sunglasses...and I have to pay for it myself because I have lots of cash-money from waitressing. Bleh. And to make things worse, I lost all confidence with driving after that, and proceeded to scratch the damn car yet ANOTHER time last night. I'm not having that one repaired because I don't feel like shelling out another several hundred dollars. My dad will just have to deal with it--I wouldn't be surprised if I end up getting disowned from the family. But I think my parents feel at least a little bit sorry for me after I called them last night in hysterics after the second incident...oy.
But other than that, things have pretty much been going swimmingly. Sunday night was ridiculous amounts of fun--I went out to C Street (the gay bar in town) with my friends from IHOP Alethia, Cierra, and Alisha. We had so much fun--I had several Long Island Ice Teas and then I was out on the dance floor with everyone else. I wore my awesome new zebra-print top and I looked pretty damn good, if I do say so myself. It was sad when the bar closed at 2 and we had to leave. We drove over to IHOP for a late-night snack, and then everything basically went to hell in a handbasket. Cierra evidently couldn't handle her alcohol and made a huge scene when she attempted to attack a table full of people in the restaurant. This resulted in me physically restraining her in the parking lot for a half an hour and then calming her down for the next half hour after she finally sobered up. I don't remember signing up for the role of babysitter--she's 17, and if she's going to go out with us, she had better be prepared to behave like a normal person next time. Anyhow, we ended up getting kicked out of IHOP by Dave the manager (I must say, Cierra definitely deserved it) and then I drove everyone home.
Cierra is going to get written up and she got suspended from work for a few days, but Alethia and I didn't even get a slap on the wrist, which I think is just a bit unfair...I mean, we were the ones buying her drinks and smuggling her into bars and everything. But when I called Dave to ask if I was suspended as well, he acted like that was the most ridiculous thing he had ever heard and assured me that I wasn't in trouble. Sweet. Amy from work was all upset that she missed seeing me let loose a little bit and asked if I could come out with them again this weekend. I told her I was going to be out of town the next two weekends, and she was all, "Well, then we'll go out three weekends from now!" Awwww. That made me happy because I want Amy to like me and I think she does. Hooray!
So yeah...that was a lot of fun, overall. IHOP definitely makes my life a whole lot more interesting, that's for sure. In other news, this is my last week of summer classes! I have a final on Thursday and then another one on Saturday, but both of them should be fairly easy. And then I go to Alabama on Saturday afternoon to visit my extended family for the weekend. I'm really excited about this--politics aside, I love the South. I wish I could stay a bit longer, but this will have to do. And then the next weekend is SSC! Woohooooo!!! My superiors at IHOP are kind of mad at me for needing so many days off, but that's just too bad for them. Besides, everyone is always bitching about how they don't get scheduled for enough shifts, so I don't see what the big problem is. Meh. My point is that these next few weeks are going to be so much fun! And then we move into our new apartment and school starts...again. Oh well. I guess that's about it...I must go print out my Anthropology paper and then go to bed. Hasta later!!
