I hate floods. Why does this place either drown you or suffocate you. I get on the bus at 5:25, standard time theres a little rain outside...ok a lot so I'm soaking and dripping (the white shirt was a really good move on my part). Everyone gets dropped off except me and maybe another kid. 926 big busy road it's pitch black and the fucking driver says get out and get on the bus behind him. We get off, so dark that the inside of my eyelids don't look much different. I stumble to the "vehicle" behind us, and its a truck. Just a guy, in a truck. The other kid gets in...I follow. He gets dropped off. I'm alone in the front seat of some unmarked truck with this random guy driving me home, wtf? 3 FUCKING HOURS LATER at 8:15 AT NIGHT after 4 detours and awkward moments he finds a way to get me home but only after talking on the walky talking expressing that "I don't think I'll be able to get this one home. But I don't think she wants to come stay with me, hahahha" i get myself off the fucking truck and walk up the driveway more saturated with water than if I had jumped into a pool. So bad. Ah well, I thawed and dried by today but only to see my road have layers of asphalt peeled off and on the grass and people's fields turned into oceans and cars trying to be boats and failing miserably floating pathetically in the middle of a stream that used to be pavement.
