It has been a busy weekend for me, working one job then heading right to another. Hopefully I don't have to do any more 16 hour days, they get old really quick. Since I have a little time on my hands I can tell you what I can remember from my mind lacking sleep memory. (I know it does not sound right)
Ok then
Friday I got out of work at a great 5pm. Went home took a shower,got dressed(better than going out naked I though anyway) then meet Doug at Denny's. We had been planing to go out to a local bar that night with another friend of ours.
Doug had another party to go to and then we were going to meet up afterward, at about 10pm. So I called up my Chad (my other friend) and told him the plan, he say that he be at Denny's around 8pm or 8:30pm.(Mind you the time I am telling him this I am still there (time 6:20pm or so)).Doug and I leave Denny's after we ate witch was about 7pm.
To skip ahead a tad, I finally met up with Chad at about 8:40pm or so. at around 10pm we gave Doug a call, he said he was still at the party and he was going to be leaving shortly.(Chad is pretty tried at this point, he has been up for awhile and has not been able to sleep well lately)Anyway we told him to text us when he was on his way there. Well 11pm comes and goes...11:30 goes by...So I give him a call. As soon as he started talking I figured that he was really drunk, and that he did not realize how much time had gone by. He told me to go there and he would been there at midnight. I told Chad what he had said(he was nodding off at this point). He finally decided that he was going to go home and go to bed. I told him that I was still going to try to meet him there. Needless to say he had never show. I tried calling a few more times to see what was going on then I finally told him I was going to go home to bed, and that I would see him Saturday night(time 1:50am) SO I went home to bed SO I could get up for my 16 hour work day that started at 7:30am and ended at a little passed midnight.
When I woke up Saturday morning (After I got dressed) I looked my cell phone and there was a message from Doug. It had said that he had gotten pulled over and that he was getting ticketed.
My other friend had gotten a few messages as well (Like that he was going 60-35). All the messages basically said that he was not in the best frame of mind. So naturally I was worried,
so I text him, and waited awhile (sometimes it takes him awhile to text back 'cause he is at work). I did not hear from him till Saturday night (mind you if course I kept messaging him every once in a while during the day to see what was going on). I was on my way home at the time he text's me (To make this a little shorter pretty much 'cause my memory is fading at this point)and it was saying that he was going to end his life. So at this point I am freaking out a little bit,
I go to Chad's work and fill him in on whats is going on. After that I pulled up to his house and waited there. I again text him and let him know that I was there for him. Then he said that he was not at home that he was some were he could not be found. well after sitting there for about two and a half hours I went home to bed (I had another 16 hour day ahead of me)
All in all this was my weekend. To let you know he is still doing ok. Chad and I have given him room to think, I know he needs it. And, I finally heard from him today. He said that he still needed time to think and that maybe he would see us again shortly.
With that I shall say good night, and I hope I can update my journal with better news.
THe hand you thought you felt,
THe voice you thought you heard,
The person you thought you saw,
Was just my way of letting you
know I am here if needed.
