Z'omg.. Memoirs of a driver
Best week of LIFE, starting with breakfast at Smitty's with Bronwyn on Saturday.
Then I slept all day.
Then I went to the bar. That was fuuuuuuuuuuuuun. Best night at the bar in MONTHS. Only SECOND night at the bar in MONTHS lol.
Kendra came home with me afterwards and we slept ALL day. By all day I mean got home at 6AM after driving through at McDonald's and screaming at Bronwyn through the intercom and then through the window.
INTERRUPTING COOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
It was TOTALLY MY idea to go through the drive through. AND WHAT. And we made Bronwyn's night, too, which was awesome. Glad I could cheer up a friend. :)
So anyway, Kendra and I slept til about 4:30 in the afternoon, minus about 85 phone calls and the cat meowing.
The piercing places all closed early Sunday so I didn't get my snakebites. Didn't get them Tuesday either.
I will soon, though, I think.
I'm nervous as shit about having two holes punched through my lip.
--------------------------------
Ok. So here's how all the driving of late started and has proceeded to become this HUGE fun thing:
Kendra, Julie and I got the car and started driving around on Sunday cos we had to take laundry to Kendra's dorm. I did the driving cos we all know how much Kris LOVES teh driving. I went up a one-way street, the wrong way. Totally awesome.
Then we went to Tim Horton's cos Kendra had never been in a drive-through Tim Horton's. Then we went to Jody's house and got Jody and it became a foursome. We drove up the Citadel, through Blockbuster and to Bedford, to Julie's house for her cell phone charger. Then we drove back to Halifax and Jill got in the backseat and we picked up Chuckie and Meagan at McDonald's. Julie chilled in the front seat, in Kendra's crotch which was funny as balls. We took Jill out to Bedford and then came back to Halifax and dropped off Chuckie and Jody. Then it became me, Meagan, Kendra and Julie. We are the psycho driving foursome. We drove all over Halifax Sunday night, doing donuts in the rotary at 3:30 in the morning and also in random cul de sacs.
We got pulled over at 5:30 in the morning cos apparently some people were running through backyards and they wanted to see if it was us. We eventually got away from those cops with no issue.
--------------------------------
On Monday night I went to Sackville to stay at Julie's mom's house with her in preparation for Tuesday's big move and to set up a router for wireless internet so that Julie could get the internet in her room.
We slept in her big new squishy airbed and that was fun.
--------------------------------
Ok. Tuesday. Well. Let's see. We got up early. At the U-Haul place by 8:30. The god damned truck wouldn't start. Didn't get out of there til 9:15. Drove to Julie's house and moved all her shit in the truck. Drove to Sackville where we took a like.. 3 hour break cos we suck. And loaded the U-Haul with stuff from her mom's place.
Got lost in Burnside for like an hour.
Got to the storage place and moved all the shit from the U-Haul into it.
Got lost in Ackerley.
Were late to return the U-Haul and told to keep it all night at no extra charge, probably cos of all the trouble we had that morning. Drove to Julie's mom's place. Tried to nap but got woken up. Julie's mom then spooned me in Julie's bed as I spooned Julie and Julie cuddled with her sister. It was hot. We were like.. Awesome.
Took the U-Haul back after filling it with gas and then going back to add more to make it 1/4 tank.
Headed to the city with Julie's mom driving. She dropped us off at Starbucks. We got in Kendra's car with Meagan and I drove again.
I stopped home to feed the cat and the Hedgehog and found out that I had been desperately needed at work that day and was supposed to go in if I couldn't find a replacement for my shift. Can you say "In shit?"
We picked up Kite and ended up near Smiley's provincial park or whatever the shit it is as I kareemed past people on the highway while screaming "HOW DARE YOU PASS ME, BITCH!!!!!!!!!" Finally turned around and drove through small roads to take Kendra home and the rest of us headed to Peggy's Cove.
We got to Peggy's Cove at about 2 in the morning. It was fucking beautiful. Absolutely stunning. There was a full moon shining off all the rocks, tons of stars and awesome waves. I was totally excited to show Julie something so beautiful as she'd never been to Peggy's Cove before and at night is the perfect time to go. It was cold as tits though. We climbed the rocks for a while and stared at the water in awe before getting back into the car and driving back towards Halifax.
Sometime on the way to Halifax, I drove the car through a HUGE plume of smoke in the road, immediately filling the car with the smell of burning wood. The only other one to notice was Kite and I asked him if I should turn around and he said yes so I did. Meagan and Julie woke up and asked what was going on and I told them. We drove through some creepy back roads and Kite went to explore them but we found nothing. I did, however, run over some crazy bump in the road and temporarily fix Kendra's normal horn.
Dropped Kite off at like 4 and went looking for gas. Got followed by a cop for like 20 blocks and then he pulled us over. I was in the front and Julie and Meagan were in the back. He told me he thought I was swerving. I wasn't. I was driving better than he was. Registration and insurance? I emptied the glove compartment. NOTHING! I called Kendra, frantic and found out she had it as the cops hasseled Julie and Meagan. Julie got PISSED AS HELL. I got a ticket for $1,250.00 for driving without registration and insurance.
Dropped off Meagan and then Julie and I went back to my place.
--------------------------------
On Wednesday, Julie and I woke up and I remembered at 2:30 that I had an exam.. at 2:30. I drove like a maniac to the school and Kendra met up with Julie there so they could take the car and go get food and go to the bank. I finished my exam quickly and then found out I was going to have another at 4. AWESOME. Kendra and Julie went out to Bedford to clean out the rest of Julie's apartment to get the damage deposit and to go to U-Haul. (I HOPE they went to U-Haul).
I finished my 4PM exam and went into the library to see how much trouble I was in. I found out I was one step away from being fired and the only reason why they didn't fire me is because I'm desperate to have this job. I couldn't talk cos I was nearly bawling my eyes out. I felt like a fool. Sue referred to me as having a big heart and that made me want to cry even more. She really cares about me and doesn't want to see me fuck over myself and lose my job.
I finally got out before crying and waited for Julie and Kendra til about 5:30 when they pulled up with Meagan and re-arranged so that I could drive (naturally). We went to the police station and got rid of the ticket. That cost me $10. Awesome. Then we picked up Kite and headed to the Oxford theater to watch Pan's Labyrinth. Let me tell you RIGHT NOW, that movie is FUCKED UP!!!!!!!
Kendra and I dropped Kite off while Meagan and Julie went to Wendy's.
We picked up my fellow hobob leader, Katie and drove around to.. a few places in the middle of nowhere, like over this crazy old bridge that you have to position your tires on two long blocks of wood to cross without falling THROUGH the bridge.. it was AWESOME.
After we dropped Katie off, we got pulled over by MicMac (third time in four days) and the cops laughed at the fact that on the car was written "I am gay. Have a nice day. =) ). It was awesome.
Eventually drove to Sackville and dropped Julie off. Then tried not to crash in the crazy random blizzard. Then dropped off Meagan and Kendra and I drove around for about an hour.
Got home at 6AM and slept for an hour and a half.
--------------------------------
Yesterday I got my right eyebrow pierced and Floyd got her eyebrow pierced in the same place. We are now eyebrow-piercing buddies. It felt so good to get a new piercing. I can't wait to get my snakebites. I'm definitely going to Utility and having Christine do them for me.
She gave me a lollipop for being a good kid. ^_^
Then I slept all day.
Then I went to the bar. That was fuuuuuuuuuuuuun. Best night at the bar in MONTHS. Only SECOND night at the bar in MONTHS lol.
