relaxing weekend?
You know the old adage, "a good friend will bail you out of jail, while a true friend is sitting next to you saying 'damn that was fun'"
This is how I know that Chaos and I are true friends:
-our idea of a weekend getaway was disappearing into the NC mountains to stay in a little trailer, plant flowers and "landscape" her property, hike the vertical ridge that surrounds her property, and watch supernatural on my laptop when it got dark.
-she didn't freak out when my little truck decided that the mountains were too much and tried to commit suicide and almost homicide. Driving mountain roads with a truck (a stick shift no less) that keeps loosing complete power knocking out the power steering can be just a bit nerve racking.
-she kept me entertained and distracted with a beer and coffee while they attempted to diagnosis my truck's problem at the dealership
-I found it completely hilarious when she announced as we drove onto her NC property in the rental car that she forgot the trailer key
-neither of us found it unusual that as we waited for the locksmith (since our attempts failed) to take out our frustration on the waist high weeds. She was nice enough to give me the industrial weed wacker while she used an incredibly sharp pair or hedge trimmers
-the uberfun task of "flushing" the black tank of the trailer. Complete with running the outside hose into the trailer toilet to make the task go faster.
-the fact I can make fun of her new "word" uber.
-planting bulbs with a pickaxe and our feet
-hiking in the rain and not screaming or running we we found a large rat snake on the trail.
-running down a hill in the rain just because we can
-talking nonstop about everything from work, veterinary medicine, stargate, supernatural, stocks, writing stories, and family
I can't wait till next year
