[power is mine!]

Aug 17, 2004 19:09

i, my friends, have been restored with the electricity. for the rest of the nite i may just hang out with a light switch and flick it on and off, and watch it work.

but for now, i must share my tales [which are going to be long, prepare yourselves] of having no school due to a natural disaster. and now we don't have school until next monday. hells yes.



this would be shannon, my sister, and myself on friday nite watching the news and waiting for the hurricane to hit. it was really crazy because that day me and shannon hung out and were like yeah, right on, no school. and we went to the 7-11 and got junk food and stuff for the nite and my parents were hanging out drinking beers, not preparing at all for this friggin hurricane coming. weatherman told us charley turned into a category four and was heading straight for daytona beach. neat. and everyone's not caring-age shows now, but on with the story. so then friday nite, as stated before, we watched the news with helmets on, now preparing for the worst. shannon didn't take her helmet off all nite and i loved it. we sat on the porch for a long time with my parents watching the storm come in and it was funny and scary all in one. then something fell out of a tree [something like a branch] and we all jumped and my dad goes [in a serious manner] that was nothing, just a squirrel getting knocked out. and it was funnier if you were there. then when it started getting wild, me, shannon, my sister and c-dog went and layed down in my mom's walk-in closet for added protection from the raging winds. then the lights went out and i gasped and said it's the real deal! then right after i said that choice phrase they came right back on, then it happened again and i said that again, and on they went, and follow that trend for about six times, but then the lights went out for good. and we had to live by candles and flashlights. then the next morning we went outside to find that even though the hurricane was just a category one, the world had essentially ended.
then on saturday we had no power to speak of, which meant no air conditioning. g r o s s. we just layed around all day and roasted marshmallows over candles and made smores in the dark with canned heat which were disgusting and i never want to lay eyes on another smore ever again.
then sunday was fun. me and shannon woke up and went on a quest for food and gas. we ended up in south daytona because every other gas station was either destroyed or powerless. then later jawshoewha came over to shannon's house and home and we sat around for a while and i kept saying riddle me this and showing josh my socks, and he kept burping in my face, and yes. then we started going insane and went to barnes and noble to hang out with chris, dan and ray. me and shannon looked at wild magazines and laughed a lot. then the store closed and we tried to go see a movie but everything was closed and powerless, so we sat in a parking lot and decided to go to chris's house, but not before josh got his fingers smashed in the window. then at chris's i wore a wild hat and listened to dan attempt to sing a taking back sunday song, and everyone played yahtzee! whilst i got in trouble for absolutely nothing as usual on the phone by my loving mom. i went outside and won half the battle, and when i went back in we watched funny movies that chris and dan made, such as awesome box. those kids are wild.
then on monday me, shannon, matt and doug played and that too was a humorous event. we drove around for forty-five minutes looking for an open theater to watch napoleon dynamite, but to no avail. plus matt had no idea where he was going. we danced to karma chameleon and sang and it was a very fun drive. we went out to dinner and never stopped laughing.
1. i cleaned your shorts and now you have an erection. that echoed in a room full of people.
2. i ordered a dr. pibb. and sure, that was funny, but then the only person who could ruin a joke but then make it funnier would be shannon. hey, i ordered a dr. pibb, this is a mr. pibb! ohmygod.
3. hey! see that waiter over there? that's the pitcher josh guy.
then a minute later.
wait. nevermind. that looks nothing like the guy and we're in the wrong ruby tuesday's.
4. matt cracks his head on the overhanging light.
then we watched fast times at PIEDMONT high, and we did not like it. only select parts.
then we returned to shannon's house where there was a toddler at hand, and we kept trying to make him say 'dynamite', and shannon showed him a picture of me with short hair and said, 'who is this prince?' it was the funniest. hey, shane. riddle me this...dynamite. thumbs up.
what an endless weekend. and it continues.
<3...



we ready.



this is why we did not have power for seven years.

p.s. flap your wings by nelly is the greatest song ever. and it is by far the best one to dance to in an obscene manner. i love nelly, i'll say it once, and i'll say it again.
