On the Chattanooga Choo Choo*
So I am in Tennessee right now and it is pretty damn sweet. We woke up this morning ungodly early because we were going to go 'rafting' with Anna's ex/now good friend Peyton, but he didnt wake up in time to get us a raft so now we are just lounging at her mom's house. I think that we might later go to this place called "Blue Hole" and swim or something. So Tennessee is pretty amazing and I am fully impressed. Here is the trip up to this point:
Sunday: I was on the train from New York to CT When I hear someone getting on the train at New Haven on the phone talking about going to Tennessee which I thought was mighty strange... The person ended up being Sam who apparently had to transfer trains at New Haven to get to Hartford so that was cool... We took a cab to the airport there and then waiting for our sweet 1 of 2 planes. It came and then we waited for the 2nd which was delayed but finally we arrived in Nashville at about 10pm. Anna came to pick us up in her sweet sweet 1983 Mercedes with a la-cuka-racha (sp?) horn which was played as she drove through the terminal to pick us up with her friend Ashley. It was very loud/embarrassing hahaa. Then we drove to the Nooga, which we got to at about midnight, and went to Megan's hotel room because she had just arrived from Texas with her dad (they were driving all of her stuff to TN so that her and Anna could take everything in one Uhaul.. they are roommates) So then we drove to this place called WAFFLE HOUSE which is like my dream come true. It is kind of like Poor Pierres except everywhere and open 24 hours.. how sweet is that... We wanted to do something Tennessee like but nothing was really going on so Megan called her dad and asked if we could have some of his pot to smoke at Anna's house, which we did and was some really sweet pot. After lots of confusing stories and laughter we went to sleep.
Monday: We awoke and then showered and blah blah blah and went to Megan's hotel room again because we had to go with her to return the Uhaul thing. So after we did that (at some creepy ass place called Uncle Bob's) we went back to the hotel to pile the rest of her stuff into Anna's car and watched some tv. Then randomly Megan's dad was like so do you guys wanna smoke a bowl. So that was pretty sweet/weird but cool. Then it was like 4 or 5 or something and we went somewhere. I think maybe we just walked around the nooga. Then we went to a rib place with Megan and Anna's fathers and then got some beer and headed to Ashley's house way up some mountain and watched some lame/scary movies until really late.
Tuesday: We woke up at Ashley's and then drove back to Anna's so that we could get changed to go to this place called "Suck Creek" to go swimming/jumping amoung some rocks and what not.. So we did that with Ashley and her boyfriend Evan and these two other kids Mike and Derrick I think. After that we went to Waffle House and the lady told Ashley she need to put pants on haha because she was wearing her bathing suit bottoms, some health hazzard apparently. Then we were going to go camping so we went and got a bunch of stuff for that and headed up to the mountain. I had to wear Evan's sandals because flip flops were not ok (Evan may or may not have killed someone and has been shot before in the arm so I can say that I HAVE walked a mile in a killers shoes hahaahaaa creepy) So we had to lug all of our crap through this trail for about 45 minutes. For the first half Sam and Evan carried the giant cooler of beer and then me and Megan volunteered (the Dream Team) to carry it the rest of the way. BIG MISTAKE. My arm is still recovering. We thought it smart to lighten the load as we walked by consuming large amounts of the beer on the way. I was pretty drunk by the time that we even got to the camping place, which was just a clearing and a huge rock overhang. That was sweet. We lit a fire and did camping stuff. I later went to sleep at like 4 on a rock because Megan was drunk and refused to move over.

Wednesday: We all woke up at like 10 and had some poptarts and crap. Then we went back to Anna's and chilled there for a while. We decided to have a quiet night inside and do nothing since we had done something every night previously. We were on our way to get a movie when her friend Brian T called us and convinced is to go to some party on a mountain and pick him up and go to his house and chill or something. So we did and then we ended up smoking again with his hookah which was cooler than the usual. I felt really weird and like I couldnt move so I just passed out in my chair and woke up the next morning really really really sore.
Thursday: We didnt really do very much since we had to drive to Nashville at 330 to take Sam to the airport. We didnt get home until 930 somehow and then decided to go to sleep early so we could raft today. But now we cant.
Tonight there is a toga party at the moontower which is going to be sweet/crazy/amazing. Then Saturday I dont really know what we are doing and then Sunday I am going home for the longest day of Travel EVER. I leave here at 3something and wont get to Penn Station until 11 ahhhh. Definately taking a cab home from that. Blah. I really cannot wait to walk into my apartment though... It will be really nice.
Other than that I love Tennessee and the Waffle House !!
