Punta cana day 3
4:18pm - ok I’m not gonna lie. I’m drunk right now. Not completely out of my mind drunk though…otherwise I wouldn’t be able to type any of this. Just enough that I know what I’m thinking but it’s difficult to walk and type and stuff. I still have my thoughts though, so that’s what I’m gonna give you. Got to sleep in again this morning, then went to the pool. Ate some fruit and swam around a bit. The other pool was filled so the one wasn’t crowded as much. There was a giant fountain that shot up and seemed really cool, but all the little kids were around it and I couldn’t really enjoy it. Tried to sign up for paddle boats but they were taken up for the week, so instead we paid extra money to do 10 minutes of the banana floats tomorrow. Everything was cool for a while, and then my dad drank a little too much. He started acting ridiculous and I hate it. This is the reason I’ll always be a responsible drinker…because he is such a bad one. We had to drag him back to the steps so he wouldn’t get another drink. Hell, he challenged me to a contest to see who could hold their breath longer, and if he won he’d get another drink. I took that challenge, and lost…but he didn’t know that. I took three or four breaths and he had no idea….being drunk and all. Finally we got him out of the pool and laid him down…and I had enough at this point so I came back to the room. I was ready to make this post an hour ago but it was locked in the suitcase and I had no idea where the key was. Anyway, I took a shower and played some sudoku…and that’s when the alcohol really started to set in. Right now I’m really dizzy, but I can still collect my thoughts. They all came back, told me that they got a transexual to kiss my dad while he was asleep and took a picture. That is really funny. He deserves that crap. I can’t wait to see that picture. There were no towels when I tried to take my shower, but we just got some in time for the rest of my family. We’ll see what happens tonight…hopefully it’s better than this afternoon.
10:12 - Tonight was not a winning night for me. We went to the town area and they had a lot of games and stuff. They had tequila and stuff but I was still recovering from this afternoon, so I had to pass. There was a dart game, a ring toss game, and a “put the ball through a hole” game. My dad won at the ring toss and the darts, my sister won at ring toss. My mom won at darts. I won nothing. Then there was a mariachi band and they were a little entertaining. Then the games stopped and they called everyone over to the stage where the mariachis were playing. This is when the craziest thing happened. They got two chickens to cock-fight. It was absolutely insane. They put protectors over their big claw and they just pecked the hell out of each other. Then they stopped them before things got really ugly…it was meant as a demonstration. They gave out little pieces of paper with numbers then did a raffle. My dad won this wooden mask. Then I got the first souvenir of the trip…a necklace for Hoa. I still have to get for Lauren and a random person on tabit (I’ll explain that one later). Sorry everyone else…you either didn’t ask for a gift or I don’t remember you asking for one. I’m not made of money… Then I decided to try my hand at blackjack again; broke even. Now I gotta get some rest. Waking up early for a half hour massage. The only thing that scares me about that is that I have sun burn on my shoulders. If that pain doesn’t go away by tomorrow, I’m fucked. Also tomorrow I’m gonna pay for some time on the internet. So until then…I really don’t know what to say after “until then”.
