Gees, so this weekend was thrilling. Well at least Saturday was. My mother made me get up off the precious couch to go take them to Camerillo for our friends 25th anniversary. It was fun. They redid their backyard (put in a gianormous pool, a big garden and huge BBQ) and I am so jealous. I threatened to push my father into the pool (he is afraid of water and cannot swim) because he refuses to build us one. Oh I want a pool right now. I want to leap right in and do a huge cannonball. Oh how I long for a pool and some grass, but that is a whole other story. Oh so back to Saturday. My mother got a little too alcohol happy and would not stop dancing. When the police came to have them turn down the music, she and another lady grabbed the male officer and got him to start dancing. Oh that is my mother right there. Nor would she stop telling me that "That guy is SOO cute!". "Yes Ma, relax." "But he's soo cuute! Too bad I am married. Did I tell you he asked me if I was married? HE DID! Did I ever tell you about George...." She wouldn't stop! Then I had to drive them home around 1230AM. Fun. I had no idea how to get home and I have my mother practically passed out on my right. I am trying to get directions out of her, then my parents start arguing whether the freeway we have to get on is North or South. Gees, so finally we are on our way, and everyone is quiet and at peace. Driving happily along trying to stay awake when all of a sudden all the power goes out of my car, it is absolutely dead. So I surprise everyone, wake up my sleeping mother and coast off the freeway and end up in a parking lot on Ventura blvd. in Tarzana around 115. Oh, it was super. Haha, so I call and wake up my brother, and he comes and meets us at 230ish. Sort of fixes the car (he had to bypass the burst starter cylinoid and start the car manually) and we are off. Almost home, Hughie decides he cannot take it any longer and dies as we pull into a nearby Chevron station in Rosemead. Now we call AAA and have Hughie towed home. Poor Hugh.
I should mention that I have been sick All weekend and that last night was awful. I barely slept b/c I was coughing my head off the entire night. Blegh, kill me now. Haha, plus I woke up with one eye all gross and red. I think my nose was using my eye as a means of draining the crap from my nose. HAHA, I know You all wanted to know that, hehe. Well have to register now.
