(no subject)
So....I told some of you today that I was going into Dayton tonight to have Thai food because it was this girl's Chelsea's birthday.
heh.
So there were three cars of us: Chelsea, boyfriend, and some other kid in front, Galen, the Anns, and Gabe in the middle and Me taking up the rear holding myself, Anina, Eva, Sam and Katie.
Our reservations were at eight. We had planned to leave at 6:45--it takes about 45 minutes to get to Dayton so we were allowing extra time.
Well everyone needed gas so we actually didn't leave until around 7:15..hehe yay for Earlham time.
And Chelsea was the only one who knew where the hell she was going. Which was a MISTAKE and will NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN. haha
Okay first of all, Chelsea? She drives like a fucking maniac!! I was in the rear which meant I was going to slowest and at one point I WAS PUSHING 100! I made several people call to tell them to slow down but Chelsea didn't have her cell on (of course!) so it was basically just my car and the car in front of us bitching back and forth about Chelsea.
Anyway at about 7:45 we are apparently close and we get off at the airport exit?? We stop at a gas station to get gas. We are not sure where SHE was for the thirty minutes in which we were filling up our tanks but WHATEVER XD.
So by the end of that it is now eight. I get left behind at a stop light somewhere along the way and finally find Galen's car but Chelsea's car is no where to be seen. We pull over. TWENTY MINUTES LATER chelsea's car shows up. They apparently missed their turn not once! not twice! but THREE TIMES!
Anyways we go back on the road speeding like crazy trying to keep up with Chelsea---at some point we end up in downtown Dayton after going on like...600 different interstates or something and they realize that they are very very lost. They stop at a gas station for directions...at this point its...probably sometime around 9:00..
Somewhere during this time my car went COMPLETELY INSANE. We kept singing the funny farm song(they're going to take me away haha..) and all sorts of things...I was cursing up a storm and laughing maniacally. And all of us were saying things like "findahappyplacefindahappyplace" IT WAS COMPLETE MADNESS!
Yet we continue to drive around in circles for the next 45 minutes...my car finally decides it is high time for a mutiny. We actually kept screaming things like "OFF THE PLANK YE SCURVY DOGS!" but Chelsea and company refused to stop looking for the thai place(despite being over an hour late at this point) and just find somewhere to eat.
We finally get Galen's car to mutiny with us and we take off and leave Chelsea and company...at about 9:45..
Galen's car proceeds to lead us to a Steak and Shake and tells us that they are going to pick up food and head back. Cue me losing my temper.
NO! I said. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AROUND FOR THREE FUCKING HOURS I AM SITTING DOWN SOMEWHERE TO EAT!
My car agrees with me and we then finally mutiny from Galen and company and go across the street to a....Red Lobster. haha yes.
We actually had a really nice time and the food was good its just kind of hilarious we ended up there of all places.
The trip back was much shorter and we ended up getting in around midnight.
But the best thing EVER that could only be said in the car full of crazed college students was said tonight by my friend Sam: "GEEZ..there driving is kind of...interesting...It reminds me of Kafka!" Which led me to nearly wreck the car because I was laughing so hard. Yes I am a dork.
heh.
