So I went home for the long weekend....what a weekend it was. haha.

Ok so I got home Friday night and my mom tells me that our house has no electricity due to the intense fricken winds we were having, and that she wasn't sure how long it was going to take to get home since our usual routes were all blocked by fallen trees. So we begin the hour long drive home from the bus station and thankfully got to Limerick without any problems. Seeing as how we had no power at the house, we decided to go out to eat at the pub in our town and socialize for a bit. That was generally a good time, moms friends are all pretty nice and funny. We had to leave around 10 though because, being that I'm under 21, I wasn't allowed in after that time. So home we go to get the woodstove going, light some oil lanterns and chill out till dad got home. All-in-all, a fairly quiet night, despite the intense wind storm and cold outside.

Saturday, we still had no electricity, so dad started the generator to keep the basement freezer running and the refridgerator going. With nothing better to do, we all headed down to the pub again where we hung out for a few hours, while mom and dad got a little bit hammered and decided that we were going to go home and play scrabble and get wasted. Hahah this is why I love my parents. They're absolutely ridiculous. So home we go where mom made the awesome dinner number 1 of the weekend and we got stoned and buzzed. Just as we were about to sit down and play some scrabble (where dirty words got you double points Ha!), one of my parents friends calls us and tells us to come hang out at her place since she had electricity and we could all get shmammered at her house playing scrabble and uno. Oh god. So dad gets fairly ridiculous and starts making up words and spelling things really wrong which was pretty hilarious (sidenote: he's actually healing really well from the accident, and his hair is finally starting to grow back in which makes him look pretty funny). Around 1 we headed home to go to bed, still no power, though we knew it would be coming soon.

Sunday, still no power in the morning and there's a weird problem with the generator (thankfully dad fixed it). That afternoon we finally got power back so mom and I took off to the mall to go shopping. Basically, I'm pretty pumped because I have a new stereo for the Pontiac, and that's pretty sweet, speakers will be coming soon. I saw her for the first time in 2 months, but it finally didn't hurt to see her or think of her. That was a nice change.

Monday I just basically hung around some more before I left for the bus station. Now I'm back and I'm eating some pretty tasty redneck pasta. :) This was a wicked good weekend. But now I'm just looking forward to a 4 day week and a weekend where I'm not leaving the state and I'm going to get shmammered and be able to sleep in my own bed.
