[Busy Weekend is Busy.]
Well like
Ashmen is a fucking horrible driver
She drove past the zoo entrance when we got there and she was like "Whjere's the zoo?!" and we told her "Behind us" so she suddenly just swerved over like..to park I guess?..and just HITS the curb. And completely ruins the tire so we are stranded out there.
Nobody would help us, not even park rangers or police who are supposed to help with that stuff and I have seen them do it before. But they would blow us off and be like "That's not my job" and leave.
ONLY. ASIAN PEOPLE. ASKED IF WE NEEDED HELP.
They were the only people who would come up all concerned and ask if we needed help and all that
And we were like "Only the asians are nice out here. Everyone else is like "lolol look at those commoners with their shitty car while we drive around in our fancy sports cars""
So like..we had called John's dad and had to give him directions out there but he refused to actually pull over and take directions so by time we could pull some up on Chris' phone
he'd be all "Oh I'm not there anymore, I'm at ___"
So we are out there for like 4 hours, and like..the only jack we had was completely rusted and a useless piece of shit. It was literally exploding to pieces everytime we turned it and eventually the car's weight bent it completely, thus why we had John's dad bring a new jack
And so when he finally gets out there we get it up and start changing the tire when the bolts just snap off completely and make it impossible to put them back on. Turns out her car didn't even have the right bolts, and whoever put them on just jammed them on to make them stay. Thus them snapping like so.
So Chris has to be at work at Teavana at this point, so John's dad takes him and we try to find a auto shop as you know. But pretty much everything was closed because it's Sunday. :|
And so we go to walmart and they have the right bolts but not tires so they are all "If you can get a tire we'll change it for you. So for even more hours we drive around for a goddamn tire
and we eventually, after so so long, find a place with the right tire. And they had signs saying "OPEN SUNDAYS" "ALL TIRES ON SALE, EVERY SIZE ON SALE!" so we are very happy, and it pretty much is all seeming perfect...when after a half hour and they are about to put it in the car and all her dad calls and is all "No it's a ripoff don't get it we'll get you a used one tomorrow or something so just don't get it" :|
So she doesn't. We wasted our time.
And the rest of the day was spent in the galleria from 3-something to like...8.
Okay, I'll skip past that now to the way back
Okay. So. Ashmen is pretty much half asleep driving/swerving/speeding on a spare tire with two bolts like I told you on bumpy highways and streets and fucking saint louis at night,
So somehow Chris and John manage to sleep every now and then and the whole ride I am just sitting there with a literal ಠ_ಠ look.
Because I had to (tmi part) piss so. fucking. bad.
And she was speeding and there were so many bumps
And I had been like "Well it's only a half hour to granite, I can hold it" buuuuut
Then she's all "lolol gotta go to caseyville to give my mom $20 to borrow" so it's longer. And Ashmen can't find the goddamn exit. So it's turning into ಥ_ಥ and finally I'm all "IT'S BEEN A FUCKING HOUR STOP SOMEWHERE OR I'M GONNA DO SOMETHING YOU DON'T WANT IN YOUR CAR"
And she is like "Why didn't you say anything sooner I would have stopped?" and both I and John say that I did
So finally after like 10 or so minutes from that and me seriously having the most uncomfortable ride in my entire life, we get to a flying J's. So I am just like everyone get the fuck outta my way I need that bathroom NOW and I get in there, and go, and am so relieved..and then realize there's no toilet paper in my stall.
This is the second time it happened today.
So I get up, and rush to another stall
and it has none either
So the third stall has some, and I had been cussing up a storm in the bathroom because I was alone in there anyhow
And we leave, and she STILL can't find this exit so it's like "Hey mom let's just meet in Collinsville." and I'm like "Why the fuck didn't you do this after the third time you couldn't find it? >:CCCCC"
But I don't actually say it
because I'm back to having a deathstare on the arrow showing her speed.
and just...we get there and they all talk for like 10 minutes about tires and Chris and I are just watching a cat adventure across the giant parking lot
And we finally leave and they are like "Matt wants to know what we are doing now" and I just said to take me home..
OTL
and there you have it..
Otherwise, homecoming was wonderful. I DANCED. I NEVER DANCE.
And Friday was spent seeing Tat and Heather again for the first time in a long while, and I enjoyed it very much. C:
AND IT PUT IN A RESUME AT GAME BUSTERS.
