This weekend and carnies, what do they have in common? They're short....

Hey,

Despite the weekend being short (as I worked on Friday, dead asleep too) it was decent...

-Thursday, we went to the Puyallup fair...When on the rides, John screamed like a 7 year old suburbanite girl watching Faces of Death, a high pitched wail that made the rest of us laugh our collective asses off...He almost puked a few times too, which we all thought was hilarious...I ate soooo much food...I even made this really large girl exclaim "Daaaamn!" when I was double-fisting two ears of Corn on the Cob...I mean hell, they had too much corn and set me and Kope up with a sweet deal (2.75 for 4 ears of roasted corn goodness...could have got more if we had more hands...), so we HAD to take andvantage of that...Another point of interest was when we were in line for the El Nino ride...We were right in the front of the line, waiting for current load's ride to stop...Kope stated that it'd be hilarious if a shoe came off someone and hit me in the head, when I feel something thump me in the stomach...I look down, and a half-opened knife was laying at my feet...WHAT THE FUCK?! I picked up the knife, gave it to the attendant, then we all asked who's it was when they got off the ride...The owner said it wasn't his, but his friends ratted him out...Now really, if you are going to go on an amusement ride, at least keep your knife in a secure spot...I mean hell, if that thing got fully extended, I'd have a helluva stab wound in my gut...I wanted to grab that 14 yr. old and fucking backbreak him...Being he was 14 yrs. old, I looked at him and told him he was lucky I didn't kick the fuck outta him, and we walked back to his friends quickly...I'd never fight a 14 yr. old, that's just retarded, but damn, stupidity like that should be beat out of you, know what I mean? Outside of the almost-stab wound, I had a great fucking time...
Afterwards, we all went to Kope's and hung out...I was going to leave at about 3 in the morning, as I had to work in 4 hours (3 and a half hours of sleep is bare minimum to deal with the dumbfucks at work) but when we got out to my car, someone (whoever got out of the car last) locked my keys in my car...Yes, I should have had them, but I never lock my car at Kope's house...Anyways to make a long and almost hopelessly futile story short, Kope and I had to go to Walgreens at 4 in the morning to get wire hangers...We got back, and proceeded to jimmy my car lock open...I finally got home at about 5:30 in the morning, got maybe a hour of sleep, and went to work...

-Friday, I was dead tired at work, so I went home at 1pm...Kope woke me up at 5:30, so we could go look at vehicles...First place was Nissan, as I wanted to try out a Nissan Frontier...The one I wanted (and could afford) was used, so I test drove it, liked it, waited for Fred to catch up with us, then decided to shop around...We looked at a few places, then we came to Sound Mazda...Kope had said I should check out the new Mazda Hatchback car, so we did, and I really dug it...Test drove it, and dug it even more...So that night, got most of the talking done, and I decided I was gonna take that Red 4-door manual transmission Mazda 3 home...They were closing, so I had to find a co-signer and come back in the morning...I was still tired, so after that, I called it a night and went home...

-Saturday, at 9 am, I went and got Fred, then bought my new Car...After all the paperwork, the slimy manager (Good thing he wasn't the main salesman who helped me, that guy was cool as hell) tried to only give me 500.00 for my Focus (after a 3500.00 pay off)...I told him that was bullshit, I should get at least 2500.00 for my car....He came back with a better figure, and I signed to it...Now, I am proud owner of a Madza 3, complete with a Sunroof and a 6 Disc CD changer...I can also control the radio with the steering wheel, so that makes me happy...The interior is nice and spacious, and the dash lights up with a red background...IT EVEN HAS A KNIGHT RIDER LIGHT!!!! YEAAAAHHH!!! Anyways, I had to have Fred drive the car to my house, as I am not proficient in the ways of the manual transmission...I practiced at my house and got about 200 miles of driving experience throughout the day, so I'm not doing too bad now...Long as I can avoid downtown hills for the next 2 months or so, I should be fine...We did the usual Saturday night stuff, headed to Kope's and I took a nice long nap...Good damn times...

-Sunday, I didn't do much, just chilled, drove around a bit, and then came to work...So that concludes my weekend...Short, but decent...

I feel a road trip coming on...

Damn, it feels good to not be stuck with that piece of shit Ford Focus...8 times in the shop...EIGHT FUCKING TIMES!! And it was getting ready to head back, damn transmission...

Anyways, this coming week should be nice, I still might be moving out...So, more to come later...

Fuck Off: Greasy, Slimy Salesmen who try screw me over...
Awesome: My new car

Quote of the Day- "He made three mistakes. One, he believes in God. Two, he's a mormon. And three, He's going into the Marines."
-Kope, commenting on his sister's mormon friend's choice of the marines...

-If the quote of the day offends anyone, well...Fuck off, this is my journal... ; ) -
