this week is suckin pretty bad. i have the worst luck. i fianlly get out of work today after ten hours of hell and theres a frigin lake underneath my car. i thought it was oil and freaked cuz it was brown. but tom came outside and looked at it and we discovered it antifreeze or something. so the beast, shes put up for a while. i am so pissed. and tomorrow is the fourth. and i am working. and i found out we have to come in extra early for a stupid meeting. blah. what next?
yesterday brought me to portland with josh barret ("Barret's Complete Guide to Better Living in Portland" gotta pick that shit up in the travel section of your nearest book store)So it ended up being the craziest night ever. we visited the meyers and went to the museum and walked around the old port. we kept scoping out the most perfect picture oportunities but neither of us brought a camera. josh tripped a total of approximately 27 times while we were down there. i couldnt stop laughing cuz every few minutes he'd trip again and get this frustrated look on his face. he also walked into a sidewalk sign on congress st. and who the hell put that there? cruel. but thats just the bizarre begining....
then we entered DUM DUM DUM....the twilight zone!!!! it was so creepy!we drove around and around and around. we were lost and every time we stopped for directions we would just get more lost. we kept passing the same places over and over. every street lead into eachother but none seemed to lead us out! and all josh kept saying was " this is the part when..." and all i wanted was an egg roll. finally we decided we werent gonna find food so we got onto the turnpike to go home. but for some reason i didnt take the washington ave exit like i usually do and we ended up lost again so we were forced to turn around and got back to portland. oh my god it was so scarey.Then i get pulled over by a cop! What the??!! She tells me i went through two sets of blinking red lights! huh? josh and i are so confused cuz i had been stopping at every frigin blinking red light all over town and had even said "man i wish i didnt have to stop at all these red lights" This is getting soooo wierd. the cop looks pissed and she asks me if ive been drinking and i am so afraid cuz josh cant help but giggle like crazy because we are both loosing it. she takes my lisence back to her car and comes back after a minute saying im all set and to have a safe night. what??? ok.....
finally we found a chinese place called Lang's Express (the McDonalds of chinese food maybe?) and they are open untill 2 in the morning which is great cuz it is now 1 in the morning and i get my eggroll and we finally get home. phew. exhausting.
i couldnt believe it. and after all that action i am stuck here in this house on saturday night with a broken car and i miss jeremy and he hasnt called me and my knee hurts and i am going to go wallow in it all for about 20 minutes until i figure something out.
