Holy Suckish New Year!
Wow... I have to say this was probably one of the worst New Years ever lol.
First off... I was supposed to go to a New Year's party my friend invited me to... It was at her grandma's house though and I'd never been there before. Anyway I got ready and what not... got all dressed up, and then looked up the directions on the internet. Hah.. well my mom honestly didn't want to drive me anywhere at 7;30 at night (because of all the drunk lunatics driving around) but agreed to anyways because she wasn't doing anything.. I don't have my license yet, and anyway I'd probably be far too paranoid that I'd get into some horrific car accident to drive there my self. The directions said it was about 27 minutes away. But, it was out in the middle of nowhere >.< *cough* the side of town where there's no street lights, an abundance of conveinent stores, and you feel like you've been driving FOREVER.
Well, me and my mom ended up driving for well past forty minutes, got lost, missed the streets we were supposed to turn on because it was so dark and there were NO damn street lights anywhere, had people on our bumper for a majority of the time, watched several people run stop signs, and dodged a few discarded empty beer boxes in the road all while being paranoid that some crazy person was going to crash into us. LOL
We ended up turning around and going home. After all of that I really didn't even feel like going to a party anymore =A=
When we finally got home over an hour later my mom realized she had forgotten her phone. So, if she had gotten stranded/lost trying to find her way home, she wouldn't have been able to call anybody.
So I guess it was a good thing that we never actually got to the house.
Well after that I ended up chilling out, taking a long shower, and promising myself that I would never go anywhere late at night on New Years Eve ever again. >.<
I did read the ending to the Christmas event strips which made everything significantly better lol.
When midnight rolled around me and my mom poured some of that sparkling grape juice crap (because my mom doesn't drink.. ever) and watched the count down on tv. After that we both planned to go to sleep. Lo and behold, only a few minutes after midnight my mom runs into an old friend in the kitchen whom I had encountered twice before a few weeks earlier. When I say a friend, I mean a nasty cockroach palmetto bug thing that's scary as hell. DX
When I call them friends they seem less intimidating. I name them too for that same reason. I named that dastardly creature Robespierre. For good reason too. Every time I encountered him it was like the bloody Reign of Terror lol. Now that I think about it maybe I should have named it Billy or something since names seem to define people sometimes OTL.
He escaped down the drain in the sink AGAIN... evil thing. Last time when it happened my mom poured a bunch of chemicals down the sink and turned the garbage disposal on several times the next morning. She did the same thing again.. but god knows if that creepy thing will come back from the drain again ;A;
Well.. They do say bad things come in threes so maybe we won't see him again *shivers*
ANYWAY! I hope everyone else had a Happy New Year! ^-^
Love, Dayna
