The trip
Friday... I get down there and end up at Alan's parents house, where all the people were drinking. I, on the other hand, decided to stay sober. I was too tired and had drove forever. All I wanted to do was go to sleep. But the guys wanted to hang out long enough to eat (Mom was cooking food) which gave them way more time to drink. By the time the food was done, Alan and his step-dad were trashed and they were singing every sixties song that came on the radio. I wanted to go but they just continued to drink until about eleven. I had to get up and drive to the doctor at 4 the next morning. By the time I got into bed it was midnight, by the time I got to sleep it was like two a.m. and then I was back up at three in the morning to drive for an hour and a half. Which brings us to Saturday... Saturday...I get up at four a.m. and get everything loaded in the car to go to the doctor. On the way to the doctor (I didn't drive, ol boy did) the car starts shakin real bad because of the tire. Now at this point, had I been driving, I would have slowed down. But not this guy. He continues to go sixty so the tire gets worse. By the time we turn off the highway, the tire has blown ten miles from where we needed to be. Thank God we got a ride until about five miles outside of where we were suppose to be. Then we only had to walk that far. D and EXH were already there so they go with us to take the tire off and get a new one. Finally with all that taken care of, we get the car back to the doctor's office. But as we are leaving there we realize the other tire needs to be fixed. This causes us to get a motel in Columbia and get another new tire. SO the rest of the night we stayed there but it was already late in the afternoon so it was no big deal. Sunday... now this would usually be the day that I would be heading home, but because it was a holiday weekend I was staying another day. I drove back to W'boro and hung out with everyone. It wasn't too bad of a day except the fact that I had to sit at D's and watch them play X-box until I thought I was gonna lose it. I got to see Jay and hang with her for a little while, even if it meant hangin with EXH so it turned out pretty good. Monday... we went to the festival. While we were there I got to get Sai (he had been with my mom) and then we decided to take the kids to the park. They had a great time. On the way back to W'boro the car started to overheat. I knew, yet again, to stop driving the car. He stops, puts water in it, and keeps goin. Well by the time we make it back the car dies and will not start back up again. Ya know what this means? The car I just got is now stuck on the side of the road and I can not figure out how to get it to work. That is still where it is. I had to get B&L to come get us and leave my car there. They couldn't bring us back until the next day which would mean Sai would miss a day of school. It was just a mess. Which brings us to me being home and the mess here... |
