Adventure

Posted by Carrion - December 22nd, 2011


Ive generally been depressed lately. Work is good but i don't get enough hours to stay stable. Christmas is already here and i barely just noticed like yesterday. My grandma is in the hospital, she was out for like a day but then got pneumonia, being in and out so much in the past month is wearing on her and im pretty sure shes not going to ever get back to normal. And being home just stresses me out between my sisters and mom.

I was just about ready to snap but then today happened.

The other night i had just about enough of my sisters and mom. I was feeling sick, felt like shit...just wasnt happening. So i said fuck this, and drove to my dad's. Which led to one of the best days ive ever had.

First i went into my dads and got to visit with him which is always nice, and i stayed the night. Got to chat with my gurl Virginia, and catch up with some friends online and such. But today is when the good stuff happened.

Although i had a odd dream about a old acquaintance last night that was rather haunting.

Woke up,and had about 4 cups of coffee. I went to the mall, and got my paycheck (had a event with my mom there who i didnt even plan on running into but i got over it)

Then i got some starbucks. (thats another coffee)
And while i was in the drive thru i though "hell im already close by, ill visit my grandparents." so i went and saw them. My grandpa was actually surprisingly excited to see me which was nice. Its hard to catch that guy being sincere. And i had some more coffee. (thats one more)

Then i went back to my dads and from there we went to my little brother's winter program which i didnt even know about. It was adorable, i love seeing that kid grow up but it also breaks my heart to see him go off and change the way he does.

So after that we went and had some Chinese food which was nice.

Then i went to teazers by myself to have some tea, and get some pixel art in before i go home. This was at 9:00 at night, and this is where my adventure begun. (oh and thats a tea, can count as coffee since its also caffeine)

So when i was at teazers i saw my friend Sonia online on facebook. I messaged her and found out she was in town! (shes going to school in Maine which is way too far away). And she says shes at starbucks in riverpark which wasn't far away from where i was. So i was like "woah ill come over and say hi!"
And in attempt to save time i jumped on the freeway not thinking about holiday traffic. So i get held up like a whole hour and almost got ran off the ramp by some idiot driver. And when i got to the starbucks she was gone already. So i got on my computer to see if she was still nearby and had to get a coffee to use the wifi (another coffee)

And i cant get ahold of her anyways. By this time its 11:00 at night and starbucks closed and i had to leave. So being pissed at traffic and idiot drivers i give up and go to dennys planning on staying there a while to use the wifi.

So i walk in, and hear my name...Sonia was there! And i didnt even know! I was so happy, so i sat down and visited with her, her mom, sister and a friend Reanne who i went to highschool with. I chatted with them for a while and they decided to go retire since it was late.

I decide to stay at dennys and use the wifi like i originally planned.

I chatted with the girl who was serving me a little bit, she was cool and it turns out she's a artist too and i gave her my DA name so she should be stopping by here to check it out.

Oh and i had about 4 more cups of coffee....and had her take the cup away from me because i eventually began to feel my own blood flow.

So at about 3:00 in the morning i was like "ima go home and junk" so i wrap things up at dennys and go out in the parking lot. And my parking space was blocked by a diesel that was like....just chillin there. I knock on the window and a guy's head pops up and he moves. (lol he was straight up sleeping in it with the motor on.)

So i get gas, and head out back home.

And as i hit the country roads it get reeeeeaaally foggy. Like this is some of the thickest fog ive been in and it was my first time driving in fog.

So as i come up to a cross street yet another diesel lies in my path, so i pull to the side and get out to see what this dude was doing sitting in the middle of the fog. A big mexican dude comes out and goes "Hey bro, they fucked up tuning my headlights and i dont know these streets. I cant see shit man." So i ask whats wrong and he says "well im lost and cant find my way to the 99, can you guide me there?". His truck had a really long load, and there was no way he could turn around and simply go back the way i knew. I personally dont know the roads that well and in this fog we were driving by the yellow lines on the road. And ive only been driving for 2 months now. But as i always say, Adventure Doesn't Wait. Seems exciting escorting a massive truck through thick fog.

Also the roads out here are known to be kinda derp. Due to the fact most of the drivers are immigrants that dont know the laws and stuff so theres lots of cases where they dont notice stop signs and junk.

But redardless of what my gut was telling me, CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.

I got him to the free way finally after a while. And then went home. Some smaller stuff happened today thats just as good but not interesting enough to mention.

You guys are going to possibly be seeing my on more things, im working with other people alot lately.

Today really turned things around for me, and im actually happy i was pushed to go to my dads house.

Also ive counted 12 cups of coffee/tea.
Its 5:15 and this n***a aint even tired.

I actually read all that. You had waaaay too much coffee though. I'm surprised you're still alive!

As a representative of the TL;DR-party, I would like to say this text is too damn long.

I know someone who went to the hospital after drinking 14 cups of coffee because his heart was beating so rapidly that it wasn't pumping blood to the brain anymore.

I hope your grandma got better.

It's a huge cliche, but it's true. Gotta enjoy the little things. Honestly, any day when I'm seeing people or meeting people (and usually eating with them) is a good day for me. Internet ain't got shit on face-to-face human interaction. Oh and fuck routine. Fuuuuuuuuck it.
