Exciting Life: Take One


Alright, I guess since it's Friday, wait...it's actually Saturday now....screw it. It's been two days, time to recap.

Thursday was a very big day for me. Spending a large part of the day aiding my currently wheelchair bound mother turned out to be about exactly as exciting as it sounds, but I have to rack up so "good son" points in the books somewhere.  Anyway. It was a typical Thursday in the summer for me, didn't have to work, it was a pleasant 74 degrees all day, and I sat in my room on the computer in my pajamas like a champ. 4 o'clock rolls around, and that's where the fun starts. After getting all clean and socially acceptable, I hop in the car with mum and we drive out to Moon, about 45 minutes North of where I live, and head to the Volkswagon dealer. That past Monday, Memorial Day, I spent the better part of three hours there negotiating the price of a brand-new 2012 VW Golf, my real, true first car that would be in my name, and be all mine to do with as I please. Let me tell you, the wait was worth it. It's smaller than my old ride (a '02 Ford Explorer), better mpgs, and a lot of fun to drive when you slam it down into sport and fly around the corners of the streets in my town. Pictures of it are forthcoming.

Then after picking it up, we came home and got some Chinese food, always a win.

I bummed around the house for a bit, played some games on my computer, nothing much exciting to be found. Around 10:30, I hop on Skype to talk to Rachel, some girl from college, she's alright I guess (check her out here ---> http://tinyurl.com/6v42vqa). She's really probably one of my best friends up there. We talked about random shit, life, relationships, how I am a sad depressing human being, stuff like that. It was actually pretty nice. And then, after a bit more computer gaming, I threw Warhorse into the ol' Blu-ray player and fell asleep. Let me tell you, explosions and horse noises led to some weird ass dreams...none of which I can remember. And now onto Friday.

Friday was pretty uneventful. Woke up late, as per usual. Derped around, did some chores, helped mom out, stuff like that. The Lowes guy showed up around 12:00 to drop off about 4 pallets of block. We are rebuilding our retaining wall this week...hooray. And then around 2:45, I am forced to drive my brother out to a Ford dealership in Bridgeville (about a half hour both ways) so he could pick up his car. I was rather panicked, because we hit traffic, and did not want to be late for work, because today I was asking for a raise. I got it by the way, .50, hooray me. Work was busy all night. The restaurant I work at is literally 5 steps from my high school, and tonight was graduation. We got slammed all night, until about 10:30, and them it became a frantic scramble to get everything clean and stocked so I could go home on time at midnight. I got out late, but only by like 10 minutes, and without all the stuff my fellow pizza guy Rob did before he left, I would have been even worse. I would like to congratulate the South Park Class of 2012, but those of you who came to the Clubhouse can eat a bag of dicks. And now, I sit at my computer typing this. Fun day right? Not really. Well atleast I'm off until Monday, but that's another story all together. Alright, seeya.
