| Ok! Trip Entry Time!!! (so prepare yourselves for REALLY LONG ENTRY!!.. maybe)
Ok, so i was gunna go to Cali, with Kevin to get my peircing license.... but nope, things changed. So Kevin nor I asked to have this weekend off, but he did mention to my boss, that i might need this weekend off, but he said might, but he gave it off to me anyhow...So i was like what the hell, ill go to WA, to visit my friends. Now i am regretting that desicion...
Thursday
Ok, so thursday morning, the last day of work for Dan! He needs to wake up at atleast, the bare minimum, 10:00, cause he has to be at work ready to go, at 10:55, and he likes to eat, so he likes to leave the house thirty minutes before he is scheduled to work. So he sets his alarm for 9:00 cause he decides he will try to fit some other things inthat morning... like going to buy a cd burner that he needs so this trip wont be boring!
So guess what time I wake up....
OK I wont make you guess, i woke up at 10:45.... I wouldnt be happy leaving then....so I jump into the shower (even tho the time is terrible, i still manage to go slow cause i am tired as hell, i had stayed up watching a movie -slap- bad dan bad dan) and take a fast one, and get my contacts in and put work clothes on, and head out the door. As I am walking out to my car, i manage to think i should call, so i wont get in trouble. I call and i get kevin and i am like hey, its me dan, i am gunna be late, i like just woke up, hes like oh ok, dont worry dude. I get there like 5 minutes late, and no one says anything.. 
So i get my tattooing book from Kevin and he and i talked, like we do when we are working. Hes a pretty cool dude. I got to look over the book a few times, but wow its jammed packed full of info, for how small it is, and i think alot of it will have to be more hands on, before the book makes any impact, yanno?
Well then i go to get my CD burner after work. Its Burning up outside. But the way i plan it, if i park close enough, i wont just be standing out side for long right? Wrong, cause i am a dumbass. I go in, look at the cd burners, and then i head out after i buy one, for $90.00, and i go to my car, planning to drive away, and go home! nope, aint gunna happen. Why? my keys are locked in my car on the passenger seat. Well i am standing there, Sweat litterally dripping down my legs, so i am like hey, i shouldt be here for long, other wise ill roast. So i call my aunt, and tell her i locked my keys in my car, and so she says she can be right over. About 2 minutes later as i am about to head in to the shade, this really nice, semi over weight Half mexican decides that he wants to help me, so after a few trys we decide that the best way to unlock my car, is to use a long pointy thing  to get my keys, and then i have power over my car. Long story short (ok well sorta short) i got back in my car, due to his niceness. I call my aunt back... she haddent even left yet.. Good thing he helped me out! 
Ok, so after putting the cdburner in my computer, and buring a cd. I start Packing. Seriously, I pack like a girl. I spend way too much time, packing shit i dont need. Like i packed 7 pairs of something...i was only planning on being there for 3-4 days, and i was gunna do laundry... so i packed way too much.
The trip there was univentful... Till chris called.  Hes like hey i work in seattle, and he tells me the exit he gets off at. Really long story short, we never met up, and i was lost in seattle for like 1 and a half hours.. Oh well, if i am in that area again i wont be lost again 
I get To my parents house, after i called and explained to my parents where i was. And they were ripping me apart, (mostly my dad). Ok i have been lazy. I havent told all you people what i plan do to as of now. I plan to get my peircing lisence, so i can stick holes in you, and then i will be working on my tattooing apprentiship, cause that takes two years. And then i will go to bartending college........ My parents hate the first two, alot, and bartending they kinda dont like. So i sat there while being like told alot of crap. Long story short, i need to live by my self before i get my first peircing and/or tattoo, other wise i'll hear a lot of crap i dont want to.
So i go to sleep.... oh wait me, go to sleep? I brought my computer up to WA, and i took it down stairs, after getting my mom to help me unload out of my car. so in like 6 (or so) trips i have all my stuff downstairs. I hook up my computer, and i had just planned on listening to music as i went to sleep... but no, a movie temped me, so i watched the hot chick for the seccond time, and then listened to music. So i ended up going to bed at like 4 or so.
Friday
lol, i wake up at 2 o'clock or so. I shower, and then take my computer upstairs, so i can have internet. I have a laptop, but its crap compaired to my new computer.. wait no its just crap all over. But it took me 4 trips, I have to take the computer, the monitor, the speakers, and all the wires.
So after i play for a bit on my computer with my brother, I head over to Nathans house, which is really close to my house.. well like 2 miles. As i am heading up there, i see some guys walking on the road, but i dont pay much attention. I go to nathans house (its still hot) and knock, I wait like 2 minutes, knocking alot, and then i head back to my house. On the way back i look at those guys walking along, and i go oh! its Nate! and so i swerve in to this kinda empty parking lot they just passed and nathan sees me and hops in and is like go go go! and so i floor it and we get away from nates friends. Hehe then i ask nate, if we should turn around and pick em up, and hes like yeah, so we take them to their house, and then we go to nates. We kinda have a bbq there, and hang out for a bit. Then Nate and i go to Chris's place, and hang out with him before he has to go to work (he works graveyard shift). Then we are like hey lets follow chris to work. Man that was hard, His new car (well new for him ) has more acceleration than my crap car. but i managed to keep up with him, there was enough traffic and i was keeping up with him. Then chris tells me out to get out from where his work is ( i haddent gotten that far before) and we get out of seattle! I took Nate home, and then went home, Read some of my tattoing book and went to bed.
Saturday
So, Tyler and aaron are out camping! and we need to go join them, chris and i do, So i told chris on friday that he could come sleep at my house so we could go from there, when he was ready. I let him sleep in, but he got mad at me for doing so, lol. We didnt leave till like 2? i think. but we had errands and stuff to do... so really we didnt leave till 3:30 or 4. We had to go out on 405, and then get on to I-90 and then we had to go a long ways, over the pass and all, and the camp site was near Cle Elum.
Well my car is old . Its an '89 red ford tempo. About to break down. Well it did.. Kinda. When we were near exit 17 i think, on I-90 my car decided i liked rodeos or something. It would buck really badly, i could coast, and all, but i couldnt engage it in to a gear (manual all the way). so i pull over when it got really bad, and i called chris and told him, so he got off and came back to get me. I called my dad, he blamed my bad driving, and then a guy came,not a cop, not a towtruck, but the guy that marks the cars on the side of the road for the cops. He helps me move my car downthe hill, out of the construction zone, and more off the road, and then he marks my car, and i am left to figure out what to do. Longer story, semi short, we were gunna push it through town, and hten leave it at a gas station till monday when i could see what was wrong, but when chris and i jogged backwards up the freeway to my car, and we got in it, it worked! so yeah! no problems. We go slow kinda the rest of the way, till the end, and we are kinda racing. (it was like a 70 mph zone and chris told me we were hitting 105 some times, i cant tell cause my speedometer only goes to 82 or so )
Camping was interesting, ill try to give it to you quick like. We hanged out with some drunk high people, chris made out with one of them, lol. Chris and i slept in my car, we got woke up at 9 by a ranger, telling us we couldnt have three cars in our campsite, and we had to move. And thats about it.
We left from camping at like 1:30 or so. Chris and I were hauling! Aaron and tyler (in one car) were not going so fast, so chris and i would go really fast for a while, then slow down to let Tyler and Aaron catch up. Well that was all going fine and dandy till we pass this cop, doing 65 or 70 in a 70, and he had pulled over a semi, and then theres another cop car like 300 yards in front of that one, and he pulls out as we pass him and we are like oh crap.. he pulls us over, and later i learn that when he had chris get out, he told him he wsa going to jail.. but he didnt go.... He gave chris the breathalizer test, and made him follow his pen with his eyes.. but all he did was ask me why my lisence wasnt from WA. I got a ticket for 158 for going 90 in a 70 and chris got his for going 95 in a 70 totaling to 280 somehting. Chris's was higher cause the cop got him for expired tabs or somehting... but they werent expired...
Aaron and tyler had passed us and pulled off to wait for us, we stoped had lunch, and gas, and then continued to head back. We got to tylers place, hanged out there for a while, and we went to a park, and even tho its parking was full, there werent that many people there. We left there, cause we were bored, and we went to my place, and then we went to go see a movie, We saw the borne supremacy. I liked it exept for the camera angles, it made me dizzy and wasnt that easy to focus on.
We headed to our cars, and We were figuring who wsa going with who, cause tyler was gimped (he hurt him self wrestling with chris) and chris had to go to work, and tyler lived kinda far out of our ways, and aarons car was at my place and nate didnt have a ride. so tyler went home with chris, and chris took him home, but as they were leaving, i hear "Hey! we know you!" and I look over at this car parked next to mine. its like a brown or dark red color, and there were three girls in it. I didnt recognize the one who yelled it who was sitting in the passenger seat, but her face did ring a bell. I kinda thought i knew who the person in the back seat was, but I couldnt be sure, and i was trying to tell who the person in the drivers seat was, but I just couldnt see her that well, I was at a bad angle. And while I am sitting there, trying to peice this togeather, they are freaking out cause they think they have the wrong people, and they think I am gunna go murder them (seriously they told me that ) I walk over to my the drivers side of their car, and I am like hey! cause I recognize it as Kacie. I had told her I was comming up, but she was busy this weekend. So I haddent planed on seeing her. All of us talk for about 4 minutes or so, and then they say they are gunna head out, and chris has to head to work, and I really had to pee!
So i haddent had enough movies for that day, cause Aaron, Nate and I were talking, and some how cars came up and they were like yeah like that mini that the movie the italian job made famous, and iam like yeah i like that movie, have you guys seen it? and they are like no, and i am like ok, i am paying, lets go get it. and so we go get that, and watch that. Aaron heads home and i take nate home.
Monday
I hung out with Chris, and i was gunna go home, but my mom talked me in to going eairler tuesday morning, to avoid traffic....
Tuesday
ok so.. i dont wake up till like 10 or so, and then i get ready, and i didnt get fully ready and out of there till 12, and then i headed over to nathans, where this really hot chic in the car infront of me flicked me off, so i flicked her back off with out looking, playing it all cool, lol. and i talked to nathan and chris, and then started my long treck to Oregon. On the way i planned on stoping at my dads store and picking up some clothes. I call my good friend Melissa to tell her sorry that i had car trouble and i didnt get to see her, and she is like screw that, meet me at Alderwood Mall, and i am like ok, sounds good, so i go hang out with her and her bf Spencer, and we had a good time, talking about all sorts of stuff. So i have to leave them, but i spent a good hour or two with them, so i am leaving them at around 2 or so. I get to my dads store, get some shirts, i really wanted shorts but they were all sold out cause its summer and all. So i go next door to this discount store... wrong move number 1. I am looking for snacks, incase i get hungry when driving, (which never happens i just get thirsty) i get some M&Ms (they are cheap, like 25 cents a pack) and i get a bag of assorted cookies and a nother thing of cookies, and then i See, one of my favorite drinks, Sparkeling cider, and i Especially like Martenellies (ok i dont now how to spell it tho.. ) So there is Sparkleing Apple-cranberry cider, so i had to get it. It was cheap too, i think 1 dollar a bottle, (hella cheap for that stuff). So i get it and the other stuff, get it in my car, have all the snacks and clothes on my passenger seat and all the bottles on the passenger side floor. I open one with my key (i need to invest in a bottle opener cause i like that stuff alot and its always a pain in the ass to open) and i take a swig or two, and i put it back next to the others on the passenger side floor, but closest to me... wrong move number 2. now you think its gunna like shatter glass everywhere or something... but no,almost that bad, but not quite. So i am heading out of seattle, getting near the major downtown area and such, and its stop and go traffic. Its hot, my music is kinda loud (it always is, or its louder) and all of a sudden. POP!! the bottle that i had dranken a bit out of EXPLODED, (well the top came off) and cider went EVERY WHERE. All over me, some on my door even, some on my winsheild, some on my steering wheel even, and all over the floor, my gear shift and my E break. So i am like SHIT! and i go to grab it quickly... in stop and go traffic... big mistake number 3. I hit this lady in a white pick up, but only going like 5 miles an hour or less. we pulled over, there didnt look to be anydamage, so i gave her my name, my number and my lisence plate number, and that was that. (follow up, untill i start getting lots of calls from their insurnace saying i need to give them my insurnace info). i drive for a bit, then i go try to clean it up. Pain in the ass. No more cider for me in a car, unless i have passangers to help me out, or i have a good place to put it. so i get home, and unpack all my stuff.. and i have decided this was the last trip for while for me! Car breaking down, speeding ticket, accident....well ill have to make a trip when i go to court about the ticket.... |
