I have had a headache that won’t stop since Wednesday night. I toughed it out through Karate and even actually won a fight! I was so excited about it I ended up pounding the floor and saying emphatically “I was on TOP!” cause to my Sensei…if you are on bottom when the fight ends…you lost. LOL
The poll, I see, is doing well. It looks like he’s stuck with “the boy” until he picks his own Scene name. I’ve been waiting to tell the story of going out to visit him at the mall until we decided on a name but since that could be next year (short in coming though it is) I’m giving in and just telling ya.
I went to stay with Tat last weekend. She wasn’t feeling real well and she had a lot of work to do so she told me that it would be ok if I took her car and went shopping. The boy supposedly works 40 mins away from her house so I thought I’d run up and say hello after I got a few things. So I looked it up on the computer and got directions to the town and hopped in the car. Unfortunately, I got directions for the town in NJ, not PA. So I called his Pagan mommy and asked her how to get from where I was to where he was and she explained. It was still fairly early so I thought…ok well as long as Tat doesn’t mind…I’ll just do it. I was suppose to pick up a gift for her mom at Vickies so I headed in that direction. Amusingly enough I ended up going right past the town Adam lives in on my way to see the boy.
Another hour and change later (it’s firmly like 5pm now and I left at 3) and I am almost there. But there is construction and I have to follow a detour. I spend at least an hour actually trying to get someplace that’s 15 mins away. I didn’t start to panic and almost cry until I passed the beginning of the detour again. But I end up there and I’m happily though slightly stressed at the Mall. And his fricken gate is down!! Kimi was NOT haven’ it. He calls right as I’m basically yelling “get your ass out here!” and I find him down the way taking a cig. break.
It’s all going well. I’m hungry now cause I’ve been so stressed and I spend some time with him. I decide I need to go get Tat’s mom’s present and find out….Vickies is closed cause of a fire in the dressing room a few weeks ago. UG!!!!! Very uncool.
Tat gives me good natured shit and I get back on the road to come home via BETTER directions provided by the boy and I’m thinking what else could possibly go wrong. Except for maybe Tat’s car totally over heating on the side of the turnpike and not having any coolant to speak of to solve the issue. Oh..and let’s not forget the battery in my old phone has died. The boy had tried to make me take his and I wouldn’t so now I’m on the side of the road, without a phone, and an overheated car. A nice couple stopped and helped me get things back going but by the time I got home Tat was starting to worry. She was happy I was ok and happy that her car didn’t blow up. The coolant cap hadn’t even been tightened down so Tat let the shop she’d just had it taken to she wasn’t happy.
Anyway…let me tell you…it was an adventure.
