Ha so I wrapped up my work yesterday (I won't be seeing the British guys anymore :( cause they've finished their project contract), grabbed some coffee and hit the road...to Fresno. It was kind of on a whim. I had asked some friends from home but didn't hear of anything really going on in SLO-town anyways, so why not? Traffic was a bitch for part of the way since it was a one or two lane highway during some parts. But other than that, the drive was gorgeous, the weather was good, and I could be one of those people singing to music in the car because nobody else could hear me (although I'm sure I looked silly but who cares). I made a stop along the way and was rather challenged by a...peacock. Yea, that's right...a peacock. He thought it would be cool to run in front of my car on this street, and when I hit the breaks, he'd saunter off to the side, only to run in front of my car again when I pressed the gas pedal. He probably thinks he's being bold stopping a car like that, but for the most part, I'm thinking that this bird has no brains and is about to be roadkill haha. Also, I can't really remember where I stopped exactly, but this Chevron gas station had the most fancy and elaborate restrooms I've ever seen. It's nicer than most restaurants. Random fact in case you're ever driving on the 152.
I got to Fresno and met up with Erik and Tyler to watch Spiderman 3 in IMAX. They're my best friends so I wanted to see them, and it was Ebrah's birthday afterall. :) They were around the area because of rafting at the river this weekend. Anyways, as it turns out, the 10:15 showing was sold out, so I had a ticket for the 1am showing and was hoping that the line would be hectic enough that the ticket-taker wouldn't notice. Haha get this, she even looked at my ticket separately than Erik and Tylers, and I got in no problem. Sweet deal. Not sure what would have happened if they'd kicked me out and told me to come back at 1am. I probably would have just headed home lol.
We grabbed our seats, hung out, and watched the movie, which I give like 10 thumbs up. I'd make a horrible movie critic because I like most movies I see lol. I tend to like them, or like them better. Maybe it's just me, but Peter Parker reminds me of Ebrah a lot of times lol. And as for MJ, I can relate to most of the problems she had with her boys haha. Anyways, the movie was intense, hilarious, and well worth watching again.
After the movie, we drove around Fresno looking for places open at 1am. We found an open store and picked up some beer cases and apple pie...mmm. Then kicked it back in the move theater parking lot waiting for Nato to get there. Thinking of the long drives ahead of us, a nap was decided on so we all grabbed our stuff and piled into Sue's truck bed telling stories and making jokes, singing songs and being all snuggled in our gear. It must have looked real funny to some people who might have walked or drove by. All you can really see are the top of moving blankets in the back of a truck bed lol.
When Nato arrived, we all talked for a bit, did some transferring of more gear, and took off our separate ways. They went back to the river, and I headed for SLO-town. Around 4:30am I was starting to nod off so I pulled over and slept until 6:30am, headed home and arrived at 8:30am. I took a shower and hit the sheets I was so dead lol.
Since then, I've said hi to the roommates, who were asking me questions and telling jokes that strangely...I had no feelings about. I didn't think the jokes were funny, and I was getting tired of talking, and it's like my brain couldn't think of what to say. My head is buzzing right now, and I'm sure that it's because I didn't sleep last night lol. I probably couldn't feel any emotion right now if I wanted to lol. We're thinking CPK at 1:30pm, but Jeff might not go and it won't be as fun without you buddy. But for now, another nap. :)
This first week...never a single dull moment.
