alright, since meg was nice enough to do hers, i'll do mine. here is a little recap of my vacation. it started last saturday with mom being a bitch. oddly enough, it ended this morning with mom being a bitch :) now that i really think of the comparisons in leaving and coming home, i realize that the gods didnt' really want us to go. they wouldn't let us leave munster, and they blocked us from getting to our place in florida. you see, as we left, we realized we forgot something and turned around a few blocks and went home to get it and start on our journey again. well the munster police invaded and blocked off most of the streets to where we needed to go because of some running thing the highschool team was doing. grrr. we make our retarded trip to florida and get within blocks of high point world resort on I192 and cops are blocking where we need to go due to brushfires. the way everyone was redirected took us an hour and a half out of our way. between brushfires, hurricanes, detours, and mom bein an ass, we were pretty pissed when we arrived :)
Our first official day shaped up a little better....oh wait, no it didn't. we quickly discovered that you can't smoke in most public places anymore in georgia or florida. i half expected my family to turn the car around. oh and thank god mom brought her own vodka cuz on sunday's you can't drink down south either. however, you can drive a motorized grocery cart into wine bottles in a store and break a bunch and not get charged :) someone please shoot everyone except for me. it was just a matter of time really. i still don't know if it was dude's fault or moms. it was her driving, but his idea for her to get the thing. she's an idiot and just tears around on those motorized grocery carts at full speed with no regard to anyone or anything around her. there was an endcap full of 30 wine bottles and she went "around them" as she called it, *ya right* and i cringed just knowing what was going to happen. all you could hear was shattering glass, mom charging through, and everyone's jaw hitting the floor :)
After the state of Florida announced our arrival to what was known as hurricane Alberto, he downgraded himself to a tropical storm because he figured enough damage had already been done and the ppl had been through enough lol. We decided to head to a place called Old Town down the road from our place. The fires were out b/c of the rain so we got through easily. Sadly for me, there were puddles up to my ankles and I was wearing sandals >=( I bought Dew at the general store and a kewl green bracelet at Black Market Minerals. The next day we went to the Florida Mall cuz it was still raining a bit and we didn't wanna get wet in Disney. I got a top at Macy's and mom got earrings and something else. I was surprized to learn that the Disney store sucks in that mall. It's been downsized to a storage closet practically. No good stuff either. I went to the M&Ms store and got to meet 3 of the 5 characters. I met Red, Green, and BLUE!!! They were very nice fuzzy people :)
Wednesday we made it to Disney! We went to Epcot!!! It's the best fucking place on earth! I wore my I Wanna Play With Clay shirt and I got a reaction from everyone lol. "oh you are an artist?" "no worse than that, I am an american idol fan" "ohh, *that* clay" They were always disappointed lol. I got to see Figment and I went on the new ride Soarin' all by myself, which, for me, was a very stupid move lol. I dont' like heights, but dammit, I had a fast pass lol. In Canada, I saw OFF KILTER!!! They have a great new Cd called Kick It! I can't wait forbfft and Meg to hear it. We went back to Old Town for dinner. We ate at what used to be Damon's, but is now a sports bar and grill. Since it was late and dark in there and my parents weren't allowed to smoke inside, the waiter suggested we choose an outdoor table. Fine, I looked like a little kid and the waiter gave me a children's menu. Hell yeah, I had mac and cheese and mt dew. Then a bug flew into the Dew and I caused a scene and got another dew lol. A few minor details. Mom is an idiot...have I mentioned that? She got her fingers stuck in the car window trying to litter on the way to Epcot. Also, there is a hell of a lot of new construction going on all over 192. Next time I make it down there, I will not know how the hell to get anywhere.
On Thurs we shopped at Downtown Disney. We did the normal side, not the good side lol. I went in all my toyshops though. I got some stuff for friends, though not nearly as much as I would have liked, I got myself a dvd and some Stitch pins :)
On Friday, hurricane Falgier invaded the Magic Kingdom. The day started off in perfect Falgier fashion - we got into the MK parking lot and parked, Melissa was excited about monorails and then saw one with a pretty green stripe, ooo. She looked up at the green striped monorail and *dramatic music* THERE WAS A STITCH ON THE FIRST CAR so Melissa screamed as if she was being kidnapped and Dude had a heart attack and screamed at Melissa for exsisting! Then Dude opened up the back of the car to get out the wheelchair and it fell out and attacked Dude for yelling at Melissa. Dude had to limp up the ramp to the ferry lol. Let that be a lesson to you :) Yeah, so we hadn't even officially reached the happiest place on earth and we were all just one big fucking ray of sunshine lol. If only Dude had a machine gun.... When we were on Main Street we saw Donald Duck giving out autographs and I wanted so badly for Dude to get in line with me and let me take a pic of him and Donald but he would have nothing to do with it >=P Nothing much exciting happened. I got a picture with a statue of Pleakly from Stitch and Tigger gave me a high five as he was bouncing by.
Sat. was uneventful. Got ice cream, stayed home, did laundry, swam, got sun on my nose and shoulders but nowhere else really. You wouldn't really guess I had been to florida. Gave Dude a new wallet for Dude's Day. He like it. I even filled it with his crap from his other wallet.
Yesterday morning we left. As we came in the state of Florida it rained, as we left the state of Florida, it was raining. Wow, another compairison lol. Dude was thinkin' IHOP for breakfast. Yeah, so were all the other dad's in FL. Sorry Dude, no food for you. Ride home was alright. Except for the drinking, fighting, smoking and bitching we all got along well. TN is the only smart state in the south lol. Once it got dark out, I went to bed and slept till morning. We arrived at 9:30 Monday morning and I went to work 3-10p lol. Today I'm off, but I have a billion ideas of what to do in my head.
Oooo dude awake and mad. Bye
Melissa
