It's The Choices That We Choose

family weekend sorta

2005-04-02 - 6:28 p.m.

Thursday night mike and I left for my moms. around 11pm. We got there around 1:30pm (i think). Not bad timing really. we watched part of pay it forward before we crashed out.

we woke up in the morning (having to sleep in seperate beds because my mom is crazy) after only getting at tops 6 hours of sleep. We played with my dogs. And then went and got breakfast with my mom. After that we had ping pong tournaments. it was really funny because while i took a shower mike and my mom played ping pong together, and she kicked his ass. haha. but, apparently, my mom likes him, so thats good.

After that. and a crazy walk with the dogs, we drove down the hill to get my stereo installed. we were a few mins late, but really, it didnt matter, because apparently, an appointment was never made for me and the guy set to do it, supposedly, was on vacation. awesome.

i was pretty mad, especially when i found out the guy who supposedly set up the appointment wasnt there. finally, after they were screwing me around for awhile i got ahold of the guy who most likely got the commission for selling me the car. he came to my rescue (sorta) and at least told the people i wasnt crazy and that they were supposed to take my radio out of my old car. except, he even tried to fuck me over. he was saying that the deal was only to take the radio out of the old car and just give it to me. seriously, why the fuck would i make that deal? i showed him the paperwork that clearly said that the deal was to swap the radio from the sentra to the corolla. and he still said that was the wrong deal.

so after basically an hour of being fucked around i called my step dad. my step dad called the guy and "talked to him." A few minutes after i knew the guy talked to my step dad he comes out and says ok we will install the stereo into the car. by this time it was 4:30pm on friday night, when the places closes at 5pm, and everyone was pissed at me. one lady even yelled at me, kinda indirectly, but really directly. whatever.

they cleaned the interior in the back, which was nice. it looks like new now, at least in the back, whatever. and now my old cd player is in my new car. woo hoo. it looks nice too. no one steal it, PLEASE!

lesson here: everyone at a car dealership tries to fuck with you as much as possible, when they do, call my step dad he will clear up anything.

while the car was getting fixed or whatever, mike and i at least got to watch some basketball in the customer lounge. so that was decent.

after it was done, we went and got bakers. it was funny, cuz i was attempting to go to the bank in san b though. the ghetto part, because thats the only part where i know where my bank is, and at the bank, a million and one people were there. and they were all fucking ghetto. mike even said, you were right about san bernardino being ghetto. heh. but we decided to leave, and try to pay for the meal with a visa or mike would use his cash. i realized though, that the reason that so many people were there was because it was the first of the month, and if all you people who never lived in the ghetto dont know what that means, it means it was welfare check time. yeah... thats san bernardino.

after bakers we went to my dad. he was as nuts as usual. afterwards, mike said i owed him big time, because he was THAT crazy. mike now sees exactly what i was talking about when i said he seems like he is either on speed, is manic or schizo. he completly agreed and had no idea how much of the truth i was telling. he couldnt get it off his mind how crazy he was until mayeb we made it back to san diego, which is where we went after an hour or more of my dad's craziness.

mike was trying to tell me to confront him about it, but then realized, i really cant, after i fully explained the situation. and he understood.

when we got back to san diego we went back to my place. drank some apple cider and he drank guiness (sp?) and played uno. i think i fell asleep to family guy, i dont remember because i was so tired :-)

today, we slept in until 12pm, which i havent done in FOREVER. it was nice. i had a headache though when i woke up for a good 3 hours. i took some motrin finally, which i never do, and drank some caffiene. that worked. we ate cinnamon rolls and watched garden state. then we walked around ocean beach for awhile. after that, we played more uno and watched that 70's show. now he is at work and tonight we might go out with his friend from out of town. who knows.

right now, i need to get my shit together though and write two papers by 11p.m. tonight. yeah...

bye bye.
