((Don't mind my awful switching from present to past-tense... o_o;;; Oh, and this is gonna be long, grab some popcorn))
Well, yesterday started out as a normal Friday. Went to school, played ping pong in gym, had chocolate muffins for lunch, nothin too unusual. Then at 3 o'clock I'm waiting outside and I get up as I see my dad's car pulling up to the school. "What the crap did you do?!?!" I scream as I check out the car. Total wreck. The whole right-front corner was messed up, dented and scratched wicked bad, the headlight was out and the side-view mirror was missing. X_X He hit a deer, there was even a little chunk of fur wedged in behind the headlight. XD
So we managed to get home in one piece and then my whole family piled in the minivan and went to Syracuse. It's about a two and half hour drive, and we didn't leave till 4 o'clock. X.X; We went straight to Chuck E. Cheese's ((for those who don't know, it's basically a pizzeria/arcade for kids)) because it was my little brother, Andrew's, 7th birthday. We ate our pizza and got token to play games, and after about 45 minutes a waitress and Chuck E. Cheese come over with an ice cream sandwich with a birthday candle. He was out playing games, so I ran to go get him. I find him at the opposite end of the arcade and grab him by the arm and I'm all "Hurry, they've got ice cream sandwiches for you!"
We get back to our table and mom is like "Umm... Beth... why'd you grab some other kid?" and holy crap... I'd grabbed the wrong kid. X____X;;;;; He was the same size as Andrew and wearing the same color, long-sleeved shirt, but he was blonde and Andrew is red-headed. Everyone bursts out luaghing, even the guy in the Chuck E. Cheese suit. o.o; I took the poor blonde kid back to the game he was playing and went back in search of Andrew. Eventually I found him in the crawling tunnel thingy with all the slides and stuff, and he went to eat his cake. After awhile we head for the mall to buy presents for Andrew, but it was already 9:20 by the time we got there and alot of stores were closed. The Disney Store was closing in a few minutes, so we practically ran there, and made them stay open a few minutes late so Andrew could get some remote controlled cars with Buzz Lightyear and the Incredibles and stuff. I forced my family to go to Borders so I could buy a manga (which I had a coupon for >3) and then we went home.
12:15 AM- 10 miles from home. We're a few miles outside of town and we get a flat tire. X.X Using my cell phone, we called the repair shop, but they didn't have a driver available. We tried other places, but to no avail. Fortunately my mom has a friend, Ellen, from our Church who lives just a little ways down the road, so mom went to knock on her door and ask for a ride. Poor Ellen, who is about 70 yr old, was terrified- someone was knocking on her door at midnight, and she lives just down the road from a boarding school for 'troubled' teenagers. So she called the cops on us. XDDD
We explained everything and finally we worked everything out, but we didn't get home till around 1:30 am. X__X And that is my story.
