• Thursday was a long day. For starters, I found at work that long story short, my hours are going to be changing. Right now, I work 9:15am-6pm. But, starting Wednesday, I will be starting work at 8:fucking15 in the morning! That is going to suck such much donkey ass. As many of you know, I’m a late night person. Sure, I will be getting up an hour earlier, but I know I won’t be going to bed or falling alseep an hour early.

  Thursday night was Cara’s grandma’s wake. It was to end at 8 in the pm, as you read previously, I get off work at 6. I work in Aurora and the wake was in Stickney. That is quite a drive, especially at that time of night, however, to be honest, traffic was not all that bad. In fact, I make it in the area right about 7. I drove write the hell past the damn funeral home, which I thought would not be a problem. Turns out, every damn street in that area is a one way fucking street! It wasn’t long before I was lost. And to make matters even worse, for some reason, the speed limit was only 20 miles per hour. I know its a residential area, but usually its 25 in a residential area. Geez, listen to be, bitching about 5 miles an hour, like it actually makes a fucking difference. Anywho, I wandered around for 15 minutes before finding the damn funeral home again by pure luck. I parked and went in. They had already started a service, so I didn’t walk right into that since I was late. Instead, I walked around the funeral home, taking some of the caskets for a test die and making faces on some of the dead bodies. Soon, the lady that was talking about Cara’s grandma was done talking and I nervously walked in. Cara saw me. Quickly, I flipped her the finger and mooned everybody else. Cara then walked up to me and said she was glad to see me and gave me a long hug. I can not confirm this, but I think she might jerked me off in the process. I could also see that it wasn’t only me that was nervous about this reunion. After saying hi to her family, we walked over and looked at some pictures of her grandparents. I told her all about how Dori had found Jesus and how it made me uncomfortable since I’m an atheist. Anywho, I can go on about the whole time I was there, but to be honest, it was quite uneventful. She also told me that she would be back out here next weekend for brother’s wedding. We plan to get together then, although I’m still not sure it will happen.

  Friday after work I had a date with Matlock. Seriously. The dude’s name was Garrett Matlock. I planned to pick him up about 7ish. He lives in Oswego, which is about a 20 minute drive from where I work. That is a 20 minute drive for a person who knows how to follow directions, and as the previous paragraph can attest, I am clearly not one of those people. Soon, I found myself lost, driving down dark country roads with nobody around. After officially being late (I HATE HATE HATE being late to anything) I called him and asked for him to help me become un-lost. I think I wound up getting there just before 7:30. He was outside waiting for me. We decided to eat at Giordano’s (for those of you not from the area, its only one of the best pizza places on the planet). Now, as you may know, I am quite the talker, but this guy actually talks more than me. The one thing we never were was without conversation, the whole night. Anywho, Giordano’s had about a 25 minute wait. We wound up being served by a hot, giant waiter. This guy seemed to be about 6’6, but he was built and had a nice face. I have been going to Giordano’s for years and just refuse to try anything besides their pizza. I’m sure everything else is good too, but I just love their pizza so much, that I can’t get something else.

  After dinner, we decided to see a movie. Now, I hate the cliched date of dinner and a movie, but there really wasn’t much else for us to do, what with it being negative a million outside. We got to the theater with about 45 minutes to spare before the movie started. So, we paid the manager $50 to let us have sex in the popcorn machine. 60 seconds later, we were back talking about all sorts of shit. The movie we wound up seeing was Smokin Aces, which was actually pretty good. After the movie, I drove him home somehow managed not to get lost on the way home.

  Today was a pretty unproductive day/night. I decided to have a movie marathon, watching The Illusionist, Idiocrasy, and Flags of Our Fathers. I could give you a review of these movies, but that would take too long and shit, I had a hard enough time just trying to spell the names of the movies.
