Day trip

Fun day today...accomplished a lot....sorta.

My day started wth remarkable lack of motivation - and a sing along.

My alarm clock went off at 7:15.
Wth was I thinking when I set that!!! What an ungodly time on a Saturday morning!!!

So I pressed snooze.

Twice.

Damn. Now it's 7:35 and i'm supposed to be meeting my friend in the lobby in like 5 minutes.

So I rush like a madwoman... carefull not to wake my roommate, and get to the lobby. And guess who's not there. The friend I was hurrying up for so she wouldn't have to wait.

Long story short, I read Glamour Magazine for a good ten minutes (I almost died. lol.) before she finally strolls into the lobby. strolls. Slowly. I hurried my freakin butt up, and she strolls. Unfortunately, I couldn't yell at her, because she was driving. (That's my goal for next summer - buy a car.) So we drive off into the entrails of Yates County and off to the autism walk at MCC. Long drive. We sang along to the radio the entire way. It was hysterical. it's great to have made such a good friend that we can sing in the car together without fear of hurting the other's ears.

So an hour and a half of horses and buggys, and finally the thruway, later, we arrive at MCC to see a massive swarm of people. Actually, more a gaggle. Or maybe a pod... flock? Ayway, definately more than a pack... maybe a pride? Anyway, we get to the voluteer tent, and no one can tell us where to go. We got big green buttons though. So finally, like 20 mins later, standing there like idiots in the drizzling rain, someone says, "hey, the other keuka girls are over there." Gee, thanks. Couldn't have just turned and pointed half an hour ago?! So we went and sat around for a couple hours. Glad our time was put to good use. I could have been sleeping. The most work we did the first three hours was put up cones.

But clean-up we were busy, so it was all good. I got to drive one of those dollies you use to move heavy stuff. Andby drive I mean push and then jump on. My friend called me a five year old. I agreed.

Anyway, when that was over, we went to a bargain store across the street. I bought popcorn. Cheap popcorn. Then we went to Amiels - best sub shop ever. Their bread is amazing.

On the drive back we got lost, so we got off at the Farmington exit and visited my house.

Overall a very productive trip.
