Midnight Adventure

So Anthony and I went grocery shopping at Wally's World tonight, because he never buys anything healthy unless I go with him. This guy can literally live off Mr. Freeze pops.

So we're driving down Hudson back to his apartment when suddenly we see a huge bright flash of light. At first we thought it was heat lightening, but we didn't think it felt very humid.

Suddenly all the stop lights went out and everything went black. According to Anthony, a transformer blew up over at the Power Plant, which is right next to his apartment complex.

We got to his apartment and started lighting the candles we'd just coincidentally bought. I went out on to the balcony where I started flashing my candle at all the other people on surrounding balconies who were holding flash lights and candles. It was pretty sweet.

Some guys in the building next to Anthony's were out on their balcony drunk and smoking pot. I chatted them up for a while, and they asked what I did tonight. I said that I'd just played my guitar and watched TV. Immediately, Shawn (one of the drunk guys who asked my first name and introduced himself. He started calling me Kum By Ya after I mentioned I played guitar) demanded I get my guitar out and play it. What the heck! So I did. :)

After a few minutes of playing and yelling hellos to other people who were walking around, out on their balconies or whatever, a chick comes out on the balcony next to ours and yells at me.

"Hey!"

Me: "What's up?"

Random Bitch: Some people have class in the morning and don't want to be kept up all night listening to someone play stupid campfire songs.

Me: Sorry...


PSH! Just because I'm playing my guitar out on a balcony under the stars with my candle by my feet does not make me a cowgirl playing campfire songs.

So I stopped, Anthony said he wanted to go blare his stereo after that, and Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum said "F*** that b**ch! Play it anyway! Screw her! Its a free country. I swear, if I could see your face now, Cassie, I'd ask you to marry me. You are f***ing awesome and your name sounds like the name of an angel. PLAY that guitar, don't be scared!...hey, do you have anything I can role this s**t up in?"


Hahahaha. :D Drunk people crack me up.


After that, Anthony and I went back inside because he was cold and watched four people playing Hide & Seek outside his window in the open community area (Anthony's apartment over looks the pool, volley ball court, picnic tables, grills, work out center, Welcome Center, etc. and you can see all but two of the other apartment buildings.

Downsides to the night: After I flushed the toilet, the bowl filled with rusty water. Ewwwww....dunno if the faucet is like that too since I didn't run it long enough to find out.

Otherwise, it was a good night, definitely entertaining. :D I love stuff like power outages. They don't bother me, even though Anthony was freaking about the food a little. I blew it off because all I could think about was how we were in town, not the country, and how my family had been without power for a week and a half in the middle of winter. So this was definitely just child's play and way fun for me. :)

I even put a candle in the window and called it my hope candle. :P

Anyway, just a random post, since I haven't blogged in a while (sorry). Not sure if anyone reads this, IF YOU DO YOU SHOULD COMMENT. :) Sometime at least.

Summer is awesome, I'm finally settling into my new routine instead of shooting up in my bed at 8am every Tuesday and Thursday morning thinking I'm late for class.

Hope summer is going well for the rest of you! Thanks for reading,

Happy Summer,
