Oh happy days...

So another muy exciting weekend for little old Addy. Let's start from the beginning shall we?

Friday night. Work as usual. Boring, cold, greasy, itchy, just gross. Chad calls me at work. I am happy for a while. So Travis invites me over to his place with Skinny E, and of course, I'm starving, I can't resist Erik's promise of delicious chicken fingers. So we go over, I make the chicken fingers (because I was the woman, I should've swept the floor while I was at it), and I also had some delicious chocolate truffle mousse cake Travis was hiding away in his fridge...delish. So I had my sissy drinks (cranberry Mikes..not too sissy), and of course Travis ALWAYS (and I mean always) has Jack and Coke kicking around somewhere, so I had that too. I got a little drunk, Erik got drunk drunk, and we laughed, and watched paintball on a TV show where everything was wrong....don't ask. After a while, I walked back home and treated you all to that wonderful last post by Drunk Addy. Good times had by all in the end.

Saturday comes. The fun begins. I'm at work all morning, somewhat antsy because I know I get to see Chad that night. Here's an example of what I was doing all day:

Joey: "Addy why do you keep looking at the clock...?"
Me: "6 Hours and 45 minutes until I get to see Chad!!!!!"

Yes I'm lame.

I also went and saw Jocelyn. She looked angry to be working, angrier than usual. I tried to cheer her up. Here's how that went:

Me: "Bye Jocelyn! Have an awesome day!"
Jocey: "I sure won't!"

Then during the last hour or so of my shift, one of the guys playing said something that pretty much made my day. Here's how that went:

Me: "You guys done playing?"
Guy: "Almost...man I am sweating like a hooker in church out there!!"

...holy fuck....I was in tears laughing.

After getting the fuck out of the field as fast as I could, I went downtown and picked up Chad's present, along with a few other fun things, like hair dye! I got home and dyed my hair (yes the fucking pink is back bitches!!!), showered and realized that holy fuck, my bus was leaving in about 15 minutes! I literally threw anything close by into my bag and sprinted (yes fucking sprinted) all the way to the bus terminal. I looked at my watch when I got there, still have 5 minutes to buy the ticket, good. I walk up to the doors...and my heart pretty much jumped into my throat. The fucking terminal is closed...I have no way to get a ticket...

If you want to imagine the saddest thing ever, picture me at this moment. A tiny little girl, soaking wet from the snow and rain, out of breath from running, my hair is still wet from the shower, no make up, standing outside the bus station with my bag in my hand and Chad's present in the other, nearly in tears because I don't get to see Chad.

I'm getting teary-eyed just thinking about it. I nearly have the lil brudder effect here.

So I go home. The entire walk back I'm thinking "no, there is no FUCKING way I am not seeing Chad tonight." I get back home, call Chad and tell him I'm taking a cab up to see him. How much will it cost? I get out the phone book:

Lady: "Hello, Canadian Cab."
Me: "Yes I wondering how much a cab would cost to Kitchener."
Lady: "Um, downtown Guelph to downtown Kitchener, that would be about $48.50"
Me: "Holy fuck! I mean, sorry, thanks bye." *hangs up hastily*

At this point I don't care, money is no object to me. I walk back downtown and get a cab to Kitchener. It took a few tries:

Cab driver: "So where to?"
Me: "*Chad's address* in Kitchener."
Cab driver: "Kitchener? Oh uh...maybe you should try another car because I don't know Kitchener."
Me: "Oh...ok..."

Idiot. That's what maps are for you wanker. I got in the next car, now this lady knew what she was doing. She figured out exactly where we were going, how much it would cost, all that fun stuff. She ruled.

After we left, I got a little more comfortable with talking to her, because most people who know me know that I can be really really shy when I first meet someone. She was giving me advice about making the dstance thing work with Chad:

Driver: "So you have a job right? And him as well?"
Me: "Yes."
Driver: "So you 2 should find an apartment like...halfway between Guelph and Kitchener. Breslaw is a nice town! And if that doesn't work, flip a coin to see who has to take the trip each time!"

Now this is when things got interesting. She asked me what I was studying in school, I told her that I was still in high school, and only 17. She seemed very surprised. Apparently I'm more mature than some of the 3rd and 4th year students she encounters on her shift. So she asked where I go to school:

Me: "Oh I go to Ross."
Driver: "Oh really? My son went to Ross 2 years ago!"

Uh oh...

Me: "Really?"
Driver: "Yes, he was student council president actually."

Uh oh...

Me: "Really? Well what's his name? I probably know him."
Driver: "David Facsinato."

Ding ding ding. We have a winner.

Me: "You're not going to believe this, but I've gone to school with him since I was in kindergarten. I'm Addy...Kirsten Palm's younger sister..."
Driver: "*looks at me closely*....oh my goodness...I havn't seen you in ages! But it's you alright!! My god! That is fucking amazing!"

She actually remembered me from Tytler and everything. Strange things like this never happen to me. I think Chad's wierdo-magnet has rubbed off on me. Now it's not like this was a bad thing. In the end she ended up giving me an awesome discount on the cab ride, "shitchyeah" as Chad would say.

I arrived at Chad's finally, about an hour later than I was planning, he was all worried of course. Darcy, Potts and Madrox had already headed out to the bar for the night, so it was nice and quiet at the house. I gave Chad his present, which I think he really liked (McFarlane's Twisted Peter Pumpkin Eater, fuck yeah), and he showed me the present he hadn't quite finished, a little Warhed Teddy Bear, complete with face paint and taped up paws...his gifts are so much more creative than mine. I'm going to have to build a shelf in my room for all the Teddy Bears Chad gives me.

We hung around the house for a while, Darcy, Potts, Madrox and some girls came back to the house at around 2:30am, so Chad and I decided that it was a good time to go out for a nice late night coffee. I was a little surprised to see anyone else in Tim Horton's at that hour. Honestly, there was some middle aged guy sitting there reading the paper...it was wierd. After that, we headed back, and walked down a street with really really pretty street lights. I talked to drunk Darcy for a while, which was...interesting, he stripped in front of me, had no underwear on, and was licking a can of pepper spray...that's Darcy. It was a little hard to talk to him when he was drunk, because he's a bit of an asshole when he is, example:

Darcy: "So how was the bus ride from Guelph?"
Me: "I didn't take the bus."
Darcy: "How did you get here?"
Me: "I took a cab."
Darcy: "Holy shit. How much did that cost you?"
Me: "45 bucks."
Darcy: "...idiot."

It was finally time for bed, seeing as how Chad had to work in about 4 hours.

I slept, hardcore, that's all there was to that, haha.

Chad woke me up at around 11 because he was bored at work and wanted me to come hang out with him. He showed me around his building, showed me where he smokes and talks to me, met the crazy croation lady who was cool, then we left. We walked around downtown Kitchener for a while, and I gotta tell you, Kitchener fucking rules, I am totally moving there. Went to some cool shops, Out of the Past (my new favourite store), ABC Surplus to meet Chad's polish friend, and then finally out for breakfast where I impressed Chad by eating so much food.

We headed back to Chad's for the last few hours of my trip, ate oreos and milk (combination of the gods) and Chad surprised me AGAIN by coming back to Guelph with me.

On the bus...listening to music in the dark = awesome.

We lost at hockey that night, which sucked, but I pulled an awesome move by fucking jumping on the puck in the crease at the last second, fuck yeah. Plus on the way back I got chocolate milk and green tea. If I had apple juice it would've been a drink orgy.

Then Chad and I came back to my place. He played some more music for me (something I will never get tired of, ever). I finally got up the courage to play something for him. I was really nervous, but when I finished, Chad gave me the best compliment I've ever gotten in my life, and he didn't even say a word.

So school came and went today, Chad is now back in Kitchener, getting his tattoo soon, which will be super awesome hot.

So yes, as you can see, an action packed fun-filled weekend for the Addy. My weekdays seem so boring in comparison. I have about 4 hours or so of Physics homework to do right now, so I'm going to get on that. Man I wish I had some green tea right now....

I'm in love with the world
