What's going on in the world of liz!
My life has been interesting lately. And by interesting i mean full of a lot of BS and just not fun times. So this is under a cut for people who don't want to know and also because it'll be long. I figure putting it in my journal is a lot easier then having to tell the stories to everyone repeatedly.
So we'll start with last wednesday. I go to get my car inspected. Something i should have done a while ago but i hadn't because my dad told me it wouldn't pass because he had taken a part off. I finally said fuck it and took it anyway since i had a little bit of money to get that part replaced if need be. Turns out i don't need that part i need the rear brake pads replaced and the tire rods replaced. Yeah i can't afford that so i get the rejection sticker and plan on driving it home thursday and having my dad fix the problems.
Thursday I get up and get started on my day paying a ticket and getting ready to go to target and get some shopping done. And i get pulled over. No big deal i just explain i'm getting the work done over the weekend and it'll all be good. Nope. Turns out my liscence is suspended for some non-vehicle related charge in a county i don't live in. And the asshole of the cop won't even let me drive my car to the church up the road. So i call hobbit to come drive my car up there and the cop calls a wrecker even though i told him not to. Repeatedly. So hobbit shows up and so does the wrecker. The police officer then tells me i have to use the wrecker and i'm not allowed to leave my car at the church and all other kinds of nonsense. I am of course pissed off because i'm not paying to have my car towed when i have a friend right there who can drive it. So the cop calls in a code 2 which i assume is an "irrate woman" and another officer shows up. The first officer is obviously a rookie from how he acts and his lack of hat. The second officer looks like the bad guy from terminator only not so evil. And he has on a hat so i can respect him. He agrees with me. Just let my friend drive the car to the church and everything. Doesn't see the point in the wrecker. Well the first cop is an ass anyway and keeps talking about it being his 'traffic stop' and then the sargent pulls up. So rookie goes over and talks to the sarge and he says i have to use the wrecker and i'm pissed. But no point agrueing with him as well. I didn't feel like telling my parents i couldn't come home cause i was in jail. So i had to pay the $110 CASH to get my car towed the whole 2 miles home. I'm so lucky i was doing the babysitting job so i had that kind of money or else it gets towed to a lot which would have sucked worse. Now my car is at the apartment, my liscence is taken away, i'm pissed off, and $110 poorer. Luckily megan was on her way to the burg from NJ so i got a ride from her and got rides figured out and everything.
So friday I do some shopping with megan and dugger and had fun. Woke up my siblings at 8 am yelling at them to get jobs. Good times. Watched Advent Children with them and in general relaxed. Got home around 5 to help with dinner and my mom came upstairs and told me she had to talk to me. I figured it was about me talking back to her infront of my siblings. She doesn't like me giving them ideas. No. Granny had died Tuesday and she had waited to tell me in person rather then on the phone. She was trying to be kind but she really didn't have a clue. She was smart enough not to call the pastor over like she had with my siblings. My family had done a really good job keeping the secret from me. My siblings hadn't even let on at all. So i find this out and have to figure out how to get rides and everything situated again to get me back to richmond after the funeral.
Saturday and sunday were spent with the family. And i remembered again why i hate christmas. I'm giving it up. No more. Monday i got up really early to catch a bus to fredericksburg and had fun chatting with people on the bus. Thankfully managed to avoid being horribly ill because of that. Spent a lot of time not staring at the country side and what not. Ben Jones was my hero and came and got me and took me to the JD wedding. I saw Ana there and the Charchar family! We had fun. Amber was really pretty in her dress and JD was so happy! It was good to see them married. Ben and i left there and changed and went to food and saw King Kong. That movie was awesome! Full of all kinds of goodness. Stayed pretty close to the original and all the things that were added were completely in place and awesome! A bit too long but its ok. Went to ali's afterwards and crashed there. Ali and her family = awesome.
The next day i bummed around ali's house doing laundry and stuff since my parents were going to pick me up at 5. So i'm sitting around waiting for them when everyone comes home and we eat dinner. Around 6:30 i get a call from my mom "We're going out to dinner. We'll pick you up tomorrow." After repeating to me over and over again i had to be in fairfax at 5 to go to granny's and that i had to look nice since we were going to be spending all this time with family and what not she just changes everything and just assumes i can stay with ali's family. So not right. Luckily my friend andy was in town so i crashed with him. Wednesday was spent with my family. The funeral was nice. There was a big party afterwards at Granny's house. It was good. Everyone got to relive stories about her. She would have enjoyed the party. Everyone asked me my favorite story about granny. One time ali and i went by my granny's to say hello. And on the way out granny patted ali's ass and told her she was cute. In the car ali looked at me and said "Oh granny!" It was hilarious. Thursday we cleaned out the downstairs. It was a lot of work and we left around 2:30 not able to take it anymore. My mom drove me down to richmond and I was finally home after being gone for a week.
So i'm now back in Richmond. The courts are closed so i can't find out why my liscence is suspended until next week. I'm worn out from all the things going on. And i still need to figure out how to get my car inspected. Luckily i go back to work next week i just need to figure out how i'm going to get there. I'm tired, cranky, and hate life right now. So if you are wondering why you aren't going to see a lot of me in the future well until this is all worked out and i get all the moneys together i won't be going out much.
On a side note if anyone around northern va wants to pick up the tv i'm getting from my granny's and bring it to me i'll repay you in cookies and beer! Its like 27" or something like that. And i'll love you forever! I'm now going to go find food. The end.
