Who Ate My Donut?

Note

28th August 2008

Sooo, yeah!

Today was a good day.  Spent the afternoon being lazy, which I shouldn’t have, but I slept too late to really get anything accomplished.  I need to fix that.  Picked up dinner for my parents, then left to pick up Brenna and head up to Wednesday Night Ride.  Wore the full leathers today, too, just for shits and giggles.

The ride was a good time.  Except for the crazy separation that happened due to some unfortunate intersection miscommunications, and a guy dumping his bike (he and the bike are ok, it was very minor).  However we all ended back up at the gas station we mentioned before leaving (whew!), and off we were.

We bounced around downtown for a while, at one point ending up stopped at an intersection right outside a bar where there were a bunch of Harley guys outside.  Well of course they’re all giving thumbs down and just being funny.  Our whole group just ERUPTED with revving and burn out noises and whatnot.  It was wicked.  The best part was there was a motorcycle cop chilling on the corner, and he was just laughing and shaking his head.  Big hug for that guy for being cool.

Fast forward to much later in the evening.  Brenna and I are tired, and she has to get up for work early in the morning, so we leave Ion to get her home.  Well while traveling down Water St., this guy who must have been obliterated drunk was driving down the WRONG WAY of Water.  Water St. has two lanes going each direction, with a nice large median in the middle.  I was in the right lane and in the process of passing a Taxi who was pulling off to the side of the road (either cause he saw this retard, or he found someone to pick up), and moron comes barreling at the car in the left lane.  That car then proceeds to almost side swipe me from attempting to change lanes in order to avoid super genius.

I got in between the car on the left and the taxi, and captain drunk must’ve stopped, because I just saw an opening and bolted through it and got away from everyone.  I REALLY hope that douchebag got what he deserved, though.  Talk about almost a serious freakin’ accident.

And then, just to add a sprinkle of humor to the end of the evening, we’re on North Ave (another bar street), and this girl starts walking slowly across the street right near where I’m coming.  Her friend, seeing me about to nail her, runs out a few feet then yanks her back out of the middle of the road, almost knocking her to her feet.  I had plenty of time to watch all of this and still not be near them, so it wasn’t anything to worry about, but it’s still amusing to watch.  Much more amusing than idiot drunk on Water.

So that was my evening.  Now I’m going to take my contacts out and go to sleeeeeeep.  Mmmm…

Oh, and while you’re here, check out this link.  It’s amusing.
