So last night was way fun. Well...most of it was at least. I went with Adam to Ventura around 4ish after I got out of school. He picked me up at Jordan's house. My mom thought I was going to Ventura with Jordan and her dad. Ha. Not so. I told her that I would be going with Jordan because I wasn't sure if she would even let me go with Adam since she didn't know him and like...it's 45 minutes away. But the biggest reason was that I wanted to see if she would even find out, if I would get away with it, if she was really that oblivious about what I do with my life. Turns out she knows me a little better than I thought. But yeah that was a mistake. It just sucks because I don't like ever...lie to anyone...and now everyone probably thinks I'm some pathological liar or something. Which I'm not. So yeah he picked me up at Jordan's and we drove on the 126, but we were being blinded by the sun and deafened by the air coming into the windows because his ac doesn't work. But we finally got there and he parked in a 2 hour parking zone and we went into Scott's. He got a reading, which didn't actually last very long because he didn't have a ton of questions to ask at the end, and we walked down the street. I was originally going to go to Wild Planet just to look around, but then we saw a sign for Guitar Hero at Zoey's Cafe, or whatever that place was called. And Adam had been telling me about how much he loves playing that game and how awesome he is at it, so we went to check it out. There were only 2 other guys playing GH when we got there, so Adam played and totally kicked their asses. And he had never played GH2. Just the first one. The guy that owned the cafe was so impressed that he tried to give Adam a beer, but he wouldn't take it because he was going to be driving home. And he's incredibly anti-drinking and driving. I was impressed. Then we had to move the car to another parking lot because the 2 hours were up. But we went back and he played GH for a little longer. Afterwards, we went and walked to the beach. We found this kids' playground thingy and he was rather amused by it, the bridge in particular. It was fun, though. We went back to his car and started driving home and my mom called me. I told her I was just going through Fillmore and that I would call her when I got back to Jordan's house (remember I was supposed to be with her the whole time) so she could come and get me. So we kept driving and talking and listening to music and stuff and then I felt my phone vibrating, but we were in the middle of a song so I pushed the button to send a busy tone to the caller. But the person kept calling and calling so I answered it. It was my mom. And she had found out that I wasn't with Jordan. Shit. So Adam was going to drop me off at home. I told him that he could just drop me off by the Benz's house and I would walk up, but he said that he wouldn't mind going with me to my house to meet my mom and like...get yelled at, basically...which was also impressive. Most guys would be like....oh shit your mom's mad? Ok I'll just leave you here and uh...I gotta go... So we drove up and my mom was reeeeeeally pissed off because she had just found out a few minutes before. So there was like no calming down time. She yelled at him a little bit and then grabbed my arm hard enough that I still have bruises on it. It's kinda cool, though, since you can see where she grabbed me. Ha yeah I'm easily amused....but anyway. She dragged me into the house and yelled at me for a while and then took my phone and destroyed it. Like I didn't see that coming. I tried to warn her that she would regret it later, as she has regretted destroying soooo many other things of ours. Mostly my brother's. But she didn't listen. So now all my phone numbers in that phone are gone....I get to start over again. Yay. But this morning when I woke up my mom was being really nice to me and she apologized for last night. She said she was sorry for yelling at us and she felt really bad. I was ready to go to school and everything, but she said that I was taking today off and just going to be with her. At first I was like...oh shit....she's going to send me to some boarding school or something....she's just trying to keep me calm so I'll be easier to drug. But we went to Corner Bakery for breakfast this morning and talked the whole thing over, which was nice. I like being able to communicate with my parents, not just be treated like some little kid or something. I mean....I'm not an idiot. So I don't appreciate being treated like one. Which was why it was nice that she took the time to talk to me about it. She said she felt really bad for not being there enough for me and she could kinda see why I would lie to her about going out with Adam. But from now on she wants to know who I'm going out with before I do anything, not so she can stop me, but just like....so she knows. She says she doesn't mind me going places with them, just wants to make sure they're not like....drug dealers or something. Then we drove around looking for a place to get me a new phone to replace the one that she...killed. I figured I wanted to get a better phone than the one I had, so I'm looking at either the Slivr one or the D807 I think it's called. Both are cool. So I should be getting another one soon. Yay. If anything my mom yelling at me was a good thing...ha. So now I'm just chilling at Ron's work using his computer (obviously) and waiting to go to work in like....an hour. But yes. I am indeed alive.
