(Yum, yum. I just ate a mini cupcake. I bought a dozen mini cupcakes at Wal-Mart earlier before heading into work for my co-workers.)
Yesterday and today are Hayley's days off of work. She came by yesterday around 7-ish to hang out with me until I got off of work at 8. On the way over here, she became lost because she was going by Tim's directions last time both of them came for me. She called me and I gave her directions and she made it here. Good thing to, she would've cut me.
Well, after work was over, we went to Starbucks. I got a machiatto and she got a frappachino. Then we decided we wanted something else, so Hayley got a big cube of rice krispies looking thing and I got a slice of lemon pound cake. We then head to the Cici's Pizza in Mesquite. Or at least I thought we were.
Hayley sounded like she knew where she was going. "Yeah, I just get on the highway and go to the Cici's in Mesquite." She ended up getting onto the highway towards downtown Dallas. She had to turn around and go the other way. Then she saw a sign. "Town East Boulevard, I know where we're going." Apparently she didn't, but I ended up knowing where we were at. We had ended up on Bruton Rd. and then we came across Lake June. We got to the Cici's... 10 minutes short of them closing. Surprisingly, I was satisfied with the little bit of pizza they had out as they all began cleaning up.
I had wanted to go into a store called Game Rush because lately, I have been fascinated with video games. Talk about lame. The store was apparently a division of Blockbuster. So you could feel it suck harder than a hoover vacuum. Beautiful (but not really).
We then went to a nearby gas station so that Hayley could put gas in her sister's car and buy herself a pack of cigarettes. Before we had left my work place, she ate a turkey sandwich I brought to work. A couple of minutes later, she said she was going outside and then I asked her, "Weren't you quitting?" She replied that she was, but she was lessening it. Instead of 2 or 3, she was only going to smoke one. And so then I cracked a weird joke. I said, "But that's why I gave you the turkey sandwich... (I was giggling here) So you could quit cold turkey". For some reason, we thought it was really funny and we were laughing so hard.
Anyway, she paid for her gas and bought a pack of Marlboro Menthols Light and she commented that they "weren't as good as Camel Menthols". She then said that the cashier didn't ID her (even though she is 18). She took it as a bad thing, that she looked older. I said, "It's all that damn smoking you do". Then she said "I was about to say that!"
We drove to Tim's work afterwards and we ordered a medium Dr.Pepper for me. I wanted a taco but that would've given away my identity. I'm the only weird one in the gruop who eats their tacos with just lettuce. If we would've said "a taco with just lettuce", Tim might have said "Diana?" We ended up paying (uh, boo Tim) and I ordered my taco at the window. Lately, I've been super hungry. I think it's the diet I started 2 weeks ago. If it's eaten at night, it doesn't have any calories... (Ha ha, I wish!)
We waited about 15 minutes for Tim to get off of work. While we were waiting, Hayley tried getting me to take a puff of her cigarette. No ma'am, not me. I don't give into peer pressure. When Tim got off of work, we all went to the park by the federal correction center. I think that place is going to be our official hangout. On the way to the park on the highway, Hayley was burning rubber trying to "beat" Tim to the park. Well, it wasn't a hard thing to do for Tim the Turtle... Before reaching the bridge towards Seagoville, there was a s-l-o-w van in our way. Hayley decide to go around it. She went on the van's right side and we both noticed that the road was getting smaller. I thought that the van was going to crush us! Apparently, Hayley "switched lanes" on a lane you take onto the highway that becomes one lane. After that craziness, we waited about 5 minutes for Tim at the park.
Tim parked beside us and both Tim and Hayley got out. I stayed my sans jacket self in the car. Tim didn't have a jacket either but he's always hot. I am too, but not that night. I watched them stand outside for about a minute when both of them came into Hayley's car. Tim commented that he had never been inside Hayley's car. Hayley said it wasn't her car, that it was her sister's car. We ended up calling Maddie, Hayley's sister, to get directions on opening the sun roof to the car. Maddie was on speakerphone and told Hayley that she could've said something if she was going to take her car. Hayley (being a smartass), said "Maddie, I took your car". Hayley also told Maddie that she put gas in it (irrevalant albiet thoughtful).
Hayley turned the car on and we just drove around. She said we were driving around because she was tired of looking at the playground. Ok, makes sense. Tim interjected halfway into the drive that he left his car unlocked and parked at the playground. Hayley said she would turn around and go back once we reached the AG barn. It was my first time seeing the AG barn. We turned around and Hayley pointed to a road leading somewhere to our right and said that "down that road is the ghetto of Seagoville".
We went back to the park and Tim got off and jumped into his car and followed us. We were going to check out the ghetto. Ha ha. It was creepy. A winding road surrounded by old, leafless trees. The fact that it was dark outside didn't help. We saw it and then we went to the park. I decided to get Tim some cigarettes to shut him up and because I wanted some tacos from Jack-in-the-Box. Those tacos are ah-mazing! I can't believe I went without having one for so long! I first tried one 3 days ago...
We got my tacos and then I skipped on the way into the convenience store. The Jack-in-the-Box we went to is inside of a convenience store for a gas station. I got a stawberry-kiwi Rain Gatorade and then when I was paying, I asked for a pack of Marlboro Menthol Lights. I realized my error when I got into the car. I had repeated the cigarettes that Tim wanted twice before going into the store. "Camel Menthol Lights"...
Tim said it was ok and took them. Hayley dropped me off at home. My parents were sound asleep when I came inside after closing the garage. I checked up on my brothers and then went to my room. Junior was up with the TV on, playing his DS and Omar was asleep. I ate my tacos and talked to Jose while I ate. The conversation went on for about 3 hours. I went to sleep after drink an "Agua de Lourdes". It's mineral water that I grew up with due to my mom drinking it all the time. You know Mexicans and their weird cures. You drink this carbonated water and it soothes your stomach, similar to a Pepto Bismol or a milk of magnesia.
