I am writing this at literally the last moment. Technically it is day 12 already, but since I'm still up I'm not counting it. Today was an extremely busy day. I woke up and had my dad pick me up from my grandparents house at 10:30, then I came back home and visited my friend. And then I had to take a shower and an hour or so later my parents and I took the '56 Chevy Bel Air to my uncle's for the barbecue after picking up my cousin Annie. However, on the way there something happened and the fan belt broke in the car and apparently something happened to the generator. We were only 3 miles from my uncle's house so he came and got us and we drove around for an hour and twenty minutes looking for the right part. We came back after we had gone to three different auto parts places. My uncle took me and my cousin home and left my parents to fix the car. An hour later they still weren't back, luckily my other uncle that was on the way ti the barbecue drove past them and gave them a ride to another store to get something else they needed. To make a long story short, or rather to sum it all up, the car left my house at 2:30 and it got to my uncle's around 6pm. It took three and a half hours for the car to make a forty minute drive. In that amount of time I would have been almost back at college.
Its funny that this happened to me and my cousin because two years ago when we were out in Colorado one of my uncle's cars broke down in the middle of nowhere and we were in it. That day was probably the worst day of my life. But looking back on it I'm actually glad I have had that experience so when something like that happens again, and it will, I'll know what to do.
Anyway, the barbecue was great. My cousins and I fished on my uncle's pond, we played Foosball, and played President(the card game if you didn't know). We had a great time, and tomorrow is Easter, so Happy Easter!! I know I can't wait for my Easter basket outside my door in the morning, haha. I feel like a little kid.
Goodbye!
