Random things... I just feel like writing.


So yesterday my girlfriend Rachelle from Long Island came up to visit me for the afternoon. I was so excited because I haven't seen her in almost 2 years. Between me moving up here & her moving to CA for a little, it made hanging out, well, impossible.

We used to work together at Nardy Honda, she was part of my sanity at that place. She is still there & I wish I was too, but anyways.

So she gets here & I see her attempt to pull up our driveway which is like a steep incline covered in ice. She is not getting up & from the window I see the panic & the turn of the wheel which could end the life of her brand new Honda accord. So I run outside & I was planning on going down the drive to pull it up for her, but within 3 steps I begin to slide & immediately throw myself down because this gave me skiing flashbacks & I HATED skiing. So I am trying to gesture her on how to turn the wheel & then I scream to her to back out onto the road again & gun it. That's the only way... So after 10 minutes she gets up my drive & I get to see the face of my smiling friend who I missed sooo much.

We hang out & BS & catch each other up on all the gossip of who is doing who, who is a druggie now, who died, & so on & so forth... we had A LOT to say.

Then it came time for her to leave... She is panicking because she does not want to drive down the drive which is even icier now. Luckily Pat was home by now he offered to do it for her.

Now she didn't want to be in the car when he was pulling it down which I still don't understand why but glad she didn't. He gets the car down fine to the bottom of the drive.

I look at her & think how the hell are you going to get down.. You have Uggs on which are sooo slippery, it is a sheet of ice & the drive is straight down. My genius friend says get a garbage bag. I knew this would be good. So she takes a few steps down .. Pat is right behind her... I am on the porch with my camera cause I knew I would need it. She is slipping all over the place.... so then Pat gets her to sit on the bag & she is yelling don't push me, don't push me & Pat is saying I wont, I ... Then he shoves her...

Picture your friend sitting on a garbage bag sliding down your driveway screaming I am going to die, I am going to die & she was going fast too I was worried she was going to end up underneath the car parked at the end of the driveway. But right before the car the garbage bag came out from underneath her ass & she carefully scooted the rest of the way........ I almost peed my pants I was laughing so hard.

She made it to the car alive & safe but it was so freaking funny. That alone was worth not seeing her for 2 years.. it made up for all the laughs we missed.
