Day 414 of 365 More.
How to waste a perfectly good evening.
The plan for the day was pretty simple. Help a friend move. Take a couple promo shots of Shiima. Then Steph and I were going to go out with a friend to a bar for Karaoke. I was looking forward to a good night of drunken fun. Like I said before, I so look forward to the weekends to have a good time.
So Steph decides she doesn’t want to go. I spend like an hour trying to convince her and just finally give up. I tell my friend over IM that Steph is staying home and then I leave and drive across town (its about 30 min.) to pick her up.
When I get there, I bang on her door and no one ever answers. I call her house phone. No answer. Finally I send her a text message.
Apparently she took me saying Steph wasn’t coming to mean that I wasn’t either and then went to her roommate’s family’s house. So I drove all the way across town for nothing. Then had to drive all the way back, missed a turn and got lost briefly, so it took me even longer to get home.
Got home and once again there was a couple having sex in my driveway blocking my garage. Unfortunately, I didn’t have my camera ready and didn’t catch them in the act. And they weren’t even kids this time. They had to be in their 40s. Maybe they’re having an affair.
Steph’s already gone to sleep and I pretty much have nothing to do.
Dammit, I hate having to drink alone.
One high-intensity security light on a motion detector with random duration setting, mounted on a pole ten feet up might discourage,…Ahemmmmm, ‘ muskrat love.’
I would have had a drink with you.
@DeHoll: I actually don’t care if people are having sex by my driveway. I’m more annoyed by the kids who keep tagging my garage. But as far as I can tell, they do that in broad daylight, so really, a light isn’t going to discourage them much.
Ummm yeah, that’s a "I’m not happy with this" look if I ever saw one.
Your driveway has become a bit of a lover’s lane hasn’t it? One Saturday night you & Steph should be out there; when the interlopers show up, y’all should yell "DIBS!" Now, for the taggers, I haven’t figured that one out yet.
@lrayholly: well, I was thinking of electrifying the garage or installing a tranq dart gun or something.
Oooooooo…you look MAD!
@PhotoKat: I feel better now.
