Kathi made me breakfast. Supposedly it’s the most important meal of the day and I need to eat protein RIGHT when I get up. I thought my diet of coffee, cigarettes and a breakfast bar were enough, but nooooooooo, I gots to eat real food stuffs. (sigh). Of course breakfast was amazing (eggs with spinach and mushrooms and feta). I decide to call Joe Fittry (the RV guy). I had called him before I left Maine to see if he could check out my systems in the van while I was in PA…since, you know…I forgot when my appointment was in Maine (I’m still blaming that one on them though, I’m not THAT out of it yet!). Joe tells me to drop it off and he’ll try and take a look at the propane system at least (the valve is frozen…have I already told you about this? Hmmmm). Anyway, I way good and that I’ll drop it off sometime today! Unicorned another human with my charm ;) Kathi has to babysit Carter (Josh’s son) for about 4 hours, so we drive out and drop of Jezebel at Joe Fittry’s shop then drive to Josh’s house to hang with Carter. He has this water thingy that he thinks is AMAZING! Josh’s landlords have deer. Fenced in. They harvest the urine. ‘Nough said. There ARE wild bunnies in Pennsylvania
5:20 pm:
Return to Kathi’s house where I proceed to plot on what the best way is to steal Rocky. See now, Rocky is a purebred Bluetick Hound (Night Warrior clan) and GORGEOUS. I wants him. But he is Andrew’s…(sigh). Kathi distracts me from said dog stealing with pizza, which worked for a few moments. Actually, I shoved 4 pieces of pie in ma’ face like a frat boy who had just realized he hasn’t eaten anything in 30 minutes! GIMMIE! Then I hooped in the backyard and taught Josh how to…boys hoopin’? Yea. They can. And he did a great job!
9:00 pm:
Since I was of age now we decide to go to Orky’s which is the local bar in Shippensburg. Everyone’s been there and everyone goes there. AND they have PBR! Thank goodness!! Kathi and I play a mean game of pool…well…we have fun anyway! Tsssssss. Shut it. We don’t need to know no rules! Solids, stripy ones, black ball is last, hit other balls with white ball. See? Easy!
They have an amazing juke box (cue: Juke Box Hero): Flo-Rida, Lady Gaga, Blink 182, Journey, G N’ R, AC/DC. What more could one ask for??!! So yea, if you know me, you know that I was a one woman dance machine while playing pool…someone should have warned the locals. So here we are having a splendid time dancin’ and poolin’, when this dude walks up smirkin’. I look over and say “hey” (statement/question, ‘cause I recognize him). He says “Hey. How you doin’ Amber Dorcus?”. WHA??!!! Really??!! Holy crap. Dude I went to High School with you in 1991!! I was 17!!!! That is totally unfair that you know my first AND last name. So we do introductions and it’s Dan…who, well…weren’t so nice to me in High School, but hey, Imma Unicorn now. I don’t care! We had a nice talk afterwards. I told him he needed to get outta Dodge (aka Shippensburg). He will…someday. Seed has been planted.
1:30 am:
Walkin’ home from Orky’s with Kathi. I guess it’s ok to leave your car at the local bar until the morning (or afternoon), what a novel idea! I told Kathi about “city walk” which I then forced upon her because she was worried walking arm and arm with me in a small town. PHHHHHSSSSSSSSS. What ever. It’s ME! They obviously all know me, so if they question you, just blame it on the crazy girl from up North! Kathi unfortunately, had well vodka at Orky’s which led to a very bad next day. L
