Hey guys.
It's been a while. Guess what? It's December!!! Winter break is around the corner. =) I might start updating InuYasha_50 soon. But...that's only if you're nice and not naughty.
...Maybe somewhere in between is okay.
A couple weekends ago I had a very interesting experience. I took the bus to a friend's house to see if she wanted to do anything that night. My emmense bordom overtook my laziness.
She turned out to be at her father's apartment, so I walked there and knocked on the door. She answered...looking rather intoxicated. She invited me in and offered me a drink of Peppermint Shnapps. (Which I took very graciously.) She told me her father called her to come over and do some paper work for him and when she got here he was passed out in his bed. He had some leftover booze, so she had been sipping on it.
I stayed and kept her company. We watched TV, smoking her father's ciggerettes and drinking his liquor.
Maybe 3 hours later he woke up and came stumbling into the living room. She went to talk to him. I didn't pay attention to what they were saying. I just watched them absentmindedly.
All of a sudden I see him swing his hand across her face and jump out of my chair like a loaded spring. I leap between them and push her father off his feet and into the kitchen. He gets up and opens a drawer where he pulls out a knife. As he comes towards us I throw open the door and push my friend out of the apartment.
He seemed to be deciding if he was going to hurt me or not. The funny thing was, I didn't feel afraid. It was almost like I was expecting it. I think that's why my friend and I get along like brother and sister so well...because I have an alchoholic father too.
He stood there with a half-whitted look on his face, so I grabbed my friend's things and closed the door behind me.
We ended up staying out all night, walking from place to place untill they closed. It wasn't really all that bad.
