Y5 D103

Now THAT was how you do Wednesday. The highlights:

- cops showing up
- a tattoo being done in the middle of the kitchen
- puking happening in the main and only bathroom
- peeing in the yard

When we throw down on a Wednesday, we do it right bitches. Out of all of those above, only one is related to me thank goodness. I was not the reason the cops showed, I neither gave nor received a tattoo, I was not to the point where I was going to puke. I did however, with my host's blessing, pee in the yard in a corner. This was because the above bathroom was occupied. While the night was fun, the day had its issues.

Got up and drove the kid to the train station. Because of traffic it took me an hour roundtrip to go roughly 10 miles. I was not in a good mood on the way back. When I got back I stopped at the service shop to talk to them about B's car. It's been making a noise and she was worried. I explained to the mechanic the symptoms and he said to bring it by although odds are it was nothing major. That's what I had figured as well. I got home, got B up and then we dropped the car off and headed to the DMV for her to get her California ID finally. (Ugh I keep getting pulled away while trying to write this.) The line at the DMV was a mile long. Okay, fine it wasn't really a mile but it sure felt like it. Almost 2 hours later we got out of there. While we were there the mechanic called - nothing major. The most likely candidate is the AC compressor which is already dead. It might be the tensioner but he couldn't quite tell. Regardless, it is nothing that is going to be life threatening.

After the DMV we grabbed some lunch since it was close to the time to pick the kid back up at the train. This is where the 'fun' started. On the way back to the mechanic to pick up B's car, I casually mentioned to the kid she needs to put gas in it. She then started going on about how she put gas in before she left for burning man and there was gas and she needed to look at her bank statement which of course sent B into a ball of white hot rage. The issue though is that she didn't mean it the way it came out. She was okay with putting gas in, she was just confused about when she had last put gas in. That of course didn't come out until later. We got to the shop and B stormed off to get her car, put her own gas in, and that set the kid off who started bawling. On one side I have one who let's everything piss her off too quickly and on the other I have one who is massively emotional too quickly. And here I am stuck in the middle. Saturday. On Saturday the kid and KBF are off to look at an apartment. I can survive until then. The next few hours were tense while everyone calmed the fuck down.

We made it through and all watched some TV together before it was time to head out to the party. The whole point of the party was a final going away for our friend as well as Always Sunny premiere night. We had a ton of fun and got home around 11:30.

All in all it was an okay day. A little too much up and down, but I survived.
