I NEED A DRINK

  OH MY GOD...I SO NEED A DRINK OR THREE AFTER THE ADVENTURES OF TODAY.   I THOUGHT YESTERDAY WAS EXCITING.......I HAD NO IDEA WHAT WE WERE UP AGAINST TODAY.  OUR JOURNEY FROM PETALUMA TO EUREKA SHOULD HAVE BEEN JUST OVER 4 HOURS, BUT WE DECIDED TO TAKE THE SCENIC ROUTE......IT TOOK US ALMOST 7 HOURS..TRAVELLING SPEEDS BETWEEN 15 MPH UP TO 50 MPH.  NOW I MUST SAY IT WAS THE MOST WONDERFUL SCENIC DRIVE I HAVE EVER SEEN.   AND I MUST SAY I AM HAPPY TO HAVE  HAD THE CHANCE TO SEE THIS ROUTE BUT I WILL NEVER...AND I MEAN NEVER...BE ON THIS ROAD AGAIN.   I ACTUALLY FEARED FOR OUR LIVES.  I WOULD RATHER SPEND 10 HRS ON THE ROLLER COASTER AT WEST EDMONTON MALL.   IT WAS OUR FIRST VIEW OF THE OCEAN AND I AM A WATER GIRL.  THE ROAD WAS SO NARROW WE HAD TO TURN OUR OUTSIDE MIRRORS IN SO WE WOULD NOT HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE OR THE ROCK BESIDE US.  I SWEAR A COUPLE OF TIMES I THOUGHT THE SEAT BELT WAS GOING TO DECAPITATE ME..MY NECK HAS THE MARKS TO PROVE IT.   THIS WAS THE MOST INTIMIDATING RIDE I HAVE EVER HAD . FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I HAD MOTION SICKNESS...NOW YOU MUST KEEP IN MIND LAST SUMMER I RODE ALMOST ALL OF THE RIDES AT K-DAYS..AND I LOVED IT.  OF COURSE THERE WERE MANY QUAINT VILLAGES WITH LUXERIOUS  (SP)  HOMES AND CUTE SHOPS.   MANY SECTIONS OF THE ROAD HAD NO GUARD RAILS...AND I WAS ALMOST GOING TO BE SICK WHEN I LOOKED DOWN.TERRY WANTED TO REPLAY THE PART OF AL PACINO IN THE MOVIE "SCENT OF A WOMEN"...(MY SCENT SMELLED LIKE CRAP").. HE WANTED ME TO BLINDFOLD HIM AND THEN GIVE HIM DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS.  HE ALSO SAID HE WOULD LOVE TO DRIVE AN AUDI THRU HERE...LIKE HELL....I KNEW HE WAS NERVOUS.  MANY OF THE TURNS WERE AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE AND WE ACTUALLY MISSED ONE CORNER AND LUCKY FOR US IT LANDED US IN A SCHOOL YARD..IT COULD HAVE BEEN THE OCEAN OR THE ROCK WALLS.   I TRYED TO CLOSE MY EYES BUT THAT ONLY MADE IT WORSE.    WE ACTUALLY STARTED TO THINK ABOUT OUR WILLS, WE HAVE NOT UPDATED THEM SINCE TERRY HAD THE ANURYISM (SP) AND LON WAS TO INHERIT OUR CHILDREN..THAT WAS ABOUT 17 YRS AGO.....NOW WE REALIZE THAT THEY WOULD INHERIT LON...GOTTA GET THAT UPDATED WHEN WE GET HOME.   THEN I REALLY GOT PISSED OF...I WAS THINKING ABOUT THE LAST MEAL I HAD....IT WAS SALAD, YOGURT, FRUIT, WARM WATER AND A LOUSY CIGARETTE .  REALLY IF IT WAS GOING TO BE MY LAST MEAL THIS IS HOW IT WOULD HAVE BEEN.....PIZZA, 2LBS  LOBSTER, GOOD CANADIAN SMOKES, AND A GLASS, ....NO TWO.....FRIG THAT ..3 GLASSES OF GRAND MARNIER.    BUT NOT TO WORRY.....WE ARE O.K.  THAT IS ALL ABOUT THAT..SOON I WILL BLOG ABOUT MY CRANKY DAY.......HOPE ALL IS WELL AT HOME
