42 Hours of No Sleep

Well I finally did something crazy Saturday night. I’m at work, it’s slow due to prom night, and its about 10:30. When I hear Chris telling Monique ( sheena’s sister)  that Sheena is stuck in St. Louis.  Friday Sheena went to st. Louis to six flags with her friend. Well her friend freaked out late Saturday evening and they got in a huge fight. When Monique and I got off work, we offered to get her, and finally at 1am Sheena agreed. So we grabbed our stuff, kissed our men good bye, and started driving. Had a good time. It was raining and pitch black, and cold. We made to Illinios sometime at 5am. Stopped at a mickey D’s and ate, stretched and conitnued. The rain stopped somewhere along the way and the clouds turned from dark to light, and the blue started coming into the sky.  About 6 we made in into St. Louis and got some pictures of the arch on Monique’s cam phone. We shoulda grabbed a camera, but totally forgot.  Made it to Sheena at about 7:30 and took off. Stopped to fill up the tank, and grab some energy drinks. I also picked Chris up a 64oz mug for his soda’s. He loves it. We made it back to Tennessee at 11:00am.

I hadnt slept in 27 hours, and I had work at three. Well I called work to call out, and that asshole Eric wouldn’t let me. So I spent an hour trying to find someone to work for me, and then called back and said I tried. He still told me to come in. I got pissed and Sheena called Marcus the GM at home, and he told me to call again and tell them I’m not coming in and I’ll take the write up, and not to worry about it. Marcus is a cool boss, when you need him, he has your back. When I called back Eric tried to say I’d get fired, but whatever Marucs already told me I was cool, so I hung up on his ass. I finally went to sleep at 4 and woke up at 10p.m. Talked to Chris on the phone, passed back out until 12am. Chris woke me up at gave me some taco bell, and I realized I hadnt eaten since 5:30 that morning. Went back to sleep until 8:30 this morning.

And you know, I would do it again, because when my friend is in trouble, I help. I don’t say sorry that sucks. Sheena is like family, and I wouldnt let monique drive alone, fall asleep at the wheel, and kill herself. Monique is an awesome chick and she rocks my socks.
