why i hate scranton

well, i had 2 days off of school so mom wanted to go camping. you cant do anything aobut her camping in the fall, its just a fact of life. sometimes you manage to bring someone along, but seeing as how- ok, just no. anyway, me n' mom n' dad all loaded into the van and took off for the finger lakes at about 6 AM tuesday morning (no, 6 AM tuesday afternoon. what the hell ¬¬). we got there around 12 or something and roasted hotdogs on the fire (that i built WITHOUT matches thank you very much). then we went on a nice hike in this gorge thing that was around there. that was pretty cool. very zen. my chucks got wet. gunther would not approve.
then we went back and set up the tent and stuff. and we went to the lake and looked at it. rather, mom looked at the big, mahogany boat. i glanced at it and decided it looked like a large, floating coffin. we frittered (<-- is that right? im using it like capt. barbosa did so dont get angry at me if im wrong get angry at him. even better, get glad. i am a corperate whore. and i dont even get paid for it.) away the time untill it was late enough to make dinner. that was some good steak. and those were some good potaotes. and yes, i am a meat and potatoes kinda person. well, it had gotten dark while we were cooking so we were eating in the dark. i was forced to eat everything infront of me because i couldnt see the fat to cut it away. so we were talking about something and i hear rustleing comming from out side of the site, so im like to dad "quick, gimme the flashlite" and he gives it to me and i turn it on right at the spot the rustiling is comming from, and lo and behold a skunk has found his way into our campsite. at first i was a little freaked because i had just shown a bright light into its eyes and thought that might scare it. but no, it was compleatly unafraid. so we chased it off, and continued eating. it came back, this time by the tent. we chased it off. but next it was snooping around the van. well, it eventually left for good. it was actually pretty cute. had a fluffy tail. now, it was pretty uneventful up untill the museam so i'll just skip ahead. we went ot the museam of the earth. it was pretty good. fossils and such. they had a nice mastadon. i got a cool rock that has the word "Laugh" carved into it. its sparkly. i think its jasper. i should have bought the bag that has the jesus fish with feet that says EVLOUTION in it. but im too hesitant. so we went out into the van and tried to start it. it kept stalling but we eventually got it going. we drove about 2 hours and were about to get on the turn pike when *splut* the trasmision compleatly goes. dead. arg. so dad walks up to the tool booth and gets a # for a towtruck. it takes about a half an hour to get there and then Butch steps out. Let me tell you about Butch. Butch is itallian, but he's never been there and hes really from Pittson. he plays raquet ball on mondays, wednessdays, and thursdays for sure, and somtimes he even plays on the other days. he does compatitions and every year he compeats in the penn state compition. if there is no one at the gym to have a game with, he works out. usually his arms, but sometimes he does his legs too. on monday he towed a car right around plymoth meeting mall. after he was done towing us he was probly gonna head over to the gym. he is a Giants fan (being from NY and all) but when they arnt playing, he roots for the Eagles. he sugested we go to Eddie's diner (he pronounced it 80's...) becasue the guy who runs it is serian and has been cooking since he was eight.
well, we got to the ford dealership and unloaded the van from the truck and we bid farewell to Butch. I will probly never see that man again, but i know so much about him. that was the highlight of the trip. anyway, we went to eadie's and got food. it sucked very much. then we waited for about 2 hours for my aunt and uncle to come pick us up. it was bout 7:30 when they did. i got all my reading for school done tho.. that was good. anyway, we drove home. i went to sleep. then i had to go to school. it would have been fine if i didnt have to go to school, but i did. and i didnt get a ride because our car is in SCRANTON! and it will be untill monday.
and thats why i hate scranton.
