library fiasco, and other various unknowns


so yesterday, me hannah and abbie went to the down town library! and hannah, was going to find a bus rout for us to get home on, cause me and abbie don't know how to take the bus or trax or anything. so after a fun afternoon at the library, we decide to leave, and it's about six 'o clock. and we get on the east bound trax, right outside of the library. at first everything's going fine, but then we notice we're going really really slow up a hill, and cars are passing us. then we smell something burning, and we see smoke comming out from under the train. the lights start to flicker, and the train lurches a few times before comming to a shaky stop, right in the middle of an intersection. the driver's voice comes over the radio, but that seems to be broken and all i can make out is that another train, west bound, was going to pick us up, and take us back to the library, then it would take us east again. ugh. so we wait a few min, then the other train comes. only problem is that it's already basically full. but we manage to squeeze our passengers in too. then we start going west again, but it seems the plans changed once again, because all the wes bound passengers got on another train, and we stayed on, so we didn't have to go back as far. finally it seems we're on the right track, and we'll make it home in no time, and everything will run smoothly from here on out, but that was not the case.


the trax drop us off at our stop, then me and abs fallow hannah to the place where the bus will take us the rest of the way home. but we see the bus, and it passes right by us. it turns out this is not the right stop. we look around for one, and we find one that hannah says is the right one, and after waiting for like ten more min, with no bus, hannah calls to find out where the bus will pick us up. we think we found the right place, and walk another block to the stop. we get there, and we see bus after bus stop there, but not our bus. hannah calls again, and the last bus had already left. uuuuuugh!! we're all hot, tired and thirsty, and it's now 7:45. we call abbie's mom, and she can come pick us up. woo. and we finally made it home at around 8:15. what a fiasco. but there were some good things about it. like:

~there were some way hot skaters on the trax with us that kept looking over at us
~out of boredom, me and abbie had a spitting contest, just like old times. but she totally beat me. she's been practicing or something i swear.
~me and abbie had a slap fight but i won, as always lol.
~um that's pretty much all
