It's my street.

Well, for starters............I GOT MY CAR BACK! I'm so happy about that. My mom told me after school today that it wouldn't be ready until Monday. So naturally, when I left school, I was all mad and grouchy and pissed off. And I was also in a mad rush because I had to be at work at 4. Well, I got to work fine, but I was still mad about my car. So on my break, I drove down to the Breakaway Body Shop to see if maybe it was sitting outside or something. But no, no sign of my car anywhere. Well, John met me on break, and he told me he wanted to get a tattoo tonight. So after work, I just drove home to change clothes since I figured he would just come pick me up and we'd go to Greer for his appointment. Well, I called Anna on the way home, and I was all whiny and complaining about my car. But I noticed when I was about to pull into the driveway at home that my mom's rental car was nowhere to be seen. So I pulled into the driveway, and BAM. There was my car, sitting right there looking all brand-new. I was just so excited. Anna probably thought I was having a stroke or something, I was just freaking out. It looks great - new headlights, shiny rims, fresh paint - it's just awesome. And everything is right where it should be - my tassel, John's name tag, my cd's, my iPod adapter - it's just perfect!

Anyway, after I got over the initial excitement of getting my car back, Mom agreed to take me over to Naia's to meet up with John. I'm surprised she agreed to it, because it involved meeting Terri, and meeting new people makes my mom a little nervous - but in a cute way haha. But it was all cool. We didn't stay long though, since John had the tattoo appointment with Becca. So we left as soon as we could and drove over to Greer.

Well, on the way there, John had to stop by the ATM and take out the money for the tattoo, and he was freaking out because he was worried about being late. We didn't rush though. But on the way there, we were just driving on the interstate and all of a sudden there was a cop behind us, with his lights on. We actually got pulled over. The cop said John had swerved over the white line, and he was just making sure everything was ok. Luckily, he only gave John a warning. But regardless, John was all shaken up. Anyway, we found Becca's house with no problem. Well, it's actually not her house, but it's where she does her tattoo work. But there were cops all over her neighborhood, too. Needless to say, John and I were pretty nervous.

Once we got inside, we both relaxed a little. Becca brought out the stencil of John's tattoo - a star - and put it on his knee. She had to move it a little, but once she got it aligned just right, she got ready to do her work. John was pretty nervous about the whole thing. I was nervous for him, to a degree. But I knew he would be fine. Becca did a great job with the star. It's a small star on the scar on his right knee. It looks really cool. And I think he's really happy with it. Anyway, once she was finished, Becca cleaned up the tattoo and the skin around it, and she washed it and put moisturizer on it. But unfortunately, we couldn't stick around because I had to be home at 12. We didn't even get to go to Waffle House tonight, because it was 11:30 when we left and it takes about a half-hour to get to my house from Greer.

Anyway, I'm going to go to bed. I'm starving and I have to get up early tomorrow so I can take a shower and do a bunch of stuff before I go to work. I won't get much sleep tonight, but oh well. I'll just take a nap on break at work. Luckily I get off at 7. But the best thing about today was getting my car back. That just means so much to me. I feel like myself again.

Anyway, goodnight.
