Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving Day…. Me and my family leave for Mississippi around 7:00 o'clock this morning. It wouldn't have been so bad if I wasn't told to get up at 5:30 to be ready by 6:00 so that we could leave. Anyway, I left Candela the night before around 2:30, maybe a little later. I got back to the dorms around 3:00. I was on the phone with Robert when I started packing for later that morning. I was done around 3:30. I was knocked out for the next two hours. When I got up, I swear I felt like I had just laid down. Ah well. I thought that I would be able to just go to sleep all the way there, but no. I ended up driving from Memphis all the way to Marks, MS. And the trip over all? It was cool. 'except for having to wait on people.. and wait on people… and listening to little kids crying …and crying. But other than that, it was great!!! Lol. See, this is what happened. Once I had settled in at one of my cousin's house on Thursday, my family decided they'd sleep at another cousin's house and wait to go shopping until the next day to go to the mall or anything. So…. On Friday, I get up around 11 a.m. Well, my cousin Jeffrey woke me up 'cause apparently my mom had been calling all morning saying, "We're leaving now, we're leaving now." But they never did. So… My aunt came home and she drove me over to my other cousin's house, where my family was. We get over there and we finally leave to go to the mall from there. My dad decides he doesn't want to go with us to the mall, so we figure since the mall we were going to was in Memphis, he could chill with my uncle who lives in North Memphis. So my aunt calls my uncle to make sure he'll be there by the time we get there, and he's like, "aight. I'll be therr." So… we drive over there in like an hour and a half, and guess who isn't there? Yeah, exactly. So we call again and he said he was on his way. So we wait. And we wait. And we wait. I think we waited for about an hour and a half. WTF. He never showed. So then we called one of my cousins and he said he would come get my dad @ the mall. So we get to mall, and guess what? They all decide to stay!?? Did I miss something? We waited around for almost two hours for absolutely nothing!! Whatever. And in addition to the waiting, we have all of my cousin's babies everywhere screamin' and yellin' and crying….. omg. I thought I was gonna shoot myself. This really makes me question whether or not I want kids in the future. I mean, I know I've got tons of time to think about something that significant, but on the real. I don't know, man. And depending on what career I have, the career my significant other has, who says we'll really have the time to "invest" in kids. Crap. I'm tired of thinking. L8er.
