PA, NJ, and DE in 3 days.

This is gonna be a long one.

So it has been an extremely eventful weekend.

It all started out on Friday when Skylar and i decided to go to New Jersey to see the Rangers play the Devils. We may be in a big hockey stage but its a sweet stage. So i wake at about 6:30 a.m. and couldn't get back to sleep. and i began to watch the Pursuit of happiness because i'm in a Will Smith stage and go about my morning routine. Since i had to go to Jersey I went to the gym at about 11 which isn't normal for me but whatever it was nice to get a morning lift in.  After the lift i pick up Nick from his final and he met up with some people to eat while i went home and showered to leave for Jersey. Got a sandwich and ate with Nick and Ben but nick kept telling me to wait making me later then I should have been because i needed to drop him of at the apartment.  
I drove to Milton and picked up Skylar and we proceded to drive to New Jersey with no Mapquest only the google maps on my phone. After 5 and a half hours of driving, ambient music and U-turns we arrived at Kait's house.  
Her Mom drove us to the train station where me and skylar encontered the funniest shit. Public fucking up is the first even we experenced when this lady walking fast trying to get around us weaved through us and ran into the wall dropping her purse and saying "ooooh" "oops" and skylar who is right behind her starts laughing at her making me laugh and the lad walked away as fast as she could. Then i saw a sign across the racks that said Bay Head and i Looked at skylar, pointed to the sign, and said "gay head" and we laughed a good while. then we would take the $8.75 train to Newark (Nickem i can see why you are from there...I't sucks). The train took about 45 minutes and i got to meet Kait. She was a little leery of me at first but we talked a good amount.
 We get off the train and walk through this big building to the the arena where we picked up our tickets on will call. The tickets were red foil tickets with the seats Suite 213 on it. Free $250 tickets we got and sat in the perfect seats. Free wraps, popcorn, chips and dip, water, (beer and wine for the adults), and pizza all for us.  
The rangers were down 3 to 1 when we got there.  then it was 4 to 1, 5 to 1, and me being a rangers fan (because of my mom but not a bigger fan than the Penguins) I started to get a little pissed. We got some food at the concession stand adding up to $13.75 because she forgot to charge me for the drink and only for the Cheese-steak and Fries. Skylar and Kait paid 19.25 for theirs because they got charged for the drinks. I guess it was good luck. 
The game went to the third period where the rangers started coming back one goal at a time and tied it up. I was stoked because even if they didn't pull ahead we would still get to see some overtime play. Just my luck the devils came back scoring 3 points with only 4 shots. Oh well it helps the Pens out if the rangers lose.  
We both stole shit from the box suite like plates, programs, and some sterno. We left and got into her dads car and left the arena.  He dad was a crazy fucking driver.  With his turbo(ed) mazda 3 speed was weaving and speeding through traffic. riving 80-90 on the parkway it was a fun ride.  
We get back to Kait's and hung out there for a while meeting some of her friends and this chick Kat who was just at a sex toy party so i asked her a bunch of questions about it.  The movie Freddy got fingered came on so me and Skylar got so stoked because we love that movie even though it was edited it was still hilarious.  Kait brought up some message over myspace that Colin had sent to her but it wasn't really colin it was the guys at the shop sending her a message on colins name because he left him self signed on.  Then chris sent her a message saying it was me so i had to straighten that up. now i know why she was leery of me in the beginning.  It started getting late so we headed out. after a fun night we were on our way home and i knew where i was going so it didn't take that long. 
We are just about to enter PA when my Temperature gauge light comes on. Pulled over and called my dad. he said as long as i'm not over heating i'm okay.  we drove into PA and got to Mile 260 when i started to over heat. Pulled over and called dad again. said to drive, pull over, cool down and drive. till i got to a gas station and got some anti freeze.  I made it to a Pilot and put anti freeze in. That shits expensive. Started driving again and right away my temp went right back up. Pulled over looked in the coolant tank and i had nothing. We needed to call a tow truck. I wasn't pissed because we were having a good time. the only part that sucked was the cold.  we waited about 45 minutes and the tower got there.  He was a douche.  He was all pissed off because AAA told him I was paying cash and i never said that. I fell asleep on him by accident and he woke me up pushing me off of him.  That was awkward.  Stayed awake the rest of the time and got back to the garage where my day met up with us and paid the guy $245.00 for the tow.  
Went back to my house just to play NHL for a little because we needed to meet mikey at noon-ish and we wanted to go to the mall.  We left for the mall at 8:30 in the morning. I got Gears 2 but they didn't have the t-shirt i was looking for.  Went to Skylars for some Hockey jerseys and headed back to my place for a shower and to go to mikeys.  got in mikes car with our Super Big Gulp cups from 7 eleven and while he drove we slept. Picked up emma and headed for maryland.  Couldn't sleep much in his car. To small for me.  
Got to maryland after forever and met some dudes from the area that were cool.  got good food at a local restaurant.  the show was a typical show.  A lot of fun. I really enjoyed every band especially architect. The show ended and we waited for skylar to finish talking to people, Nick to finish everything he does, and for Dustin to decide where we were eating before we could depart.  
We ended up eating at a Denny's in Ocean City MD.  I was stoked to be at the beach in winter and i really wanted to see the ocean in winter.  After i ate my Slamwhich and Pancake Puppies, we went to the beach to find cold sand, cold wind and a cold breeze. I was stoked to be there but it got cold quick. 
We left and went to dustins house so Sky could get a vinyl and i think mikey was getting a little pissed because he wanted to go home but we didn't take to long.  I tried sleeping but couldn't till about 2 hours away from home. I woke up outside Danville and stayed awake the rest of the way. Got home, drove to skylars and dropped him off, and proceeded home. 
I immediately went to bed to sleep 12 hours from 8a.m. till 8 p.m. to my parents fight about the car situation. It was annoying because not only do i not have a car for a little i got shit for my car breaking. oh well. 
I went to the shop hung there for a while and skylar came in for a tattoo. we went to my house to grab NHL and drop my car (jeep) off. We went to his house, played NHL (I won 2 of 3 games) then i started blogging and this is where i am now.
I had an AMAZING weekend.
Long days and car drives.
Totally worth it.
