Confessions of a Lucky Traveler

Hey ya’ll. I know I said I wouldn’t be posting often but I had one crazy day so I thought I’d let you all partake in the story….enjoy
So I was almost late to my train today/yesterday but by the grace of God I made it cause the train was 5 minutes late….but it turned out if I had been even later, the train still would have been there because some passenger got unruly and the cops had to arrest her! Anyway I thought it was going well until in Bakersfield a woman started having a seizure/nervous breakdown I’m not sure which, and the train had to stop, go back to the station and drop her off. As a result we were 1 hour late leaving Bakersfield, and because of that, we had to make way for all of the southbound train traffic….so we ended up chillin on the side tracks pretty often waiting as trains whizzed by us. To make a long story short I got into Fresno 1 ½ hours late. But in all honesty I cant really complain cause if I had missed the train in the first place I would have had to have left tomorrow/today.
Guess what I miss already? Yea that’s right. Mario Party. I am chillin on the comp at 12midnight and everyone is asleep and I have no one to battle with until 3am! Yea I feel a withdrawal coming on. As a matter of fact, my family has no game systems but a play station 1. man this sucks! I am going to have to live in a household for a week with no form of mind-numbing entertainment…..i thought lent was ending on Sunday!!! But look at me, Ive been home for a grand total of 2 hours and Im already complaining about how much I miss stupid stuff….Im an idiot.
The family is looking well, we had such a cool hang out time right when I got back, we talked about the most random stuff ever and were laughing our butts off. For example, an idea that came to yours truly, was the idea of Bail Insurance…..people pay a monthly fee and in the unfortunate incident of their indictment, we would be there to bail them out. Man, we were laughing so hard over that….and then my brother in law got the cool idea of selling it in bars to people who would be getting DUIs that night…..this was when we realized how corrupt it actually would be. People would be saying “Driving drunk officer? I didn’t know I couldn’t do that! I have bail insurance!” haha good times. (I apologize if it doesn’t sound that funny, but just think about it. In case you get in jail, you’re safe cause you’ll get bailed out?? That’s crazy.)
It’s cool, Im getting to see my brother who’s in the seminary up outside of sac town. That’s pretty cool. And my other brother brought back his new girlfriend, and she seems really cool as well. All in all, I’m having a blast here in Fres-town and I’m missin all you guys down in socal. Hope all are well and I hope you guys have an awesome Easter Sunday! Im gonna sign off Ron burgundy-style,
“You stay classy, Irish Joe’s friends!”
