Tonight Jasie and I were going to take my telescope in her El Camino and go to the Woodland cemetery since it's up on a secluded hill and is a good place to star gaze. We drove up there and the road looked just like the road in the beginning of Night of the Living Dead, and the cemetery was incredibly creepy. So we turned our asses around and went home. I was fine up there last night, but there were nine other people with me.
When we got home we put the telescope away and got in the truck to go to the Oakley skate park so we could run around there. I drove the truck and when we got closer to Oakley it started feeling weird and making weird noises. It suddenly jerked off the road and I pulled over quickly. I thought a tire had gone flat or something but there was nothing wrong with them. I decided to try to turn the truck around and drive slowly home. I turned it around and after a few feet it jerked again and then the back left tire got jammed and started skidding, so I pulled over again, put the hazard lights on and called mom. Mom got there and tried to drive it but it did it again so she just pulled off the road and we got into her car and went home. She left the truck keys and a note at the mechanic's and we're hoping we won't get a ticket for leaving the truck.
I'm just happy that it didn't happen when I was on the freeway or anything and that Jasie and I are okay. Also, I was very calm during the whole thing, so that's good. :)
I think I'm going to watch Doctor Who again.

And I guess this also explains why I haven't seen you around all night. Either way, I'm happy you're ok and hope you're having a better half of your night.
