Alright guys, I'm back from vacation and it's time share the joy of my trip. For those just joining us, I went on vacation last week with my friends to Gulf Shores (Orange Beach, actually, but who cares?) and I wanted to give you a lttle taste of what the experience was like. Thankfully I remembered to write alot of the events down. Here goes:

Ok, Spankies here we come. I'm so excited, I get the free beer because Tim is already in Alabama. Sweet!..............wait, we are leaving as soon as Spankies is over.....I can't drink! #@%$!!!!

02:00am
Well this is sucking. I'm ready to go, Dell's a little tipsy, and Tommy won't stop playing. Oh good, here come the drunk people! Of course you can get up and sing Wonderwall, why not? I'll tell ya why, cause you're all losers!!!!
02:30am
Ok finally we can get moving. I'm gonna drive Dell to the house while Spencer waits on the Spankies check so we can load up. Alright, I'm home. Dell hops out and I stop........I don't have a house key. I gave it to Bethany so she can watch the cat (Corrado, Ooh Goo, Barry Gibb) while we're gone and Spencer now has the only key. Calling Spencer...........he's still waiting on the check.....crap!!!!
03:00am-04:00am
Finally!! Spence is here and we can get inside. Okay changing clothes, packing up the car......this is taking longer than I thought.......Last minute things, say bye to kitty, tell him I miss him (he doesn't care). Spencer and Dell are arguing about the Jimbe (like a bongo drum) and whether we should take it (we don't). And away we go!!
04:00am
Alright! We are on the road. Dell is resting in the backseat, Spencer is beside me relaxing, and I am driving. I am so ready to go, man! I'm gonna drive this X-Terra all the way to the freaking sandbar! No stopping me now!!
04:40am
I've never been so tired in my entire life! I can't go on, I've got to sleep a little. If I keep driving I'll kill us all. I tell Spencer that. He decides to take over. Ah gentle passenger seat. How soft and warm. I close my eyes.........
08:00am
I open them up. Just past Birmingham. Awesome. I don't think Spencer is happy with me. Ready for some breakfast. Hey, a Shoney's sign!! We gotta stop here. I never get to have the fabled Shoney's breakfast bar! Alright........where's the Shoney's? Driving around.....there isn't one? Then why is there a sign??? That's one of the stupidest things ever (something I will think many times on this trip)! Okay okay, Crackerbarrel then. MMMMMMM....hashbrown casserole. Coffee!
09:00am-12:30pm
Well it's my turn to drive again. Spence is gonna sleep awhile in the back and Dell is my navigator........
12:30pm
Did I just see a Casino?!? I'm waking Spence up to tell him. He wants to stop. I'm not going to. He's mad.
01:00pm
Okay, off the intersate and I need some gas. Spence is driving now. At this point Spencer and I realize that we have no headphones for our ipods. Hey, a Wal-Mart! What are the odds? Okay we got some headphones and now......Spencer wants a headband? Across the street to the sporting goods store! One white headband bought and we are on our way.
01:30pm
Finally in Orange Beach! Off to the grocery store. I needs some hotpockets!
02:00pm
Groceries bought. God bless Winn Dixie! And here we are!!!! Our home for the next 5 days!
Okay if the beginning is any indication to you what it was like, just wait for part 2. These are long and take a while, so I'm splitting them up. The next part is coming soon!! See-ya!
