Being Impulsive

So I meant to post earlier, but I got so caught up in things, that I kept putting it off and off. Well, today, I spent my Saturday as leisurely as I could. I still had to attend class, but I survived for that one hour. My next stop was to take care of my shoe problem at the shoe store, but I’ll talk about that later. When that was taken care of (and also resulting in my buying two more pairs of shoes), I treated myself to a nice pedicure. When I got home, I realized that I have no shoe space. I am completely out of shoe space despite my already putting two shoe racks on top of one another. In order to accommodate my new shoes, I started cleaning out my bookcases. As I was cleaning that out, I realized that I have a bunch of textbooks and school papers that I honestly don’t need with me anymore, so I put those in bags. I then realized that it was a rather large pile and that I wouldn’t be able to carry it home, so I got the impulsive idea that I would drive my things back home.
I chose a relatively good weekend since my parents and brother are currently on a cruise and I thought that I could slip into my house, drop off my things, and then leave. I had to do this because I know that they would not approve of me driving such a long distance all by myself, so it’s much easier this way. I rented and loaded the car and was on my way to go. When I got to my parents’ home, I realized that a few things had changed in the last month. First of all, the outhouse now has a bed (for who to sleep in, I don’t know) and that the things we used to store in there have been moved to either the garage or inside the house. Second, my dad became super paranoid and decided to lock two bedrooms, one of which doesn’t contain too many valuable items. Knowing my dad, I knew that he didn’t leave the keys behind, which was a bummer since one of the rooms I needed to get into was my old room. It made sense to me to put my old books in my old room since I still have quite a few of my boxes in there. I could have hidden my things easily, but since he locked it, I had to resort to sticking my things in the shed.
I thought that it was only going to take a total of three hours to get it all done, but instead, I decided to call up my friend C, who I had been talking to earlier in the day. We both admitted that we missed each other and couldn’t wait to spend time together again, so I thought that this would be a perfect time to do it. We caught the last showing of The Other Boleyn Girl and then drove up a hill to take a good overhead view of the city. We had a good time together and it was nice spending the time with him since I hadn’t been able to do so in so long.
The drive back to my apartment was relatively uneventful. I made an hour trip into forty minutes, but it was much easier to do so with a lot less cars on the road. Now I’m tired and I really just want to have a nice lazy Sunday morning. Good night all!

Wow, you rented a car? That must have been expensive! It sucks that your Dad locked the rooms, you’d think he would provide you with a key to your own room if you ever decides to do things like that heh. I’m glad you made it back safely!
