So we satrted the weekend off right. Got in the car and headed out around six am, made good time got to St. Louis around eleven.
Then things went sideways.
Navy Ghosts car died a horrible nagging death on the bridge, we just made it off the ramp to a relatively benign location. hen we sat around for a couple hours waiting on a tow. Fortunately K came through for us and found us a good mechanic/tow service, then we got to hang out and enjoy good coffee and pumpkin bread.
We got ahold of the haunted Campers soon after that and they came to pick us up and take us on to Kreepfest. After a long ordeal with the car we finally got moving again. Afew hours later we arrived in harrisonville.
We could have asked for a better place to stay though...Pickle is a good friend..practically family really, but the man needs to learn how to clean. I swear I have seen cleaner landfills. I don't understand how his wife deals with it but i guess she has adjusted. Evil is pretty cool though, and she's a lot of fun at partys.
So I got to spend the weekend hanging out with my Haunt Family, well a lot of them anyway. We missed Mooch and bill who were doing home repair work, and C couldn't be there due to a float trip(most unfortunate that I was looking forward to spending time with her). But we had Metalhead, Bratt, evilizbeth, Pickle, Duck, Squekerbone, Darkman, Peanut, Mrs Peanut, the Haunted Campers, plus several others.
The movie Friday was Psycho Beach Party...so messed up. The party Saturday was great, lot's of drunken antics/flirtations and fun. then the annoying overkill of alchohol and offerings to the porcelain deity's which was not so awesome.
Then we came back this way Sunday. The trip was rather uneventful really...we drove into St. Louis and stopped to make final arrangements for the car. K stopped by to say hello and hang for a few minutes. me being silly forgot to give her the item I had picked up for her at Kreepfest so now I'll have to mail it to her.
We pulled into Evansville late in the evening then waited for our ride. J the new gal in my life was pretty rockstar about it, she came to pick us up and we got home alright. Poor Navy had to turn around and head back though our friend Aa was only available to take him out there to tow his car back Monday morning. So we dropped him off at about 1:00am and he got picked up at around 3:00am. I would actually have prefered to ride back with them and help take care of all that...not to mention it would give me a chance to see K again, which would have been nice and then I wouldn't have to mail the item to her. But I kind of felt obligated to spend time with J after she came all that way to pick us up, it would have been a little rude to turn around and decide I was heading back out again.
All in all it's was a fun weekend although not as relaxing as I had hoped. I am looking forward to doing it again next year, although next time we are going to look into a hotel or something, that's house was just too damn filthy.
