Stood Up

Ok, every year I look forward to a call from my old friend about our annual camping trip. Last night I got it. We'll usually get together and hit the water, do some kayaking, fishing, get shittered and have a blast. He was stoked as usual, when he called, and had a killer plan. He get me all excited, and told me,"Dude. Get your shit together. It's happening!"

After almost dropping my phone in the toilet with excitement, I ran out to the garage to get all my shit packed. Kayak, check. Oars, check. Sleeping bag, check. Rucksack, check. Liquor, pills, buds, check check check.

"I'm fucking ready, my dude, let's roll." I told him.
"Ok fucker - I'll be there at 8am to pick your drunk ass up."
-- "I'll be out front butthole...hugs" I proclaimed..
"You too"

So, I wake up at 6:30 this morning like a effin' kid at Christmas, smoked a fat bowl to relax, flipped on some cartoons, and ---- and I have been just sitting here since......

No call....not nothin...at least not yet.
What the fuck, Ness? You total wang. You stood me up.

Anyone else ever been stood up? Wanna cheer me up with some of your "stood up" stories? How about a third question that I can't think of? Let's talk.
 
Dude don't sweat it, it happens. We used to plan floats down the Clackamas, everyone would agree "yeah lets get on the water like 9-10" shiiiit, we never , ever made that mark, not once, usually it ended up being like 1-2 cause everyone decided to get smashed the night before. The being stood up part doesn't surprise me, you flipped on some cartoons? unless you got kids, how old are you?
 
I'd be a little concerned lol. Does he usually go ape shit stoked over something then just BAM like it never happened?

He's a responsible dude. I would like to think he would of been compelled to at least call. But, I've been trying to play it cool just in case something fucked happened...but...well, you know how it goes. I'll probably call his GF in a bit if he doesn't answer my texts. I have a feeling she's probably got him chained to a radiator somewhere, and he's just to embarrassed to say. Still though. Eff that.

I'll never tell. But, my kid is turning 6 this year. We like to watch Invader Zim together after breakfast.
 
Is it sad that I'm pretty sure I've pieced together your exact age by spending so much time here?


Not sad. I'd be impressed. I'll never act my age. Growing up is stupid anyways. I still love playing music too much. I still love blacking out - waking up not knowing what I did last night, finding out and thinking "that was cool". I might be an adult, but I'm a minor at heart.
 
He's been sat at the kurb since 8 waiting for your drunk ass to get out the door.
Spent some dough on a camera system for the house last year, and I've got the camera feed piped right to the bigscreen in the living room. I had the driveway picture-in-picture'd during cartoons all morning. Nothing. Only a few horny squirrels barking at each other...

I think I fall under the same category lol. I'm a bit younger than you, but I feel that way today. Those are the kinds of friends I want. Not irresponsible ones, just ones that don't cloud their character with some frontal illusion of grown up.

I'm pretty sure I'll be chugging beers, kissing joints, blacking out by camp fires, jamming out, making vulgar jokes, and trolling people all throughout my entire life. Elderly or not. lol
 
About to leave a shitty message on his Gf's phone. She hates my guts so this should be fun. What should I tell her? Should I be a dick? I feel like being a dick.

If you choose the dickish route I would put some passive aggressive in the Dick just in case something horrible happened and you wont feel like such a scumbag that your life spirals completely out of control from the guilt of that one phonecall untill all you have left to your name is 2 pennies and a pocket full o lint kid.

This is why I keep you around. That totally makes sense. I should play nice until I find out he bailed on me to get his knobber slobbered or something lame like that...I just hope he's not dead or in jail, the cunt..
 
That's what I was thinking.

Back in the day there was this kid who was a lame tweeker, you know the guy...the one you give $1 to walk over to the 7-11 and grab you a tallboy..

Anyways he kept bitching his dad locked him out and wouldn't answer the phone and being the bone smoker I am I said he's probably dead....He Was!

Good thing he wasn't a friend for real or I would be reminded of it every time I saw his sad ass face.
 
I fucking hate being stood up Pin, but at least give him the benefit of the doubt..as Urban said it would be horrible if something bad happened to him and he couldn't let ya know.
