Saturday night, I got off work at 10. After a long 8 hour day with the asshole customers and jerk coworkers, I decided that I needed to be with people I actually liked. I called one of my friends, Patrick (http://www.ubersite.com/cgi-bin/message_get.cgi?user_id=4875), and asked him what was up. He said they were sitting in the parking lot of Ashley's appartment trying to think of something to do. I told him to call me when they made a decision.
I went home and changed real quick, told my mom that I was leaving. Then I went back up to work to get a coffee (I work at McDonald's, as a manager). Not the smartest thing to do, since I hated it there, but 90 cents for some good coffee and free refills, so who's complaining? I was sitting at my table drinking my coffee, when my phone rang again. Caller ID said it was Lee (http://www.ubersite.com/cgi-bin/message_get.cgi?user_id=5530), from his cell phone. Well, I answered. It was actually Matt (http://www.ubersite.com/cgi-bin/message_get.cgi?user_id=4627). I asked him what was up, and he told me to come rescue them.
Rescue who? Well, it turns out that Patrick locked Matt, Andrew, and Lee in his car and turned the alarm on so they couldn't get out. They've been sitting there for like an hour. Pat was sitting in Dana's car with Ashley, Milo, Dana, and Dawn, trying to think of something to do. So I said that I would come rescue them, got a refill on my coffee, and went to my car. It was then I realized that I had no idea where they were. So I called Lee's phone, and they said they were still in Ashley's parking lot. So I said I'd be there in less than 20 minutes. It was then I realized that I had no idea how to get to Ashley's apartment. So I called them back. They gave me directions, and I took off.
To truly understand a part of this story, you need to understand the layout of Ashley's apartment. It's located on an alley behind a car dealer. The alley is only wide enough for a small car to fit through, so if you don't have a small car, you're shit out of luck. Luckily, I have a Ford Tempo, so my car fit well.
When I finally got to the alley, I turned my lights off and proceeded very slowly. I finally got to the parking lot, and pulled up behind Pat's car, and started honking. Matt was the first to get out of Pat's car. Next was Andrew, and then Lee was last. Matt reached my car, opened the passenger door, and threw the seat forward. Andrew arrived next, but he's a big guy, so he didn't want to get in first. Lee came to the door, and Andrew and Matt tossed him into the back. Litteraly. Andrew dived in, Matt threw the seat back, and before he even got seated, I slammed on the gas and peeled out. All the while, the five in the other car are just staring at us. We head for our favorite restaraunt, Friday's, and laugh about the situation that just took place.
Then we had a good idea. We have this little inside joke, and it's "gg no re k thx." It actually stands for "good game, no redos, okay thanks." We have Lee call Milo's cell phone, and the only thing he says, is "gg no re k thx" and then hung up. It might not seem funny to you, but it was to us.
We arrive at Friday's, where we are regulars, and notice that there is a new manager. We call him over to us, and ask him about which store he came from etc etc. Then he says about how he heard of a group of really cool guys that leave fat tips. That's us. How awesome is it that we are known and talked about when we're not there? It's pretty frickin awesome.
Milo calls us a few minutes later. We tell him we're at Friday's if they would like to join us, but he says no, that they're at Max and Erma's, another restaraunt. Which happens to be right across the street. HA! We HAD to. After enjoying our meal, we drive over next to Pat's car, and leave a sign on his winsheild. "GG NO RE K THX." Later, we learn from Milo that Pat thought it was a word scramble. Funny stuff.

Bart: I'll take up smoking and give that up.
Homer: Good for you, son. Giving up smoking is one of the hardest
things you'll ever have to do. Have a dollar.
