It Was Almost The End
Some of ya may remember I tried to go to Spokane a couple weeks ago. I had to take the 10am Greyhound and I stayed up all night, because I like sleeping during the long bus trip. Then, to my dismay, I took a quick "nap" at 6am only to end up sleeping in and missing the stupid bus.
This weekend I decided to make another go of it and go back to the Espo (that is my new slang for Spokane don't hate).
This time I decided to catch the 11pm bus, just so I didn't have to stay up the entire night. Staying up all night gets pretty boring and tiring around 4 or 5am.
The ride was goin' as peaceful as two doves flying through beautiful clouds. The lights was down and everyone was sleepin', since it is an all night bus ride. Alla sudden I sit up in my seat, and look out the front window cuz the driver is pullin' over onto the side of the road.
This was at like 4am. The driver jumped up and asked if everyone was ok. He looked hella shook. He called the cops and said their was a crazy drunk driver driving the wrong way down the freeway. Apparently we almost got in a head-on with him but our sick-with-the-driving-skillz bus driver was able to swerve out the way.
Dude was goin thru anxiety attacks. Not that I blame him, we almost got in a head-on! It musta been super close cuz I mean he was shook. He walked around outside for like 15 minutes. Then he went to every person on the bus and made them say, "Yes I'm ok," while lookin' into his eyes.
Then he walked around outside for another 10 minutes and we was back on our way.
It's kind of a crazy concept...an entire bus full of heads almost died or got hurt and, since we was all fast asleep, none of us even knew it. On the other hand, I guess that would be a pretty good way to go...in your sleep.
I would put up some pic to go along with this post but damn, I guess it is kind of an eerie, deathly post and I really am not feelin' putting up a pic of The Grim Reaper or a tombstone or something.
In fact I feel obligated to end this with somethin' cheery. So here is a good conversation I overheard between two cats who work at MOViN 92.5.
