Life has no smooth road for any of us; and in the bracing atmosphere of a high aim the very roughness stimulates the climber to steadier steps, till the legend, over steep ways to the stars, fulfills itself.

I'm so angry. Let's start this off by saying that I have done nothing but work all week. I came home from yet another on call shift, which i don't mind at all, i need the hours. Ruqia wanted to go out for a while, have a few drink, some nachos and chicken wings. I was exhausted from having such a long day and while aprt of me wanted to stay home i still wanted to come out and enjoy what was left of the day.

We arrived at the pub at 9:30, my dad needed the car by 10:30. I was trying to remain conscious of the time. So i was a little uptight. The very first thing the twins do when we enter pub 101 is go back to get a smoke. Sarah' getting irritated and complaining to me about how hungry she s and how badly she just wanted to go somewhere else. Finally the twins come back and expect to order food. I'm like "it's already 9:30 there's not enough time to order and eat food" apparently this was grounds for what would later be referred to as me "killing the mood".

So they rushed to finnish their drinks despite the fact that I told them they could continue to drink but there would simply be no time to order anything to eat. It took much to long to get there and no one could even make up their minds as to where they wanted to go. we ended up at pub 101, which sarah and i both hate, and left within half an hour.

We get in the car and Sarah's already in a terrible mood. The traffic is even worse as we leave down town. We finally leave the downtown area and the twins begin to complain that they need to pee. The complaints soon turn to whines. I swear they were like friggin children. We get off the highway to drop off ruqia's friend, and of course a cop stops us! Apparently our license plate isn't visible enough. Luckily we don't get a ticket but we do get a warning. Oh and did i mention that we were extremely stressed because when he asked for sarah license and the car's registration, it turned out that our registration was expired? Joy!

So the cop disappears for a while back to his car an the twin take it upon themselves to mention yet again that they need to pee!! Really is this the time and place for such things???
