The Misadventures of Ian in the States: Day 3; Pool parties Suck, and double dates rule

28/June/2006



Ok this will only be a short blog entry. But there was supposed to be a pool party round my cousin's house where Stacy was going to go, so I asked if I can be invited and they let me, thing was, barely anyone showed up. Stacy's little sister got into the pool but started to complain about the water being too cold; and because of this Stacy didn't go in. So yeah, a one man pool party isn't cool.


As for that I met the Pretcher twins again, but this time they made up for their first appearance and did their best to look like this time, heh. We went shopping in the mall for a bit and then we had some Pizza and Smernof at a bar. It was pretty cool, much better then the first time I met up with them. Anyways here's a new score tally.




Stacy 7/10 (down for being such a wuss about cold water)


Girl at BestBuy 7/10(Unchanged, I havn't seen her yet)


Lindsey and Rachel (the twins) 7/10 (up for a good time!)

The Misadventures of Ian in the States: Day 2; Women

27/June/2006


A Fellow podcaster told me before I went to the states that when I start talking to the girls and women there, they'll be drop their panties at me; Lol. Whats funny is that's a truth, in the country where not a lot is really different, where there's only about 2 or 3 different accents, if you have a different tongue, women scream in excitement, lol.



Stacy:


I've known Stacy for a bit now as I met her 2 years ago, but this young lady is fine... A lil' petite girl with a pretty face, a fine figure and an increbelly cute voice. I didn't get to see her very much on Tuesday because she had to work at 3pm CST. Still, it doens't mean I was down, at least I got to see her for a little, a lil' oggling doesn't hurt, lol.



Girl working at BestBuy:


Now this was pretty funny, after visiting Stacy, me and my cousin went to BestBuy to go and buy a game and a new set of earphones for my iPod. When I got to the checkout I wanted to know the price of this game that had no price tag on it. When I asked this girl about what the price is, I saw her go into a state of excitement, then blushing, and my cousin told me that she likes me, what was funny was that I think he was right. I Followed the girl over to another checkout to find out the price and we started to talk. First off it was geek talk about the game, Gradius Collection, not quite the first thing you talk about to make a first impression, however that was changed very quickly into where I lived, what I do, and how I was liking my vacation. Luckly there wasn't a queue building up behind me and we must've talked for about 10 minutes before I actually bought the damn game. She was kinda cute though, even though she was a member of the GeekSquad. She was about the same height as Stacy, but has dark blond hair and wore glasses. But it doesn't mean the glasses made her look bad, they actually suited her. So that was kinda cool.


Twins of a Pastor:


Before I got to the States, my Step Mum email me saying that she was going to hook me up with these twins from this pretcher. First off, Pretcher, yes you're reading that right "PRETCHER". You know those crazy people who force religion on people. Well, My dad was telling me how attractive these girls were, so before I went to meet them, I did my best to look (and smell) good; I took some chololates with me because I reccon that they would like, and I went over to meet them. Well... What can I say, could my Dad be lying to me? There I saw a pair for girls with buck teeth, scrappy t-shirts, and had this weird accent that sounded like a cross bettween a goofy and dorky voice. I Just kept telling myself that I should be a gentleman and do my best not to say anything bad. But they were pretty much oggling over me as if I would to Stacy, lol. They really didn't make a good impression to me, but maybe I could be friends with them, but... I'm scared shit of their dad.


So what can I say, should I score these girls? lol, I know it sounds bad, but every guy in their own concinous have a rate to the girls who they meet. so here's the scores...



Stacy: 9/10

Girl at Best Buy: 7/10

Twins of the Pretcher: 3/10


So there, send me hate mail if you must, but you'll discover that EVERY man is like this, lol.

The Misadventures of Ian in the States: Day 1; traveling there, whoopee...

26/June/2006


Bus:


Instead of bearing my mother whine about another road trip on the M25 I took a bus to Heathrow. As I'm clear, the bus tickets have my destinantion printed on them. Well... The freaking Bus driver took my ticket and "assumed" that I was going to Luton airport despite that fact that it clearly said on my ticket "London Heathrow, Terminal 4". He then assumed that I was going to Heathrow Terminal 1 when when I told him I was going to terminal 4 he starts to get all angry with me and I start waving the boarding pass at him to prove how much of an illiterate prick he is. Not my fault, he can't read >:( .



Airport:


Well... I got there early, no Queuing, yay! BUt it doesn't nessercerally mean it's a good thing. When I got to the baggage check, I was served by this 5'2 ginger curly haired meditrian woman who can't read english! ARGH! Do you see a trend here?! When it came to giving out an address to where I was going, she couldn't read it, so I had to tell her how to spell it, she can type it fine, but she couldn't read my mother's handwriting, which is weird because my Mum's writing is much more clearer and less messy then mine. So there I was for a good 30 minutes reading out each frigging letter in the address and I was a little pissed off.



Plane:


After Staying awake for almost 24 hours, I got on the plane, and I slept for good 3 hours. That's the longest time I've slept on a plane! Thing was, I had some chewing gum in my mouth and I had to get rid of it and there was nowhere to put it. so I tried to stick it under the seat. A few hours later and the lady behind me called out a steward because chewwing gum was all over her foot, She took her fucking shoes off didn't she!. So I kept quiet, very... quiet.



2nd Leg:


The Plane Landed 30 mins late and I was screwed because I only had about 30 minutes to get on the next plane. Useally all my tickets are given to me at the check in. However the Meditrian woman with bad eye sight didn't give me every ticket; she had only given me a boarding pass for the first plane. So there I was, standing in this queue that hardly moved and I almost heckled at the check in staff because they were taking forever. I finally got my ticket, and I went into the terminal, to dicover that every I had was setting of the metal dectector alarms. There I was taking my coat, my belt, my shoes, my wallet, and my freaking watch off in front of an iraid crowd of people who wanted to go on their plane, thing was they didn't realise that I had the same problem! Despite being late I managed to get on my second plane with my shoe laces undone and my belt around my shoulder.



Landing:


I Fin ally got to ST Louis, saw my Dad and my little half sister, at that time I thought the worse was over. Oh I was so very wrong!!! My Bags didn't appear on the carosal. We waited for a good hour until we went to an office to make a complaint. They said that they will send my bags by delivery the next Morning. THEY BETTER DO!



27/June/2006


I got at bags, a few hours late, but I got them, so good for that!

So I asked her to spell it, andf I got D-E-S-D-E-G-N-E-R; and as you can tell I really don't know! I just told the lady that we didn't have anything like that and she got into a huff because she bought the from us, o.... k.... then you weird bitch.
