Stories
All of these stories are true. They are told mostly from my life
with my friends. No names have been changed, no protection. Just don't
tell
FRANKENBERRY
We were all at a party at Jason's house. Me, Jason, Daniel Welch, CJ,
Adam, Stacey, Michael Timmer, Megan, Alexis and all these other people that I didn't know. It took Adam, Stacey, and Michael a while to get there, Katie and
I were worried about them, b/c they had gone to a bad part of town to
get some party supplies. But they showed up okay. Katie had promised Adam
that she would stay straight that night, so she didn't drink or do anything
else that night. Being the designated driver, I did the same. But she and
I had fun watchin all the other people acting stupid. She and I talked
about how she liked Jason, and she was worried that he would not like her.
I spent most of the party talking to Katie. At the time, I had a crush on
her, but I wanted her to be happy, and she liked Jason, so I tried to help
but it didn't really work out. Anyway, back the main story. Well, everyone
was doin all kinds of crazy shit there. Katie and I had been eating out
of a box of FRANKENBERRY Cereal. Some people there were talking about how
they had been snorting ritalin. Everyone thought it was stupid though. Then
Katie and I got the same idea at the same time. I grabbed a straw she got
her ID Card, and we ran to the bathroom with the Frankenberry Cereal. We
smashed it up pretty well. And put it into several lines.Other people had
come in to see what we were doing. Katie told me that I should go first, so I did. I
put the straw in my nose and snorted a line of Frankenberry. It felt pretty
cool, but it didn't really do anything other than make me laugh alot. Then
Katie did one herself. We were both crackin up and everyone else was telling
us how stupid we were. Jason ran a line, but said "There's nothin in it"
and was basicly a party pooper. But Katie and I still think it is funny.
We have a running joke now, she calls me Dr. Frankenberry. We are
Mr. and Mrs. Dr. Frankenberry. There is nothing like that between us, but
that is what I call us. I have tried to do the Frankenberry experience with
others of my friends, like Leigh and Nathan, but it wasn't the same. Leigh
didn't do it with me, but said I was stupid. Nathan did it with me, but
I felt like it was forced on him. I guess you can't try to re-live
experiences and expect the same thing, but you always have the memory.
BAD DRIVING
I had met Nathan just about two weeks before this happened. I had
gone to his house with Nichole just to go say hi. We all decided to go
driving around and do basicly goofy shit. Well, we had been yelling at
cars, and I had not been the most resposible driver. On the way home Nathan
decided to go jogging alongside the car. I let him. Then I ran waaaaay ahead
of him. Then I threw the car in reverse. He jumped on the hood of the car.
To me, this was nothing new because I had let people ride on my car all the
time, but only in closed areas. This was an open straightaway road. I decided
to see how fast I could go with him on the hood of my car. I got up to
35mph when I heard Nichole in the back seat scream "Don't Slam on the
Breaks, He'll fly off!!!." At that moment, his hat flew off. I thought
it was him. I freaked and slammed on the breaks. Then I remembered what
Nichole had said. So I took my foot off. Then I realized he had already flown
of the hood. I slammed on the breaks again trying to avoid a death. He flew off the hood of my car on to the paved road. I hopped out to see if he was okay. He was staring straight into my headlights. His nose could not have been but a foot away. I saw that he was okay, then I said, "Let's go look for your hat" he told me he didn't care about the hat. I said that we had to find it. Then he said "Dan, I'm bleeding." That is when I started to loose my nerves. I kept thinking that I had ruptured some vital organ. I couldn't drive, I almost got us in 3 wrecks in the 3 mile ride back to his house. Nichole got out and drove for us, but, while she was driving, she couldn't find the brights, so she turned of the lights by accident while looking for them. The road was pitch black and we had to find a house that belonged to a friend of Nathan's so he could get some help, and we wouldn't die on the way home, missing a turn. Finally we got back to Nathan's house. His mom was more mad at him than me, I was surprised. We were both stupid, I guess. Nichole drove me back to my house to take me home and get her car. When I got in, I threw up because I could not stopped thinking about how I almost killed him. Any faster and I would have. Well, after this incedent, I stopped driving like a maniac. No one rides on my car except inside, and everyone where's their seatbelts. We were lucky that time, I don't want there to be a next time for us to be unlucky.
