Getting Lost + Apples to Apples

Ok, it's official, Lona Hates mapquest. Evidently I just suck at following directions. I got directions of mapquest to get to Morgan's house so that I could go watch the second Saturday session of General Conference. Well, I didn't realize that one of the directions said a street Name, (like cherry lane or orchard street). Street signs don't have the Names in that neighbor hood, they have NUMBERS! I was driving around for 30 minutes, trying to find her freakin house!!! I stopped at 7 houses to see if I could use the phone or get directions!!
And then after, when I looked at the map, I realized there was a road like 4 blocks away from my house that would have taken me most of the way there. So I took that one home.
When I finally got there Anderson wasn't. A discreet question to Morgan and I found out he'd be late. Wes, Nate, and Tyson Were. I figured Wes would be there, because he sorta lit up after I said I'd go in class.
Morgan's family is really cool. And from hanging out with her I learned how sweet Morgan really is. She's such a nice person and her laugh is adorable. She made soup! It was really good! It had squash and potatoes and carrots and celery and all sorts of stuff with lots of pepper! And after conference her Mom made us scones.
We didn't end up going to the corn maze because it was really cold and wet and cold and muddy and cold. Anderson brought Apples to Apples just in case we didn't go to the maze and we played that instead. I lost. I didn't take into acount that 3 of the six people playing were nerds. Ok, not too nerdy, but they definately have s different sense of humor than me. Morgan and Anderson got closer.
I like talking to Anderson. He's intelligent, funny, nice, and a very good guy. He's a Peter Priesthood, but in a good way. And he's a swimmer.
No, I'm not falling for Anderson. Or anyone else for that matter. It's really nice not to be. It's alot less emotional stress. I think emotional stress can be from good emotions, or bad. Emotion in general of that sort is tiring. With the amount of sleep I get, I don't need help to get tired. Oops, time to go make stir fry, I almost forgot!

i really wish i could have stayed and met anderson, i have never talked with him before. i was looking forward to seeing everybody and being social cuz' really im not.
i hate direction finding, maps and anything that even remotely resembles directions. i was lost for 45 minutes trying to find braedens house in kaysville. i thought the street you turned onto had a light but apparently not.
then i passed the exit to parkers house and almost hit a guy who had gotten a flat tire. then i passed the turnoff to parkers house.
after all this i was expected to dreive home in the rain and fog at 10 or 11 at night. NO WAY
so i left my car in n. salt lake.
