Oh the places you can go!

Wow, this is exciting (: 

My first blog entry.

Yesterday, I went on an unplanned adventure! I went to Jason's house to do my Art History review since I didn't want to stay home and do it by myself. Upon arriving at his house, we decided to go to McDonald's because a) he was hungry and b) because he wanted to break the world record of eating the most Big Mac's in a day. After grabbing a quick bite to eat, we headed back to his house to do something productive- study for our exams. As we were driving home, we saw a free couch sitting in the middle of someone's yard. We couldn't let this opportunity fly past us! A free couch?! Who in the world WOULDN'T want a free couch? So, he stopped the car, we got out, and attempted to get the couch into his car. 

The couch was one of those bed/couch things, so it was pretty heavy and I couldn't really lift it, so Jason did most of the work. We tried a lot of ways to get the couch into his car. Thankfully, there was also a trash can nearby, so we used it as a lever. After 30 minutes of attempting to maneuver the couch into his car, we succeeded, but not without humiliating ourselves because the person who owned the couch came outside and stared at us while we were trying to get the couch out of his yard. It was hilarious. I drove back to his house while Jason ran behind the car to ensure that the couch didn't fall out from the trunk of the car. When we got to his house, he began to unload the couch.

Unloading the couch was the easy part, getting the couch into his house was the hard part. So, we decided to unload the couch onto a tiny red wagon. It didn't work out too well.

Long story short, we unloaded the couch onto the wagon. The couch got stuck in a bunch of bushes, so we abandoned the wagon and tried a flipping technique to move the couch. Finally, after 40 minutes of lifting, pushing, and abusing the couch, we successfully moved it to the front door. Unfortunately, it wouldn't fit through the door! We tried different methods to try to get the couch inside, but they all failed in the end.

So, we put the couch back onto the red wagon and put it next to his mailbox so another person can have the same fun filled adventure we did (:
