Pain

I am in SO much pain right now.
I was trying to be a good GAFA employee and put up those summer dance class signs OUTSIDE the city limits so GAFA wouldnt get fined. WELL idk if you guys knew this about me... but I tend to make decisions before I really think about them. (I'm actually really good at thinking before I speak but absoutely TERRIBLE about thinking before doing.)
Anyways.
SO I'm driving down Market St (at 8:45 at night) and I see it... the perfect spot for a sign... which I KNEW was outside the city limits. I pull off down this semi-driveway road thing, tell my sister I'll brb, grab the sign, and jump out of my car.
The second I did I knew something didnt feel right with my feet. Does that stop me??? of course not! I go running toward the end of the road... meanwhile my feet are becoming soooo much more in pain. Since Its dark, I can't see the cause of the pain. As i'm pushing the sign into the ground and tears are forming in my eyes, I realize where my pain is from.... I AM IN A FIELD OF CACTUSES.... AND I AM BAREFOOT!!!!
(You can all take a second and call me an idiot in your head cuz that what I did at that moment. )
I run back to my car (through what I now know are the devils plant... AKA cactuses) and jump back into my car. When I look at my feet they are COVERED in cactus prickly things (no idea what they are called.) I picked out enough of them so I could drive home but still in alot of pain.
NOW I knew if my parents knew about my little run through the cactus feild at 8:45 at night theyd be pretty mad at my stupidity. SO I had to walk into my house like nothing was wrong, then go to my room and spend the next 30 mins picking out cactus prickly things.

And I cannot believe I just blogged about this.
