One Rainy Morning

What Is The Scariest Thing That Ever Happened To You?

Blog Spot

I woke up one rainy morning around 10:30. There was nothing, but silence throughout my entire house, so I made my way down the hallway to see if anyone was up. No one was even home. No big deal. I decide to head downstairs and make some coffee only to realize that the coffee pot was completely full. I found myself to be overly pleased and excited. Anyway, I go to grab my favorite mug as I do every morning, but it's no where to be found. Okay - no big deal, I'm already over it, so I grab a random mug out of the cabinet. I start to pour myself some coffee, but it doesn't smell like coffee. It just smells like nothing. I just figured it wasn't strong. I mix in some half and half, a little sugar and I take a sip. Tastes like nothing. I'm confused as ever. I add more sugar. Tastes like water, but less than water. It tastes like absolutely nothing, but it's brown like coffee. I'm baffled. I laugh because this is so absurd. I go to the pantry where the coffee is usually kept, and the whole thing is empty. Nothing, but a few paper plates scattered, a box of brownie mix, and a half eaten roll of Ritz crackers. Mind you, this pantry is usually stacked with the best cereals, cookies, and snacks. But now - nothing. I go over to my puppy to fill his food bowl, but he wasn't there. He usually runs when he hears someone getting him food. So I fill his bowl, the usually puppy chow. Except, what comes out of the container is translucent. But I hear it hitting the bottom of the bowl. Translucent pellets hitting the bowl, but I see nothing! I start to panic, but I'm really hungry. So, I go to the fridge to grab a couple of eggs. I like them fried. The eggs feel completely hollow, but I don't think about it too much. I crack an egg onto the hot frying pan, and an already fried egg comes out of the shell. I grab my purse and leave the house in my mismatched pajamas and socks. Where the hell is my family? Am I right? I get in my car, and I am being way too calm. I have no idea why, because I just experienced everything peculiar happen. I drive up the street to the grocery store. Tons of cars there, as always, so I feel better. I walk in, no one is there. No one at all. The aisles are empty. EMPTY. I try to run out, but the automatic opening doors won't budge. I'm stuck in the empty grocery store. I took a quick nap on the cold tiles. When I woke up about 10 minutes later, some guy was trying to wake me up with an iced coffee in his hand. There was a bunch of people staring at me. I was so confused. The aisles were full again, the lines were long, and there were people. I run out to my car and go back home. Everyone is in my house enjoying their morning coffee.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
