For the first time since the characters grouped up my power will actually be activated. I'm not completely useless anymore! Just mostly useless.

Oh yay! Actually no, turn it off. Don't torture us with your power. Please anything but the gift of pain :hehe

Anyways, my post is up! Oh and just as a heads up, should be having a new person joining us sometime soon. Thier character sheet is already approved so don't be alarmed if a random person suddenly starts to post in the IC.

Okay, I guess it's storytime.
[hider=Yesterday's Crazy Experience]
So yesterday my friend and I decided that it would be a perfect day to go inner tubing down the river. Granted, I haven't been to the spot on the river we went to today since I was a kid, I wasn't 100% sure where we were supposed to go. But we weren't too worried, the two us are quite adventurous and made a great team together so a minor mishaps like that wouldn't bother us. Anyways, after a bit of driving and finding where we were supposed to be, we found a place to park alongside the river, or at least a trail that led to the river. Taking our half-blown inner tubes (we just bought them before heading to the river), we trekked down the path. And treked...

And treked...

and walked a little more, but this time through some blackberry bushes since the overgrowth of this year was starting to consume the path. As the path sloped downwards, my friend decided to make sure that we were on the right path and opted to go ahead while I stayed with our stuff (and worked on removing a few thorns(which I believe I still have a few more burried in my skin) since I slid into the blackberry bushes while going down a small slope). I wasn't able to hear her due to the river being so loud but the ground gave out below her and she fell down the cliffside (only about fifteen feet so not really that huge) and was banged up pretty badly and I could tell she would need stitches on her leg. Remember how I said we were heading towards urgent care and said that it would be a long night? Halfway there she decided to brave it out and said that she would be fine bandaging it and wanted to continue our inner tubing experience. An hour later and a trip to the store for a fist aid kit, butterfly bandages and a large bandage, we were finally on the river, this time reaching it at a different part of the river since it was later in the day and knew that we wouldn't be able to go down the whole section with the limited time we had. 

WIth all the trekking, climbing and everything else we went through so far, I was glad to be on the river. I think my friend got sunburned but I don't burn easy so I was lucky. That is until we got close to the end of the river. A log had fallen into the river and our inner tubes were stuck behind. Granted, it wasn't too much of a concern even though the current was a little strong since it was only waist deep there. Climbing onto the log with our tubes, we found out that we were in a jam but this time it wasn't an injury. We had a waterproof bag with my car key, her phone and our IDs (thankfully not our wallets) in it and it happened to get undone while behind the log. We searched for the bag but with the strong current at that section we knew that the bag was gone. 

It was hell trying to fix everything up from yesterday but I was able to get a new ignition key from the dealership today and our replacement driver licenses are being sent in the mail. It's been a crazy two days and there had been so many times things could have been worse but we made it through!
