Miss "It's my party."

SO my darling sister Meghan decided today would be a wonderful day to have her 2-week overdue birthday party. Fine. With a jumping castle obstacle course. Fine. And 30 screaming 13 year old girls. Oh god..

So all was well. One girl Two girl Fourteen girl Fifteen girl Thirty girl Thirty-one girl. Yep. Thirty-one girls!! And this is from the previously SEVENTY FIVE kids list. SEVENTY FIVE. I can't name seventy-five people would want to invite for none-other than social reasons. So she cuts the list.. of boys. Fifty. She trims the excess forty. Eight decline. So thirty-one (plus my cousin) girls are and this party. Mother of god save my soul. Now this jumping castle obstacle course is in no way shape of form reminiscent of mine. This one this a small archway. Then a wall with slots to jump/fly through then a nice wall about 5ft high to ATTEMPT to go over. Finally some inflatable poles top it off designed to smack you in the face. All good right? WRONG.
These things are not designed for 30 people at a time. A) it's not big enough and B) that's just plain stupid, so the girls race instead. Well people have this tendency to get silly and play in the back meaning a pile up. Meaning and overflow. Meaning a halt. So EVERYONE gets off and the bus starts up again. Eventually to get around this we instated 'patrol' to let people know when the track was clear. That worked, until people stopped listening to the patrol. Eventually the 'princess' made an appearance and brought about order. THEN a coup of sorts was thrown and suddenly everyone was patrol and i mean 6 girls. YOU NEED TWO MAXIMUM. So I offered to take control cause thats the only way I'd get near this awesome thing. What do I get?

"No, Kevin you're so annoying." I had f-king had it up to here with that little brat so, I walked away to the basement and guess what reached my ears. "KEVIN KEVIN KEVIN." Those who were sick and  tired of children running rampant realized "Hey, maybe the older kid should help." But, Meghan to no avail refused. =] Then there was some cake and lots of gifts. I never go to go back on.

HMPHHH.

KCTW

P.S. I'm thinking the castle should make ANOTHER appearance. Meghan invited.. I'll think about it.
