got there, jumped in my brother's car, threw our stuff in there, and drove on to

this hotel where we were going to stay for the weekend. And I remember as we were

unloading our stuff out of my brother's car, walking to the hotel.

At one point my mom turned to me in the parking lot and she said,

Ben, is that your underwear on the ground?

And I said said yes.

It's like that's odd okay and so we walked inside and started to check in and

then while we were checking in suddenly the bottom of my

bag flipped open like a lid and all the contents fell out. I was like what a

cheap bag and so I kind of had to gather all my gear into my arms and walk through the hotel just like I don't hold

bags, bags oppress me, don't worry about it, carry my stuff into the room and go that way.

But we had a good dinner planned ahead so I was undaunted, we're going to have a nice vacation but as we
