I stayed in bed all day. The hangover was too real from the amount of alcohol that was consumed last night. When I got home I was way too drunk to cross off number twenty-two, so I did it when I finally dragged my lazy ass out of bed. I unfolded the bucket list and trailed my eyes down it until I found number twenty-two; win a game of beer pong. I folded it back up and threw it on top of my desk. I decided to actually leave my room and see what the rest of my family was doing. Once I reached the end of my stairs I heard many familiar voices. I walked into the huge living room to find Cate, Kevin, my parents, and Lucille and Carl sitting around the large coffee table, laughing, and playing Cards Against Humanity. "She's alive!" My father announced to everyone.

"Very funny," I rolled my eyes and sat down on the floor in between my mother and Cate. "Can I play?"

"Of course!" Lucille handed me seven cards and finished the round before letting me join in. It was Carl's turn to pick up a black card and read it to everyone. He laughed loudly before reading it to everyone around the table.

"When all else fails, I can always masturbate to..." Carl trailed off. We all laughed along with him and read through our cards silently. I had many funny cards to choose, but the funniest one I had read; "grandpas ashes", so naturally, I had to choose that one. I set my card down facedown and waited for everyone else to put their cards down. Kevin, my mom, my dad, Lucille, and Cate all laughed as they put their cards down facedown. Carl picked them up and shuffled them so he wouldn't know whose card is whose. "Okay," He breathed before reading the black card again and then reading all of our white cards. "When all else fails, I can always masturbate to... Kids with ass cancer, snorting coke off a clown's boner, bitches, grandpas ashes, poor life choices, or Kanye West."

We all laughed hardly at each card even though a lot of them were very inappropriate and disgusting, but that's the point of the game. The game is literally called Cards Against Humanity: A Party Game for Horrible People. And we were all horrible people.

"Kids with ass cancer?" Kevin asked, bursting out in laughter. "That's fucked up!"

"I think I'm going to have to go with snorting coke off a clown's boner."

"Yes!" Lucille shouted, taking the black card. Cards Against Humanity is basically just an adult version of Apples To Apples. It was now my mother's turn to pick a black card and read it aloud to everyone. Some people might say it would be uncomfortable to play this game with your family, but my family is so close that it doesn't matter.

"What is the next Happy Meal toy?" My mom read aloud, all of us shuffled through our cards, trying to find the best one. I found the best one; assless chaps. I put my card down after Cate and Kevin put theirs down, leaving my dad, Carl, and Lucille to put theirs down. Once everyone's cards were down, my mom shuffled them and started reading them to everyone. "What is the next Happy Meal toy?" My mom repeated the black card before reading the white cards. "Fiery poop, assless chaps, rim jobs, butt stuff, a bleached asshole, or doin' it in the butt."

"Literally every single one of those cards has to do with someone's ass," Cate said trying not to laugh but failing miserably.

"I think I'm going to have to go with assless chaps," my mom said with a loud laugh.

I cheered in success and took the black card for myself. After another hour of playing Cards Against Humanity we went through the whole deck and called it a day. I looked at my phone to see if I had any text messages, but sadly, there were none. But then again, who would be texting me? I had no one to text. I noticed that the time was nearly eight-thirty, meaning the sun would be setting anytime soon. I excused myself from the conversation everyone was having; something about Obama and who the next president should be. I had no interest in politics whatsoever, so I wasn't even putting any effort into the conversation. I walked upstairs to my room and changed out of my shorts into a pair of leggings and a long sleeved shirt. It tends to get chilly at night sometimes and tonight was one of those nights. I didn't bother putting any shoes on since my house was right on the beach. I left my phone on my bed and walked out of my room and out of the backdoor without saying goodbye to anyone. If they needed me they could wait for thirty minutes.
