i got home monday night from out west. i spent all yesterday cleaning and unpacking and sorting our motorhome, which was kind of hell, and incredibly exhausting. today my parents got up early and decided that just washing the rv wasnt enough, they needed to wax it! i didnt even know you could wax things that were made of plastic. god. at least now its gone. i hate that thing.
we went to both the badlands in north dakota and the ones in south dakota. we also went to mount rushmore (again) wall drug (again) and deadwood. probably the coolest thing was calling brett from a payphone and being entirely surrounded by wild buffalo. who were only like five feet away. i kind of thought i was going to be eaten, even though they are herbivores, but i did take lots of pictures. the buffalo were everywhere, it was insane, they pretty much lived in the campground we were staying in.
the next coolest thing was probably horseback riding all over in the badlands and seeing actual wild horses galloping across a plain.
deadwood was pretty cool too but i found myself missing my fellow deadwood fan, that would have made it a little better. if all goes according to plan i wont have to be missing him for much longer.
besides that, there were some pretty views, way too many cornfields, way too much driving and horrendous gas prices.
speaking of missing, i seriously miss my ann arbor guys. im really hoping i can go see them all sometime next week. i cant believe how little i saw lindsay. and sade. and ryan. and alex. and speaking of alex, alex, are you alive? i wanted to im you all yesterday but your away messages stopped me, and also worried me since they got progressively worse and worse, ending with mentions of hospitals. so please let me know how you are.
later today i am going shopping with my mom for notebooks and pens, which makes me very happy. i love school supplies. way too much. im sad to be moving back because i love being home, but im also ready to get back into a routine and start classes, and im looking forward to being an old woman with erin again, and im happy to be going back to living on the same side of the state as brett.
i let my imagination wander wayyy too far sometimes. im such a worrier, its sad.
i cannot for the life of me get into my kzoo email account and its driving me crazy. i hope that all thier changes actually will make a difference and make email actually accessible this coming year.

i wish i was super rich like john travolta and kelly preston, and could fly my own private plane full of water and food and medicine to katrina victims. if the government is having trouble getting itself in the mood to help, at least celebrities are setting an example of donating and helping. someone has to.
