ok, its been awhile so here has been the low-down. Friday night Kyle, Patrtick, two girls and i all went to go see I,Robot(not bad). One of the girls seemed interested in me, so i took a shot at trying to get with her, but night was already almost over. I dropped them off and went home to sleep on the couch for the swim that was supposed to start 7 hours after i had gotten home. My swimmer did ok, placing 11th overall, but my rowers, as cool as they were, had downed a 30 pack of coronas and were heckling every swimmer and finally broke an oar.about a hour and 1/2 from the end, i get a call from my mom that my great-uncle had a heart-attack and is in the hospital.this hit really hard cause my mom's side of the family pretty much ignores me except for him, and the accomplishments he has made in his lifetimes would constantly invoke me curiosity.after getting across the finish line and checking on my swimmer, i rushed to my grandma's house to see her(unfortunaley it was her birthday and this was her brother), and realized with great pain as i walked that i was sunburn beyond anything i could have thought on a cloudy day. i waited at the hospital for 2 hours for my dad to get there, and because he's in the medical field, he has a rare gift by just looking at people to see if they will live or die.and lets just say my 93-year old uncle may have cashed out his chips, but that is yet to be seen......only unpside to the day is my great uncle's only relative with the same last name came to see him, and cause he is a cop and i now have my license, he gave me a PB card, so no tickets for me.I've never really been relgious in my life, but i pray to god that whatever happens to him, that he will be happy.
