there's no place like... ted's pants?
So yes, clearly I'm back home. At the apartment. It was very fun at my grandparents, but I definitely get that feeling that it's time to go home, now. I started getting that years ago when I go at my dad's. It's not that I'm not enjoying myself (although sometimes it was), but there's like something pulling me back home now. But, all that considered, it was loads of fun this weekend. I visited family I hadn't seen in so long. It's funny because our generation are considered 'the kids' and we all used to play together, but when I got there Sunday it was of course only talk and we were asking what was going on in our life and pretty much everyone answered with 'oh, bought a car, studying in so and so field, bought a house, etc etc.' It was just so surreal. But cool.
So, apart from seeing family members I hadn't seen in a while, I did the usual at my grandparents. I slept a lot of course, and I ATE. Oh my god, I ate so much. There's just too much food over there, it's overwhelming! I had forgotten about that, but even when I had enough, I had to go back in the kitchen to take another snack. I mean, whoa, it was crazy. They have, like, more than half a dozen boxes of chocolate covered granola bars. For what exactly, I don't know. Are they fearing the day they run out of granola bars that much? Geesh.
Then, of course, because the computer there is a dinosaur (in the bad sense of the term) and because Noel and Yvonne were borrowing my room, I had to leave the room at ten most of the time. So, I found other ways to occupy myself. You should all be proud of me for this one. I FINALLY finished the book 'Geisha'. I can't say it's my record, because I've read some Harry Potter way slower than that, but I still had that book for the longest time. Dude. But, I'm so in love with that book now. After I read the last line, I was lying in the bed, I just took the book in my arms and closed my eyes for a moment. It was that powerful. Well it seemed that way at the time at least. I loved it.
And yes, that's what it is. This week will probably be busy. Well... busy for me. Which isn't saying MUCH.
