Woah. Awesome Weekend.
So this weekend was pretty darn awesome.
I love Shepherdstown. I'm counting down days until I'm back again.. everything felt as it should be. I loved hanging out with everyone Friday and Saturday. Kristin's kitten scratched the shit out of my legs though. I miss organic food and being able to walk everywhere. Watching fireworks and going to a carnival was pretty nifty too. I decided I don't really like the new bistro or icecream place...too pricey. Oh, and so far Anna and I's plans for our room consist of a High Fidelity poster and a sega genesis. Any suggestions?
As usual, our group of friends fucks up everything in our path. Single handely, we almost showed up to the wedding the same time the bridesmaids were walking in... Alex was going to lead us on a 2 mile hike through Harper's Ferry woods to find the ceremony. Jordan led 3 cars full of people in a tour bus zone that was illegal for us to be in. We all sprinted to the right ceremony after crossing 340--as it turns out, we were on the wrong side of the park to begin with--. And, as I said in a previous entry, I didn't know how I would emotionally react to the wedding. Well, I cried. A lot. Kind of hard. I wore sunglasses so no one could visibly tell, but everyone I was sitting with could tell. It was a really pretty wedding. I cried again during Chris' dad's speech. So I cried twice. I am so happy for them I just wanted to hug them 10,000 times. Tominda stepped in flowers, asked if she could cut a piece of cake for herself (before chris and hanna did)and almost caught her hair on fire. Anna and I thought the bride/groom table was just a really pretty table that no one was sitting at yet and almost sat there. So, among other things, we could have destroyed it by our volumes of stupidity, but I'd say a driving force new Chris and Hanna deserved a good wedding and kept us from doing these completely idiotic things.
I went to the beach with the North Harford crew Sunday-Tuesday. I got home from the wedding at 1, got up at 4, and then drove 4 hours to the beach with Claudia and Sara. We kept listening to "The Future Freaks Me Out" & "Holla Back Girl". We ate breakfast with 8 old men in a McDonalds that were talking about having pet pirates. We sat on the beach all day long, ate a lot, and hung out. We also sat in A LOT of traffic. Everywhere. All the time. We stole a road cone. We were attacked by circling seagulls. A wave popped Alex's shoulder out, and gave Claudia a black eye. The guys dug a 7 foot hole and hit water in the sand. We went to a Sandlot-type carnival and watched fireworks over the water. And, I fell asleep in a hot tub. Today we went into Ocean City..shopped and ate lunch.
I'm finally home, and I'm sad and annoyed this fun filled weekend is now over. Now, all I have to look forward to is another paycheck, and working 6 days in a row for 8 hours + a day. How dreadful....
I'd say it was all worth it though :)
