So, I just got back from my trip home for the 4th of July. Liz, Zach, AK, and I all took a little road trip back to my house from Saturday to Wednesday. It was totally awesome, and it felt great to see my family again. Saturday we left at about 6pm, reached my house at about 1am. Went to sleep, got up sunday and went to the renaissance festival. That was fun. I wore my costume from last year, Liz wore a mix of her stuff and my stuff to the fair. Zach created an assasin outfit for the occasion and AK borrowed my dad's costume. Bobby came with us too. It was a lot of fun. I think Bobby ate like, everything that he possibly could at the festival. I got sick at one point, and I think it was because of a mixture of heat, a lot of water, and a lot of dust getting into my system. Oh well, I was fine. Plus it didn't ruin any of my fun. Zach threw knives, AK threw tomatos, and both shot arrows. So, we have some fun pictures of that. Bobby ate, ate, and ate. So we have pictures of that too, haha. And I kept tripping on my skirt, haha. Um, we left there, went home and ate some awesome chicken that my parents made for us. Yum, and I think that night we went swimming and had our adult swim party. Funness, Bobby finally saw Robot Chicken. Monday we got up and I drove us to PA to buy fireworks. After getting confused on the road I was driving I finally got onto the highway. I drove the highway! Yay! Yeah, for those who don't know, I have always avoided highways because they make me nervous. Well, they make me nervous when I am the one driving anyway. So, I am proud of me. Bought fireworks. went back to my house, watched Snatch. That's a pretty good movie, made by the same people who did Mean Machine, which is a must see movie. Then, about a half hour later I had a little "party" at my house in which a few highschool friends came over. Monika, Kirsten with her boyfriend Derek, Jessica, and Jen came, oh, and lets not forget Bobby. Haha. It was fun, we ate, went out to icecream, and hung out at the playground at the CEA, my elementery school. Um... went home, set off fireworks, did some night swimming. I love swimming... sigh. Um... Tuesday, we went to this new Anime store that just opened up, and we each got some stuff, except for AK. It wasn't really the kind of place he would find interesting, but I tried to keep him occupied at least. I still think he should have bought the little Pikachu bank for his car, haha. So, we skipped going to the porn shop, because I honestly had no idea where to find one. Went to Coutnry Wagon, bought some munchies and pastries and then went to the little cemetery up the road and ate them. Liz and I wandered the cemetery while AK took some pictures. Zach sat in the car because the bugs were bothering him. For a boy scout, he really can't handle nature very well sometimes. haha. Then we went to Regal and saw Batman Begins. Wasn't that bad of a movie, but I thought it was a little too long. Also, some of the story didn't seem to flow well. I don't know, at some points I just wasn't following. Maybe it is because I kept getting distracted by the almond I was eating. Notice, I said almond, not almonds. Haha. Then, we went to Olive Garden. The Olive Garden. The --Olive Garden in which I barfed about 2 years all over a wall, booth, and almost all over this elderly couple. It was nice. Went home, Bobby came over to say his goodbyes. Went to sleep, woke up this morning and drove back to Cleveland. Road along listening to Madonna, Strong Bad, and other wonderful things. Kept things lively. And so now here I am. Liz is at her orientation at Target, because she just got a job there. YAY! Go Liz! Zach left with his mom to fo spend time with his brother. I think this is a good thing. He has been a little weird lately. Maybe some family time will fix him. AK is laying on my bed doing what he is always doing. Homework. At least I have company though. Yay! But, overall, I think it was a nice trip. I liked seeing my family, old friends, and current friends all at once. Plus, my brother may be an ass, but I did get to have a little alone time with him in which he showed some music videos and stuff just like old times. Ha, not that I really care about the music he likes, because I think it all sounds like crap. But I do like to see the excited glow in his eye when he is showing me something that he likes. :D
