All right, so yeah this weekend was definitely a nice time. Saturday I got to head back up to Springfield to visit some friends for a cookout. Got to see our friends Bridget and Brian and even got to meet their friend Jen, not to mention Bridget's entire family who showed up. But yeah, burgers were delicious, conversations were awesome and from the look and sound of it, the booze were quite potent. By the time the party started to wind down though, it was close to 11:30 and Dad didn't want me on the road all the way back home, so I went just a little south and crashed on the floor at my buddy Jeff's new apartment. And yes, this would be the same Jeff with the friggin' cat that I now believe has ADD.
So sunday morning Jeff wakes me up and reminds me that I promised to go to church with him and then Katey called me and woke me up again so I get to their church mostly on time. And when I get inside the church, just...wow. No pews to be seen anywhere, just a bunch of coffee tables, a dancing pastor, and flags. Yes, that's right. Flags. And not just like the little trinket flags they pass around on the 4th of July or anything. No, this is the flags like you'd see in a marching band. So yeah, it was kind of an interesting hour-45 spent in this church.
After church I ended up going out to the *shudders* Mall. Apparently we're going to dump like 90% of my old clothing and the parents wanted me to get some new stuff so I went shopping for the first time in like...ever. Don't get everything I need but I made a couple small steps. Anyone out there knows what colors work for someone who's...built like me (There you go Kari)? I don't know what I should get other than Dad's "Something that's not tees" philosophy.
Got caught up with the guys again and saw my buddy Eric's new house which seems like it'll be a nice place after he does a few very minor things to it. Yeah. Eric's got his life on track, Jeff has his life on track. Hell, even seems like Ronnie's got HIS life on track. And yeah, here I am doing absolutely nothing because why? Cuz I basically wasted five years of my life. *shrugs* I guess it happens, huh? Well, Jeff's trying to get me to come back up there to live. Honestly don't know why, but whatever.
By the way Jessi? You're good to go now. I figure you're reading this at some point so you're free to do whatever you want. And before I leave, don't worry about me or anything that I've said here. I'll be fine eventually here, I just need to deal with the fact that I've made some (many) bad choices in my life. Back to the Cardinals.
