The past three weeks have been so incredibly busy I don't even know where to start. Adam's surprise party went off better than I expected, and (I think) everyone had a really good time. Hurray for Adam! The Tool concert was amazing, aside from the obnoxious potheads, and Jeff is the best cousin ever for giving us free tickets! Hurray for Jeff! Nicole's wedding was lovely, and I had a blast hanging out with Micaela, Alison, Jacquie (Hurray for Jacquie being home!!!) and Sarah Bear (whom I do not see often enough!) Micaela and John and I hung out a lot on Saturday before I had to get them back to the airport - we spent some time at her family reunion, and then we walked through the free part of the Botanical Gardens into Piedmont Park and played on the playground there for a while and pet other people's dogs (run-on sentence = GO.) Afterwards, much later into the evening, Brian and Bryan came home and we played Dr Mario until we fell asleep. I pet-sat for Adam's family while they were in the Virgin Islands, which was cool, and lucrative (Hurray Adam's mom for paying me to play with dogs!) This past Saturday Brian and I moved out of the apt and into my mother's (which is odd, yet temporary so it's all good. plus, she's actually been really cool lately. And also, I have internet access again now!) Adam and Bryan were awesome and helped us out a lot, but my mom didn't get the room upstairs finished in time so all of our stuff is camped out in the garage for the time being. It's all good though. Afterwards, we were joined by Spiffy and Sean for dinner, and later by Trishna, John, and (briefly) the lovely Alison. Some people swam; Spiffy and I hung out in the boat (oh yes, the boat) and then we all watched The Lake House, which is awesome no matter how much you may think it sucks. So there. And yesterday before and after work Brian and I cleaned out the apt. So now we just need to do the final walk-through and turn in our keys, and we're done there. Oh, and I have to cancel utilities. I shall do that in the morning.
Freddie is back with Amelia, which was very worrisome for a while - I gave her 2 months notice that he needed a new foster home, but she didn't bother to find him one and when I told her she needed to take him back last Saturday she freaked out at me and basically threatened to euthanize him. So, that was very crappy and stressful, but she apologized and found a place for him so hopefully all is well with that now.
Brian and I are going to Athens on Friday to see Bryan's band and staying to do a late father's day cookout with his dad, which will be nice. Then on Monday we leave for CT to surprise my grandma for her birthday! We'll get back at midnight on Thursday (almost Friday) if anyone feels like picking us up from the airport and maybe hitting a Waffle House (hint hint) and then on Saturday Brian and Bryan leave for Daytona and I'll be a saaaad panda =( BUT it will be ok, because they'll only be gone a week.
So yeah, things have been a little hectic. And I'm not even going to get into the bullshit that's been going on. At least, not right now. I have something typed up, but I don't know if it's worth posting. We'll see how things progress.
Anyways, I must be off. Adam and Bryan and Jacquie are coming over! Hurray!
