Milestone
This weekend was a strange milestone. The ex's sister had her wedding on Saturday (along with everyone else in the nation). I was a part of some of the planning for so long I was really looking forward to it. Plus, it was the last thing to happen before almost all connection with the Bekebrede family would be gone. I naturally did not go. But, my parents did. Obviously Mike was present. I was wondering what he would do if anything. Big surprise...he did nothing. So (*whew*).
That same night a neighbor boy had a graduation party. So that was a chance to dress up and look stunning to impress the natives. Of course I knocked them dead. (*wink*) In my last post I alluded to bonding with the womenfolk of the town, so I hung out with them at the party. Well, neighbor boy had an older brother who was pretty cute. So the ENTIRE night the old women were trying to hook me up with him and were giving me tips on how to pick up boys. Then some of his friends came and the women were all convinced they were checking me out. It was embarrassing but hilarious! I had such a good time. The oldest women of the troupe (i think she is in her 70's) actually pointed to a boy and said he had a cute butt! I laughed sooooooo hard!
Yesterday was crazy. I went to school in the morning, like I do every other day, and on Tuesdays I have about a 4 hour break until my evening class. Usually, the boys and I go to lunch then hang out in the computer lab to do homework or play our favorite game Starcraft. Dave had heard about a Solar Fair convention downtown that he really wanted to go to and Tuesday was the last day it was free and open to the public. Well, I thought it might be fun to go and so did our other friend Chip. We all got into Dave's car and made the trek from Elyria to downtown Cleveland. The car trip alone was worth the adventure. Anywho...the convention was informative and fun from a nerdy standpoint. But, of course, since it was about solar power and alternate means of energy there were hippies about. It was great! After that we hadn't had lunch so we went to the Great Lakes Brewery. I was such a pleasant fieldtrip! The food was soooo much better than the Taco Bell that we eat for lunch almost every Tuesday and Thursday. Sadly we had to drive all the way back to Elyria for our last class, which wasn't worth it. Oh well...
