:) Maybe. I'm shooting for that 328xi one day. Driving is sweet! I loved it--So Very Much. and then after dropping off Relkin, enjoyed the ride home under a really, clear sky. but Josh thought it was silly. I was pretty exhausted to begin with, but it was a decent movie after all. I dosed off a few times, surprise, surprise!! I knew this wasn't gonna be good, because I was already pretty tired. So when we got there, darnit, it seems as if they had just closed not too long before. We made a quick decision to try our luck. I was really hoping Starbucks would be open still. We decided on Indiana Jones at 10:30. So he looked up times and the only decent movie I was remotely interested in was Iron Man, Chronicles of Narnia (though I would be missing a lot of it) and Indiana Jones. Oh!!! Haha, I get it. He goes, "I mean, would you want to see a movie after this," I thought he was going to ask me about a movie, nope. I answered, "Well my friend Schirripa is much better at knowing movies." So Relkin asks, "Do you like movies?" He's such a riot, gotta love him. Bowling was fun, he has his own ball and shoes, pretty big bowler apparently. I bowled a 96 out of no where, it was pretty damn good for me! It's pretty sweet when only 2 people bowl in a lane b/c then you get up again sooner, and I think that it's easier to get better when you're not waiting ages before you go again.. you kinda get into a rhythm for things. Oh well, next time. I had an amazing first game, and the second one was terrible b/c Relkin liked psyching me out, which was totally NOT cool, but apparently I may potentially have beat him.
That is getting to be too hard, I'm going to be normal now :P
So the whole ride home w/ Larry was PRETTY freakin' awesome. 1) bright sunny day. Now, some of you may say, "well I'd rather be playing frisbee or volleyball, or whatever..." But no, you see, there is a joy in driving if you like it, and Larry does! So it was great that we were both just chillan and totally enjoying the fact that we were driving back. The scenery as you move westward is much more mountainous and dynamic and more fun to drive through. We made it in about 9 hours in his sweet element. 2) The music was baller. Since Larry hooked up his car, it's got amazing sound. I brought my iPod and he has a universal jack sort of thing, so listened to a decent amount of O.A.R. live which was super-fun. Throw in some randoms, and then some United and David Crowder for fun. It was good. 3) Topped off with a stop at Starbucks and some good snacks. Going the six-hundred and some odd miles went by so fast. Michigan in the morning, Jersey by evening. It was a neat concept. We're thinking about making a few stops and checking out a high peak for a sweet view on the way back to MI.
We we rolled closer to home, I was overwhelmed with this feeling of giddyness! I really can't explain it, but it was so cheesy. Speaking of cheesy, the first thing we did after dropping some of my things off is go to Romeo's...which is not called Romeo's anymore! It's like, "La Piaaza" or someother crap like that. Regardless, it was the best pizza I've had in ages. Perfect.
So hung out w/ mommy and daddy at night. We had a great chat.
Woke up, went to their church (Robertsville Bible Church) where everyone was really happy to see me and quick to congratulate me. It was kind of tiring, b/c they love to chat. But it was nice.
After we had lunch and I took the most adorable photos of Lucky on the deck, I went over to Meeshell's Graduation party. Again..GREAT. !!! The people, the parents, the pictures. I always get a little sad when I have to leave these people, but getting back and chatting with them like no time has really passed, is priceless. Like, it's no small talk, like, "oh, so how are you, how was school.." blah! Ian Schwartz for example, I will always love chatting w/ him. Andrew Windman. I love that kid. Jon Hallet, Scotty Sols! and the crew, Boyd, Bockler, Ted, Doug-boo, and the loves from cheerleading, Neecoles, Schirrip, Ash was there..and then the sweet girls, Ashley Richardson, Mal...Laurie Goldberg...Man on man, it was so great to just be around those people again. Ah!!!!!
Afterwards came home and caught up w/ Relkin when he decided to not go to some BBQ. I was like, what do you want to do? I had no idea what I wanted to do, I just ate, the mall is a stupid iea, no one was hungry.. so he suggsted bowling. Yeahh, I would do that! Then I thought, "oh wait, how about the driving range?!" But they were going to close soon, so bowling it was... and the rest... I decided to be silly and type it backwards.
