gatherings...a good idea?
So i had a gathering in Emerson today. Yeah yeah, i know...my grandparents used to live in a nice area of Altona. then they lost their minds and moved to Emerson. What were they thinking, you ask? Well they just weren't. Now there they are in Emerson, wanting to get back to Altona...the catch is that nobody wants to move to Emerson so they can't sell their house. Sorry Grand P's, you guys screwed yourselves over right there. I love you guys anyways. It would also be nice if you stopped smoking, kay grandpaps? Good, it's settled, we just added a good couple years to your life. It's too bad your lungs are tar congested, and your heart barely beating...life is life i guess. Bad choicess...
Speaking of bad choices, man...do the Bowles people EVER learn?!?!? Yeah let's just leave everything we have in Altona and move to Emerson and open a Bed and Breakfast! Good idea? NOOO WAY JOSE! It's painful to see these people continually make horrible decisions. They have to pull their kids out of a reasonably good educational system in Altona (reasonably with loose lips) and put them in a notoriously horrid Emerson school system...good idea? Nope, not that one either. Geez Gord, think it through! Emerson already has a B&B on 5th street (yes i know that, and it's weird how i know that)and it doesn't EVER get business, do you think you will??? Who in their right mind would want to spend a holiday in Emerson?!? For ____ sakes think it through!!!
Back to the gathering. It was a good time, because Andy and Jordan are my cousins and they are such amazingly awesome people. These James gathering are always so much fun because all of us cousins get along so well. I love them all. And grandma...i always have to laugh at her, always trying to sound interested in everything i or anyone else said. She obviously has no idea about most things, but she leads on like she does, she mostly smiles and nods. Interesting Bird that one. Gee, i wonder if Robyn, Alyssa, and Althea Friesen kicked me in the shins enough today? Hmm...probably not, i think i coulda lasted a few more swift ones...oh well, at least they felt comfortable gang abusing me, wait...why is this a good thing? Oh probably seeing they never talk to me, except for when they think i do or say something funny, then they just laugh their asses off until i leave. They actually talked to me today, then kicked me, then talked some more. Of course we were playing soccer, but why kick me??? I mean the dang ball was not even near me!
I also have learned some things today...
1)Don't pick up Nolan (8 year old cousin) by the feet and drop him on his head.
2)Don't run into Nolan and put my shoulder to his face in an aggressive style, he tends to not be able to breathe for a few minutes when such a thing occurs.
3)Andy just keeps getting more awesome!
4)I have reeeally cool uncles, especially Allen Friesen (woods teacher at Miller, cool guy)
5)My dad is a totally different person around other guys his age.
6)My grandma realizes she doesn't have much to give, but gives ANYTHING to make us feel loved.
7)My grandpa's smoker's cough is sickening.
8)I really miss my Uncle Tom, I'll see you soon, give the big guy a hug for me man!
9)Pam's(my 20 year old cousin, Andy's sister) boyfriend seems really nice, but so did Scott at first...*shifty eyes'd*
10)I really need to paint my room.
11)____ happens.
