Wedding, Interviews, and the Like
Well, I was gone for five days (July 27-31). On the 27 (Thursday) we spent almost eleven hours driving all the way out to BC, which must have been the most boring car ride ever. The guy that was driving us was a Country music fanatic so we got to listen to his CDs about two to three times through once the radio went out. And I heard the stupidest song ever: a song about boots. This guy was singing about how he had a pair of $225 boots with seven stitches on them somewhere, some sort of horse-beating thing (probably not exactly that, but close enough), and all of the pretty girls stare at his feet, not his face. Wow. Great song there Mr. Country singer.
After we got there we were acquainted with the family that we were supposed to be staying with. It consisted of a couple that wasn't married and who owned three dogs. We also found out that they didn't eat meat of any kind and that everything in their house was organic, including the toothpaste and dish soap. That was somewhat interesting. I've found that I really enjoy organic apples more than I do regular apples XD But as for carrots... I'm not sure.
They were very nice. They let us cook and raid their fridge at will and were very kind. The only thing they had to drink besides water was organic lemonade, which actually tasted really good. I enjoyed my stay there but I think it was fate that had Josh and I sleeping in the dog room, despite the fact that I'm allergic to dogs. I ended up taking a benedryl every night and having to take a shot of my brother's puffer just as often.
We actually didn't do a whole lot while we were there. Friday we went to the Scandia arcarde for five hours where Josh spent $60 dollars that his dad gave him. It was fun stuff and they had a lot of the older games, like those for the Atari and the Super NES. Unfortunately they didn't have DDR.
Saturday we went up to see the newly-built trestles since the old ones were burnt down. I really enjoyed the walk and I had fun tossing rocks down into the valley below and watching them shatter as they hit the other rocks that had ended up there. It was an enjoyable walk and Josh had a chipmunk on his hand. They're really friendly up there. I don't think there are any rules against feeding the animals or anything because it seems that everyone likes to feed them, even though they shouldn't.
Sunday was the wedding, which was a blast, I must say. I got to wear the fancy dress that we bought. The bride, Angie, said I looked beautiful. She did too, of course. I loved the way her hair was done because it was pulled back and looked like it was wrapped around these gorgeous flowers but I don't think it actually was. The woman that was marrying Josh's step dad (Darren) and Angie messed up Darren's name. She called him Derric, lmao, and he seemed slightly miffed. After they were wed I got a couple pictures with Josh and his family (I didn't expect any given that I'm not even part of the family). Afterwards Josh, his brothers, and I went swimming at the hotel where they were going to hold the reception, and once we were done that we went to the reception. It was fun stuff. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire thing and I think what I loved most was wearing the dress. I think the only downside to the entire procession was that I had to wear high heels and they didn't quite agree with my feet, lol.
And now here I am typing this. Last week I went for a job interview as you know (or so I believe; if not last Tuesday I went) and yesterday I called back the manager. He said that he wants me to call him back tomorrow afternoon so that he has time to consult with his daughter or something on whether or not they need the help. So... Who knows if I'll be getting this job. I don't even want it, but BlockBuster still hasn't called me back =_=
