I went to Guernsey last weekend. It was different in a way, and it was better then I imagined it would be. Brett worked most of the weekend so we did not really get to spend as much quality time as we could of with him. A.J., Donny, Sarah, Erika, and myself all went down. We partied, had Chinese food, road the ATV, swam, rolled down the hill, drove around, walked, hung out, slept, and we just ultimately had a great time. I guess the most important part of the weekend for me was catching up with A.J., and Brett.
I feel in a way that my friends have become a larger part of my life. I reached an epiphany that the only reason I have not run away from this hell hole of a State is because of them. They bring stability to my life, and that I consider them my family. I finally realize how much I need them around, and I feel thankful that i can trust them. i am thankful I have known them my whole life. I am glad they are not back stabbing, and do not just pretend to like me. I do not think i could handle being that friend, who when you see him/her you want to run in the other direction. I do not think I could handle being the friend who you keep around because they make you look like a better person.
Anyway done being sentimental. Back to Guernsey. On the way down I guy pissed me off by cutting me off. So for the next 45 minutes I made his life a living hell by cutting him off. It was pretty awesome, and we took a picture of his face. He is now named Wallace. We then got to Guernsey. We hung out for a while had an awesome time, and then Erika and I proceeded to have one of the best nights of our lives. After getting drunk off of wine. The next day we all hung out passing around a book called, The Ethical Slut. It was very interesting, and basically covered all forms of sexual experiences. Most of us then went riding out on the ATV. I went by myself for a while, and found it amazingly liberating to listen to Third Eye Blind, while speeding through the hills. AJ, and Brett then fired the Cross bow, and looked like they were enjoying themselves. The third day we sat around talked about team ram rod. We talked about Zombie invasion. We talked about Dag, and went for an awesome 6 mile hike. I then drove home.
I feel great about life. I can not wait for the fall festival. So I can show Erika what fall really means to me. I want her to see the endless happiness that emits from my soul around Christmas. I am excited about the next few months.
