Dom: "Sexy...Kinda"

This is my weekend...part 2. scree!

We all got up around 9 AM and plotted out our day. Rose ended up having to leave because she had work and some other things to do. The rest of us ate and went online to look at pictures of our hobbitses. Megan and Karen went outside for a little bit and played on the trampoline and Carolyn and I talked for a little while. We all eventually ended up outside and jumped about for a bit. Karen got the idea for us to have a picnic and a river adventure in her canoe. So, we all got some cash and headed out.

We went to the gas station by Karen's house to buy some soda before we left. We all got two bottles of Jone's soda and then headed to Karen's. We ate a little then went down to the river to canoe. It was a totally new experience for me since I have never ever EVER ridden in a canoe. We (megan, karen, carolyn and I) all climbed in and headed down the river while I struggled to get some sort of balance.

We found an abandoned log and left megan on it then went down river, with Carolyn and Karen rowing and me flailing in the boat. We dropped Karen off and I took over rowing. Oi, it was scary! I had to keep us off of rocks and stuff. We were sent back to get the sodas, so I pulled the boat to shore to get out. I have very short legs mind you and I swung one up somehow, and got it on the land. The land was kind of soft so my leg slipped, and my other leg got caught and I tumbled into the cool water--butt first. Groof. That was not cool. I screamed SO LOUD. Carolyn fell in the water too and we just kind of slopped back to get the marooned kids and paddled back.

We all eventually got out and were playing around in the shells and found a turtle, but it swam away. We kept splashing eachother and eventually we found mud and were flinging mud at eachother. It was nuts. Karen and I cornered Meg and Carolyn threw her a oar and somehow we started playing a weird game.

We call the game Sticklebats. One person stands on shore with one paddle(the stickle), and another person stands in the water with the other oar(the bat). The person with the stickle flings mud at the person with the bat and your object is to get the other person bloody mucky. Karen and Carolyn played for awhile while megan and i wrung water and mud out of our clothes. Eventually it turned into a mud fight and Carolyn and Karen got eachother disgustingly muddy. Carolyn ended up having to take her cool cornrows out because they were mud encrusted.

We headed back to Carolyn's after Karen and Carolyn wrinsed off most of the muck. Karen had to go home, and the rest of us took showers (Carolyn has 4 showers at her house). Boy, water hot is a noble thing. It felt so nice to get all clean.

Mom came and got Meg and I and we took her home then got some food at the grocery store in Akron. I went home and loafed about the rest of the weekend. I went into town yesterday though to pick up some soda.

Guys, my dream has come true. I am playing Samwise Gamgee in a LoTR remake. Yes, the gang and I are remaking Lord of the Rings. I'll get you guys the full cast list tomorrow once we get it sorted through.
I'm so pumped!
