Where to begin...I think my problem was that I was basking in the afterglow of the Madonna concerts that I went to and then I just got wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am busy. My parents' ranch in Nevada, my brother's bachelor party in Palm Springs, my dearest friends' (Lara and David) wedding in Colorado, and again to the ranch.
The thought of detailing these adventures here seems a daunting task, but I thoroughly enjoyed each. As for my parents' ranch, I just got back from a two night visit on Thursday, and I can't wait to go back. The mobile home (yes, it is a single wide, and I come from white trash) they are renovating is turning out really nice. There are now chickens (Anacona and Bard Rock), two Longhorn cows with month old calves, a couple of Arabian horses, and some quarter horse mares with foals. Each time I visit the menagerie is larger, and I hear there's a possibility of a Boer goat with kid and some guinea fowl on my return.
My good friend Jenna and I took a midnite cruise on the raft in the swimmin' hole, soaked our tired and dirty bodies in the hot springs next door and even got a ride in on the day we left. Campfires, simple, but delicious meals, good converstaion and just a break from the city. I love that place.
And I think I love it more because it reminds me of when I was a young boy on the farm in North Dakota, and my parents seem happier together now than ever before, despite the separation.
The only other exciting news I have is I got tix for the Scissor Sisters show in LA, and I can't wait. Almost as excited to see them as I was Madonna. I hope it doesn't take too long for Jake to realize his love for me.
Hope everone is doing well, and I'm finally back on track with the LJ thang. I hope.
