Since everyone else has posted their summer reflections, here's a little update for everyone.
Most everyone knows that my Grandpa and Carol (and her grandkids) got in a really bad wreck in Georgia a couple weeks ago. They're both back in Terre Haute now because Carol spent $10,000 to rent a private jet to fly them both home. They're staying at the same nursing home as my Baba. This summer has been awful healthwise for my family. As it stands now we've had 2 people seriously injured in car wrecks, 1 broken back, 2 strokes (my Baba had another) and 1 emergency hysterectomy. I feel like I've been in crisis mode for most of this summer.
On a more positive note, Snakes on a Plane was awesome. It was everything I'd hoped it would be plus some surfing scenes.
I got a call yesterday from the manager of the Bloomington Blondies wanting to give me a job. I don't really know if I want to take it. There's no free food there and the woman that owns Blondie's is Satan. She's really awful and I'm not sure if I can work for her anymore. She actually told my manager that she was "unprofessional" for not wanting to bring cookies to advertise at her nephew's funeral. I feel like I'm selling my soul if I take this job.
I should be packing right now by the way. I told myself that I'd spend this whole day packing, but what did I do instead? Sleep in and then go shopping. Good for me!
One more thing... Someone threw a Hostess Sno-Ball at my car on Friday night. I'm sure that this was some random snack cake vandalism, but I got paranoid for a few minutes and thought I might have some nemesis out there. It was a bitch to get off my car too.
Good luck packing, moving, starting classes or whatever everyone's up to this week!
