The writeup.
So, as everyone knows, I've been a bit AFK for the past month.
I spent a huge chunk of time at my Mom's place, and then drove across country with my Dad.
My mom and my dad are both amazing people, and I feel extremely lucky to have them!!
We drove in the world's smallest car (A 1994 Ford Aspire) and we got AMAZING Gas milage. From 28-51MPG. The only thing is that we had to fill up every 200 miles. ^_^; We were hauling nine boxes of comic books, rocks (My dad collects pretty rocks...boulders...) my clothes, and a suit of armor...
I got to reconnect with an old friend, Tricia, who got me back into playing Pokemon again. (I'm going to eventually have a deck that works!) and I missed out on seeing Charis. ;_; But, will remedy that when I go home in a few weeks for MFF, which, yes, for some reason, I'm actually DEALING. O.o
Fox, Mbala, and Vantid had me up for a few days, which I really apprecaite! They're fantastic hosts, and their place is LOVELY! I'm jeleous of not only the place, but the work, and love they have for it!
I got to meet up with a couple of friends, which, I really appreciate everyone being amazing for. I'm so glad y'all got to meet my dad. Thanks to WolfNymph and Preston for showing us awesome Thai food. It had been forever since I'd had food like that! And to Ket and Teegan for showing us that breakfast place! Red Velvet pancakes, WTF?! ::Laughs!!::
I got to see the Devil's Tower, Mt. Rushmore, Mt. Saint Helens, the Jewel Cave, Mt Ranier, and have now officially been in every state in the lower 48.
We came home and Dad told Cro about his pot smoking days (I didn't know he'd smoked at all!) and the only thing I ever had to confess was I SMASHED my car into the back of his once, so loud that Mr. Prentice came out of the house. I guess he never said anything...sooo...neither did I!
Now, though, my plans are to settle back into the rhythm of normal life. I missed Dani a lot, so we spent some time together at the mall, and she came over and we cleaned my space (Which, wasn't that bad) and went to JoAnnes and stuff like that.
I've got MFF to go to, and then...nothing till FC. Which is fantastic, because I need to look for work, work on my projects, and keep working on me!
I'm still around 255lbs now, and I've gone back to eating Primally. It's fantastic, and I feel better already.
Edit: While I was gone, Kody and Nibbles got into another fight (How this happened, I'm not sure.) and now Kody's got a big gnarly scar on the side of his muzzle. I'm pretty sure Cro was thinking I was going to be mad about it, but...what's done is done, right? No reason to get mad, just work hard to prevent more issues in the future.
Edit over.
Oh, yeah, I'm also not depressed any more. Like, at all. ^_^ So, there's that! Course, the last time I cried I was smiling, so, that's okay! ::laughs:: My dad did it on purpose! ::Laughs:: I still miss them.
