Long Weekend!

Well, maybe it hasn't been the best. We had to come down to Colorado Springs for my grandma's memorial, which was kinda boring, and therefore, I've been harassed by four WAY overly energetic 9-6 year olds the whole time. HEAVY 9-6 year olds. Who still insist on being carried EVERYWHERE. but whatever, it hasn't been all bad.
it'll be wierd not coming down here any more...but I don't feel like going into that any more. To be perfectly candid, I don't think I'll miss this place half as much as I think I will.
Dean and Becky came down for the day!!! I was delighted to see them this afternoon, and even more delighted to hear they'd be here all day. Dean and Becky are the grandparents who...well, I nearly had. Granted, they're not actually related, but that's just a technicality. Trouble Pops and Nice Mom are the greatest, as well as Emily (who's 23, one of my best friends in the world growing up and getting married this June!!!) and Tracy (who's 21, and has spent the past three months as an exchange student in the DR), who I've just taken to calling my cousins. I mean, it saves alot of explaining.
Right now Herbie Fully Loaded is on in the living room. I wanted to see this movie when it came out (the old Herbies were classics), but right now it seems really predictible and cheesy. Ah, who cares!
I'm feeling a little cut off from the civilized world right now. I mean, Colorado Springs IS only an hour and a half away (in good traffic- it took us three hours to get through denver in rush hour last night!!!), but it still seems like a different world.
Have you guys ever seen the youtube video What Old People Do For Fun??? Haha, it's great! I'm gonna be just like that when I get older.
Well...I'm getting hungry now, so I better go try to find some food. Did I mention the significant LACK of it here? haha
Good
Night
Y'all
God
Bless
