capping the weekend and my absence

Wow. It’s been a few days since I’ve been able to sit down and blog some. I’ll throw a “sorry” out to all you who missed me. I probably missed you too, but I’m sure I’ve at least seen most of you in the past few days as I have been out and about (rather unusually) lately.

So, what have I done so far with my spring break? Well, Allison got here Friday night—Saturday morning I mean. It was like two o clock when he finally rolled in and he and I stayed up talking until like four Friday night catching up on everything. Really seemed like he dislikes school, so the whole goal of his trip down here was to get his mind off of it.

When we woke up Saturday morning we hit the streets to go and say “hi” to everyone, which we didn’t get to accomplish all in one day. We first went to see the Van Hooks, then we saw a few other people, but not much really ended up happening on Saturday. We ended up at Josh’s house for most of the afternoon and into the early evening hanging out on the computer playing with Google Earth (for HOURS!), it got kinda boring, so we went out for ice cream at Dairy Queen.

Sunday was interesting because we got up and went to Allison’s old house to shower and there was no water OR power, so he goes to ask his neighbors if he could shower there and they talk his head off and it took him like almost 45 minutes to get in and out of there, so we ended up late for church Sunday morning. After church, we all went out to lunch at Wendy’s, which was probably the highlight of this past weekend because I love hanging out with everyone. Well not everyone was there, but it was just about everyone.

After lunch we went home to take a nap around 2 and I slept for about an hour and Allison slept till 5:30. He sleeps so much it’s practically unhealthy. I thought I slept a lot until he came down! But anyhow, we decided to go see 16 Blocks and invited some people and NOBODY could come, so we called Josh and he ended up going, which was cool. But 16 Blocks was such a good movie, I was really surprised. After that, Allison and I went to Jack in the Box and talked for like TWO HOURS, which was probably the best conversation we had all weekend.

I gather that he had a boring weekend, though, cause he left out this morning right after he woke up. Overall, it was a pretty good weekend. I think I went more places and spent more money than I have in any weekend since the summer, though… but, after all, doesn’t that make it more fun?
