friends

I started thinking the other day that there have been a very few constant friends in my life. Geneva and Shalan are really my longest running friends. All sorts of things happened between my other friends and me keeping us from staying in touch or staying friends. A lot of my friends I stopped being friends with because they and their definition of fun changed. I am the complete opposite of a party girl. I am a home body that likes going to bed early. I like watching movies, cooking my own meals, and doing out doors types of things. For most people this is not considered that much fun. In a few years I think I will be the stereotypical hippie that they make fun of in movies.
My college friends have pretty much been consistent since freshman year. Last year things took a toll on some of my relationships, and some of it was my fault I never wanted to go out, or more likely I had work or class at night...which really takes a toll on your social life. I have night classes and night work 4 days this semester, I hope I still can find at least one night to hang out with my less active friends. My active friends I have never had trouble staying connected since early mornings is when I am free and ready for walks or run, or whatever.
But I still want to make a more conscious effort to hang out with people besides Jeff, Erica, and my brother. I do not think I will have that much time seeing that I am in class and work around 36 hours a week.

pooptarts

I went down to see boyfriend last night and came back just now. It was great. We had missed each other a lot, and needed some boyfriend girlfriend time. We spent all day in our pj's cuddling and watching tv. It was fantastic.
When we had breakfast, I was making fun of Jeff for having poptarts (which I called poop tarts and almost died laughing) and not having the healthy cereal. He said he did not like healthy cereal, he liked the fun cereal. I thought this was silly and he should have the healthy grown up cereal. He said "excuse me, this is coming from the girl who has at least one banana split a day and sometimes a second frozen custard on vacation?!"

Touche Jeff.

trips

I took two quick trips. One back home to Cali, and one to Ocean City. lots of flying. I hate traveling, so all the flying and driving was pretty awful. But I will wait until I can upload pics next week, or maybe once I have time I will just type up what we did. =)

just one day at the beach

Yesterday was one of the most fun days I have had at the beach in a while, except for when Jeff was here. We have fun together.

But anyways the day started nice and early. Rob and I got up to go for a run while I rode my bike next to him. We did 8.5 miles. We got back ate some breakfast, Maria and I then went for a 2 mile walk to the end of the island where we found a sand bar and walked out to it. Then I went down to the beach with Robbie, and the little girls. Julia went boggie boarding and she would ride in and try to make it in between my legs. Then I showed Rob, Chris, Julia, and Dana the sand bar, another 2 mile walk. We swam around next to it. Rob and I then decided it was lunch and rode our bikes down to the boardwalk, another 10 miles. Pizza did not take credit cards so we got ice cream instead. When we got back Maria wanted to go for another 2 mile walk down to the end of the island. And finally we played ultimate frisbee for an hour or so. Aparrently I was very good, even Robbie said I was the best. I have never played before, but it was like soccer and diving in the sand was fun. Our team lost, but right when the game finished everyone ran over to the ocean and jumped right in. It was much colder than before but it felt so incredible, after being so sweaty. Then we had dinner, I had a little too much wine made me very sleepy, but I still insisted we go out for ice cream again.

great day.

waiting by the window

I was so excited for Erica to get home today. Every time I would get up I would go look out our kitchen window, hoping I would see her car.
This reminded me of when I was a kid and we would go to Ocean City in the summers. Our family would usually get there the night before the rest of our family got there. Saturday mornings is when everyone else would come, I would usually sit at the kitchen table with a view of Central Ave and color in the old coloring books we had there. I would get so excited to see everyone, I didn't want to go down to the beach and miss a second with them.

sweet old comments

I was missing Jeff, and thought I would read through some of our older comments before we were dating. I thought these were very cute.

New person

After being very sick, when I start feeling better I feel like an entirely different person. I had a pretty awful stomach flu the past 2-ish days. But woke up this morning and feel so much better. It was really bad, everytime I moved or got up really terrible stomach cramps would hit, so I laid in bed pretty much all day and night long. The first night when it hit, I was scared to sleep, since I did not want to wake up and feel terrible or run into the bathroom. So I just stayed up. Last night I got a good 8 hours thanks to some Benedryl.

Here's to feeling better! Huzzah!

Candy bar lineup

Katie, Cate, and I are hanging in my room watching Step Brothers. We started talking about what candybars we would choose to eat out of a candybar line up. I would choose: Milky Way Midnight, Milky Way, York, Peanut M&Ms, Three Musketeers, and Twix.
