Michigan

So here I am in Michigan. We've been here about a week and a half now working on Apartments at the U of M getting them ready for the students to move in. But today Lee had to go with his cousin by himself because they have to haul around sheets of drywall and well there's no room for me. So I'm just hanging here at Lee's parents house by myself catching up on some movies I haven't seen yet. Right now I'm watching Leap Year with Amy Adams, so far it's really funny. But yea this is probably a totally pointless blog, but it relieves boredom for a while. hahahaha Unfortunately Lee and I are starting to get homesick now. We miss the cats and the horses, and most of all we miss our own bed! Sleeping on an air mattress isn't all that great, Its kind of like sleeping on a moon bounce actually, hahaha He rolls over and I am bounced off. As funny as it is, it makes a full nights sleep rather difficult. But we'll be home eventually, change-over should be done here at the end of the week, then we have to wait for Lee's cousin Niles to pay us because as of the moment we are totally broke. So we probably won't be able to head home until next Tuesday or Wednesday because this weekend happens to be Labor Day, and neither of us want to drive 600 miles home on Labor Day weekend.
Other than that we've been hanging out up here, I love all of Lee's friends and family and I get along with them great! His parents love me and everyone is just so nice and not full of drama, unlike the people I grew up with in Virgina. And that's why this is my 4th time up here. hahahaha I have my few close friends, but most the people I was friends with back home ended up stabbing me in the back in the end, so I never talk to them anymore. But anyway I'm getting off topic here. We had a party for Lee's cousin Carl (Niles brother) at Grandma's house and we partied till the sun came up. Although when the drunkards started setting off firecrackers Lee and I decided it was time to go before they blew something up or got the cops out there. hahahaha That was around 4:30 am. We ended up sleeping in till like 2:30 the next day, then just kinda lazed around the house. We worked again yesterday but not very late. Then went over and hung out with Lee's brother Tim and his wife Shannon. Its been a good trip all in all. The work part sucks, but it will pay off when we come home with money to hold us over till I can manage to find a job. The job market around Lake of the Woods in Virgina really sucks, I've been looking forever now it feels like, that's why we came up here, because other than cleaning stalls for my parents we don't really have any source of income right now. But anyway, I got movies to watch and books to read, so I'm probably gonna hop off of here for the moment, but I'll blog more about Michigan here in a few days, especially if I end up staying by myself again. hahaha. O and when I get the chance I'll also post a few pictures from Busch Gardens like I said I would a couple of weeks ago. hahaha Anyway until next time

Almost Outta Here

Ok this is a totally pointless blog, but I'm just so excited!!! I'm leaving for Michigan in a few days with Lee to go hang with his family for a few weeks. He's gonna be working some, I'll go with him a few days so it should be interesting to say the least. haha. anyway, I will have time to blog though, because I'm still not exactly clear what I'm going to be doing yet while he's working. I'll be playing it by ear. haha. Hopefully some of his friends will come and keep me company. or maybe I'll just blog or read. The only thing that sucks is the 9 hour nerve wracking drive, I could live without that. But It usually goes just fine. Anyway I've got tons to do still so its time for me to get off of here.

Bad Parenting!!!/ The Weather Channel

Ok so this is kind of random. Now i watch the weather channel a lot, its always very helpful even if they can be over dramatic and repetitive at times, but the weather is very unpredictable so it can be a good thing. But a week or so ago, and again today, they have been talking about the heat and how to stay safe and keep your family safe. Now this list of things to do included, and I quote, "put a picture of your child in the car, or your briefcase or purse in the backseat so as not to forget your child in the backseat of the car on hot days!!!! Now what is wrong with this people!!!!! Who in their right mind forgets to take their child out of the backseat when they get out of the car. How can you possibly forget that you gave birth. Is America turning into a land of stupid, retards. I think so, I mean I don't even forget groceries or things in the backseat when I get out, much less a child. And furthermore I talked to my mom about it and she said that she would forget her purse over her child any day. I just don't understand it. Anyway I guess some people are just that stupid and the weather channel is there to remind them of that. Other than that I don't have anything productive to say today, I just really wanted to rant about that after I saw it again a few minutes ago. I couldn't believe that I had seen it again because the first time I saw it in the morning and I was half awake, I thought I was imagining things. But seeing it again today has really blown me away about how stupid American really can be. So that's about it for that rant today, next time I blog, I'll have the pictures on here from my family's trip to Busch Gardens yesterday, we had a blast, but more on that later, I've got some things to do.

Just a Update

Nothing real interesting going on. My teeth are doing well and my last English class was this morning. I get my teeth cleaned tomorrow at 10.... and ..... wow looks like I have an exciting life. I really don't see why anyone would wanna read my blog. I apologize for this recent(long term) lack of creativity. I am kinda busy but I should be able to come up with something better than the last few posts. Anyway, Well Lee and I will be leaving for Michigan here before to much longer, I need a vacation and I love visiting Lee's family. Even though right now he's being a pest by poking me in the side every chance he can get while I'm trying to type. So other than that nothing going on, I wanna go back to the pool but as soon as I really start going we end up with cool weather again.... just my luck huh?
Ok so I guess this is enough boring everyone for one day so I'll get off here until I can come up with something way more interesting to write about. I'm just kinda braindead right now.
