Ahhh! I have slacked on my journal. How awful
of me. But I've been pretty busy. Let's see if I can remember
everything that's happened since my last entry. Last Wednesday,
the only thing I remember doing for sure is lying around watching
TV. Dawson's Creek and Glory Days, I believe. Thursday was
Valentine's Day. Adam and I ordered dinner to pick up from
Mistretta's. It was delicious! And we drank some wine. Mmmm.
Friday, right after work, I left for Detroit
with Summer and Rabecca. We got to Leighanna's place after
midnight. On Saturday,
we drove to Ann Arbor to meet Emma and go shopping! We went
around downtown for awhile, then went to Briarwood Mall,
where I've actually been a few times when I was little. I went
with
my grandma! It was weird seeing that mall, because the last
time I saw it I was a lot smaller! Saturday night was the
night of the Breeders concert. It was in a place called the
Magic
Stick, which is connected to a place called the Majestic,
which is a restaraunt. Enclosed in this huge building, spread
out
over a number of areas, are a couple bars, a restaraunt,
a pizza lounge, a bowling alley, a pool hall, and a concert
area.
It was fun! We ate dinner at the Majestic. Actually, we just
ordered appetizers and drinks. Our waitress was SOOOO NICE!!!
And cool. She recommended appetizers to us, and also her
favorite shot - an 18-wheeler. It kind of tasted like chocolate
milk.
After dinner, we went upstairs to see the Breeders. It was
so fun! They were cool.
On Sunday, we went to the Gap Outlet
and the Nike Outlet on our way back to Athens. That was
great! I love outlets!!!! Monday I stayed home from work because
I wasn't feeling well. So nothing eventful happened. Monday
night
I was feeling well enough to see a movie, so Jason and
Julie
and I saw Crossroads. It was definitely an experience.
We were laughing the whole time. It was just ridiculous. Some
parts
of it were actually funny but mostly we were laughing at
how dumb it was.
Okay but now I'm getting to the big news.
On Tuesday,
I BOUGHT A CAR!!!! Totally unexpected. The Volvo isn't
doing
too well, and needs a lot of work done to it, so Mom
was going to buy a new used Subaru for herself and give me
her
old Subaru.
I asked if it would be possible for me to trade the Subaru
she'd be giving me in for a smaller Subaru. She said
that she was going to Parkersburg that day to look at Subarus
and that
I could come. Well, while we were there, she decided
that
she didn't want to buy a new car til Fall anyway, so somehow
we
decided that I would buy myself a car! That is something
I hadn't even considered! But it made sense. I got a white
2000
Subaru Impreza 4 door sedan. I LOVE IT! It was owned
by this doctor who buys a brand new Subaru every 2 years and
trades
in his old one. And he took PERFECT care of it when he
had
it. So it is in great condition and I love it!!!! I am
so excited! Not excited for car payments but hey, it's worth
it!
And that's
my big exciting news. And that brings us around again
to another Wednesday night, which I just spent watching Dawson's
Creek
and Glory Days. Fun fun fun!
