I'm still here

Wow, it has been forever since I've been here. I've been trying to squeeze so much into my weekends now that summer is almost over. So, what's been going on? Musikfest just wrapped up it's 10 day festival last night. I went down on Aug. 2nd just to walk around and had a great time with Brenda. I ran into Sue and her daughter and we got to talking and found out that they want to be put on the cabin list for next years' Womongathering festival. The weird (or not so weird) thing is that I wasn't surprised that she was on this path. So anyway, Musikfest, heard lots of concerts this year. I didn't realize how close the hospital was to that particular stage until I noticed how clear the entire concerts were. I got to hear Avril Lavigne, Boston, Poison, Jethro Tull, and Stone Temple Pilots.

Last Sunday I headed up to Pocono for the NASCAR race. I had a blast!! I haven't been to a race in a couple of years and never realized how much I miss being there live. The only thing that I didn't miss was sitting in my car for an hour and 15 minutes trying to get out of the damn parking lot after the race. That is the one bad thing about Pocono Raceway and now I remember why I haven't been up there in a couple of years. I think next year I will head down to Dover.

I love the Olympics and watch as much as I can. I remember when I lived at home, my mother and I would watch them together every night. It's one of my favorite memories growing up. I miss having someone to cheer with. It's no fun watching it with someone who isn't as crazy as I am. I like to yell and scream at the TV and now I get looked at like I'm crazy. Which I guess I should be used to

My cousin turned 40 this past weekend and had a party. It was a blast! 12 hours of complete craziness. Fun times, although I hate my birthday and I find it weird that people want to celebrate theirs but regardless, I have a lot of fun when they do!!
