The past weeks in review

Firstly, the Transformers movie is bloody awesome. I will admit I was a little worried when they introduced Bumblebee as a Camaro (he's supposed to be a VW Bug), but that worry soon faded under the almost total awesomness of everything else in the movie. Much thanks to the makers of the Transformers movie for not taking a cherished childhood memory and killing it.

Second, vintage baseball as Greenfield Village is also awesome. Granted, I had to sleep in my car on Saturday night because of a lack of proper sleeping space, but my car is really quite nice to take a several hour long nap in. The Westside Emeralds won their first game on Sat, so congrats to them. Sun was a little less fortunate, only because it rained almost all damn day. Still, a good weekend.

That guy who pissed me off at work left the job. We have two new people who started last week, and I think the rest of the time at that job will be faaaaaaaaaaaaaar nicer then the past several months.

Mad Mordigan is back!!!!!!!!! One of the best local Toledo bands has gotten back together after disbanding a few years ago. I found out that they had a show last week, which I missed, but I now fully intend on stalking the band till their next show. I'm so EXCITED!!!!!!!! Goodness know how I love my music.

In a couple weeks I may be up in Jackson MI attending my first event as an official member of a Civil War reenacting company. I have a ton of research yet to do on women's roles during the war, the war itself, and things the type of woman I choose to portray needs in camp... however I'm pretty sure that soon I'll have all I need. Again, way excited.

Last but not least, I sent in my application to UT. I know, took me long enough! Right now I'm just waiting to hear back so I can sign up for some spring classes and get the ball rolling towards my next degree. I have a lot of schooling left ahead of me, so it's about time I got my lil 'ole butt movin.

That about sums it up. I promise next time I won't be gone for so long ;)

Ah...for some reason I was thinking Tennesee or Texas...yeah, I know, I'm not the smartest one in the group. I forgot you live in Ohio.

Speaking of which, we're not that far away from each other. Once wedding season is over we should meet up for a drink and cake. First round's on me!

You know what, that's not a bad idea at all.

Who knows, if Ren has some free time, maybe he could come over and join us ;)

Congrats on a productive week! Good luck with the Civil War thing! Sounds like a good time. If the Civil War thing ever takes you to northern VA (near D.C.) give me a ring & we should met up...since I'm leaving to move there in a mere 2-3 hours!
