A Weekend Under the Sea

I got to go home on Friday even though there was a blizzard!! 

I didn't get a chance to update since then, but as of 3pm on Thursday campus closed because of the weather, and then at 6:30am Friday, campus declared a snow day. My ride was going to leave at 11am on Friday, but because there was a break in the storm we decided to leave early (8:45am). It was great! I got home at 12:30, drove my sister's car to my dad's work, picked up MY CAR!!! (Guess what?? I got a car!), went to lunch with Jen and my mom, and then bummed around at the house for awhile until Jordan picked me up for his sister's play!

She played Flotsam in The Little Mermaid Jr. (Flotsam is one of the eels for those of you who aren't up in your Little Mermaid characters). She did an amazing job, her eel qualities were superb. I was extremely impressed. 

Following the play we (Jordan, Payton, and Mr. Parmett) went out to dinner and back to their home for some cards! I learned how to play Queens (I can't remember the real name), Go Fish! (yes, I didn't know how to play) and Crazy 8's (again, didn't know how to play). 

Saturday happened... I bought some new tennis shoes because the last pair I owned were literally falling apart from the soles and had a hole in the toes. Jordan and I went up to St. Paul and hung out with the guys. It was fun, and for the first time (only because Nate kept yelling at me) I stayed awake the WHOLE TIME!!!

I always feel bad. I love hanging out with everyone... but I am always tired on weekends. I stay up til 2 or 3 on weeknights, but I catch up on my sleep on the weekends when they aren't around to keep me up playing video games online. I'm definitely not the life of the party... I get comfy on the couch, talk for a little while, and then I crash. 

Sunday morning Jordan took me home, I said goodbye to my family, and drove back to Duluth in yet another snow storm. 

Yikes. Winter, I love you.. but your time is up. Please give way to the sun!!
Always,
