Also , today is my second day off ! I go back tomorrow , but it's been so nice to have two days off . I was working pretty hard pretty consistently and my house showed that . So , I got it sort of cleaned up . Here's a picture of my living room and my dog Bonnie .
So , that makes me happy . Yesterday turned in to a bit of a drag for a while . I won't write why because even thinking about it puts me back there . But Johnathon , Stevie and I ended up going to frolf (which is so fun , you should too .) then we all went and had root beer floats together . We needed them , that's for sure . We went to this little , kind of trashy place where you drive up and wait for service . No buttons or speakers . It's a nice place though . Good , I mean .
And Oh , I love Columbia . I wonder if I'll grow tired of it . I used to pride myself in the fact that I would always grow wherever I was planted and enjoy myself . I guess I sort of settled in to this habbit of leaving and always looking for the next place to go . And , a lot of people just are never happy with what they've got . So many girls here whine about how everyone here sucks and they hate this town . Johnathon has been here for 3+ years and he still talks about how much he loves it . I think it's probably just the type of people they are . Johnathon is definately happy wherever he is .
Here's a great Columbia story . Last Sunday , Johnathon , Stevie , his girlfriend Kylie , Lua and two friends of ours Grace and Felix were all outside playing Bean Bag Toss . It was a wonderful day , our neighbors were outside also playing games involving beer bottles and frisbees haha . Anyway , we looked up and saw a wonderful hot air balloon ! After Kylie and I settled down (franticlly squealing and pointing like a tourist) we grabbed our cameras and snapped away !
Soon after , we noticed more ! Three more ! Including one that was a monkey or maybe a bear . And Johnathon told me that they have a goldfish one that drops little packs of goldfish . How wonderful ! The balloons were beautiful and we started noticed one getting extra close to us . My dog , Bonnie , hated them . At first she just whimpered a bit , however , when they started making noises that to her came off as growling she got very angry . She puffed up that hilarious patch of fur and growled right back ! We ended up having to sit and calm her down because she acted as if they were rival dogs or something . All the while , the first balloon we noticed was getting closer and closer .
So , Johnathon , Felix and Stevie hop on their bikes and ride just around the corner where the first balloon is landing ! Around the corner from our house is a large field and we think they may have accidently landed there . Who knows . But here's a picture of Johnathon speedily driving away and shouting in his most manly of voices "THEY NEED MY HELP !" oh , my love is a ham .
Anyways , enough out of me . I need to start on cleaning my bedroom !
