A Patriotic Weekend
July 7, 2009
Happy Monday to all. I will admit that after the nice long weekend,it was tough to go back to work. But once I got in I was busy all day, so time went by quickly.
I had a really nice weekend with David. I left Thursday after work and got to Athens around 8. I stayed at David’s Thursday and I brought him back to Columbus Friday for the imfamous Red White and Boom. The hype was definitely worth it. It was one of the coolest fireworks shows I’ve ever seen. Even though we walked 3 miles there and 3 miles back, it was worth it.
Saturday we went back to Athens for “Thunder in the Valley” the Nelsonville Fireworks show. Which I enjoyed. Sunday afternoon I headed back to C-bus. It was strange being back in Athens, knowing I wouldn’t be coming back in the fall. But it was great to see David and I got to eat some of my favorite college foods, Casa Lopez, Big Mammas and Union St. Diner.
Sunday I spent most of the day getting ready for work on Monday and did some job applications.
Today at work I did a bunch of interviews. Unfortunately it seems they’ve got me on the depressing medical beat for now because I’m writing stories about cancer and Alzheimers. These interviews are getting to me. But I’m also writing about hip hop dance and ladies baking cakes at the county fair. So I guess it evens out.
I’m sure I will have more exciting updates later. But for now I am off to bed. I am attaching some lovely fireworks pictures I took with my Nikon Cool Pix camera.
