The Unabridged Vacation Story

So, yes, I'm very aware that I haven't written in a while. Certain people have also loved to make that point clear to me as well. I got back from my vacation Sunday and I had a tremendously great time on it. In a stirring recap, let's revisit the good times.

Sunday night started with me visiting the Rocket wire headquarters and then going to the real place for smiles, Eat'n Park (Yeah, take that Ruby Tuesday!) Of course, what could be better than having breakfast at 11 at night and not feel one bit awkward about it. Then it came to a Super Wal-Mart which ended up seeing the wire trying to decide 37 times how much he should by. Deciding to put WWE One Night Stand away in some sort of department, I couldn't tell you how much he spent. But it wasn't a ton.

Monday came and saw Dr. Zeltner, Mike and myself go to Ginger Hill Tavern. I was very remiss in leaving out the fact that Zeltner paid. That's clutch. I think I had a burger while Rocket wire I know was sipping on some fun drinks. I was not. Of course after a few minutes, Zeltner asks me what everyone in their right minds want to now and that's if the lovelife has gotten any better in Ridgway. Of course I told them it hasn't which apparently stunned Zeltner to no end claiming "the women were following you all over the place, you just never got the timing right." Two particular instances includes a lady which has been previously referred to on this very blog as "Unnamed girl X" and then there's another girl who I think from our convo should be referred to as "Mysterious Stiletto Boots." Let the questions commence.

That night marked me watching the Sliders play and also my reemergence on-air. I'll post the link if you so desire to listen to it. The Sliders won 1-0.

Tuesday included a lot of bumming it but also a nice trip to Franklin. I really love traveling and ever since I got another ride, I've been able to do a lot more of that. Anyways, the road to Franklin goes up Route 8 and through Barkeyville (watch your speeds) and then takes a trek on what I call "The Road To Nowhere." This road is nothing but trees. Nothing. Riding on this road a couple times was really boring but I love the convenience of Speed Limit 65. Not too shabby. The rest of the night was spent being bored as I didn't really too much.Wednesday was the transition day from SR to Kittanning.

Wednesday also included going down to Eracers and go-karting (with my main thought being "don't flip it over.") and then going mini-golfing with a nice and tidy score of +6. Then it was another roadie down 356 as I went through Butler (taking a mass amount of time by the way) and then down to Freeport where I then tidied it around and took 128. Now growing up I always thought 128 went into Ford City. Well, it sort of does. That's if you take the right turn and don't drive by it as I did. Turns out 128 actually goes to Northpointe and you can go to Slate Lick if you keep going! (These small towns are going to love the affection and attention that I am giving them) So it was up 28 (one of my absolutely favorite roads) and over to Worthington for another nice round of mini-golf at Lick N Putt where I naturally played 18 holes of golf and then divulged myself in a hot fudge sundae. Afterwards I was done and it was time to go home.

Thursday was an interesting day for sure. I originally was just going to travel to Leechburg and it turns out I just kept going farther and farther south. I ended up in Apollo and Vandergrift (known best to me at least for the greatness known as Abs) and even took a stop at the thrift store in Apollo. Didn't really buy anything though. Then it was down to New Kensington with lots of construction and then the greatness of Pittsburgh Mills. And I do mean greatness. First stop was Best Buy as I got 3 computer games and a cheapo PS2 game in a store that looks ultra-modern. Oh, I how love electronics. That store was incredibly sweet. Then it was time to walk around the mall and be amazed at how many things there are to buy. Of course, 2 cheapo sports jerseys sure can do the trick (Daunte Culpepper and Duce Staley $10 each, it doesn't get much better than that!) In a whimsical twist I started the satirical campaign entitled "Losers for Losers" HAHA we have to support each other. Again to reiterate, this is just a joke.

Friday saw a lighter day which included an afternoon of driving back roads and then ending up on main roads. One of those main roads (422, otherwise known as speedway to New Castle) ended up taking me down to 119 and the magnificence known as Blairsville. It was really weird to even be around the place. Now as some of you may know, I've really only been to Blairsville once and even then that was only for like 3 or 4 days. But the only real reason that I got all warm and fuzzy inside (and now outside I guess too) is because of Heather. You can be directed to Heather and I's story by scrolling down to the January link of this year in the archives. Read it! It's one of the few times I will be "emotionally accessible." Lately, now thinking about this, it does make me think about the ladies in my life that I in all honesty probably could have a better chance of getting to know, but didn't. I do miss Heather a lot, and I even wonder what would have happened it I had given a second date to my prom date Autumn or maybe spoke more than one sentence to that one girl that poked me on facebook. It's hard not to think about sometimes, especially when things aren't going great.

But anyways, let's get back to Friday night. Mom, Dad, Captain Dan and I went to Lernerville Speedway and watched the hot racing action. I hadn't really been there in a long time (about 7 or 8 years) and it was cool to go. I wore the maroon R hat. EPIC.

Saturday saw me go visit grandma and then go up to Turney and Lori's where I sat near a fire and ate burgers, hot dogs and then wound up with bug bites. Fantastic.

Sunday saw me leave and play all my new toys! I really need to clean my apartment up soon.

Well, that's it for now, I'll talk to everyone next time about fantasy football.
