Akron Weekend

I was supposed to post pictures of my Akron weekend along with my description but it's been three days and I still haven't posted pictures. They will get posted on and added to the the story but everybody will just have to use their imagination for the time being. We decided to go to Akron to visit Danny and Shanna (they are a WoW couple too!) on the spur of the moment Friday. We decided our finances could take it, packed up and headed out. It was soooo much fun.

We had Garmina so we didn't need to print out Google Maps and she did great. Had a couple of little hiccups but I'm not going to blame that on Garmina. Driving up to Akron was one of the best things I loved about the trip. I got to share all of my memories from the six years that I lived in the area. And they are MY memories! Isn't that cool, baby! But there were a lot of things that I took pictures of that I had never noticed while living there. I loved sharing yet another part of my life with him. I could totally live there one day now :)

We didn't get there until late and Danny and Shanna met us at Eat and Park for dinner/breakfast. Their breakfast buffet started at midnight! So we had tons of fun there. I love them cuz they don't throw me out when I say things they wholeheartedly don't agree with. So after having fun at Eat and Park and eating ourselves silly, we went home and went straight to bed. It was late as hell.

The next morning, Shanna got dressed up in these hot looking clothes (a.k.a. horribly mismatched) and we went to the Mud Volleyball and Dodgeball Tournament. Which is volleyball and dodgeball....but in the mud. I can't wait to show you all the pics! It was a fundraiser which was a good thing...but there was mud everywhere, which was a bad thing. Don't get me wrong, if I had known the tournament was going to happen, I would have brought old clothes and been prepared to get dirty, but I didn't, so I just watched my friends and their friends get covered in dirty stinking mud....it was fun to see anyway. Maybe next year. The bad news is that my camera battery went out in the middle of the day. I was upset at myself and J bought a disposable camera for me so I wouldn't be out of luck. I love him!

After getting dirty, everybody got cleaned up and went to Bennigans. It was damn good. I loooooved it. But I like going out to eat in any capacity. What made me think that this was going to be different. After dinner we went and got Margaritas for later (wink, wink) and then we went to watch The Dark Knight. AMAZING. I think the film really lived up to its hype, seriously, it was amazing. Of course the Joker stole the show and I really wish Batman wouldn't talk like that but it was good. Really good. And I loved that I got to see it with my friends. I just hate that all of my friends live so far away! At least Adrienne and Cole live close. I can't wait for them to meet J!

After the movie, we went home and lounged around and J and I got drunk off of Margaritas. Me, being a normal person, got tipsy, buzzed, then drunk. J went from sober to drunk. It was awesome! I don't get shitfaced cuz I hate throwing up and not remembering anything. We were a pleasant drunk to where everything is funny and a general feel good feeling. It was awesome. And J's hilarious and even saved me from being eaten by a spider! You saved my life J!

The next morning we had peanut butter and honey bagel sandwiches for breakfast and headed home and the trip home was just as good as the trip up. We rushed home cuz it was my little twin sister's birthdays! Happy 21st Danielle and Kim! I can't believe they are of legal drinking age. You all have no idea how weird that is for me. So the fam, J, and D all went out to eat at Chili's and we all had a good time as usual. D loved the fact that I had dessert first. Then the twins, J, D, and I went to Cheddar's and I bought Danielle and Kim their first drink. (Psst, they like Midori Sours). Then we went to see Dark Knight...again! I loved it just as much as the first time. That's how I really know if I really love a movie. If I can see it twice. Another perfect weekend.

I am loving J more and more everyday. I was afraid to get too into him as I have been with previous boyfriends. But I realize he's different. I can totally be into him. I can trust him. He won't hurt me. I can drown in him and it be OK. I can't wait until the day we are husband and wife. I love you J! Thank you for being perfect for me. I couldn't ask for more.
