Spring break was last week and I took the long train ride home on Friday. It was nice getting home and seeing my family again. I spent some time with my mom, decorating her new house and shopping. I then went to Minot to pick up my grandparents. I got to see my aunts and uncles and cousins too. Little K. Hope is getting so big! And her brothers are just wild too. Lots of fun!
Drove my grandparents back to Fargo because my grandfather had an appointment at the VA hospital for his cancer medication. It was nice to see them too. I sat with them when he was talking to the doctor too. It was a very hard morning for me. It made me realize how much time has passed and how little time we may have left. He has a nasty disease and it can turn at any time. Then my grandfather was mentioning how they might be selling the farm. I just can't imagine not having the farm anymore. Some of my happiest and best memories are on the farm with them. Its just all around difficult.
I have an aunt that had a stroke recently too. And now my uncle just doesnt know what to do with himself. Its hard watching your family age. All apart of growing up I guess.
Went to two hockey games this weekend. That was really exciting. Glad I got to see the Sioux play this year. Now onto the Final Five. Oh and in a surprising twist, those no-good dirty bastard hacks from DU were eliminated by Duluth. Yay Duluth!
The train ride back to Chicago was ridiculous. The train was 5 hours late getting into Fargo in the first place. Apparently they had engine trouble in Montana. And THEN, a prostitute was in the sleeper car with a "customer" that was supposedly stealing her money. So they made a huge ruckus in Minot and that delayed the train another hour as they waited for the police. I was supposed to be in Chicago at 315pm...didnt get in until 1030pm. Aaack! But at least I got loads of Mental Health Law read while I was traveling. Ah Amtrak...how I love/hate you.
Back to school today. Didn't really miss anybody lemme tell ya. I have about 5 girls I can get along with on a regular basis. 80% of the rest can kiss my ass. The others...well they're ok. We aint close chums but they are at least tolerable. Some of my profs have been bugging me lately too. I'm just really really ready to be done. I'm ready to get out of the city and where Rumba is.
Where is you Emmy Lou?? Hope you're doing ok!
Well this post doesn't have much a point, more or less ramblings about nothing so I'll quit while I'm ahead. Hope ya'll are doing well.
