Summer

This summer has gone by FAR too fast. I don't like that feeling. It feels like just the other day I was packing up to come home for the summer. I've been spending today thinking about where the time has gone. First week home: Milwaukee and Rhythm and Booms. Second week: bumming around Madison. Third Week: Green Bay. Fourth Week: Washington DC. Fifth Week: DC and recuperating from DC. Sixth week: Green Bay, dinner with friends, State Fair, Gary Coleman, Mustard Day. I can't believe I've been home for only 6 weeks! It feels like I've been here forever, and then some days it feels like I've only been here for a short amount of time.
I'll start out by saying this has been a great summer. I've gotten to see just about everyone I've wanted to see, and some more than I thought I was going to see. I got to see almost anyone in Green Bay. I was able to spend a whole week up there. I think that's the longest I've spent up there since I graduated from SNC. I helped a friend move into her new house, and was able to spend a bunch of time with her. It seems like she's always working when I come up to visit. It was nice to be able to spend time with her. I got to spend time with my friend and godson. He's getting SO big. I wish I were here so I could see them more often. I stayed with Adam, and made him leave his apartment when he hadn't left all day, as well as other things that got him away from school work. It was kind of like being back at SNC. I did help out when I read over his papers. So I wasn't a total distraction. And I got to see two friends that I'm not always able to see up there. I was able to meet them in Oshkosh too. I love the fact that we can just talk for hours about so many things when we all get together. I was glad that I was able to get back up there for 2 more days near the end of my trip. Being back up there made me realize how much I really miss being up there. I really hope that there are job openings up there soon!
Washington DC was fun. I saw many things, and still didn't see EVERYTHING out there. I did get to see Dan, and that was awesome. I miss hanging out with Dan. He's always a good person to chillax with. I think my dad, sister, and I were tired of each other after 9 days in DC. But we all had a good time.
I've done so many "down home" things this summer here in the Madison area. The baseball games where I met Beaver from "Leave it to Beaver" and Gary Coleman. Going to the National Mustard Day celebration in Mount Horeb with my sisters and Adam. State Fair in Milwaukee. These are things I can't find in Vegas. Oh well. Some day I'll get back here to good ol' Wisconsin.
