a little summer vacation.

So I guess with four days left, I failed the challenge. But I'll finish the last four days..eventually. The real reason I disappeared for a little over a weeks is..I left. With Katie, of course. As soon as her last final was taken, we drove to San Diego. Katie's mom and dad flew out to Boise to help us drive. We left around elevenish and arrived in San Diego the next morning at about five. After sleeping for about four and a half hours, our vacation started! We spent most of the time with our families. My little broseph graduates next month and I can't be there due to summer school, so I spent quite a bit of time with him. But that's nothing new. We had a big dinner Sunday night with both of our families. We went bowling afterwards. And on Tuesday, we went to Disneyland with my family. They had never been before. It was a lot of fun, but not exactly what I expected. It rained. And the Indiana Jones ride was closed. But my parents saved the day by buying poncho's and rising above the rain. Thankfully, the weather cleared up by about noon. My parent's kind of almost had a heart attack after going on Space Mountain. And Katie had to lie to Nathan to get him to go on Matterhorn with us. It was pretty funny. Nathan and I both missed the Abominable Snowman at the beginning of the ride. Because everyone had already told me about it, I looked everywhere..except for right in front of me apparently. And Nathan. Well, he was just too scared to notice anything except for the tires in the middle of the track that he kept going on about. He thought they were going to derail us or something. It was a lot of fun! Really. It was. But Thursday, Katie and I packed up and headed back to Boise. We had to get back so I didn't miss too many work hours. We stayed the night in St. George and finished our drive the next day. We arrived in Boise at about eight that night. On the way to San Diego, we had taken the 93 but on the way back, we stuck with the 15. It seems safer. There are actually gas stations around. And people. Those are important too. Anyways, I just started reading The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. It's really interesting and I feel like I'm getting sucked in. Katie recommended the book to me. She's a little obsessed. Katie read the first book in three days and she's on the second book now. Catching Fire. By the same author, of course. I think I'm going to write a book. I just need a really good idea since I'm not the best writer. If you have a really good idea, it doesn't matter if you're a brilliant writer or not, does it? Maybe it does, but I've got a couple of ideas. If you have any ideas for a book that you don't want to write yourself, please share. I could use a published book. A best seller. Some extra green. I'll just have to write on napkins, because I'm that poor.
