Griffis Sculpture Park

Today me and (e:libertad) went to Griffis Sculpture Park which is near Eliictoville. It is just this massive park with trails and all along the trails there are these awesome sculptures, and then there are open areas that have like bigger huge ones. It is really hard to follow around kinda cuz seriuslyu there are at least 15 spots where the path splits into three differnt paths and it is hard to try and keep track of all the ones you went down already and which ones you didn't. I am sure we didn't see it all. Towards the end we got all the way back down thi sone hill and then saw a sign for a maze sculpture which i really wanted to see so we had to trek all the way back but it was relaly fun. It was kinda rainy like in a misty way so we were pretty wet and muddy when we were done but it was nice cuz it was still warm and also so there were really almost like noone else there. It was kinda crazy to be in this huge like park sanctuary and be alone. There is a five dollar entrance fee per person which is soooo worth it. I think a lot of the time it is an honor system though cuz when we were leaving there was noone ther eto take money just like a mahcine thing. It has sooo many scultpures, over 200 i guess.

My favorites were this one with all these huge people sclutputes around a lake and one was one the ground with like bushes growing over it and ic oudln't deicde if that was part of the look or it fell down. I also like tihs like castle one you could climb up that was like an optical illusion like you couldn't figure out how to get up even though it was just ladders and steps but it seeme dliek you were goidng down instead of up. It was really cool.

ALl in all i really recommend everyone go there, it was super dupa cool. Afterwards we went to the Elciotville brew pub for dinner whihc was not so good. I had a double peppercorn crusted hamburger with mushrooms, roasted red pepper, and blue cheese. It was HUGE, like insane huge bigger than my head. But itwasn't amazing and the homemade chiops thta came with it were not all that. I was not super impressed with th eplace. AND I WAS SO FREAKIN THIRSTY BUT THER WAS NO WAITNRESS TO BE FOUND> i had finished my first iced tea in like two seconds and she seriuosly never came back after our food was there and the stuff i got was kinda salty so i couldn't not enjoy it without a dirnk. I was tyring to slurp my empty glass as loud as possibel to draw ateentino but noone came until we were done and she brought the check. it really ruined it for me. I was dying of tihrst. I don't tihnk i would go back> Eliictoville though is really cute and I guess they are an awesome palce to be for oktoberfest.

and the bills became 4 and 0. All in all a great day!

Yummy Yummy Fondue Tummy

So I went out with (e:amanda) who I had not seen in way too long! We went to buttwerwood on main st in williamsivlle and had the chocolate fondue for 2! IT WAS SO FREAKIN BIG AND YUMMY!!! It had banana, carmalized banas, marshmallows, pretzels, strawberrys, pineapples, blueberries, three kinds of cookies hmm maybe something else too. It was soooo tasty and it was sooo good to see (e:amanda) again l. All in all a great night!

Funny story, she was telling me that she put an estrip bumper sticker on her fridge and her mom took it down cuz she thought it was like a stirp club. Funny that her mom thought she would put a strip club bumper sticker on her fridge and funny that estrip does sound liek strip club.

Ok that's all for now chadi

Regis Philbin

Don't know why I haven't really felt like writing lately though I feel like I have so much to write about but this needed to be written about. Watching Regis and Kelly this morning they had Shannon Daugherty from 90210 and the new 90210 on and like it was hilar watching reeg try to be so exicted, like this is an icon coming on our show, and pretending he was so into 90210. Kelly i could believe loved it in her day but def not reeg. he is such a good faker!

Almost a quarter century

So in like 5 days I will be a quarter century and maybe quarter life (here's hoping I live to at least 100)! That is crazy, i will be out of the category 18-24 on surveys and that is just plain nutso. by the by I take a lot of surveys cuz i like to and they are fun and so tihs is something I will have to face a lot. Usually I am so like all birthday all the time for the like the weeks leading up but this year not as much I don't know why, not that I am not excited about my birthday cuz I am , I just havne't ought about it as much for some reason. I tink i am wanting to go out and celebrate and party on saturday night but i will keep you posted on any festivities.

I got my frist gift today from my friend Jen who lives in Tennessee, she is like th emost northern gal I kno wand I don't know how she does it , expeically while her busband is in Iraq. Like with all the veg-all in a can, Wal-Marts and confederate flag deocrated cars , I don't know how she survives but she does. She sent me some crazy confederate themed things like a cookbook and stickers and someboy cowboy cheese spraders. My firstest birthday thing was a card from (e:jessbob) featuring the one and only Joan Rivers as a bobble-head , pretty awesome if i do say so myself!!!
