......... since we will be away we will be missing Taste of Buffalo. I have never gone and was looking forward to it but it coincides with our trip. =(((((

i am so behind in reading journals. it was because we went away last weekend and i havn't been able to catch up. now tonight we are leaving again for Jersey for a whole week. I am just going to quit while i'm behind and read when i come back.

and my car still doesn't work. the rotors (we think) are just too big and so my car will not roll. the wheels are totally locked. it sucks.

i gots me lots o packin' and laundry to do today. whoo hoo. i'm gonna get tan for once!

so we went to the adirondaks last weekend. it was sheer mountainous adventure. this girlfriend of a friend's family owns like 60 acres of goodness. even a pond! they fished, we brought katie and let her off leash, the boys shot a shot gun, we went in a rowboat, made smores, bbq-ed, some dirtbikeing going on. i wish i owned a place like that. just swimming in my own mountain spring pond! that would be awesome. katie went swimming too for a second and scratched up my tummy. she tried to climb to the top of my head. ouch.

haha. when we had more friends in town we used to have DDR parties. we have every song made for the game and all the games apparently. they are all on our tv computer. its pretty fancy, too bad the tv is smaller than we would like. ddr is for workouts for sure. i have such trouble with the quarter steps. we should have a ddr party.

on another note, i wish i brought my car to the mechanic to fix my rotors and brakes. d attempted last night and the rotors hardly fit and the pads don't fit. and i can't drive. why is it so expensive for mechanics to do work on brakes?

oh! 2 days until we go to the jersey shore! we are staying in a cabin for a week and hitting the beach. hopefully it doesn't rain. i see lots of thundershowers in the weather report. i wanted my car fixed by then so we could drive it down. i can't drive d's car because its standard and there will be heavy traffic down there in NJ. Everyone goes down the shore for the 4th. including us dumb-ees. i'm excited anyways. i have a good base tan now.

a link to border crossing wait times. i wonder how accurate these are....
