2nd thanks to two people at the windom cenex station who dealt rather coolly with an irrationally upset girl. (yes, that was me.)

1:43am 5 Jul 2011

1st thanks to usd alumnus who pulled over to help me put on my spare tire when i got a flat tire outside of windom, mn. that sucked.

1:42am 5 Jul 2011

if i wait another half hour, then i can go to bed without feeling too guilty. no fireworks for this girl tonight…

1:36am 5 Jul 2011

@rizoldak i know it – this is my busiest few weeks of the summer, then i can relax… i gotta make up for antisocial winters somehow.

1:01am 5 Jul 2011

@B_Knowles i wish my parents enjoyed hgtv as much as i do, but… i guess i get to know them a little better when i’m home?

12:59am 5 Jul 2011

from-my-parents’-garden leaf lettuce and pea pods, ribs that my dad smoked yesterday, and two silly cats – being home again is awesome.

Lunch before heading out of town… and maybe more cake truffles. @ Café Brulé http://gowal.la/c/4xEpt

my dad is watching some show where people are in life-threatening situations on vacation. i wish it was time to go to lunch…

3:32pm 4 Jul 2011
