I have so much I could write today, but I need to keep it short, so I will write a couple random thoughts...
I had a fantastic weekend. The Amish fundraiser I went to Friday night was so much fun. I love how easily the world of the Amish here in Virginia blends with the outside world, despite the obvious differences. I truly admire and often envy the simplicity of their lives. It is not surprising that most youth choose to live the Amish life, despite having ample time to experience life outside of that. There is something idyllic about their existence.
The rest of the weekend was quite interesting as well. Once again I must say I have the most eclectic and wonderful friends. I experienced a little bit of everything this weekend, from "redneck" shenanigans in Boonsboro (which translates to riding in the bucket of some track hoe thing like a fair ride), a night out on the town Saturday and staying out way too late, to a very revitalizing run with a friend who took it easy on me on Sunday (despite the fact I hadn't run for almost 2 weeks). I completed my weekend with Barnes & Noble, and dinner with a friend that kept me laughing, and gives great advice/perspective to life, and who thankfully can forgive me for my penchant to "open mouth and insert foot". Seriously I need to learn to keep my thoughts to myself, but for some reason I've decided life is too short not to speak my mind, even if my thoughts accidentally fly out of my mouth in between spoonfuls of yummy potato soup :). Plus I know (okay hope) that most of my friends will love me no matter what I say, just like I do with them. I also managed to get my house clean and some schoolwork done. All in all it was a very refreshing weekend!!!
