Bowling, etc.

I got back in Auburn yesterday from a nice, relaxing trip home.  Mom was at a golf tournament and the rain caused them to leave later than expected, so we went ahead and left Gulf Shores at about 2:30.  We stopped in Greenville to get gas, and guess who we ran into… Mom was at the exact gas station where we stopped, not planned at all!  We ended up going bowling on Thursday night with Courtney.  I won the first game with a 109, but I never did make a strike.  We ate at the restaurant in the bowling alley afterward, and Rocky was treated like a king by our waiter.  Since he didn’t want anything to eat, and he was eating the cherries out of our Cokes, the waiter brought him a bowl of cherries, and a chocolate chip cookie!  He was set, then the waiter brought him two little bags of tokens for the arcade.  Needless to say, Greg and Rocky went to spend them.  After we ate, we all went and played a little Skee Ball, and Rocky ended up with 245 tickets, and all he wanted was 24 army men (10 tickets each), then the man behind the counter gave him an extra handful.  Lucky kid.  Dad took us to Mikato Wednesday night, and it was delicious as usual, note to self: get Supercrunch sushi roll next time, because it was delicious!

Last night a bunch of us went to Supper Club to see 17th Floor perform, and they were entertaining.  I am so ready for football season – Countdown: 34 days.  I already have homework for school in a statistics class.  I have to get the book and read/review about 10 chapters.  I also have to take a Career Assessment online which I am excited to see the results, but the site is currently not working for me!  I ALSO have to print out some 13 page form and answer all of the questions before orientation.  I’m ready to get back into the school situation though, and get a better sleeping schedule! 

I just started using iTunes Radio service, and I’m liking it.  There are tons of  stations to choose from, and they load super quick.  I also downloaded a new game called Drop7 that is supposed to be good.  Anyways, down to the good stuff… here’s the rest of the pictures from this past week.  I love the one of Tojo sitting on Dad!

Home visit

I came home yesterday to come visit the family for the week.  Dad cooked us some yummy hamburgers last night, and tonight we went to an awesome restaurant called Tin Top in Bon Secour.  They have the best appetizer ever – sautéed crab claws.  One disappointment tonight though, is that what I had my heart set on – the Steamer Platter (Crab legs/Shrimp) was “out” according to our waiter, but there was a lady sitting right behind us that ordered it & got it! Well, she was the lucky lady to get the last batch!  Anyways, Greg and I plan to visit the Oasis tomorrow at the Wharf if the weather is nice, and we can get in!

Rocky is keeping Greg busy, and Tojo is keeping Dad busy.  I restored my last laptop for Rocky, and he has been playing “Spore Creature Creator” on it today.  He is now watching Greg play video games and trying to assist him… and asking him tons of questions.

The Bachelorette finale was tonight, and I was disappointed with the result, I would have liked to see her pick Kiptyn, then when Reid came back… definitely liked her to pick Reid, but she ended up picking Ed. Oh well, I don’t have to worry about keeping up with this season anymore!

Here’s a few pictures from the trip so far – plenty of Tojo, and then a few other random ones.

He's a cutie! One ear sticks up and one lays down, and he wobbles when he runs! It's adorable!
