Missed another day of bloggin’....But I was out at my brother’s place and got home a little late and a little car sick...

I had a real good time over there. Chris showed me how he could play old Apple II plus games on his computer. We played “up and down”, “Hard hat mack” and “Minautor”..ahhh the classics, he will tell me how to do it for my computer too...soon I hope..!

Came home from work early today. I felt a funny this morning. Actually it only really hit me once I had gotten to work. I felt a little dizzy and nauseous... So I was going to trey and tough out the day but what for really? To feel even worse? So I decided to call it quits to come home and rest. Which is what I’ve been doing. When I got home I got right into my jammies, and cuddled under my cover s and went to sleep for like 4 hours. It felt real good, but now I’m a little groggy.

Well it’s tuesday, and at least I know I can count on one person to submit topis for the endangered topic tuesday. Yes I know George ha too but talking about trepidation and 10$ lap dances isn’t quite what I had in mind.

TOPIC TUESDAY: FAVOURITE VACATION

Since I’ve never really been on a vacation as an adult, I’ll have to say that the time that my Dad, Lucas, Aimee and I went to Ocean City New Jersey. This was like 12-13 years ago.....when I was about 10-11???

We drove all the way there. Nine hours in the car..the small two seater car. I remember being crammed into the back seat, this was before the days of me getting car sick so long drives were never a problem.

So we drove and drove, passed by New York, made pit stops along the way. But I remember being so excited when we were almost there. It would be the first time I had been to the ocean and I couldn’t wait!

We eventually got there and we drove right to the beach, which was closed but we went anyway. And we all jumped into the ocean, fully clothed and splash and swam around. It was really very exciting.

We then when to my Aunt Sophie’s house where we were going to be staying. She lived, no joke, two blocks fro the beach. I love my aunt but she’s a little whacky. She’s really into crafts, but the kitshy kind of crafts...lots of sequins on everything. She had all these display cases in her house with dolls, doilies and knick knacks that she had made.

We stayed there for two weeks I think and everyday we went to the beach. My dad took us out shopping for new bathing suit and bought me my first bikini. God when I think about it know it was so hideous! It was on OP which was sooo cool to me and the bottoms were baby bleu with a band of peach at the top that had like silver, blue, ;ink fabric paint in a weird design and the top was peach and twisted in the middle so that one boob was peach, the other blue...oh man...and we shopped around at he surf shops too and I can still remember the smell of the sun block we bought. I was that stick sunblock that surfers put on their noses and under their eyes...not very styling of my.

We also went to the boardwalk which was really awesome. We bought the delicious pastries and I bought (or my dad bought rather) friendship bracelets and anklets, all of which I lost in the ocean. And we saw so many things...

I remember that when we went to the beach in the morning, the bach was covered with dead horseshoe crabs. If you don’t know what these are, you’re lucky. The look like something from the dinosaur age, really creepy. I saw dolphins jumping in the wave, got a bite from a sand shark and saw tons of hot lifeguards!

I made a friend there too. I don;t really remember her name, but just know that we hung out almost the entire time I was there. My sister would tan with my aunts young neighbours...that’s it, just tan.

And we just basically spent the entire trip on the beach or on the boardwalk. One complaint thought. My Aunt is a little...how can I put this...cheap. We ate spaghetti and crappy tomato sauce about 90% of the time we were there. And I don;t mean fresh spaghetti either. She’d make a huge quantity=uantity on monday, and that would last us until friday...We ate it every night while watching Threes’ Company. And that was the first time I had ever taste Dr.Pepper too. We didn’t it have it in Canada yet at hat point.

SO that was my favourite vacation.. I’m going to try and go back to Ocean City. Maybe next summer for a little vacation a t the beach... I would have liked to have gone this year, but time just went by too fast, this way I can have time to really plan it out.
