Old friends new friends.

I guess I should really call this "Friends from long ago" as to not imply that, A) My friends are old and 2) well I can't think of two at this point, my mind seems to have gone blank... Anyway, that being said I went out with a long time friend of mine last night and her boyfriend. I have known Nikki for... well for a long long time. My Father worked with her Mother up here in Washington and we were born in the same hospital. Not quite sure we met at that age but whatever. The first time I remember meeting her was in good old Ridgecrest when I moved there in the 5th grade. She a birthday party I was invited to and when my Dad walked me to the door her Mom answered and they both were suprised to see eachother in the same town, let alone tiny little R/C.

So anyways, we went out and had a great time. We only had time for one beer because she had to work in the morning but still it was good to see her and finally meet Tony. He seems pretty cool. He seems like a quiet guy but still like I said we only hung out long enough for a beer. We are all going to try and get together tonight because she doesn't work in the morning, he does but he owns his buissness so he can go in when he feels like it. It's great being up here amoung friends and family I just wish the circumstances were diffrent.

So tired.

As I am still very tired, I warn you, this might not make much sense. I went to Albuquerque and Soccoro this weekend to see my sister and help a friend move back to Ridgecrest. I had fun in Soccoro but the night ended early for me due to lack of sleep and too much booze, a bad combination. It didn't seem like so much booze but I think with the combination of being awake somewhere betweeen 36 to 40 hours, did its number. I spent one night there and spent the rest of the weekend with my sister. I acually didn't tell her I was coming down and suprised her at work...she cried. Tears of joy I hope. We ended up going to the Balloon Fiesta for the Balloon glow, but it was cancelled due to weather. We woke up the next morning to go see the balloons actually fly but again, cancelled due to weather. I decided to stay one more night and go in the morning for one more shot and...almost cancelled due to weather. They got a late start but I got to see them for the first time in years. I don't know what it is about Hot Air Balloons but I love them very much. My sister and I had a great time with her daughter at the Feista but unfoutunatly her Husband had to work. He is a cool guy and has many of the same interestes as I do. When we hung out with him it was great. We didnt do much other than watch a few episodes of Flight of the Concords, which is funny as hell, but it was a great time. I made it safe back to Hell...I mean Ridgecrest and am now busy as a bee. I also intend to get flicker on here to share pics soon as well. Don't hold your breath though.
