hey back from the shore
it was very fun (warning this is going to be a long entry)
on sunday my parents drove me to my aunt/grandmom's house. i went with my aunt in her pt cruiser and my grandmom went with my mom dad and brother in our van. my grandmom refuses to ride in the car with the dog.
me and my aunt left at around 9:30 and stopped at dunkin donuts. then as we were driving down 95, we didn't realize we passed the walt whitman bridge (oops). we realized we did when we passed the AIRPORT. so then we had to get on the commodore barry bridge, but there was a huge backup getting on.
once in new jersey, we had to drive through all of these small towns. after a while we just sort of got dropped onto the expressway.
after more slight delays, we got on the parkway. and then finally somers point (woot)and at that time, the bridge was OPEN!!
all in all a 2 hour drive took 4 hours.
(RANDOM FUN THINGS)
saturday my mom sat everyone in the family room and put our gifted movie in the VCR...thank god it didn't work.
on sunday i figured out what my aunt's birthday present for me was.
(another long and pointless story)
my aunt told me she would get me one of those magic bullet blender things because i love to make milkshakes and crap. before we left, i asked her if she packed hers, and she said yes. when i went inside to grab a cup out of the cabinet, i saw it there. i told her that she didnt' bring it, so then she said that edna (a family friend) was bringing hers.
when we finally got down to the shore, i noticed that edna did not unpack one. so when i confronted my aunt, she laughed and said, "oh no ,.....she must have forgotten it!." i KNEW i was getting one. later that night i asked edna a question about the magic bullet, and she said she has no clue what it is
BUSTED!!!
on monday my cousin katie and uncle bill came down. we went to the beach. it was really hot and the water was too crowded.
on monday katie made me watch "wrong turn" with eliza dushku. its the one with the cannibalistic mountain men in the west virginia backcountry. it actually wasn't that bad.
i got some good presents on monday....resident evil 1 and 2, money, various mangas....good stuff.
on tuesday katie and uncle bill left.
nothing much happened on wednesday (by this time nobody cares)
thursday was amazing. my moms cousins, (my 2nd cousins?) took us out on their boat in the bay. then we would lie down on our stomachs, only holding on to two little rings with our hands, on a circular mat like thing in the water.
i had one bad wipeout. my cousin eric would do a donut in the water, then he would drive back through the waves it made. it would make you bounce like 3 feet off the water and 2 more feet off the raft.
on one turn after going through the waves, we were going near 50 mph. my brother grabbed the ring on my side, and the raft flipped over. i skimmed the water three times on my butt.
ow
that was about it, besides my quadrupling my nickel's at cards.
it was fun
