Weekend Wonder

I think part of the problem why I'm not a good story teller or a conversationalist is because I always forget things that have happened or sometimes even right in the middle of my story/sentence, I forget what I wanted to say or what I was saying and then my stories are all jumbled or inaccurate. I reallyd on't know what my problem is. I try to pay full attention and I still lose it. I try to make sure I'm actively coordinating my brain and my mouth to work together, but it doesn't work. Maybe I'm just not meant to be a good story teller or a good conversationalist. Some people have a knack for it and I'm just not one of those. Even for blogging, it's so hard for me to recall what even happened to me and try to recall what I even blogged about. When things happen to me, I always think, "OK, I have to remember this so I can blog about it later" and then when it comes time to sit down and jot everything down on my blog, it's blank. I'm just looking at the white screen with the blinking cursor trying to recall something, anything to blog about. It's really pathetic. Oh good, I think I'm starting to remember some things I did this weekend...ok, here goes.

So you know I went home this weekend. Friday we had this big feast. Don't ask me what we ate, I barely remember because it was this massive food fest. I was REALLY full. Like buffet full. Early Saturday morning during breakfast, my dad told me that we were going hiking that day. Which is SUPER surprising because we don't exercise together. That just doesn't happen. But then it occured to me it's probably my parents' desperate attempt to get my brother to work out. Which is a great gallant effort on their part because I know how tired they get from work and for them to put in more time and effort to exercise with us is amazing. So that's what we did, we went hiking. Of course my brother and my dad looked like they were going to the mall. I was the only one that was dressed in proper hiking gear with my camelback and everything. We only got halfway up, we had an appointment for an oil change so we had to leave, but I think my dad did pretty well, Oscar wasn't bad either. I think my dad either really enjoyed it or he was faking it because he said he's going to make this a standard saturday morning activity with us so we can all work out more. I don't mind because it gets me exercising and out of the house. We'll see if we really keep up with it.

I went to go visit my cutie pie baby cousin twice this weekend. He's getting so big now!! He can grip things and he can recognize people now. He usually cries if he realizes you are not his mother and you are holding him. So we've got to be strategic and try to hold him a way that he can't see our face so he won't cry. I know i've been saying that I've been really baby crazy, but this weekend has made me reconsider things. Crying babies are not that fun. And there might be a chance I'll give birth to a crying baby. That would drive me insane if the baby cried all the time. My BF told me he used to be a fussy baby and cried all the time, so if he takes after my BF, then it's NOT going to be a fun parenting experience!

So you know how the first thing I do it eat breakfast in the morning. My technician made some breakfast burritos and she shared one with me. It was so good! She makes everything from scratch! Including the tortillas! Impressive huh? I think you would have really liked it since you like potatoes in burritos and it's really fresh!

So on the drive back yesterday I was listening to NPR. Yes, I listen to that now instead of music. And there was this really interesting game show that was on. It's probably for nerds because it asks you things about obscure words, definitions, phrases, and literary geography. It requires a lot of thinking. I liked it though. I told my BF about it and he was really intruiged. He normally doesn't care about what I talk about but he seemed interested in this. Another indication that he's a nerd. Good thing I like nerds. haha.

Did you get your card yet??
