Most of this summer I have been somewhat...anti social. Okay, anti social may not be the best word, but since I've been "home" I have not been out as much, I haven't been on many road trips, and I haven't really even been to that many concerts. That is not to say that I have done nothing, but just not as much as I usually do. I could say it was because I was back living with my parents, or that I was working all the time, or that I wanted to help my grandparents with Dylan, but to be honest I just haven't felt like it. So after seeing Django @ Woody's last Saturday I somehow was reminded of why I love music so much. For me, the past week could not go by fast enough. I had plans to meet up with Kelly in Grapevine on Thursday to see Django. I kinda missed getting excited about a show, but I really was looking forward to listening to music and hanging out with people that I don't get to see nearly enough. I could probably write and write about Thursday night, but there really are no words. (Maybe I'll post a pic or 2 later...or maybe not) As bad as Friday was, I don't regret a thing. Yes, there are some things that probably could have been done differently, but in all it was a really fun night. Sometimes going out gets repetitive to me and those few nights that are completely unexpected are exactly what I need. The text the next morning that said "please tell us you are alive" says it all. I think that is enough about Thursday night.

When I go out on nights that I have to be up early the next morning I am always scared that I am not going to wake up. So most of the time I wake up every hour or so because I am afraid I am going to miss my alarm, but I was exhausted when I got home and to be honest I'm just glad I woke up. Sometime around the time I needed to wake up the weather got pretty bad outside. The electricity went out and the thunder was really loud. It woke me up, which doesn't usually happen so as much as I'm not a fan of weather like that I was really happy cause I'm not sure I would have gotten up otherwise. Most of the time working for my granddad is awesome...mornings after I have been out most of the night I don't really like it as much! We were not busy at all on Friday, it made the day go by really slow which is the last thing I needed but I somehow managed to make it through the day. After work I went back to my grandparents and had dinner with my family. After that I went home, got ready and met Kelly at Woody's to see Ben Danaher. I'm not sure what we were thinking but we definitely didn't stay that long. We were both tired and ready to go home so after Ben finished playing we both left. Saturday I worked until noon and then came home and took a 3 hour nap. Then I went to see my great grandmother for a little while and then drove to Colleyville to get Renee. We had decided to just go to dinner and a movie, and I was completely okay with that. There was no way I could have gone to a bar and stayed out very late. So we went to dinner and to see Julie and Julia and I came home. My parents were gone this weekend so I had the house to myself so I watched a movie in the living room, feel asleep and got to sleep in late this morning. I spent the morning cleaning and organizing a little then I met Dawn to eat and had a great time catching up with her. That is about it. It was a great weekend with some great music and some even better friends. I wish it didn't have to end but I think I need to go back to work for a few days so I can get caught up on sleep!
