What a Weekend: Part 1

This past weekend saw me  living through QUITE a few adventures

Friday: LOLfest, an independent short comedy film festival that I went to with a couple of girl friends. The movies were hilarious and wildly inappropriate, the company was all older than us, but the atmosphere was foreign and excitingly refreshing and unlike anything I've ever experienced. I felt so cool being downtown..like I should have been wearing an all black ensemble to look extra edgy.. And then, cause we were adventurous? We decided to play a few pranks...but that's CLASSIFIED.

Saturday: all day, rain and shine, my siblings and I fought to the death (of our calves and shins) in gladiator ball, aka the best game ever, at our neighbors house. A post about gladiator ball will soon follow. But we played in the dusty, hot sun and then it started raining.... So we kept playing until the whole pit became a mud slop, so we just turned it into mud wrestling in the pourin rain until we felt good and covered in mud, and then we went swimming and skim boarding in a ditch by the neighbors house. SUCH an afternoon... Thinking about it, went straight to church with wet hair from the rain and haven't showered since then.................... Oops!

Sunday: family day. We had our usual family yard work-filled morning, and then went out to the intercostal canal on our ski boat for a bit of waterskiing and wake boarding. THAT was so much fun.,, I. Wasting tired to ski so I kneeboarded. Been working to learn some hardcore tricks on the kneeboard, just to be impressive, ya know? But I was a little over ambitious on one jump and came down REEEEEAALLY hard on my head and have a concussion. I am concussed. My brain experienced a mildly traumatic blow. Ouch. It hurts. Oh and did I mention that my ex came for a visit after we got home from the river? Wellll he did. Ill have to write a follow up post sometime.

Monday: weelll today I've been livin with the side effects of a concussion, basically a splitting headache and weird lack of focus, balance, and inability to fully think clearly. It's been really exciting. I did go babysit for a few hours and just did a lot of playing. There js CERTAINLY something to be praised when it comes to strict parenting... But a dear friend of mine got her wisdom teeth out so my best friend and I went visit her and then to dinner. We had the loveliest time catching up and planning some adventures for this week and summer until school starts! Can't wait!!!!

Part 2 to follow tomorrow. My brain hurts.
