A visit to Dallas

Today, I went to Dallas for E's birthday party. I had a really good time talking to her friends and spent a bit talking to her mom. Really nice lady, not that I am surprised at all! It was a cool restaurant with a pool randomly in the back. I guess that's just how they do it in Dallas.

When I left, I thought it would be fun to just drive through downtown Dallas and find my way back. I was really excited to add photos that I took on my phone to this post. Uploading issues have derailed my plans. Maybe I will edit it later and add these for you.

Also, all you kids out there should learn from me. When spending a lot of time outside in the sun, drinks lots of water. I wasn't feeling very well when I got home, but a nap helped take care of that.

I Fought the Law, and had to wait!

Ah the legal system! I got a speeding ticket a few weeks ago. So I went to the court last Thursday and was informed that I had to see the Judge, who only is in on Wednesday from 9am-10:30am, then back in from 1pm-2:30pm. What nice hours! So, I went back today to try and take care of the ticket. I wait in line for the appointment with the Judge, then wait in court for my name to be called. I get up there and tell him I want to plead 'Not Guilty'. I then am told I have to meet with the prosecutor. That date will not be till August 4th. Awesome! 2 trips to court already and nothing has been resolved.

On the upside, I got to wear nice clothes today, and I looked sharp. Sadly, there is no photographic evidence.

Happy Fourth!

Hope everyone had a good Fourth of July! I am happy to say I did. In the morning I had a bit of work to do. Some new guys came in and I had to move out of my apartment into another one downstairs, so I had to take care of that too. But after all the work was done, I went to Dallas and hung out by a pool with some people. I only knew one of them, 2 I had meet the night before, but the other 5 were new to me. It was nice to sit in the sun for a few hours with some cool people.

A bit of a problem arose though. I had thought I forgot my bathing suit until last night, I found the bag I had thrown it in before I left. The thing I forgot was that I had placed it in the bag when it was still a little wet, and I had left it there for almost 2 months. Not good. So I didn't go IN the pool today. Guess I'll be getting a new one soon.
