Don't be afraid to skydive with a hermaphrodite.

It was a fantastically busy week and I'm a little glad to be sitting on my couch in my very own apartment currently starving and refusing to cook anything because I am lazy.
The week involved extensive hangouts with my best friends and quality time with family. It was amazing. I drove between Riley Center, Mt. Clemens, Lapeer, Lansing, Yale and everywhere in between. I was also able to rent a car which made things much easier on my Mom and myself because I think we were beginning to drive each other crazy.
Activities included sushi with Keena, hangouts with Greer whom I missed like crazy as well as dinner with old co-workers which was awesome. Time with the Scubes and Jen as well as Stew. I was able to see everyone I wanted for the most part and really enjoyed the time spent. I am lucky to have such fantastic friends. I played Scrabble with my 71 year old Grandma and she ended up beating me after I gave her an idea for a word that just so happened to be on the triple word score tile, damn it. After beating me she promptly put the board away to avoid a rematch and kicked me out so she could hang out with her boyfriend....wtf. I got to spend time with my nephew and his wii as well as a small amount of time reading with my niece who is adorable. Went on the annual AARP Casino trip outing where everyone I went with had a minimum 20 years on me. I got to watch my friend's cousin attempt to cover and record Katy Perry's 'Teenage dream' and spent an extremely long time trying to reach the same octave she sings at, scary. My Mom made several references to 'Justin Bieber haircuts' when anyone on tv had hair covering their forehead. I wasn't aware she was so hip. Spent NYE with my besties and we all realized we are all damn old. Ugh. In a nutshell my time spent in Michigan was fantastic and hilarious.
The plane ride back involved me sitting next to a man that appeared to have a nervous tick that required him to check to make sure his penis was still in his pants every 20 to 45 seconds. When his hands were not searching for his manhood they were in his armpits. I just kept my head in my book and tried to not look horrified.
As far as a 'year in review' post, this is all that I will say; 2010 was a big year of changes for me and I hope that 2011 follows this pattern as well.
As far as resolutions I have a few; get a passport, have more adventures with or without said passport and continue figuring out what I want. Easy enough right?
Side note....I am a big nerd and am a big fan of fellow nerds. I resolve to hang out with more people like me. ha.
