Cedar Point and Friends

Tuesday morning I woke up early, got packed and drove up to Jennie's house.  Seeing as I was to get there by 8AM, that put me in the middle of rush hour traffic, but it wasn't as bad as expected.  When I got there, they had just woken up so I waited for a while. I had already eaten breakfast but we went out to Tim Hortons for my breakfast #2.  It was Jocelyn's first time to Tim Hortons and I'm glad she enjoyed it! Then we were off to Sandusky! We didn't take 70 so we hit A LOT of red lights on some country highway...then we were stuck at railroad tracks waiting for the train to pass...then stopped at ANOTHER RR but I don't know why it was blocked...eventually we managed to just drive around the barriers...

It was a Beautiful day, a little less than 80F, sunny, no clouds, and a mild cool breeze. We stopped by the Meijer near Cedar Point to get card-tickets...I managed to freak out every machine I tried to buy them on...I think the people at the store were a little irritated but we eventually got out of there and to the park! The park is so big! And so fun! before the entrance there were topiaries of the peanut gallery, which I was very excited about...then found that snoopy was everywhere at Cedar Point! Rode the major rides, got bruised up, have a couple welts, lots of junk food (Jocelyn and I really went all out on Dippin'Dots)...it was an expensive day...Then I bought Flyin Ace Snoopy from the Snoopy Boutique! and we took pictures in the Pumpkin Patch! It was like being a kid, tossed around...almost literally...that day. I am still a little worn out but it was so worth it! We went to Buffalo Wild Wings afterwards...lots of food...I had caffeine...

Then I had to pee on our ride home...but there were no stops for like an hour because we were in the middle of nowhere and everything was dead.  Managed to make it to civilization and a gas station! the rest of the ride home was smooth...took a few minutes of a nap...then we got to Jennie's house...and then I drove home...very sleepy.

I didn't fall asleep right away...I was sore and overwhelmed by all the excitement of the point so I stayed up watching some really cheesy Jackie Chan movie (Spy next door).

Wednesday morning I met up with them at Easton for brunch at NorthStar Cafe, then bid adieu to Jennie & Eng and spent the next few hours bonding and shoppin with Jocelyn (we hit greaaat sales).  It was so good to catch up and just enjoy good conversation and company!

Came home, chilled...I've been a bum since then pretty much...

Got a call from ODH HR today, I start work July 5! woowoo! finally! Other than that, I'm still trying to figure out my Columbus PH internship...but they're at a conference...so I have to wait...I want to get stuff figured out!

But now, I'm just chilling with my snoopy next to me...probably headed to Tuttle tonight to find more work clothes. Here's the thing, work clothes shopping isn't all that fun because stuff is either really expensive or the styles are so boring! I wish I could work first and then get the clothes with the money I earned instead of clothes then work. Sigh* Oh well, there's a big sale event going on at Banana Republic tonight starting at 5pm, so that's probably what I'll do...scope it out. Then what? I don't know, but I'm going to enjoy the down time to myself :)
