A Mini Vacation almost in the books.

Been a rough few months around here for the twiz, I'm not going to lie to ya. Various serious life changes have occured so naturally I wanted to get the hell out of Dodge (or North Central WV as it were) and not think about important stuff for a few days.

It took a little bit of bribery and a lot of good will but I was able to take six days off from work to visit my buddy Jeremy in upstate New York. All in all it was a really good time and just what the Doctor ordered. Well, a doctor would have ordered it but since I don't have health insurance I self medicated.

We went to the shooting range and fired off a couple rounds of nine millimeter goodness. I also attended a Anniversary party for one of J's co-workers, and everyone was really cool. By some of the comments made I think that the majority of New Yorkers think that people from West Virginia are savages that eat their own young. This couldn't be farther from the truth as we prefer our meat gamey and tough and small children are too tender for our hillbilly taste buds!

The rest of the time I just hung out with Jeremy and his wife Ali. Playing World of Warcraft, watching that Izzard guy on dvd, and chatting about quote-unquote stuff.

Now I'd like to thank everyone that made this trip possible (In no particular order).
My Parentals for renting me a car because mine is a busted joint with only three wheels, and for food and gas money.
Jeremy and Ali for opening their home again to that savage from West Virginia, and for the nice swag I brought home.
My boss Laura for scheduling me these days off because I threatened her with bodily harm if she didn't.
All the degenerates that come into my bar and tipped me so I would have a little extra spending money.

I still have one more day off before I have to go back to work, which will probably be spent doing laundry and making up to my cats so they don't go all feral on me. Then it's back to the job and the life that is Twiz!

Again, thanks to all that made the past week better than the previous eight. It was much appreciated.
