Not Your Average Jane

So, its Friday, Houston, here's what youwon't find in todays Chronicle.... Or least not that I know of since I haven't looked at it lately.... So since the last time I blogged, I finished midterms Thursday.... Then Saturday I started home.... Then I had 2 blowouts and some other stuff outside Texarkana Saturday, so I got towed into town (Texarkana), and found the service dept. of Toyota closed and as it turns out they had to order parts on Monday and it was all fixed Tuesday.... Or so I thought... But I get ahead of myself... So I was stuck in a Courtyard Marriot in Texarkana Saturday to Tuesday... I finally get back into Houston Tuesday night and Wednesday I run errands around town so Mom and I can go to Gruene Thursday... More car drama, it has to be put in the shop and fixed again.... Insurance got involved and long story short I just got it back on the way back from New Braunfels tonight.... But in better news I did just get back from New Braunfels.... :) Ok, so it was like 2 hours ago, but thats beside the point.... We went to Gruene yesterday and hung out in town and went to Gruene Hall last night to see some blues guy play... Then we stayed at a place called the Gruene Apple B and B (tackiness incarnate and they charge out the wazoo to boot!).... I got a new Gruene Hall shirt and Doug Moreland's new CD AND a Stragglers shirt (Property of the Stragglers - though I don't know if I would really want to actually belong to any of them, the whole band guy thing.....).... Then today we went to San Marcos and did the outlet stores and I got a couple of pairs of 9 west sandals.... Good times.... Then we went to Wimberly and Canyon Lake to just sorta see the Hill Country... Mom tried to convince me to live in Wimberly instead of NB, but she went about it all wrong, she emphasized stuff I don't like and dissed NB... Bad way to go about it, she should know better than that by now... I also found out b4 we left yesterday that Bleu was playing in Galveston, I told mom and she was like we could do that instead, but as much as I adore the man (even with the band guy thing and the fact he looks like a turtle without his hat) I needed a dose of hill country... And I got it thank god.... Though most of the time we were worried about the damn car.... So it was good times, but not exactly relaxing times... Now I can't decide whether to go back to school 2morrow or Sunday... I'm so tired of being in a car and traveling and I know I won't get any homework done on Sunday (which is one of my main reasons for going back early...) so I just don't know..... I'm all gassed up and I have cash, just have to pack so we'll see.... Thats about it for now... Laters!
