Chris came up for a night and the next day we took Jeremy swimming. He didn't want to go in but I grabbed him and brought him in. He was sacred at first but started having a good time. I took him swimming one other day while they were on vacation and I couldn't get him out of the pool. He was in the tube by himself and he didn't even want me to hold on to him.
We took Jeremy to Big Wheel and for some reason he pissed behind one of the arcade machines. The next day right after breakfast he went outside and was pissing behind the garbage cans. We were having problems with him running outside when he was the kids next door but he has since stopped.
Chris got a job! About time. And he's making pretty decent money in tips. Now at least my parents dont' have to worry about paying off his student loans when they come due. I have a feeling that they came due already but he said otherwise. He needs to take responsibility for one thing and that's the loans. He can call and get them deferred or change the terms if the payments were too high. But with the tips he's been making, he can easily afford them and the Iphone he wants.
Mom got a new dog! He's a cute shitsui. I thought she was doing ok a few weeks after Fluff died but she started crying to me randomly on the phone one night about how she's depressed. Dog got her a dog soon after and she seems much happier. It's definitely keeping her busy. We went to see the dog on Saturday. I took Jeremy around to play with Dustin and Dacey for a little while as well. He had fun with them. The three of them together are maniacs.
Chris and I got kayaks! He was debating on what to buy with his first paycheck and after passing up the Iphone and PS3 he settled on the kayak. I've always wanted on and I was debating on whether or not to buy one. It was a big purchase but I think it was well worth it. I was supposed to meet him on Sunday morning in Dickson City. I called him late on Saturday night and told him I wouldn't be going. He got the yak and for a damn good price (200 off online retailer, 100 off their regular price) and I had to get one. I drove to mom's early on Monday and had him watch Jeremy while I took the Jeep down. I couldn't get the truck open and after messing with it for an hour, decided that I would have to put it on the roof. Chris and I took the yaks out in PCP. Jeremy was in the seat with me and he was making me shit my pants so I stayed near the shore. Headed home and went to Beltsville after dinner. Jeremy was wearing track pants but he wanted to go in the water and he got all wet.
Scoped out the Lehigh the next day. Jeremy had fun throwing rocks in and now he's always asking me to take him fishing. I'm going to this week. I went that night to the Lehigh and had a good time. I was nervous in the choppy water.
Chris came up on Friday night after work. We went to the Lehigh early the next morning. We planned to paddle up river as much as we could but gave up after clearing one small set of choppy water. It's just too much work. Going up took 20 minutes, coming down only 5. We went down the river a bit and had a blast doing it. We were making our way down and got stuck in a shallow section. Had to walk out of there. Forgot to bring my sandles and bruised my feet on the bottom of slippery rocks. Put on my sneakers and then walked into the middle of the river to paddle some more. Tried to make it back up the choppy waters and it was just too much work so we took the yaks out in a clearing in the woods and I ran to get the Jeep.
Holly dropped off Jeremy at her parents' and we went out to dinner. We went to a Mexican Restaurant in Jim Thorpe. The food was pretty decent and they had awesome fried ice cream with churros. Came home and watched 'Sunshine' which we both liked. Did 10 man Hodir hard mode. I didn't win the fucking staff and it was really nice so I was a bit pissed off. We tried Freya with one keeper but everyone gave up after a few attempts.
Sunday we just hung out the whole day and then Holly came with me to hockey.
Been getting a bit tired of Warcraft. I finally got a Mimiron kill and I tanked it last night because Wilkie was too tired to raid. Last week not enough people signed up/showed up for the Yogg Saron night and it pissed me off. The best part of raiding is doing new bosses, especially the end boss. We tried Flame Leviathon with 4 towers up and it proved too hard so we tried two and did it easily. I'd like to just concentrate on doing all hard modes on 10 man because no one really needs any gear from there anymore. I got my helm with emblems last night. Going to craft new boots from runed orbs.
Downloaded the Age of Conan trial and I like it. The graphics are nice and even though it's the typical MMO style quests, the combat is more fun. The voice acting is also decent and adds a dimension to the game. I'd rather sit and listen to a story then read quest logs. I rolled Bear Shaman and the game gives you a level 50 character after you have 1 level 50. Good incentive, especially if you're not fond of your class. I bought the collectors edition off ebay for 18.00 shipped so you can't beat it. Chris is downloading now and we'll see if he plays. I also bought an Aion beta key off ebay. The game is polished and nice but I doubt i'll get it when it comes out. I'm going to play the beta weekends and see how fun it is. I haven't gotten my wings or gotten to the pvp zones and we'll see how fun they are. Champions Online is also releasing soon and I may pre order just to try it out in beta. Going to buy Battlefield 2142 so Chris and I can play together.
I've been playing the shittiest hockey ever. My passes are shit and I can't stickhandle the puck. We lost last week in a shootout and won this week in a shootout.

Father's Day was nice. Holly made me french onion soup. She bought me the warlock figure. Bonny told me there was no hockey and then they had it. Pissed me off when I learned this.
Went to mom's but Chris wasn't there. He went to Atlantic City. We had a nice dinner but I was bored while I was there.
Went to mom's to visit with Jeremy. Aunt Mare came up that morning and they were all set to see Cheriffa the next morning. We just hung out and got Chinese food. Chris and I played tennis and I won in the tiebreaker with a score of 12-11. I had come back from 3 sets down to win. Jeremy was playing with Jerrod again.
Had a nice 4th. Went to get Jeremy an ice cream from the ice cream truck and wound up chasing it down. Afterwards we went swimming in the neighbors pool. Holly learned how to swim! Jeremy didn't go in the pool with us. We hung out outside for a while and then went to see the fireworks at Jim Thorpe. We got there for 8:30 and then learned the fireworks weren't until 10. They had a 60's cover band which was ok in the beginning but got annoying towards the end. There were a few games and rides and we wasted some time there. It was small and you had to purchase a ticket to buy food. I did the speed pitch and got a max of 64 on my last ball. Didn't know if i'd break 60. I'd like to try it again. Jeremy played on the playground and then we sat in the grass waiting for the fireworks. The fireworks were pretty decent. Probably go there every year. Holly originally planned Allentown and I wasn't looking forward to that with all the traffic. Stopped and got donuts on the way home.
Scored the winning goal in a shootout. I was the third shooter. Fatboy wanted to shoot but I had a really decent game. I didn't say I wanted to shoot but Ryan suggested it. I decided beforehand that I would go 5 hole on Tye and he got a piece of it but it barely rolled in. The last game I played I started yelling at the dickhead on the other team. He checked me in front of the net and I was going to nail him but I didn't get out there at the same time as him.
We went shopping and got ourselves a 23" monitor and some new curtains. The monitor is awesome. We were debating on whether or not to get a laptop but decided against it at the last minute.
Holly and I were watching a show on the computer and Jeremy was watching a movie down here when his TV went out. Holly flipped the circuit breakers and after flipping the main, lost all power. Dale came down (it was 12 at night) and he rigged it so we would have power for the night. The next day I went to Shea's, then called Home Depot and the guy gave me an attitude. Drove down to Lowes and they didn't have it and the guy suggested a place in Allentown. Found it in a downpour after changing directions a few times. The guy told me they didn't make those breakers anymore and we'd have to take the bar out in the box. Dale came a few hours later and he took the covers off the outlets in the computer room. He found 6 mice in the outlet we plug the computer into! They had all crammed themselves in there. The box should've only take a few minutes but it took hours to get the wires to stay in. It was ridiculous. We would put them in all the way and screw them down and they would come right out.
We were stuck on Thorim for a few weeks after getting him to really close a few times (1%, 4%). We got him down and then got Freya down and the guild got Mimirom down on the Saturday night (which I didn't sign up for). I bought the chest piece w/ emblems after losing the rolls. On Saturday night we got 10 man Sarth plus 3 drakes. I didn't originally get invited but since someone dropped out, I got the chance. We did it after a few attempts and it wasn't too bad. It drops a drake and we're going to farm it. Been doing multi boxing so I can get my Druid up to 60. Playing a priest and mage at the same time. They're both at 51-53. It's starting to get annoying but I only have a few more hours to go. Then I'm going to transfer the Priest to my regular account and maybe level up the druid.
