Happy New Year!

I haven't updated in 3 million years because I am a LOSER, so please don't hate me.

HAPPY NEW YEAR and belated Merry Christmas. My Christmas vacation was FANTASTIC and just what I needed desperately. I spent about a week and a half in Michigan and it was soooooooooooooooo wonderful. I got to see all of my friends and family and still got a ton of rest.

Joey came to visit the 29th to yesterday when we both drove back to Georgia together. Every single second he was there was wonderful. Thursday when he got in we went to Kim's house and hung out with Aimee & Matt, Josie, Michelle & Ray, and Kim. It was great. All my best buds got to meet him and they totally hit it off. After some interesting conversation (ha ha ladies) we went up to Drinks Saloon... which is a little ghetto for me, but it was $1 beer night, so I was a happy camper :)

Friday was family day and we met up with my Dad, Rachel, Steve and Natalie in Birch Run for lunch. Then we all went to Frankenmuth for a few hours. We headed back home after that and went to my aunt's where Joey got to meet EVERYONE, even the neighbors :) It snowed SO pretty that night and I made Joe go outside with me to watch.

Saturday was New Years Eve... I made Joey go to the mall with me so I could get an outfit for the night, where he didn't complain ONCE even though I went into the same store 3 different times and had a few meltdowns about my outfit... I have the best freaking boyfriend in the world! :) We then started off the evening at Aimee and Matt's for their murder mystery dinner (very fun) then after the ball dropped we went to Barry and Kevin's for a bit then ended up at Michelle and Ray's house.

Sunday we went out to dinner with Aimee & Matt, and Michelle & Ray in Greek Town. After dinner we went to the casino where I won $40 from $1 on the nickel slots!!! I was so excited, I never win anything! Everyone was EXHAUSTED from the previous night's festivities so after an hour of Michelle and I laughing uncontrollably due to exhaustion, we called it an early night. Joey and I ended up playing some of my atari games he got me for Christmas (AWESOME) and trying to beat my sister's high score on Miss PacMan (Which he did, sorry Rach!)

Monday we were very lazy and SUPER tired from all the running around so we just hung out. I ended up going shopping with my mom for a bit, then all three of us went over to visit my Grandpa. I took Joey to Stroh's Ice Cream in Wyandotte and can you believe the man has never heard of Superman or Blue Moon ice cream! What a deprived childhood he must of had. He also had no idea what Vernors is. It's SO FUNNY! I love stuff like that... Anyway, he loved Michigan.

My sister has a bunch of pictures from Christmas eve I need to get from her, and Ray has a bunch of pictures from New Years eve I need to get so you can see how much fun we had! I will post them asap. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! I wish I didn't have to go back to work on Friday. Being away from that job for this long has really reiterated how much I HATE it and am miserable working there and living where I am living. I wish I could get a job back home! Oh well, once I get out of this apartment and find another job (please keep praying!) I'm sure I will feel better....

Well, I'm off to pick Joey up and head down to his parents to visit for a bit... I promise to try and update more often!
