popping in for a peek

Summer's almost over, I can't believe it! Last year I practically lived on tv.com--I've found some really good friends on here, enjoyed a lot of the blogs and the Bleach forum, and even used their messaging system to all get-out. This year's been a bit different...I dunno, I guess I just got bored with the forums, and blogs are either too frequent or too infrequent. Such is life, right? It's never exactly as I've pictured it in my head. So, if you even noticed I was gone or not commenting on your blogs, I'm sorry.

I've enjoyed these warmer months, kicking it off with a trip to California then cruise with my husband's family. Spending time with the fam (especially a non-stressed husband XD) was fabuloso, my brother came home from Russia after two years abroad, I got to hang out with two of my favorite people for a few days, I met a "clone" of myself online...she's totallyaninja's friend and a total sweetheart...oh, and there're all those family reunions and parties that fill a summer. Still to come, floating down a river in a tube, buying a new car (hopefully a Mazda3!! I inexplicably LOVE them), a picnic or three, and hopefully a few more hikes. Then, I get to go to Arkansas to visit my best friend, Willa, for our birthdays, which are only a day apart. ^_^ I'm excited.

So anyway, what have you guys been doing all summer?
