Default Road Trip

So I had a doctor's appointment in Minneapolis today and Blair went up with me. There are no pics right now but Blair said she would be uploading some later. Here is the breakdown for the day.

At the beginning of the day I had to go pick up my paycheck and so I went in to go get it and Blair chilled in the car. I take about 20 minutes and when I come out I see two squirells going at it. Ok, get your mind outta the gutter they were playing with each other. It was quite funny. So we finally got on the road and the trip down there consisted of just swapping stories about our lives and BS'ing with each other. We finally arrived to Minneapolis despite some major traffic outside of the city making me think that I was gonna be later then what I thought I was going to be. So I arrive at the appointment and Blair comes back with me. My surgeon is happy with my progress and I am down 53 lbs. My weight restriction has been lifted and I will be on semi-soft foods for two weeks and then I can eat whatever. I still have to be careful but overall they are happy. So then me and Blair made a venture to get on the light rail so that we can go to the Mall Of America. We managed to venture there ok and hopped on the light rail. I met up with a few other friends up there and we took lots of random stupid pictures! So beware for some of those. We bummed around there till about 7 and we ventured back downtown Minneapolis to get the car and head home. So I had Blair's camera and I look over and she FELL asleep on the light rail. So I took a picture of that as well. We had a little mishap getting out of the city (missed a turn) so that was fun. Shall I just say that the ride home was a bit interesting? I also have come to the conclusion that Blair is to NOT have coffee because she gets a tad bit crazy :P. Overall the day was awesome and I was glad that she got the chance to come down.

Congrats on the good report from the doctor...

I bet it felt good to spend the day with Blair - someone who REALLY 'gets it!'

You know, that's funny. Both his doctor and his dietician thought we were a couple too. Hehe.


BUT! We DID discuss a possible trip out there to Cali! It'd be so much fun!
