Today was a very good day.. A lot of stuff happend. I had a lot on my mind this morning too when I woke up. My mind was all over the place so much, I think when I showered in the morning I forgot to wash my hair. I was planning on talking to Chuck this afternoon about some things I've been wanting to talk to him about for a little over a month. I was mostly thinking about that. The day finally came where I would have the opportunity. We ended up meeting for an early lunch at "Country Cooking". I had been awake since 7:00 this morning so I would be ready incase there were some more things to be done with the fireworks equipment before we met. But it turns out they didn't need me in the morning so I just did a lot of reading in the morning and I stopped by the church for a bit too. I ended up stopping by one of the other fireworks stands that some other friends of ours were running and seeing if they needed help packing up stuff. Nobody ended up being there at the time. Brian from Oakloahoa ended up calling me too and I had a chance to help him out this morning. Anyway Chuck and I were finally able to meet at about 11:45. We ended up talking for about an hour and a half or so. I would say it was fairly productive. I got quite a few questions answered. We did have to kind of push it near the end though because we had to be on the other side of Roanoke for a 3:00 appointment in order to return our un-sold fireworks inventory. So after finishing up with lunch we both headed back to pick up Jo and Allie at the House. When we got there we decided to have some fun and walk in the house like we were both drunk. I think the girls just thought we were stupid though.. (oh well, whats new) lol =).. We had to take two vehicles down to Roanoke to drop off all the stuff because one was packed too full to have more then one passenger. Since chuck and I finally had our "talk" I was able to take Allie in my car while Chuck and Jo went in the other vehicle. Allie and I followed them to the drop off location. The whole process to return everything ended up taking about three hours. It was actually kind of annoying because most of that time was just waiting for our turn. Oh well.. we finally have everything done and that can be off our minds. (I still have to put pictures up online from it though.. maybe this week I'll get them done). After finishing up there we had some dinner at Shoneys and then headed back to Lynchburg. Chuck tried to challenge me with the ol' "catch me if you can" ploy... so the race was on. Due to some circumstances that turned out in my favor Allie and I ended up taking the lead and pushing ahead quite a ways. We made it to the church probalby a little over 5 minutes before they got there. Haha... eat my dust (maybe I should say eat my sand.. then it would be "South Beach" friendly). Anyway, after chuck and Jo dropped off the van they all piled in my car and we swung by some other friends house to pick up thier truck. Then we were able to return home. It had been a long day for all of us and we were ready to relax. Jo, Allie, and I decided to watch Pearl Harbor tonight. Jo didn't make it all the way through though... she ended up going to bed before it even got to the middle. Near the end of the movie I was fighting falling asleep. But I made it! I think it had been over three years since I had seen that movie last. Its a great movie. After it was over I headed back home to retire for the night.
