   Warning: Another Long Post Ahead!





Howdy, everyone! I'm back! Whoohoo!! ^^ I missed coming around to your sites but was able to do some visiting yesterday. Glad to hear you all are doing all right! *hugs everyone*

From reading some of your comments, I think I might have confused some of you. Some thought I was vacationing at Maryland. *shakes head and points to profile* No, I'm from Maryland and went to North Carolina in the Outer Banks. ^_^

My Vacation - Brief Recap
The following events will be in white. If you don't feel like reading them all, just skip through them. I tend to ramble on and on and on... Lol
My vakay went really well. It was from Saturday to Saturday. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures as of right now. I need to figure out how to get them on the computer.

Saturday
We intened to leave around 7 a.m. However, our leader lost his keys, so we wound up leaving around 8:30. *shrugs* No big deal. We shortly got very hungry and stopped at a Cracker Barrel. Mmmmm - Good eats!
I was driving my van-full of people and stuff. This would be a 5 hour trip, and I've never driven that much before. I wanted to do so to gain the experience. *looks around* Did that sound like an RPG? Lol. The drive did seem very long with too much "brake and go." So annoying. But finally, we got there around 5 p.m.
Our house was nice: it held all 17 of us without making it feel as though we were on top of each other. We unloaded our gear and did some shopping. Some ladies had already prepared food for dinner: lasagna! Whoot! That was soo tasty. ^^

Sunday
Today, some of us girl went to the beach by ourselves. We wanted to wear our bathing suits freely without any of the fellows being around. Just for modesty's sake, you know? So that was a lot of fun, although it was very windy it made tanning not enjoyable and made my friend's umbrella fly away. XD
Today was also my friend's birthday: she turned 19. *hugs Emily* She and her family were in another part of the area, only 2 minutes away driving. We went over to their house around 7 p.m. or so and brought desserts. I still need to get her something. *hangs head* I guess it'll be her belated-birthday/early Christmas gift. ^^; Hehehe..

Monday
I honestly forget what we did on this day. I do recall we had shrimp and scallop alfredo for dinner... O_o Oh wait, we went to the beach again. This time we hung with Emily's family and another family as well. So there was a good bunch of us at the beach. The water was still great. There was a lot of dunking and mud-flinging going on. XD Oh yeah, I also kayaked in the ocean. It was fun, but I did get knocked out a few times. My ankle sorta hurts. ^^'
I also stayed up until 3:30 a.m. to work on a 1000-piece puzzle. Lol

Tuesday
Today was a chillin' day. It was me and two others who volunteered to cook tonight. Since we prepared a pot roast, we just hung in the house just to be sure it went all right. And it did... We did have plenty to eat while there! Lol.

Wednesday
Some of us decided to go fishing this morning. Well, it was decided yesterday, but I didn't know any of the details. This included the fact that I didn't know I had to be out of the house by 6! Noooo...!! I was kicking against that because I didn't hear until 10 p.m. Tuesday. *shakes head* Oh well, right?
We had to be at the dock by 8. Twenty other people would be joining us for this 4 hour fishing trip. Do any of you get sea sick? Just wondering.
The fishing trip started off slow. I didn't think we'd get a bite at all! But it actually wasn't too long before my friend caught her first fish: a flounder. Funny thing was the firstmate making her kiss the fish! Lol. How mean... You should've seen her face and heard her screaming. All of my friends caught something, including me. And we all had to kiss our first fish. Hahaha! I'll try to get pics of that.

Thursday
Today was an eventful day! Em's group of people joined up with a bunch of ours. We went to Cape Hatteras, which is a lighthouse. What's special about this one is that a while ago, it was moved on a track a half a mile from where it used to be. It was rescued due to the weathered shores that would've engulfed it. Anyway, we went up the lighthouse, all 249 steps of it. ^^ It was quite the climb but beautiful nonetheless.
After the lighthouse, we went to Dirty Dicks, a seafood restaurant. Because we didn't really like calling that, we dubbed it "Double D's." ... Did any of you ladies catch that? Lol. The food was all right. Reminded me of Red Lobster.
Following our time at Double D's, we went to a golf course and played some putt-putt. I stunk so bad: only got 58 while 42 was ideal. Haha. We ended the day eating ice cream from Cold Stone.

Friday and Saturday
Not much happened these days. We tried to do some last-minute-souvenier shopping, more time at the beach and packed up our gear. It was a great time! I left there closer to my friends, with 10 spider bites, and NO SUNBURN!!

New Theme... Sorta
I changed my theme to suit the upcoming holiday, Holloween. ...Get it? HOLLOWeen? Bleach? ...Ok, whatever...

I miss my time at the OBX so much. I think I left my brain there because I had a hard time functioning at work yesterday. School might prove to be a hard mistress today too! Oh the agony of it all..

I'll try to make some more visits. Take care you all! *hugs*
