keep it up?

So it's 8'05AM and I like to write and type and I'd like to get better at typing without looking at the keyboard, a talent I admire in others and never really wanted to learn when it was being taught to me but now I feel this whim of wanting to keep up with this blog may help me develop these typing skills. I feel like I'm just guessing when I type for the most part because I never got with that whole home row thing. But I think I may be ready to come home. If I could find a simple little typing program...geez I think this blog will be very boring to some. But carrying on... Here's some stuff I've been up to recently: For the fourth I met up with Ryan and friends over at Jeff Harvey's house and we went and watched what felt like the longest fireworks show ever. There was a finale burst at first, then a long period of singles and doubles, then a mid-nale, then more slow singles and doubles, then a second mid-nale, then even more slow singles and doubles, then the finale fianle. Wow, yeah. I wisht they would have just done all of them at once in one huge finale. Oh, then I set off some black cats in Jeff's backyard, which was more fun than the whole fireworks show. 
 
 Summer is good for weddings I guess, because Crystal, Ryan, and now I have all taken part in these celebrations of wed, all in the span of a couple weeks. My neighbor across the street who I've known basically forever tied the knot in Wichita. It was nice, a small gathering, and concise ceremony, then we all got really loose and crazy on the dance floor to songs like "Cotton-Eyed Joe," "The Electric Slide," and "The Chicken Dance" after chugging lemonade and sparkling grape juice. Fun in a this reminds me of a highschool dance scene but everyone only knows 1/4 of the people and I'll probly never see the other 3/4 again so who cares if I embarrass myself a little bit, it's all cheesy and endearing.
 
 Also, this really nice guy Randy let me borrow his sampler that I've been playing with all day today. I actually skipped work for the third time since I started a few weeks ago, but they haven't seemed to notice, they are so laid back about everything. I really should be working though because I want money to pay for my semester in the dorm and then my time I would soooo love to spend in California after I get done graji-ated. So tomorrow I'm working, celebrating my sis's berfday, then tomorrows I'm organizing for next semester and probly going to play some drum in Westport again soon. I think I'm going to the Pitchfork music festival at the end of the month too.
