Last weekend in Charlottesville was awesome. I found out near the last minute that Emily was going to be in town for one overlapping day. I hadn't seen her since Thanksgiving, and for Z it had been over a year, so it was great how that worked out. Then on Sunday morning, Kelly posted to Facebook that she needed help unloading her moving truck at her mom's house -- she'd driven down that day from Ann Arbor. So that morning, Chris, Emily, Z and I went hiking, and that afternoon, all of us minus Chris went to Kelly's, met her boyfriend Dave, and helped her move her shit. I hadn't seen Kelly in like two years. It was such an awesome coincidence that we were all in town at the same time, from all different parts of the country. My cousin Allan from Baltimore also made an appearance...it was just a great weekend full of great people.
We left early yesterday morning for Gatlinburg, and arrived around 2pm. It's just like I remember it. I went to some of my favorite little cheapo gift shops to buy some cheapo jewelry and whatnot (also got an awesome jewelry display for necklaces and earrings, but it's not big enough to hold my whole collection, so that's something I still want to get soon -- I'm thinking it would actually be a pretty simple DIY project once I get home...). I saw Ahren a few times, but he seems in no mood to acknowledge me. He's got a killer mustache these days. I'd love to talk to him and give him a hug and find out how he's doing, but I kind of don't think he'll ever be cool with that again. My mom talked to him a bit, though.
I played the evening session with my mother. It was okay. 48%...some silly things happened, and there's a longer blog coming from this experience, so I'll save it for later. We're just playing the afternoon side game today, because she has evening plans and I didn't feel like waking up early enough to do the 9am as well. I'll use my free evening to go to the gym, since I didn't get there this morning.
Tomorrow I have a phone interview with someone from Weight Watchers. I'm pretty stoked about that -- wish me luck!
