First Return
Baby and I went to America. We heard that things were cheaper there, and that there were places where you could look in all directions and just see vast expanse, nothing by human beings.

They had a party for us at my cousin's farm in Beaver County. My favorite part is when we jocularly inquired if the hamburgers we were eating were from the cows in the pasture. A few minutes later, Eddie came out, blinked and told us of course, from about two weeks ago. My mom targeted Nathan to take pictures for her, which he was kind enough to oblige

I took my little cousin Anthony out on the quads, and had to drive with one arm as I clipped him to me with the other. There was a huge conflagration in the field, and he pointed at it and said "fire," his only word for the entire trip. I drove through the smoke

We went to this party on the top floor of a building on A. It was a housewarming for a 20something record exec and, according to one source, the fact that he was NYC born-and-raised meant he had "15 years on the rest of us." ACK! I was making these really good jokes about milky drinks that the girls were way too Tin Man to laugh at. Anyways, the roof was nice.

Thanks to everyone, you made our trip awesome! Though it was way too short to even percieve what was happening. Didn't Blink-182 write a song about this?
