Giddy up! This afternoon I am heading out for the weekend to the big city of Des Moines to catch up with some folks there. I get to see my college roommate Brina, my Uganda friend Kasey, and my all-my-life buddy Andy (who is going to be a daddy soon!) and meet his wonderful wife Laura at long last. :)

I love roadtrips. I love seeing old friends.

Something I don't love...finding out I live with 30 miles of a nuclear power plant. Ignorance is bliss, that is no lie. I have lived in ignorance for the last 20 years and was perfectly content doing so! Last night my buddy Jerry and I went to visit the newlyweds, Micah and Julie, who live within just a few miles of this plant. We found out that they would be vaporized instantly...and where I live, well, we have a grand total of about 60 seconds warning. Giddy up. South Carolina is starting to sound even better! Haha.

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!
