What is to be said of today?
Graduations happened today. Erin didn't go to them. Mercifully, she got to babysit. Not as though she doesn't love her brother or anything, but graduations are something very closely akin to being water-boarded.
There WAS a delightful graduation brunch this morning however, though the only thing of note was the ice sculpture surrounded by the piles upon piles of breakfast pastries. It was a wonderful sight.
The car remains broken, and Erin's parents are frantically trying to figure out how in blazes they are going to get home. They are currently looking into taking a train. There is no possible way to explain here how rad that would be.
Otherwise the day was uneventful, and Erin's thoughts turned once again to her apartment and her roomies. She gave a longing sigh and then returned to her business of being difficult about stopping off to visit historical locations. And yes, Erin IS a giant child about these things. Monkeys are fun. Science museums are fun. Reading plaques is NOT fun. History Schmistory.
Winter Quarters was cool, however. They got to wander through a pioneer cemetery. It was very awesome, but Erin got very worried about the in-ground gravestones that were getting overgrown with grass and made herself upset because she couldn't do anything about it...

I can't imagine the stress of going on vacation and having your car break down. Ugh. Please be extra nice to your parents as they are probably having difficult not killing everyone around them. Maybe forgo one fit each day; give in on something. C'mon, you can do it for them.
Plants are people too.

Oh, I've given in on many things. I just wasn't in the best of moods yesterday and would have preferred to sleep in the car.
