protect your neck.

i started planning a trip to new jersey over labor day weekend.

to see the orange county supertones.

but it's not going to work out.

for at least 4 days, it's all i could think about. you should have seen me sitting here, listening to their music, daydreaming about new jersey. i found a place to stay that is not a hotel. i googled the route. there are A LOT of toll roads on the east side...toll roads are weird.

sigh.

i was in such a strange place since i found out about them. it's hard to explain. i keep saying that. it's like i felt a connection to a part of me that doesn't exist anymore. that's the best i can do.

other news...

i went shopping for a present for my new niece. and my old one.

i was so happy that my little pony, strawberry shortcake, and care bears are making a comeback. but kailey is still too little for that. i really would like her to turn 3, so every toy is not a threat to her life. the choking hazard danger goes away IMMEDIATELY when they turn 3, right?
