It's Just Micheal

Last week Jenny and I flew off to San Francisco, CA to be with her brothers during their liver transplant. Trent donated 60% of his liver to their brother, Nick. Both are still in the hospital, but recovering very quickly and will be going home soon! I came back to Missouri yesterday, but Jenny will stay in San Francisco to help out with taking care of her brothers during the long recovery from home. Today I’m driving to Springfield to pick up Kodi so that Jenny won’t have to worry about it when she gets back, so tomorrow I will be making a larger post with pictures!

We are coming close to the end of the Holiday season. In just over an hour it will be Christmas Day. Children will be waking up with anticipation of opening their gifts and playing their games. Parents will be elated with the joy of their children. All will be happy, for at least a few hours. There will at least be more happiness at one time than most other times.

My much needed time away from work and Columbia has finally started. I made it down to Springfield yesterday around 2pm. I was wanting to head down the night before, but I just had too much to get together and cleaned up around my apartment, plus I got to sleep more. It is so nice to not have to worry about work.

So last night after dinner Jenny, Mark and I went to the Mudd House in downtown Springfield. I had a frozen Tahiti Vanilla Latte. It was amazing, very well balanced between a coffee flavor and vanilla. We then walked around the square, decided that there wasn’t much to do downtown other than bars, so we came back to the Talbert’s house. We just chilled a bit, I took Mark back home, and then came back and went to bed. I slept for 13 hours!! I couldn’t believe how tired I was. Today we will be heading down to the Arkansas border to go camping. I’m extremely excited about this weekend. I will be writing a new blog post when I get back on Monday about the weekend. Until then…

So I have made another journey to St Louis, only a week after my last trip. This time the main reason is to work at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater for the John Mayer concert. I’m not sure what “work” will be involved, but I’ve been told that I don’t have to work during the concert and will rather get to enjoy the concert, for free of course! And I worked it out so that Jenny gets to go with me, for free of course! We will be leaving her apartment in 30 minutes to head up to the concert since I have to work there. The greatest thing is that I’m getting paid to drive up here, work the concert, and drive back to Columbia.

I drove into STL last night once I got off work and met Jenny at the movie theater to see Hancock. The theater was extremely nice and large, except that when Ali sat down in the seat, her ass was immediately wet. We’re going with the idea that it was soda spilled on the seat, nothing other than that. The movie was pretty good, not great, but good. It was a lot of fun with the group, minus the high school girl that was behind us, obviously high. She was laughing at everything on the screen, inclusing the word “Presentation.” Jenny took care of her with a snap of her fingers! After that, I noticed the girl has fallen asleep. It was great.

Tonight will be the concert, and then game night! I’m super excited about that because all of Jenny’s friends are a blast. They are from North Dakota so they have a fun accent. Tomorrow is the 4th of July, so there will of course be idiots all over this damned state. We will be sure to not be one of those idiots. I will of course update with whatever happens tonight and tomorrow. Until then, have a safe and happy 4th!!!
