a stone slab in bakersfield.

ah, i am driving to bakersfield tonight to visit my awesome family. i get to see my mom's new granite countertops. is it totally lame i am super excited about that? can't a girl love granite? i usually stay with my brother and sis in law, who are both so legit words can not explain what a great time i have. and my nieces give me a run for my money in the energy department. every time. so, i'm super stoked. i am, however, sad that matty will not be coming with us. i know it won't be the same without him. i hate the drive, and i usually make him do it and complain about how slow he is going the whole way. but that is our thing. it's just how it is supposed to be done. plain and simple. i think i am going to force the clan of nieces into drawing him pictures so i can send them his way. last time i forced one of them to draw for me, she drew a kangaroo with a purple bow that just took a huge dump. it was beautiful.
