Today was a good day.
But I think through Lauren's eyes, it may have been better.
So to do the day justice, I will dictate what Lauren says right now:
"You're not dictating. You should say I will type what Lauren dictates."
Oh.... wait.... got it.
I will write what Lauren dictates.
Now.
"The day started early as usual at the moment. We ate a limp hotel breakfast. Went to Walmart. Ummmm..... then we...... went to..... mumble mumble mumble.... had time for a run and came back to find Santa's sweatshop in our hotel room.
We headed up to see Dolores... popped out quick to the antique shop.... ummm.... found some super cool treasures. Then headed back to the farm to go exploring.
Umm..... we walked around to the back field and froze like ice when we realized there were 2 deer in the field. We backed up slow and stealth into the barn...
um.... so what was the last sentence?......
climbed the ladder up to the ummmm.... would you call it a hunting platform.... found 2 guns and a pair of binoculars.....
We were excited at seeing 2 deer.... little did we know.... in an hours time, with the sun just setting, we would be looking at 60+ deers in a field.
It was like watching the Great Migration on the Discovery Channel.
And to top it off..... I saw a rabbit."
Me - "You saw 60 deer in the wild and A RABBIT is a highlight?!?!"
"Are you making comments on this?! What the fuck are you typing?
I walked back to the house on numb feet but because they were so numb, I may have just been hovering.
Got back to the house and warmed up.
And then Jim and Joey came in. It was so great to finally meet them.
It's also great to finally hear Jim's perspective on the majority of Justin's frequently told stories.
Umm.... ummmm..... we spent a good 4 hours... um.... wait no.... delete that....
ummm..... the Kramer family are great and welcomed me in with might. They are warm, wonderful people.
We put up a real Christmas tree (my first ever I think).
Bout to crash back at the hotel now and umm.... wait.... bout to crash at the hotel room.... and then.... uhhh... ummm..... it was such a worthwhile wait for.... umm.... it was such a worthwhile wait.... ummm.......
I think I'm done.
I love it here."
