Back to Big Stone

Check out all the pic­tures on my spe­cial Big Stone photo set.

Well, I was kinda expect­ing this to be long, but I feel absolutely awful today, so I’ll keep it short. Basi­cally, Holli got to live with my fam­ily for a week­end. All that was miss­ing was Bryce, and hope­fully we’ll make that up this week­end. David accom­pa­nied us back (and forth), which was nice. I think sit­ting in the back made it hard for him to be in the con­ver­sa­tion, so he played Dia­blo II the whole way. He’s done sav­ing the world, and now he’s sav­ing Hell.

Not much excit­ing hap­pened, but it was a nice week­end. What made it extra nice was that Tony made the jour­ney back to hang with us. That was cool. We watched Chicago, the movie, which my mom owned. It’s a bit racier than I had antic­i­pated, which caused some mad-crazy sex­ual ten­sion between me and Tony. Holli pre­tended not to notice.

Tony taught Holli crib­bage, and then he beat us both hand­ily (what hap­pened to my skillz??). David came over with Tyler and two chicks, and we watched ghost spe­cials on TV. We also had Sun­day morn­ing mass, where I played gui­tar with Mom. I got my laun­dry done in the new, space-age washer and dryer set. Every­time I come back they have some­thing new…

Note: if you see Hogan, his new nick­name is Doo­fus, and he totally lived up to it. Holli decided that Patches was her favorite of the dogs (go Patch!) but, also, he’s prob­a­bly dying. At least, that’s how it looks to me. I had a really good time this week­end. Holli seemed to fit in really well with my fam­ily and Tony. She said that every­one made it really easy for her to “just be Holli”. So, I appre­ci­ate that, fam­ily and Tony and David and Tyler and chicks.

Other things: the blogs are back up and run­ning. You’re going to see a lot of changes to MilesRausch.com in the com­ing weeks as I hack and slash this theme into what I want from it. Who knows what crazi­ness I’ll add!

lol greet­ing cards are going well. We’ve sold at least 10 so far, and we’ve even had orders from as far away as Omaha. I think it’ll be a big hit.

I took some pic­tures the other day when I really had noth­ing else to do. Toodles.

  1. I miss Patches falling asleep on my legs and cut­ting off cir­cu­la­tion. I think I gave him the wrong impres­sion on Sun­day. I wasn’t in the mood for being walked on, I guess.

  2. As a fel­low Big Stoneian, I hereby dubb thou Holli Gregg as an Hon­orary Big Stoneian with all the rights and priv­i­lages. Con­grats and Represent!

    Don’t for­get mem­ber­ship fees are due on June 29th.

  3. when­ever i see your guys’s new wash­ing mahcine and dryer I just want to jump in it and go back in time! How awsome is that!?

  4. Hey, if the new washer really goes back-in-time maybe I could meet Holli, play crib­bage, and watch movies too. But David, how do you fit in the washer?
