Long Weekend

So we have had Thursday-Sunday off, Thanksgiving kind of stunk not only because I was away but we were surrounded by a bunch of people we didn't know and they didn't try to interact with us, so I was sad I wasn't back home with people I love and want to hang out with and want to talk to me, but we got through it!  That night we went downtown Little Rock and found a pizza place to hang out in, some people played pool, I had an appetizer and just people watched.  Yesterday (Friday) some of us went shopping, but didn't really hit much of the black friday crowd, we went to Best Buy and WalMart, my team leader Kiera and I went into the Christmas section and got some stuff to decorate our 3 ft. christmas tree, I'll be sure to take a picture of it soon to post, I decorated it myself!! I'm so excited that it is officially Christmastime!! We've found the christmas music radio station!!!!  After shopping we went to another UALR Basketball game.  Today some people went to tailgate for the Arkansas vs. LSU game, but I figure that's really not my scene and I wasn't in the mood for it.  So after we planned on going ice skating at the "Skatorium" I think it's called downtown, it's outside, but it was too long of a wait so we're going to try to go back tomorrow.  And after dinner tonight we went back downtown.  Downtown Little Rock isn't all that big, I'd say it's like Portland but with taller buildings.  But, that's been my weekend so far, it's been nice not to have to go to the hospital or think about hospital things.  20 days till I come home!! We really only have 2 more full work weeks until we head back to Denver!!! So I'm really bummed.  All these cool things are happening in the places I go, but not at the right time....Guster was in Portland like what 2 weeks after I left, the day we came to Little Rock was the last day Wicked was playing, and now Guster is coming to Denver one week after we leave for our next project!!! I don't get it!!! But I'm just figuring it's happening for a reason...like I need to save my money for other things....o well...now that I'm rambling on and on I'm going to stop.  Miss and love all!
