I'm going home!!! I am not homesick or anything but I just can't wait to go home and i'm leaving tomorrow as soon as Crim Law is over. I have lots of stuff planned for this weekend. First, on Friday I am going to my highschool's homecoming game. It is my 5th year homecoming reunion (although I didn't graduate until the spring of 02 of course, but 5th year since my senior homecoming). So I figured I'd go, see who I see, talk to old teachers and what not. Then Saturday I'm going to the Toroco Racing Fuels NHRA Nationals at the Virginia Motorsports Park. My daddy has been drag racing forever but recently got out of it for a while (he bought a harley instead) but this is the big guys. John Force and the big boys of NHRA are coming back to our track for the first time in a few years and I can't wait!! Then I'm just going to be hanging out with my family for the rest of the weekend. I may have mentioned before that I'm from a really small town. Well it only has about 1800 people in the town itself (the county is bigger of course). We know everyone and everyone knows everyone's business. But thats the life of a small town and I love it. It doesn't help for my family that my dad owns the most popular convenience store in town and since we don't have any fast food stores (I'm serious, not even a McDonalds) and we sell awesome hotdogs, we are VERY busy and everyone definately knows us. I can't wait to get out of law school, find an awesome job someone at some great law firm, practicing some type of law (as you can tell I don't know exactly what I want to do or where I'm going to be) and THEN settle down in my town! I was born and raised there and want to raise my kids there too. We are generally a safe town. Not to mention pretty much my whole family and all my friends are from there. Oh yeah its also Autumn Days weekend this weekend. They block off main street and have all kinds of fun stuff set up for kids to do (big kids too of course). I haven't been in a few years so I might just have to put in an appearance. Although I have tons of work I could and should be getting done this weekend, I think my weekend will most likely be spent relaxing with my family and enjoying small town life!
