My Grandmother's Birthday,

Today was my grandmother's birthday. My entire extended family (with a few exceptions) lives in White Plains, NY. So my family and I drove there for the party today.

It was fun, but the ride there was boring. So my siblings and I screwed around with my camera:




Trust me, there were plenty more where those came from, but I do not want to overload this post with pics, and I have pictures from the rest of the day to add.

So, anyway, we drove to WP, NY. The party was fun - I love children, so I adore my little second cousins. They were the same ones we went with to Lake Compounce earlier this week.

It was nice to see my family again, especially because this will be the last time for a while, since I will be in Philly for college starting this Tuesday.

So here are some photos from today with my family:




My grandmother, my cousin-in-law Dave, his son Ben, and teddy the shih tzu.


The family.

There are way more than just the ones I posted, but these are enough to get the general atmosphere of the day, I think.

Aren't my cousins adorable?

Anyway, today I was spammed with texts from two people. Nate and Tyler. I think that after we kissed and canoodled (lol I was dying to use that word) last night, Tyler wants me back. It's mildly amusing. I'm not interested. He's not even close to mature enough for me. Plus, it's a "been there, done that" situation. I'm done with him.



As mentioned earlier, Nate also kept texting me today. Here is the story behind Nate:

There is a boy living next door to my grandmother. He is my age, his name is Nathan.
We had sex one time last summer when I was still rebounding after the awful breakup with Tyler. Ever since then, he has been trying to get back with me - he wants me to "hang" with him every time I am in town. I have not had sex with him since that one time, but I don't mind fooling around once in a while.

So he texted me earlier this week asking if he would get to see me before we both go to college. I told him I would be at my grandmother's on Saturday (today), and he said that while I am there, I better come say hi at least. So I went over to say hi, and he tried to get me to spend the day with him. I told him I couldn't, I had to stay at the party for my grandmother. He still pulled me in for a couple kisses, but he let me go after that.



But I did get a picture of him and I for you to see, Internet.

And, just like last night, with Tyler...

All I could think about was Matt. I just want to kiss him, hold him, wake up next to him.


When will this end?!
