two weeks of activities

I really do need to stop taking such long leaves of absences....*sigh*Anyway, two weeks ago was my spring break. It was great getting to go home and visit with my parents and all of my friends. I brought Jerrod home with me as well. I was so happy he got to come along. It was great just being with him every night. Holding him and such. The first day back, we hung out with Swartz. (I'm at Jerrod's and therefore do not have my colors.) The three of us went to S-n-S and played some games before heading over to the Piqua mall. We didn't really do a whole lot while we were there, but it was still fun hanging out with both Swartz and Jerrod.
After the mall, the three of us ended up going to Rock-n-Bowl. The three of us ended up getting a total of six games in. Which both amazed and tired me. I'm still thrilled that we were able to go though.
Throughout the week, I did a few other things mainly with my mom. A doctor's appointment. Some shopping. And then Jerrod and I went bowling again on the last Saturday. Only this time, there nine of us. Thankfully, we had two lanes. But I sucked royally. It didn't really matter though. I got to see a number of my friends that I hadn't seen in a very long while. Jamey, Bunny, Raye, P-Chan, JD, Joey. It was awesome. I would have loved to have been able to update over break and write all about what I did, but the day after we got home, dad's computer basically pooped out on us. So we had little internet connection action going on. Ah well.
So anyway, shortly after spring break was over my dad ended up in the hospital. One of his testicles had become infected. At first, he was sent to a specialist that inserted a drain right next to it in the hopes that it would lessen the infection. However, he ended up being sent to a large hospital to have an "exploratory surgery." Which basically means that they made an incesion and then flushed out as much of the poisons as they could. The thing is that they aren't able to suture such places. So he's been laying in the hospital with a large whole on his scrotam. Obviously, he's been in a lot of pain. He's still there right now. He's gone through a total of three of the procedures I've mentioned.
On top of all of that, Jerrod ended up being really sick all week last week. So most of my free time went to taking care of him. Quite often I spent at least six hours sitting on the bean bag chair next to him helping it out however I could. I just wanted to help him get better as much as I could. On Thursday, he ended up having to go the ER though. Which was just lovely. Crystal took him and I went with him. Unfortunately, I had to head back to Transy around 1 for my class. In which I had to give a presentation that I prepared only that morning right before we took Jerrod to the hospital. He's much better now though. I'm not freaking out nearly as much as I was last week, although a great deal of my attention that is devoted to worry is going to Crystal because of her dumbass boyfriend. But I won't go into that right now.
Well, I'm sleepy so I think I'll run along for now.
peace
