Illinois, St. Louis, and Washington D.C. (coolio)

*sigh* ...Where to start? I guess at the beginning...problem is, I don't remember a lot of the beginning. ...So many exciting things have happenized since then! Let's see if I can remember though...since all you faithful readers have been checking your computer every single minute for an update (...right...?).

Four score and ...wait a sec...

Two days ago I was in the car. I was heading to St. Louis and then to Washington DC. I was really tired and I slept most of the way. (Well...I only kind of fell asleep. I mostly just closed my eyes and rested. (I heard my dad mumbling a lot on the way there...so I knew something was wrong.)) And there was; We had almost no time to get to the airport (stupid traffic. -.-). Well...we missed the plane and had to walk. (APRIL FOOLS!! ...I sooo got you. =D) We actually just barely got on the plane. We had to run though...and I crashed right into an elderly lady, earning a beating from her cane. (HA! APRIL FOOLS AGAIN!!! I bet I got you that time, too! xD) So anyway...I bet you're getting tired of that already, so I shall continue. We got on the plane, and I had a fun time. ...Though it probably was rather boring for my dad, who has flown a billion or so times already. =p I got some pretty sweet pictures, but you can't get the juicey stuff unless you have a film camera (You have to turn the digitals off unil the ten-thousand feet mark. -.-). But on the bright (or sunny...or shiny side...or however you would like to call it...) I discovered that peanuts and chocolate covered coffee beans make an excellent combination (You can tell I had to look in an online dictionary for that sentence right? WELL I DIDN'T! XD (I am getting smarter by the day! ;) )) After we landed (we did actually land, for my worst enemies that I don't know about that are just hoping to hear about a crash, and are too much of a dunce to figure out that I am, in fact, writing this entry.) we went to this cold tunnel thingy to wait for an enterprise bus to pick us up. It took forever...but it finally came (By the way...it didn't take forever...that's just a saying for a long time. (wow...I should write a book called life...for dummies!)) After the bus took us where we needed to go, (which was a car rental place (DUH)) you will never guess in a million years what we did.....we rented ..........A CAR. 0_0 Yeah...I was actually a little surprised, too... ...I mean, who rents a car at a car rental place?! INSANE right? So yeah. After we insanely rented a car at the car rental place, we drove the rental car out of the rental car place (If you don't like reading unusual things...then you may want to stop here. I mean, this is getting uncomforably unusual, wouldn't you say?). Let's see who has left and who is insane enough to read on...*looks through the computer screen* (Yes...I can do that. Some say I'm crazy, some say I'm a wizard. And some just have horrible imaginations. ). WOW...everyone is here except Bob! ...Amazing... After we got out of the car pit, we went to our hotel, Crown Plaza. It's a very cool hotel...but the locations for everything was kind of odd; The pool was right next to the eating place and just sitting there, out in the open, and uhm...well that's about it. =p After we checked in to the hotel, we went to another Crown Plaza (Ahg....I keep spelling it Crown Plazy. I hate all my typos. -.-) and we got picked up by my dad's collage roommate to go to this extremely coolio awesomenesh infinity Ittalion resturant. I got Spaghetti and meatballs. It was really awesome, but I couldn't eat more than five or so bites because I stupidly filled up on orderves like a pig before the actual meal came (Although...those were some really good orderves...=D). Once we were all done eating and my dad and the other person finally stoped talking, the dude took us back to the hotel and we drove back in my dad's car from there (to the hotel that we were staying at.). A little while after, it was time for my dad to go to a long, boring meeting (The whole reason for going on the trip to St. Louis.). It was in a church not far from a Starbucks, so I walked over there and got a frap and read a few chapters of The Silmarilion (My fav. book yet.). While walking back, it was easier as the rain had gone elsewhere (You did know it was raining when I came there right? >.< Erg. I can be so forgetfull sometimes. ...Well it was, and I got soakified.). One sec...omg...my sister just came and asked for my gameboy...and it was then, (Thirty or so seconds ago) that I noticed I forgot my gameboy. It's still at the hotel. -.- See what I mean?! ERG. NOOOOOO!!!!!!!! I can't believe I forgot my gameboy...my awesome, awesome gameboy!!!!! ...Well, I never liked it anyways, so I will continue without mourning. =p When I did get back, the meeting was still going on, so I read some more and listened to my ipod (xD). After a while, the meeting was still going on and we ate lunch at the church. 'Twas a good lunch...but I hated the salad (HORRIBLE.). We got back to the hotel at about seven thirty...six thirty on my body clock, (we had passed the magic time thingy during the flight) but still late for dinner. My dad said that he had been to a wonderfull Mexican place and that he'd like to eat there for dinner. It took forever to find it, but we finally did and had a supurb meal there and then went to the hotel to crash (I especially liked the corn there... It doesn't matter if you aren't too fond of corn like me. EVERYONE that tastes that corn loves it. EVERYONE. (Well...at least I did. =p)).

When we got to the hotel it was nine fourty five or so...and we had finished eating right at closing time (But we didn't have to rush.). and I was really tired. The next day I would sleep in so I could be nice and energetic for the next day: ......TOURISM.......
