This weekend I went on a road trip. My boyfriend’s brother raced at two different tracks this weekend because he was racing with a series. Friday, we went to Hattiesburg, MS. The drive wasn’t fun because we had to go through Hattiesburg on our way to the beach, and going through there again made me want to go back to the beach. But anyway, once we got to the track, we immediately wanted to leave. It was awful. The people were rude. This was our first time ever going to this particular track, and everyone gave us dirty looks. No one was willing to help us either. The track itself was rough and not very well managed. Logan’s brother didn’t race well at all. The only fun part about Hattiesburg was being able to play with Logan’s niece. She’s three, so she’s super hyper and silly all the time. We stayed in a hotel Friday night, and Saturday morning we left and went to Jackson. We spent the whole day shopping. First, we went to Hobby Town because the boys wanted to get more stuff for their RC cars. Then we went to the mall. Every store was having back to school sales, so your girl racked up on some stuff. At about three, we went to the race track in Jackson. The track was a lot better than Hattiesburg. The only downside is we had to sit around for like five hours waiting on the rain to pass. So for the rest of the night it was muggy and humid. The mosquitoes were AWFUL. It would’ve been worth it had Logan’s brother won, but his car was messed up. So he didn’t do well at all. We were there until like three o’clock in the morning, and we drove back to Indianola that night. We didn’t get home until five o’clock. Needless to say, I slept all day Sunday. I didn’t even eat until supper time Sunday. So that was my weekend, and now this week I’ve done nothing. Oh, I did quit my job, which kind of stinks. It needed to happen though. I only got to work like once a week, and then my manager posted on Facebook looking for a new employee when she has me. So my mom and I decided that it was best if I just quit.
