Go Sox!?!?!?

Today I went to the Bluejays/Sox game. Sox won 7-6. I had really good seats. It was freakin' hot out there. The dome was open and the sun was shining! It was fun but I had a hard time deciding who to root for...Chicago, my hometown or the ones who in a way pay my bills? It's a toss up. Jordan even got to come down and sit with me for a bit too which was cool. I think I got a little sunburn :( not cool. No funny tan lines for Sarah's wedding, which is coming up quickly here, June 24th. I fly in to O'hare on thursday night the 22nd. I leave @6:20 and get there @6:50 quick flight isn't it? We went out for our 1 year anniversary last night. We didn't get to go out until 10 pm, but at least we got to go out. We went to a tapas restaurant which was really yummy! Well, that's all for now...if Jordan gets home early enough we are going to go to church at 7pm. We'll see. Catch ya later!

End of an era....

It was a sad day in the Sutton and Bastian households yesterday. My dad was trying to sell Jordan's Cavalier and ended up selling my Buick instead! This is incredibly stupid and I can't believe I am admiting this to anyone but immediate family, but I am sad! I have had the car since 2000 -- almost as long has I have had Jordan. My Grandpa Hershel gave the car to me in August of my senior year and thus started the feud between Kyle and I. He said he was supposed to get the car, not me. I'm waiting for him ask for his cut.



I have a lot of funny memories of that car. I used to be "extra" cool and had KDAWG10 liscence plates on it. I would wash it every week in the summer like it was a Corvette or something. Before I was done my pops would wander down the street and take a look at it and say, "It never looked this clean even when it was new! Maybe I should take it back!" I took it to college loaded down with my gear in it. I took my new roommates to Wal-mart in it and was embarasssed when it started to shake uncontrollably ( it needed a new tranny, 1st car owner repair). It was there for me every winter...it always started. Adventures in hubcaps! It smelled like my Grandpa's pipe which is an oddly comforting smell. It didn't look so great at the end, but it was a great car underneath. I'm going to miss my first car. Sniff, sniff! Here's one last look for everyone.
