So the St. Louis trip was a good one. Most unfortunately, I was not able to get any pictures because I’m an idiot and forgot my memory card back here at home. I may swipe a couple from Natasha’s MySpace, though she got about as many as I would have gotten. Unless you’re just the designated photographer out at those parks, a camera is just a hassle. I wish I would have known that going out there, because I swear we paid almost $10 in locker rentals that day. Six Flags changed a lot since the last time I was out there. I mean in some bad ways too. The good was that there were several new rides and all that, but I ended up paying an extra $82 for the “FlashPass” so we wouldn’t have to stand in line for 3 hours per ride. On one hand, yes it’s worth it if you’re not up there often and don’t want to spend all of your time standing in line, but my god. That was nearly $100 more than I cared to spend… on top of the hotel room, the regular admission, food, gas, etc. Can you believe that 4 bottles of water ran $14.00? Yes, we had fun, but damn it came at a price.

With all of this travel, I’ve been itching to get out of Memphis more often. It’s not until I leave and really get away for a bit that I come back only to realize that Memphis is crap compared to pretty much everywhere. It’s seriously such a broken city, and it’s a shame because it was a really nice place to live once upon a time. Josh and I were on the phone last night already trying to plan our next getaway. We’re thinking something along the lines of renting a cabin somewhere and doing the outdoors kinda thing. Something that won’t cost us $500 for just a weekend. Ugh.

Gotta get through today and tomorrow and I’ll have four days away from work again. Haha, I love it~! That said, I need to go eat something and start getting ready. I hate the closing shift.
