Today has been a wild and crazy day in the life of Ali.
Firstly, my parents and I decided to go to the beach where my brother has a house on the bay, which is insane b/c all 11 million people who populate San Diego have the same brillant idea. So finding parking was a nightmare. Then when I walked into my brother's house I recognized NO ONE and for a second I thought I was in the wrong house. As it turns out they were all my sister-in-law's family and friends from the OC. So I helped myself to a beer and tried to introduce myself. Now my brother has this joke with me now that whenever he sees me I must have a beer in my hand, which is nothing new to me as some of you may remember. But the best is yet to come, my dad wanted me to meet him at a corner liquor store so I could give him money to buy beer. Well it takes my dad forever to do anything -really- so I decide to have a smoke and right when I walk past the store my dad is walking out. So I throw it to the ground, trying to look all innocent and he says "Ali, why did you throw your smoke on the ground? I am not a f***ing cop."
Children I was shocked.
So I decided to light up another and we walk back to the house together making nice conversation and when we get back my sister-in-law's brother takes out three jello shots and him, my brother and I take them.
I also had wonderful conversations with my sister and my brother - which never happens. And we went on a boat and I saw the sunset, oh and at 9 pm there were 4 firework shows all around the bay and beach. It was really cool!
To say the least I had a wonderfully pleasant day.

I know exactly what you mean with getting used to natural disasters in your area. Like wildfires are no big deal to me at all, there are usually 5 around Helena every summer....but hurricanes or tornadoes! Yikes!
