Watched the Battlestar Gallactica miniseries this weekend (again). The new one. It makes me miss
zeplum on so many levels (but mainly because Katee Sackhoff is so scarily like
zeplum, in mannerisms and appearance, even down to minor facial expressions).

Did the whole beach thing. Managed to miss Biker Week, Black Biker Week and Senior Week. Which means for once, Myrtle Beach was decent.

Saturday was spent lazing in the morning. I put on a bikini and headed to the beach. I was the only person in my family who actually sat out on the beach at any point. There was walking on the beach, yes. But spending quality time out there? Just me.
Let it be noted that I like the mountains. The beach isn't my thing. They all love the beach. *raises eyebrow*
The next family trip has already been proposed by my sister. I proposed the location: West Virginia for white water rafting.

( NASCAR fans and go karts collide )

Saturday evening involved the Derby (I cried over Afleet Alex's story), dinner at a too expensive seafood restaurant (but I was different and tried something new), and then coming back to crash and watch the NASCAR race (Mikey throwing a temper tantrum is funny - Kurt throwing one is grounds for an ass kicking).

Sunday had an old man flirt with me on the beach. Only slightly less traumatizing than the 80 year old in an old man speedo. *shudders*
There was also shopping at some point. My mother got a "Dixie Divas" shirt that is quite cute. I got bracelets. Also managed to find a NASCAR store to hunt for McMurray stickers. At least at this one they told me he sold out fast, due to his cuteness. Take that NC stores! The beach folk recognize the hotness of my boyfriend!
