Note: Hey all you people! Sorry for taking so long to update. The week of 4th of July I was camping 80 of the time and babysitting and planning parties and…just utter crap. Summer is flying by fast, non? Anyways, this is quick, because I'm babysitting and I have 91 battery on my laptop. I've been to Columbus, a long time ago, although I only live 2 hours into the country away from it, but, whatever. Enjoy.

June 10th

Dear Joe,

Callie is going to kill you, Chet is going to kill me, and then we can take over heaven and/ or hell.

Sound good?

Anyways, were still in the hotel in Columbus. It's pretty nice, with this funny shaped soaps.

Yes, in Columbus the things I notice is the soap. Ironic.

Anyways, we arrived in Columbus yesterday, it's about nine o clock, and I'm waiting for my mom to finish showering before we head out.

I love our room.

Well, our room alone is pretty boring, but were on like the top floor of our hotel, and, when you look outside, you can see all these building's and people and…life. It's like everything is moving forward, going, running. At home time doesn't seem to move sometimes, you know? You look out the window, and you see an empty street and a corn field. Crime, except the crime you find, is nonexistent. But, here…life is going forward, people are living their lives to the fullest…

We have to live in New York someday. In an apartment. An old apartment, with character, on the top floor. Where we can look out the window and see life moving forward, in motion.

Ok, so, yesterday we got here about noon. So we picked up some lunch and we headed to the Columbus museum of art.

It was so fun.

Remember our DC trip in 8tht grade, where we ran around the national gallery of art, imitated the 'thinker' (I still have that picture!)'Interpreted' the art, ate lunch, made art out of our forks, playing on the benches, and simply took in seeing something that we didn't understand or really got to the point where it hit us deep?

It was like that.

We ran around the sculptures, looked upside down at the abstract paintings, we played on benches, we sang…

And I got you a free sticker. It has their logo name thing on it. Isn't it awesome?
Oh, I also loved my lovely phone call from Chet.

"OMIGOD IOLA NATALIE MORTON YOU'RE DATING MY BEST FRIEND!?WAIT, I GOT TO KILL JOE! AH!"

Yeah, not fun. I had to hold the phone a foot away from my ear so my eardrums didn't burst.

Ah, my mom's done in the shower. I've go the radio in our room playing. It's LFO, That's the way it is.

"I've been hurt, I've been robbed, but I'm ok."

"I'm a slob with no job, but I'm alright."

"Yeah that's the way it is."
I love that song. It's so true. We've been hurt, we've been pushed down, our lives suck, but here we stand with smiles on our faces, because we know life is life and shit happens and some things you can't change.

Anyways, my mom's yelling at me to come to the car, so I've got to go.

Maybe I'll get control of the radio. Were going to COSI today, Mom says we need to get in touch with our inner children. After that she says she has a surprise for me.

I hope it's that actor from Supernatural covered in honey…

Your one true love apparently who is cultured,

Iola
