I am a Thunderhead

This past weekend was so-so; there's no other way to put it. It wasn't the things I had to do this past weekend. It was more along the lines of having so much going through my mind and so many things happening around me. That, plus we had to "spring forward" by setting our clocks ahead an hour so getting an adequate amount of sleep was difficult enough with church early on Sunday mornings...

Saturday, I wasn't on planning on anything other than homework and watching full episodes of Dogfights (History Channel) on YouTube. I ended up going to Idaho Falls to visit my uncle Paul who was in the hospital; apparently, he suffered a stroke. After that, a visit (and dinner) with my grandparents. We went to a place called New Hong Kongs and I had some General Tso's chicken:

Yeah, I know; Americanized Chinese food doesn't compare to.... Never mind.

I expected it to be somewhat spicy but it wasn't. I texted my dad and even sent the above picture to him expressing my disappointment of the lack of spicy. I kid you not this was his response:

"Spicy probably means something different there... Idaho is a long way from Hong Kong."

I bursted into laughter! I responed by telling my dad that he should be a comedian.

After dropping my grandparents off, my aunt and I ran a few errands. And I FINALLY got my hands on my new Celtic Thunder album:

Yes, I am a Thunderhead.

Let me just say the music is sweet! Sure some of them are covers of arrangements already done in the past but I think Celtic Thunder do a good job covering popular songs and other arrangements. Out of 15 tracks, here my personal favorites from this album:

#1 Voices
#3 Now We Are Free
#6 Carrickfergus
#11 Carolina Rua
#12 Katie
#13 Turning Away
#14 Tears of Hercules
#15 My Land

Sunday, church was routine. Nothing special other than staying up to date with my assignments for class. Just a lot happening around me and a lot going through my mind... Then again, when am I suppose to not think at all???
