Blogging from Buffalo

My grandpa is out of the hospital!!!! Thanks for helping. That's enough of that. Focusing on the joys of being in my hometown:

Buffalo is a highly underrated city. Which explains why the economy isn't exactly thriving. And hasn't been since the dear Erie Canal days.

First fun thing:

Whenever I visit my grandparent's house now, even though my mom and I lived with them for about 15 years and each had our own bedroom, I sleep in a fort. I love forts. They are truly one of the greatest and most fun things in life. Never too old. Never. I even made one with a boy I had a crush on sophomore year in my dorm room. It led to kissing. Forts are great.

The fort is also preferable to sleeping in what my old bedroom has been converted to: my grandpa's pirate room. See photo, because you would not believe it if I only verbally described it. And the photo doesn't even do it justice. Believe it. My grandpa also likes to drink rum and coke in honor of pirates. I love this man.
