Yesterday morning I got up at the ungodly hour of 8 a.m., because my parents and I were off to visit relatives in Orillia.

I wasn't looking forward to the trip, because even though I wanted to see my Aunt, my cousin is a different story.

He's a year older than me, and while we've always gotten along the past few years have changed. Plus now he and his girlfriend are attached at the lip and hip, which is rather annoying. It's hard to talk to someone when they've got a person sitting in their lap and there's groping involved.

But his girlfriend wasn't feeling well, therefore she was not coming to dinner. Huzzah!

But all in all it was a nice trip, and I'm glad I went.
