Photo Link

Kirsten recently taught me how to link you guys to the pictures from my vacation.  Check them out.  Marianne and I had a great time and tomorrow is a special day.  Day one of work, its been awhile and I am ready to go back.  We'll see how it goes.

Promised Post

I am going to post all about my vacation, however I am still like a little internet dumb so I am trying to figure out 1. How to insert a link to my flickr photos and 2. How to do a hyperlink to the places that I went.  If you can help me with either of those things these posts will be forthcoming.  Thanks.

Vacationland

Tomorrow starts my official vacation, however for the last couple of days I was sunning myself in sunny Cape May, NJ.  The town is adorable.  The beach days were mostly good.  Chels, Sara G, and I were there for Sunday, it was really windy it rained, but we still found a little bit of time to hit the beach in the afternoon (it was so windy the sand was blowing that's my least favorite thing) I did swim for a hot minute but the surf was pummeling me so I got out pretty quick.  That night we had dinner with Patty and started a 1,000 piece Troll Mania puzzle.  Sara thought it was too ambitious, but Chels and I had faith that we could finish it.  The next day we took Sara to the bus in Atlantic City, and then spent the rest of the afternoon at the beach.  Maloy even got to join us for the evening.  We rode bikes worked on Troll Mania.  We even hit Carney's a jersey shore bar.  You can just imagine, but the drinks were cheap the DJ was playing really bad music and there was really bad dancing.  What else do you need?  Finished off the night by watching Liar, Liar until we all fell asleep.  Day 3 hit the beach again.  This was the most gorgeous day we had.  I finished my book The Last Summer (of You and Me) by Ann Brashares, her first adult novel.  It was a good beach read.  Then we went home and finished TROLL MANIA.  All 1000 pieces.  It was very satisfying.  Right now I am putting off packing and getting everything together that I need for VT and ME.  Oh and big news.  Maloy's sister is having her baby today.  A few weeks early but her water broke this AM and her new niece is on the way.  So today is going to be a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS. I will post pictures of Troll Mania once I get them downloaded.  It's a walk down memory lane.  It's like the Wackness-Trolls from 1994

26 and loving it?

I've been 26 for one day.  In that day I have read Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2.  I've gone bowling with Emma, Bean, and Lucien.  I won bowling twice.  I attempted to see Sisterhood 2, but every 12 year old had the same idea.  Not that I'm 12.  I'm 26.  Weird.  Bea got her collar off today.  We will see if it lasts.  Yesterday I altered a shirt for chels, and used the sleeves to make dog toys for Bea and Roscoe.  I ate the most delicious dinner, and went to bed early.  Is that what you are supposed to do on your birthday?  My life has become boring, but in one week I go on vacation.  A real vacation, with hotel rooms and an itinerary.  I've never done that before.  I've never tried to be an adult.  I'll let you know how it works out.  I'm probably too young to be a REAL adult.  I'll let you know.

Its been a while...

Ok.  I apologize to all my faithful blog readers that I have not updated in a while.  I wanted to, but I have been busy.  Vacations and school take up a lot of my time. 

A rundown of my vacations:

Camp Tockwogh- not really a vacation, but a volunteer weekend.  It was nice to see my campers now counselors.  I felt about 1000 years old, but it was a great time.  I got to swim, hang out with some chillins and lay on the dock reading my book! Awesome

NYC- Me, K, Chris, Bean, M-Healy nuf said.  PS Kirsten's new girlfriend in NYC gave me Rabies.

Poconos- Swam in the lake, swam in a river, hiked a waterfall, hilarity (Greg McKenna was there), played nerdy board games, ate too much food, drank too much beer.

-Mia Michaels...Thank you.

Wish you were a lesbian? I'll change that...

What happened in 2004?  I want you to give me a detailed description of everything you did in 2004, I want you to relive every decision you made and give me a good reason why.  I was asked to do this.  This is what happens when you are a lesbian.  

I made a pact with Maloy to never go to Sisters again.  I should have stood by that,  but silly me... Maloy was in St. Louis, I was at Woody's an old "friend" was at Sisters.  I'll meet up for a beer I thought.  WRONG!!! Sobfest '08.  Not me, my "friend" who shall remain nameless.  I was blamed for every thing that has gone wrong for this girl for the last 4 years, most of which we were not speaking, hanging out, chatting, seeing each other. PLEASE.  Needless to say, I'm back to the pact.  NO Sisters, don't even ask.

Awkward BBQ's? Of course, what would 4th of July be without one.  6 people, 4 dogs, burgers grilled for 1 hour (not exaggerated), PBR in the bathtub (not exaggerated luckily still in the can), Fireworks, discussion of Pearl Necklaces (yes...that kind), dog bites.  Awful things happen when you are a lesbian.

Bright side? Fun at Ice Cream Festival.  Andrea, Jonah, Bean, Lucien, Chels (not a lesbian), and me $5 all the ice cream we could eat.  Kind of gross because it was 90 degrees, but also sort of delicious.  We helped lick leukemia.  So sometimes it is nice to be a lesbian, but sometimes it is gross.
