well it's back to work I suppose.  The cape and nicole was fantastic fun, but It's good to have ten days to sober up.  I do enjoy my job, it just drags at certain points.  The good news and the bad news is that as of the middle of this run, I'll be half done with work and the summer is already more than half over ( Read more... )

Well lets see.  I am on the Cape.  Nicole has abandoned me to go to work, so I get to entertain myself at her house for a number of hours.  Let me start this update by saying I can see where nicole gets it from.  Nicole is very much her mothers daughter.  I find it amusing when people have similar personalities to their parents, it amuses me.  But ( Read more... )

well...this past week kind of sucked.  By which I mean, think about how fucking hot it was and then imagine hauling a 30 pound pack up a hill in the middle of it.  I was literally soaked like I had just gone swimming but that was only my own sweat.  It was awful and I was certainly ridiculously dehydrated.  Once the hiking was done the bugs were ( Read more... )

so this past 24 hours were fantastic.  First the weather was perfect.  Second, I spent the afternoon at sages ravine chilling with Matt which is always fun.  I decided I would cook dinner there and leave late and hike the final four miles in the evening/dusk/night just to mix things up.  So I finally get going at around seven, when I meet a bunch ( Read more... )

So because I am home and bored I can promise you all a post about existential crisis, the meaning of life, the end of sophmore year, twizzlers and the like.  Oh and my mother totally being on too me in too many ways.  But at this moment all I want to do is whine about my god damn Ipod.  Heres the deal: the summer between highschool and college I ( Read more... )
