I got a tattoo today!

I can't take the bandage off until tomorrow. WAA.

This is what I drew:

And this is what I got:

I am undeserving.

Jeez, I sure am a lazy goose.

Or something like that...

Well, last night I had an early birthday celebration. It was really nice. There was tasty food, and friends I've had for a very long time.
Today I'm continuing the long task of packing up everything, and soon Nader is coming over to help me put together an outfit for the Midnight to Dawn bike ride. (Don't worry- I'll get there)
Tonight (or perhaps tomorrow morning) I'm seeing the very last Harry Potter movie ever! I can't wait, but it's going to be the saddest thing ever! I've been reading Harry Potter since I was four and a half. This is going to suck. That's almost fourteen years there that I've been a Harry Potter addict. This really sucks.
On a better note, Friday evening I'm volunteering for Planned Parenthood at the Highland Fest. Then on Saturday: Midnight to Dawn bike ride! It's a fundraiser for something, I don't know, and is literally from midnight to dawn. I'm wearing a tiny terrycloth jumpsuit. Unless, of course, I can talk my mom into wearing some twin jumpsuits that look like they'd rather be someone's great-grandma's davenport.
I'm exhausted, toodles!

BIG DAY TODAY.

You're really just going to have to wait for the pictures though. It was too long and hot today, and I am too tired to describe it all. Just know that it was great. Here's one picture that sort of sums up the end of the day.

Madison!

Well, my family and I made it safely (albeit a bit sick of each other) to Madison a few hours ago. Since then, we have eaten Pizza Pit pizzas, m&m's, and played celebrity Taboo; which we all suck at. Adam, thankfully, went to sleep in not too long of a time. Oh, Betty Ford died too. Not Betty White.
Tomorrow we're headed downtown to see the art fair that has taken the Farmer's Market away from my favorite state capitol. Not sure what else we're doing, but we'd better go to Pasqual's and Michael's. The best food ever! One right after the other, of course.
I'd post some of the pictures from the trip up here, but Oma has the cord in her room and I have the camera in this one. Perhaps tomorrow, if I can figure out how to make this internet go for more than 24 hours. I'm excited to go around the city tomorrow to go play at all my favorite places.
Oh! It's my aunt's birthday today! She's awesome.
Hours in the car. That was my day.

OHMYGOD.

I HAVE APPLIED TO SO MANY PLACES THAT MY OWN NAME LOOKS LIKE IT'S SPELLED WRONG. I HATE LIFE.




I AM JOB.

Bonjour!

I've been gone now for two weeks at my glorious french camp! I love it so much; and really hope that I can work there next year. Basically, we hang out for a week at base camp (learning how to vivre dans le foret) which is pretty much just eh. Then we head to LE PAYS DANS HAUT! Haut haut. That's the part that I live for. A week on le frontier Canadien; canoeing, singing, laughing and best of all, sleeping. This year (my seventh) I was finally in DahVeed's brigade, which was amazing. He tells these amazing stories about his life and the crazy shit that happens to him when he's traveling. I think he needs to write a memoir.
Anyway, I'm home and exhausted. There was a 3rd of July party here last night, and CouchSurfing parties are usually only fun if you're wasted, so I spent much of it in my room.
I hope to have MANY more pictures of camp soon, but for now, there's just this one. It's what happens to your feet when you wear keens for two weeks in the sun.
