Raviv and I are going to go camping and it's perfect because Dyl convinced the dad and the stepmom to let him go to Savannah with Miley. And camping, camping is nothing. Been camping all my life.

Everything just seems really good right now.

I don't even care, now, if people know. Why shouldn't people know that I'm happy?

Maybe. Maybe. Maybe I'll say something. But only if it's brought up. Maybe.

I really am considering going back and getting that Transformers sleeping bag. I won't even fit in it but just knowing that I'd own it would mean enough.

I love that summer's here because that means it's camping season, or as it's commonly known around here, the best season ever. When it was just me and dad and Dyl we'd go camping and spend the whole weekend just out in the woods and it's just so unlike the city. There aren't as many worries. I like when things slow down, calm down. I like being able to shut off my phone and not care for awhile.

Actually, I really like fishing because then I get to cook whatever I catch myself. Things always taste so much more rewarding when you cook them on an open campfire flame.

In other news which is important to me but probably it's not to anyone else, Martha Stewart released her cupcake book. Finally. Martha's recipes are so interesting and thoughtful, like she has always had so much time to prepare them. Her recipes, even though she gives them away, no one ever really tries to duplicate it like she does. This whole book thing is a great way for her to make money and still look good in the public eye.

I bought it, of course. I've already tried a few recipes and now Dylan swears he's gained five pounds from having to be the taste-tester.

Martha, though, she always kind of makes me feel weird. She's been in trouble with the law but she's so universally loved. She has a Twitter and was in jail for something that seems so foreign to me. Insider trading? Doesn't that happen all the time? You can't fault her for wanting to advance her career and her business. You can't hate her for that.

But at the same time.. I don't know. Martha makes me feel so many opposites at the same time, every time. I Tivo her show and then I roll my eyes when she's mentioned in public. I use her recipes but I really don't like the way she's portraying herself.

She's strong and she's weak and she's still got it and she's already faded away and I love her and I hate her and I want her to live forever and I want her to die tomorrow.
