Just got back from Maine. Other than the long drive it was a very nice trip. It's not the driving I mind so much, but the fact that I have a problem staying awake when I'm driving by myself. Seriously. It's kind of a problem. Everyone always makes fun of me because the minute I get in a moving car I fall asleep.
So Maine was good. We ate really good Mexican food and got chai at my favorite coffee place in Portsmouth. We put our feet in the ocean which was freezing. I can't believe Jo went swimming in December. I'm such a pussy about things like that though. I really hate being cold. It was 84 degrees today and after my nice hot shower I put on sweat pants, a big hooded sweatshirt, socks and a sweatshirt. And my dad asked if I was sick. Jo's mouse Gus ran away. I suggested to Jo that Gus just needed a vacation and will return soon.
I'm feeling very anxious about this whole interning thing. Seeing Jo was so nice and it upsets me that for the next two years I'd basically be stuck here. I mean I'll travel to Saint A's and visit people occasionally but even if I wanted to I couldn't go move away and live somewhere completely different. But I know that this is what I want. I've wanted to be a teacher for a very long time. It's not a glamorous job though. And I admit, I'd like a little glamour. I want to do something unique and special and dramatic and artistic. I don't really know if there's room for that in teaching. In a public school.
I got to watch Brokeback mountain last night. I thought it was a very good movie. The scenery was just so beautiful and peaceful. It reminded me of Lake George and the cowboys my cousins and I used to tool around with. I had to restrain myself from sharing that, yes, I'd actually been involved in barrel racing once in my life. Well now you know. I was telling Chris today, that if I were to get breast implants I'd want them to look like Anne Hathaway's. She's got nice breasts. For a princess.
