Tom and I went camping at Ricketts Glen. It was real nice. Perfect weather for camping and I guess I'm okay that it may possibly be the only camping I'll be doing this summer. We had a good time hiking around, even if Ricketts Glen was a little too family friendly.
I've been going a little crazy this summer concerning drugs. Well, crazier than I have been my entire college career. I got some opiate off the internet called Kratom, which I may do a little bit more of before the summer is up if I find a good time to do it. It has a weird effect on dreams, which is why I initially wanted to try it. The first time by myself just made me paint and then fall asleep and be talkative with Monty and Rena. The second time I literally rolled around on the floor for 5 hours and then fell sort of asleep. I was having a weird relationship with my body and my dreams. They were more like half dreams. And I felt sleep and dreams were this physical object I could eventually reach and I would dream that I was at the foot of my bed wanting to leave but not being able to because my body was glued to the mattress. I got a really bad hangover the second time. :(
I also dropped last week, which I said I wouldn't do last time I dropped. But I don't regret it at all like I usually do. It was probably one of the better trips I've ever had. Tom and I walked around the Art Museum and went to the Rodin museum. We also went swimming in the fountain at Eakins Oval. There were absolutely no bad feelings the entire time, which is also unusual for me. It helped a lot that Tom is such a calm person. It's also nice in general, you know, when we're not high.
I'm very much content and happy with life. Work is good, I'm getting into the groove of everything natural there. Working there has also made me decided to only only organic happy meat. All the meat at Whole Foods are animals that don't have added hormones, aren't ever given antibiotics, are grass and vegetarian fed and are cage and crowded free. Maybe that will make me a vegetarian eventually, since not too many places sell meat like this. Working at Whole Foods also means yummy healthy food for a normal price.
Today I got a customer compliment! The front end paged the bakery, asked for me and told me I might get a cool bean. Which are just stupid little customer service points. The more you get, the more prizes you get. If you get a lot, you get gift cards or one food item for a year free or a supermarket sweep or something silly like that. Whole Foods has some nice perks.
I also signed up for another Improv Movement class at Temple again. Super excited.
I think I'm okay with the way summer is going before school. Just chilling and hanging out with friends. No big art projects until school starts. I just want to do some recording with Eric and John said something about it too. But. Okay. Here's a visual of August so far.
