did you know jesus had a half-brother named jake?
So this week has been incredibly awesome, and this is only beginning.
Sunday was the red sox game, they obviously creamed the blue jays, but it was much fun being in fenway with steve and erica (even though I was slightly disappointed that she didn’t scream as much as I expected).
That night was also quite interesting visiting charles at his house. Charles is quite possibly the most cynical person I’ve ever met, and considering I’m a super optimist you’d think that we weren’t compatible…but honestly I find charles’ cynicism quite entertaining and refreshing. We had much fun discussing the lower points of rocky hill as he’s come to hate it. Not that rhs hasn’t been good to me overall (truth be told I am mostly satisfied with it), but I think mostly my good rhs experience is because I knew how to work the system. Anyways…I only wish I had gotten to know him earlier in the year, especially considering my crappy class has apparently treated him particularly horrible. Meh, I got all summer for that.
Eventually he suggested that we leave so we could get work done. Indeed.
Went rock climbing with mike for the first time in nearly six months yesterday…what an exhausting workout, but fun fun! I used to be able to do 5.10’s, and I barely did a 5.8+…but I guess after not climbing for so long that’s not such a big drop. Definitely be going regularly from now on :)
And now tonight…I feel elated after seeing the beach house we’re going to rent in august for a week (maybe two). It’s so incredibly awesome: 3 bedrooms & a futon, a loft with pull down ladder (woulda made a sweet fort ten years ago), mini-bar, big tv and stereo, two full bathrooms, a deck facing marshland, and the front has a sandy beach across the street. There’s only two other houses on the whole street…can anyone say isolated? I’ve begun gently prodding my mom to let me have the house for a full day and night…so far it seems certainly possible. Regardless, I’ll have plenty of extra sleeping space for people to come stay with me.
I turn 18 on thursday :)
Until now I haven't even had the chance to relish the thought of my birthday.
Not looking forward to being old enough to be drafted...but in the unlikely event of it I have a contingincy plan; I'll hit on my commanding office. Yeah that should rock their don't ask, don't tell policy.
At least I'll be old enough to help dethrone bush. I smile at the thought
So many exciting possibilities to come…summer is going to be a blast
ps when some overconfidant person starts ranting about the bible, just throw that little unknown fact out there and watch them stumble in confusion
