getting my LJ on...
...for the first time in seven weeks, says the computer. crazy. well, i got back on saturday from christmount, and i went to camp caroline the week before. caroline was pretty fun, and christmount was AMAZING. the best week ever, i tend to think. i did cry like a baby, especially since stacey, the GGs, brandon, and colin graduated and i realized that, like allie said, that i could live my life with just christmount, and just that community and those people, and never want anything else. man, it's impossible to explain it to people who have never done something like church camp, and especially our camps, but it's the happiest i am all year. you guys at camp see me at my best, whereas i tend to be a bit of a wreck the rest of the year.
the minute i stepped out of the van and saw the cabins and the blacktop and aldridge, i was bubbling over with joy and amazing stuff. and seeing old friends...man, even though for most of them it had only been a weekend since we left each other at camp caroline, it felt like forever. i feel very sad to be home after finding out that i really don't want to live without those people. anyway, the whole week was amazing. the banquet, the talent show, senior worship- how about those grapes, huh? i cried at the campfire when jaime sang "for real" but i do that every time he sings that song, and i was so sad. and saturday morning was so incredibly hard...anyway, i'm feeling camp letdown because it was so beautiful and i felt so close to everything and so grounded and loved...aaaaah now i'm getting sad again.
and kelley? thank you so much for the treats...especially since bob moody, in his infinite greatness, only made jacob sit in the creek and me and david got candy. personally, i think the goodies were sweetened by jacob's experience and humiliation...and the It was at bay this week, which was strange and delightful. call me for the hilarious play by play.
anyway, i have nothing else right now. meh. i love you guys.
