I'm back!
List of My Week at the Beach
- We arrived amid torrential rain and wind and were made to leave Wal-Mart (we were trying to grocery shop) because of tornado warnings! So Matt and I got all excited, but then as soon as we got back to our house the warning was CANCELED.
- Day one I forgot everything I ever knew about biology and walked through a pool of stagnant water to get to the beach. I still have mosquito bites like woah, since some made their way into our house and munched on me as I watched the Olympics every night.
- Ian Thorpe is really hot and according to Mo's lj, only 21. Is this true? Can someone confirm that? Wow.
- The front of our house was shaped like the front of a boat, a situation which just begged for someone to stand at the tip of the deck, spread her arms, and shout, "I'm the king of the world!" so why shouldn't I be that person?
- I went ocean kayaking for the first time, which was lovely except for getting out over the breakers and coming back in through them, during which I got flipped over, which was like BAM! sand! confusion! ow! I only wish I had it on video; Katy and Matt tell me it was hilarious to watch.
- I saw pretty wild horses!
- Claude is really funny when he chases the sand crabs.
- I have a very slight tan, and would flash a big smile at anyone who would mention it. Plus, a few new freckles on my nose, for those of you keeping track.
- Cover Girl eyeslicks gel eye color in Aqua Flash is my new best friend. No wait! Alice is my best friend! It's my best cosmetic friend.
- Al and I are going to make a shopping trip this week! I love Alice and I love shopping! I might explode from happiness.
