what about the sexy clothes?
well life is fine with me these days.
I got called for jury duty last thursday and was picked for a top secret really important trial that I can't talk about. well actually it's waaaay boring but I still can't talk about it. so that's pretty boring, but at least I got picked. and our jury group is full of funny people who are sort of weird but really nice and friendly even though I got there a few minutes late this morning.
and at lunch I go shopping!!! I told sid that I've been buying new clothing but he was dissapointed to hear that instead of "sexy" clothing they are all "work" clothing. but I'm having fun pretending that i'm either really cute or really old (I haven't decided yet).
I've been spending lots of time with Laura. movies and walks in the park and a few adventures downtown. it's great to still have the closeness and just calmness together after all this time.
and yesterday I went to Seattle with my grandparents and aunt elana for this dinner to honor them for the camp they founded which was pretty great but the whole time I was just thinking about my glorious camp memories. having my eyelashes picked out. being peer presured out of the prude shell i felt comfortable in. feeling constantly not cool enough or not dressed well enough. where judaism and joy are one? yeah right. all I learned was how to run my fingers through my hair so that both I and my hair looked better in the process. but I suppose my grandparents couldn't have guessed that that is what would happen when they founded a summer camp. [sorry mike, i know shechter is more than that but at the moment I'm having a bitter spree]
I guess also the dinner made me think about Ethan a lot. wondering if I'll get to see him again. thinking about how if anyone ever asks me what was "so amazing" about camp I would mention him in a second. how that was the best part, evening out all the eyebrow tweezers.
Seattle was wonderful. I met up with my cousin Todd, walked around pike st. market with him and his girlfriend. Todd is as always wonderful and Emily (his current love) is super cute and funny and they look really happy together. my current love is supposedly near the Herst castle tonight which makes me really jealous. mostly jealous that sid is spending his free weeks biking down the California coast and I am sitting in a court room, but also I've always really wanted to see all the herst castles.
so i suppose that is it. I'm anxious to start my new job this thursday, anxious to see Justin and Hannah and more of Meara who all come home this weekend. horrah! one month down! I can't believe how fast this summer is going already.
okay much love, Rachel
