Well my weekend was awesome.
Saturday morning the_acrobat and I went canoeing. We paddled upstream and she taught me how to steer. Most of it I already knew, but either wasn't doing right or didn't know I was doing right. And these things should always be reinforced. We went to CowIsland (they ship the cows over to graze there sometimes) and wandered around. We saw a bunch of birds, that were probably swallows, who had made their nests in the bank as well as a red winged blackbird. And of course we talked and talked. We went for popsicles once we got back to shore.
After that Pam picked me up and we went to the beach. We laid in the sand until we got too hot then went and stood in the water until we got too cold. I got a minor sunburn on my stomac. Cameron and a bunch of Pam's other friends showed up a little later and we threw a football around in the water. It was fun. Pam and I are going to try to hang out more this summer.
When I got back from the beach, I called ginger4321 to figure out what the plan for Sunday was. She said she could pick me up in a few hours and I could sleep over. So we had the evening and all of Sunday to catch up and hang out. It was awesome. We went swimming and kyaking. We talked about everything and nothing. Everything from physics on alternate universes to the challenges of wearing a bikini when you have very little boobs to hold the top down with. Gah, I miss her so much! In the evening we played Cranium with her little sister and her former neighbour. We won because we can read each other's minds. it is a unique advantage.
Less than 2 weeks until Physics camp. I find it hard to believe. I'm so afraid that I'm going to show up there and not be able to follow because everyone there is smarter than me. Then I tell myself that I'm just being insecure and I shouldn't worry as I am very intelligent. Then I worry that I just have a really big ego and am not nearly as intelligent as I think I am. Then I tell myself to shut up because talking to one's self is the first sign of insanity.
It's like Lorry (one of my librarians) said the other day: "talking to yourself is the first sign of insanity, but it's when you answer back that you really have to worry".
MiMi and I got a lot of progress done in both our stories while we were discussing them Saturday night (or rather Sunday early morning). I shall have to update the wiki I've created for it. I showed my wiki to MiMi and she loves the idea and is thinking of making one for her story too.
I should be in bed. Buenas noches!
