the crazy

Jesus Christ, mother of god, it's weird how fast your life pace can change, your daily activities, the people you are with. Now I am here, after somehow maintaining sanity through two of the most exhausting days, but still good. Yesterday was my first "work by myself" day at Paper Pen and Ink, and for 8 hours nonetheless...it was a little scary. But it wasn't incredibly busy, and it seemed to go by fast. I handled it better than I thought I would. So I trekked over there, picked up a frappuccino on the way, was there from 10-6, sheesh. From there I grabbed some dinner for us party-havers, took two balloons from the if you are a child you can have ONE for free section of harris teeter, met kit and rachel and headed over to bryan's for the setting up of our party. and amy and rachel 19th birthday extravaganza, mind you. See the cool thing about this was we started it earlier so we could have our little chill time with our friends who came to visit: it was good to see the lump and his girlfriend. i approve, they are good ones. Good music and good people, all that's really important. And then of course, the prov, and then back to the party, which produced: craziness, and just pure exhaustion on my end. But I really had a great time. Its good to have a big celebration every once and awhile, and for me, hasn't really occurred that much since recent years, and definitely never to this degree. And 24 hours later, I came back here, ready to just sleep. And now i have, and feel oh so much better.

So now that I am working two jobs and somehow surviving summer school, my summer activities are shaping up. I've had a fairly relaxing first few weeks, and now its going to be quite a reversal. Come visit me at Great Harvest. I start this friday.

Thank you to everyone who came. If you couldn't, I hope to see you soon. And thanks to you who genuinely cares. It makes me happy. Off to a bonfire, woo.
