PANIC MODE
Aug. 11th, 2003 08:29 amSo, I have been a tad ill, but of course I left all the house-cleaning until right before I leave for Newport. So I'm getting picked up in two and a half hours, and I have not packed, and the house is a disaster. My parents come back, oh, tomorrow. Chris gets to do anything that I don't do.
Plus, all my financial aid stuff is due on the 21st, and I haven't got time to take it to school today. I think there's other stuff I have to do other than turn in the paperwork I've got.
I was supposed to go to a treesit later this week where there was going to be a teach-in campout type thing, and Starhawk was planning on being there, but I'm going to have my period this week, plus I have no idea where all my long underwear etc is, plus I have to deal with all my financial aid crap, plus I have no idea how to get down there. So I might skip it, which really and truly sucks. I haven't been to a treesit since I left Eagle Creek.
But!! I'm going to be in South Beach (just south of Newport) tonight!! And I will be there until Thursday!! I'm ridiculously happy about this. I haven't been to the coast at all in a while, and I'm such an ocean person. Going to frolic on the sand and try not to freeze my ass off. My glasses are a pain in the ass while at the coast though. If it's windy, the salt spray makes my glasses really foggy and hard to see through, but I can't wipe them off, because the salt dries, plus there's little bits of sand in the wind. So if I do wipe them, they get so scratched they look about the same as they do, before I wipe them.
Newport is a beautiful town, and not *too* touristy. I hope we get to go to the aquarium. I'm looking forward to seeing those goofy seals that sit on the docks and bark at each other all day. Plus, I just like to walk up and down the sand sorta zoned out. It's great. The only other time I feel that peaceful is sitting in front of a harp--even though I can't play it yet.
In any case, I'm obviously going to be offline for a few days. I will try to keep track of what I do, so I can come back and tell you all my wonderful adventures. See you Thursday!!
