Back Down

There was a Tea and a Candle Light Performance. Over 200 people when to the Candle Light Performance. The rehearsals for it light up my day, and gave me something to look forward to. It was the telling of the story of Fanny Hooe (my favorite part of the job) by all of us. I had such a fantastic rush of energy after the performance. The tea was as well attended as expected, but our guests loved it, and I had a ball talking for over an hour and a half.

After these events were over everything seemed odd and strangely fast. There were nights in Calumet, long lunch breaks, many nights at the restaurant, and quite a few drinks. I went to mass with J and swam across Fanny Hooe (two big accomplishments). I skipped stones, and tried to enjoy my friends and our little harbor as much as I could before leaving it for God knows how long. I then jumped straight into a two day Cermak twin over load as the Major was in town. Now I'm alone in my parents condo. I miss the other three more than I thought I would, but I also am enjoying some alone time. New York, don't worry, I'm coming.

The Last of Da Harbor

Yesterday was an amazing day. I slept in until 9:45, and then jumped on E to wake her up and headed to The Pines where we split a cinnamon roll and an omelet. Ahh, the best of both worlds! We then went for a hike around Horse Shoe Harbor. It was beautiful and tons of fun climbing on the rocks! From there we went to the Delaware Mine. I have mixed feelings about this attraction. It was amazing to have such freedom to explore a historic mine, but I'm glad I didn't force my parents to go to this one. The 100 stairs and the lack of tour guides would've bothered them. We then went swimming at the Great Sand Bay where there were white caps on the waves while we floated along on our rafts. We brought parasols and didn't miss a chance for a photo opp. We then convinced George to eat wings with us (it didn't take much) and hiked Stairway to Heaven with him. We were so hot then that we required ice cream and a dip in Fanny Hooe. Then, we were cold so we had a sauna. The light was out so we did it by flash light. The night ended with some euchre instruction followed by some jr high dance flash backs. Fun was had by all. It's hard to believe I only have 11 more days!

UP and DOWN

I'm back in da Harbor after going down state for a few days.  It was an interesting, dramatic, calming, chaotic, familiar, and nomadic trip.  I woke up next to several interesting beings (one of them being my parent's beagle, Lucy).  I faced the facts in Ypsi after eating pineapple and black olives on pizza, and napping with Harry Potter.  There were breaking moments, but I was still happy to be there under any circumstance.  I got drunk and went to Nectos and got more drunk, and learned a gay friend is a friend indeed, when you're in need.  I had a power networking session thanks to the Wifi in Cass Cafe, and met Ms. Mary at the DIA.  I saw Jackie do Shakespeare and lunched with a Shafer.  I surprised my mother and father, and was all business with Shawna, but the pizza, just won't leave my mind.  I'm still slightly crazy.  I've heard the broken hearted make the best New York actors.
