EDIT WITH PICS!!!
hummmmm.....well I am back from Camping and it has been two days and I am still EXHAUSTED! I will post decent pics up tomorrow maybe?
So We didn't get to the camp site till 9 pm on Friday night and had to set up with head lights and had to be quite by 11 pm! I could see the reflection of I think EVERY SINGLE star on the lake. I have to say the night sky out there was gorgeous! I could swear you could see every single one of the stars. I even REALLY CLEARLY SAY SCORPIO! We went to bed sometime after midnight. I didn't sleep well the first night. I thought it was because....well I was on the ground, i was sober and I was scared. It was like 70 outside, and I couldn't get comfortable.
Saturday morning it took like a whole french press of coffee to wake my ass half way up. I felt like I didn't get any sleep. I woke up every time someone walked past our tent. Or even made a sound. Which was often. I didn't feel safe or even felt like I had privacy, see I sleep naked sometimes and it was wayyyyyy to hot for clothing, but I couldn't sleep naked because I needed the windows open to let the breeze in ( if any) so I felt air circulating, and with me hearing "people" walking around I wasn't taking my clothes off ha ha!
By 1030 am we all went swimming in the lake that was like maybe ten feet away from our site. Well I didn't go swimming I did more wading and floating. (:singing: wade in the water...)ha ha my camping mates, had eggs and bacon (not me) for breakfast. See I don't eat if I don't feel comfortable or if I am sleepy. But don't digress I definitely made it up for lunch and dinner. Just wanted coffee. ha ha
We played a lot in the lake and ate a lot of "special" Brownies. How ever the baked goods didn't work for me. WHICH could be YET ANOTHER reason why I didn't get any sleep. See I get SUPER paranoid when it comes to my smoking habits. And I don't have to be high to get that paranoia, I for some reason always think people are judging me. So I try to be on my bestest behavior when surrounded by strangers. My friends who accompanied us all knew of my habits and didn't care nor will they ever about my relationship with mary jane...ha ha ha! It helps me sleep at night. Honestly I am surprised I didn't get a headache while camping....must have been all that "chick beer" I drank ( smirnoff).
That night we went to bed at like 10 pm I AM NOT JOKING! the birthday girl ( my bestest friend Amanda) Passed out from eating three brownies. So did all the camping buddies. I tried, and ate like 4 should have been shit faced but two hours later nothing. Again I was up and down, all night and got maybe 2 hours total of sleep. Stupid neighbors were arguing about what male and female animals were called. (lame)
The next morning I was the first up. I made a french press and watched the sun rise over the lake. So peaceful and filled me full of grace and serenity! And by 930 I was in the lake because it was over 90 degree's outside. We had pancakes. This time I ate. I guess two hours of sleep makes you hungry. but then I was going to the bathroom every 15 mins. EEP! Whats wrong with me. I floated in the lake and got goosebumps all over my skin. if I spent to much time in the lake my wrist hurt.....hummmmm I am falling apart...I laid out in the sun to try and get rid of my urban farmers tan. and well I got BURNED! all over....slightly pink sunburn that is now finally turning brown. I ate a HUGE lunch and dinner was good too. that night I didn't SLEEP AT ALL!!!!! WTF! I thought camping was suppose to be relaxing.....hummmm
The third and final day I was over it at 530 am....I started packing and had to wait for every other coffee drinker to wake up because I only had one batch left....Eye's burning I went to the bathroom and broke the fuck down. I missed my phone, I missed my computer, and I missed my friends, my bed, hell I miss ELECTRICITY! I have come to realize I am no camper. Not a happy one anyways. But you know what I didn't let anyone know because I didn't want to ruin the weekend. (sad right...fucking emo)
Amanda Had a great birthday! Her "dirty 30" was a hit. :sigh: Now for the drama. Chrissy ( Amandas ex) showed up....ut oh....I played nice....and maybe that is what was so exhausting for me. I am tried of playing nice with Chrissy I have been doing it for ten years, She was sober the whole time and I am proud of her for that.....but I have seen it ...heard it...before and my faith in Chrissy is gone. Good luck, and good riddance. ha ha!
Anywho, When I got home on Monday I fell on bed ( kind of like that new Ikea commercial) and fell asleep. I didn't wake up till 1130 talked to some friends and PAST OUT again. Woke up yesterday did some errands, played some GH5 ( I downloaded new songs) and even though I missed this thing...( the computer and sg with my friends) I didn't log on to update. I just wanted to sleep. And cuddle with Princess. I smoked all day yesterday and took a lot of weed naps ha ha
So now I am updating. with a full cup of coffee. and Jodi sitting next to me. Poor Jodi actually has blisters on her sun burn. We used SPF 50 the whole time and lathered that shit on every two hours. ( I didn't when i wanted to get rid of the urban farmer's tan) I know next time if i go camping I will be bringing ear plugs and an umbrella for more ample shade, oh and my WEED!!! I just wanna have fun! ha ha!
