I am back from vacation. Have some bizarre tan lines on my back from changing swim suits and poor application of sunblock. I also have a new collection of freckles. Lots of fun times. Pride in myself for surviving camping and the rain forest. Oh - and very happy with myself for going into the actual ocean. Nice having water clear enough that you can see nothing bad is going to bite/sting/hurt you :) Not toooo many bug bites. Lots more alcohol than normal. Did not stick to my diet for even a second but that was ok - the scale tells me that only cost me 2.2 pounds gained for a week of french fries and cheeseburgers and beer. Roomie doesn't want to kill me (as far as I know anyway). I don't want to kill roomie. Customs coming home was pretty much painless - they let me back into America. Should probably get my citizenship sometime though. I am always scared they are going to cut my green card up in front of me and tell me to go back where I came from or something. Yes I know I am crazy. Need to go to the beach or lake again this summer to get more use out of all the new stuff I got for the trip. Very amusing that people seemed to think I was a natural red-head. Also good to know that even if I am a spoiled princess type, I can handle semi-roughing it. One must adapt afterall, maybe even manage to have fun. I am still scared of bugs tho. Nasty critters. Speaking of roughing it - nice to come home to hot water and a really comfy bed and air conditioning and *very* excited puppies. And I missed my friends. Lots. Now I have two days to chill out before going back to work. Going to be a long week trying to get caught up. Also I will be poor for 2 more weeks. This works out cuz I should only spend my time working and at the gym anyway. Where/When is the next trip? The list of places I want to go is totally massive.
