You make me nervous, throat dry…

No, really, that’s what time I started this blog. At 3:11 it occurred to me that I am officially on summer vacation. I have been literally working my ass off since January, with school, the sites, my kids, the house (hahaha) and entertaining hippies.

Summer vacation tastes a lot like Scarty’s, the drink of champions. Its kind of like a Cosmo, only no unnecessary orange is added, unless you happen to have it. If you don’t, its no big deal. That’s the point of the Scarty. Or was it a Scarly? I can’t remember, but it really doesn’t matter. Summer is much like that – there’s kind of a plan, but whatever happens, happens. Just like it should be.

So, this week, I have finished my final essay of the semester on Women, Faith and Mystic Religion AND somehow pulled together a halfway fantastic Power Point presentation for school. Check those off the list.

I created, packaged and mailed a ton of tie dye. Check.

I created The Vulva Skirt. Check.

I’ve invoiced old clients. Check.

About two weeks ago, the pest control people rolled around, and said that my neighbors were having issues with ants, so they wanted to see if I needed anything. Two weeks ago, I had no problem with ants, so I politely declined their services. Yesterday, I found them in my couch… where I sleep. Ugh. I have anticide in the house. *Cough cough* But, no more ants are sleeping with me. Check.

I was stood up this week at a MeetUp, but then met some pretty cool ladies today. There is something comforting about women who are not only unafraid to breastfeed in pubic, but who also can walk down a nature trail with their babies strapped to their chests while breastfeeding. It kind of defines their view of the world and cuts through some of the bullshit. I can totally appreciate that. Now that its summer, I actually have the time to devote to being active offline. I wonder if they’ll like Scarty’s.

To top off my week, even if not in chronological order, I got a strange phone call at 7am from my little brother. He was in the area, going home, and decided to stop by. Luckily, he’s my brother and even if I tried to get him lost in my pre-coffee haze, he made it to my house, unscathed. So, wow. He is awesome and we’re totally hitting some baseball games this summer.

I AM ON A BREAK!! WOOT!
