Assorted Thoughts

The first camping trip of the season has officially been undertaken! OK, so basically it was for one night, but it had all the fixin's of a camping trip: incredibly dirty dogs, out houses, cold nights, and (horror upon horrors) no makeup. It was pretty productive actually, cuz I managed to finish all my readings for EAS and continue to procrastinate for English. Also I built a damn fine fire and the marshmallows turned out just perfect. Ok, ok, so dad helped instruct me in the proper building of a fire, but I lit it all by myself with one match. One match, you guys! My new greatest achievement. But not really.
This morning we went for a walk down the "path" (read: deer-dropping-ridden swamp)and my mother answered the call of the muskrats. Or something like that. But seriously, the came up pretty close to the shore. Being all muskrat-y. Awww.
So I've survived that. The trip, I mean. And in all honesty, THAT is my new greatest achievement.
