so tomorrow morning i am leaving to visit my family (exhibit a: my cuz tina and i in the photo of the moment box) up in connecticut.
the few days i get to spend up there a year make up the one and only true vacation i have ever really known. i mean, we always went down to OC for a week... but it was always weird with dad and all... so CT was literally an escape from everything.
it'll be my brother and i paired off, as always, with our cousins tina and ian. these two. words cannot even explain. we'll spend the week wasting time. swimming in pat's pool, watching movies that we've watched thousands of times before, playing cards and eating waaay too much candy, complaining that there is never anything to do, and then turning around to wonder where the week went when it's time to say goodbye.
it's just one of those things... those bonds with people that you just can't describe... those experiences that can't be paralleled. i think it's something about the summer heat and that new england smell.
no- not jersey stench. please.
anyway, i probably won't blog until wed night... if there is time after my flight home and a quick dash out for my karaoke fix. then i'll have two jam-packed days of guard goodness and hopefully leave on friday afternoon for salisbury to visit joenell and adam.
i seriously cannot wait for tomorrow morning to get here. maybe i should get back to packing before it does.
