My summer vacation
On vacation I:
- Ate my weight in potato chips. for breakfast. every day.
- Waited in vain for the sun. Or at least for the rain to stop.
- It didn't.
- Ate many several sour patch kids candies. Perhaps my weight's worth, but who can tell. Those little buggers don't weigh much... and I might. especially if I keep this up.
- Looked at my list of things to be done around the house on my vacation and by around the house I of course mean OUTSIDE the house, the part being rained on.
- Watched lots of tv. Without having to share the remote or account for why I was watching 15 straight hours of ETV.
- I still sent the boys to daycamp.
- Watched. It. Rain.
- Convinced myself that if it wasn't raining, I would of course be taking long walks, exercising and otherwise creating world peace.
- Perhaps had ice cream for lunch because when on vacation while the children are at camp, I am apparently a two year old left home alone. Speaking of which, isn't it naptime...
- Cleaned my house, the inside part not being rained on. As in CLEANED, like vacuuming the drapes and moping the floor and sweeping and other once a year activities.
- Pretended I was camping because everything feels damp and yucky, just like at the end of a camping trip. Only thing missing is the pervasive smell of campfire smoke clinging to every surface.
- Looked longingly at my backyard fireplace where I was going to have a nice fire and clean up the miscellaneous brush littering my yard. Damn you rain. You're making my yard stay messy.
- Also? I expect you, Rain, to come mow this lawn because it grows about 5 inches a day what with all this watering!
- Perhaps bitched a bit about the weather

sounds like an awesome vacay ... oh, except maybe for the 2 feet of rain and everything smelling dampish (us too, here in MA...) :-)
Ice cream for lunch sounds divine!
Apparently, I'm 2 also. And not unhappy about it one bit.
A fellow New Englander! Did I tell you I HATE RAIN!
