What an imaginative title I've come up with, eh? And also- all this anonymous commenting is getting a bit out of hand.
So yeah, the angst is back. Brought on by, what else?, parents. And driver's ed. Ugh. And the combination of the tow is just deadly. Because I don't like driving. Not a bit. And my parents make it 30x more stressful just being there. It's like, YES, I see the car. NO, I am not going to hit it. YES, I see the stop light, I am stopped, duh. Because I mean, I am by no means a good driver. I still have trouble remembering which way the signal thingy goes. And as much as I try, I still can't do the SMOG (signal, mirror, mirror, over shoulder, go) thing the correct way. And the fact that I was almost hit on my last drive means mother has to have a spaz attack every time the subject is breached. I'm so over this bullshit. I need to blow this popsicle stand, like, now.
But luckily, salvation has come just in time in the form of journalism camp. YES! It's that time of year again, and I am promising, here and now -HOLD ME TO THIS- that there will not be another Dan. There can only be one Dan. And one Dan is plenty for one life time. (if you haven't a clue what I'm blathering on about, go through my old posts until you get to this time last year.... Or don't. I've def. improved as a writer in that time. I think.)
But I will be blathering (love that word today) on about pretty much everything else. And I will admit, I've got a few romantic prospects lined up already, and I'm just waiting to see how it all plays out.
I did end up going to coffee with Jacob and Peter, as well as Shannon, who is lovely in every way. It was very nice. And informative. I learned bunches. Yay for all having blogs!
And I have drivers ed in the morning (blech), but then I'm going ice skating with my pals, and then the next morning, I will be on my way to camp! I was trying to describe my excitement level to my friends today, and they didn't get it. It's not jumping up and down screeching excited, it's this rolling boil inside of me that keeps threatening to spill over. What a great description.
And also - more angst caused by friends I may have been friends with for too long. Ugh, long story I'm not willing to tell. I need sleep, and my ribs hurt (they always hurt these days. Why?!) so I am going to take some Tylenol and settle down for.... 6 hours of sleep at the most. And a little less angst because I've dropped a friend who was causing me a lot of internal turmoil.
Well, hope you all have a really great few days. I know I will. Or at least I'm really hoping I do.
Cheers.

YES. There it is! I get that feeling but never had found an adequate description for it. I am so stoked you came up with that. =)
And don't worry about the driving; that's one of the few things where there is actually nothing for it but experience. I hated everyone telling me that, but it turned out to be true. the parents in the car though, yeah, that can be aggravating; I still drive worse when they're riding along.
J-camp ftw; I hope you had a fantastic time.
