River Dance

Well, it finally happened. I actually made it to the river for our big Summer kick-off party. We rallied the troops at the bar on Saturday and we even managed to get up on Sunday morning after going to bed at 6am. Thank God for Ram and Lisa, our little early risers got the crew up by 9am. And, after years of being to busy or indisposed as I was last summer, I had a day of straight smiling and laughing while floating in an innertube with a bag of wine as my buddy. Yeah. I was very Britney Spears. Lots of bruises on my legs, beef jerky, and a bag of wine. (FYI-the new trailer trash/white trash will be simply referred to as Britney. Sums it all up while adding a touch of superstar class that only Brit can bring to the table.)
It was amazing. I can't remember the last time I had that much fun. I can't remember smiling for a straight 12 hours at all. Highlight, being stopped by cops to be carded. (I guess when 9 people need 3 coolers of beer and wine to make it on a two hour trip, it raises a red flag.) Low Point, well my little Costa Rican Princess, who I love dearly, threw up in my car on the way home. Luckily, that is how much I love her. Sweetie, you can forever vomit in my car and I will still think the world of you. You are that cool. It was awesome to watch her though. She went from fear and almost breaking my hand as we went down the chutes initially, to standing on her tube balancing while giggling like a little girl. She said that it was her first "Costa Rica" experience in the 3 years of being here. I think that means we finally got her out of the city and she was in a group of friends that were totally chill. I love seein that chick smile.
It was the group that I would hand select to go with too. Not the whole group together with one or two I don't care for. It was my favorites. It made me realize how much I am going to miss these guys when I move this coming year. It was my first "Wyoming" experience in a long time. I can't wait to go again, and I am officially inlove with every single person who went. (Ram, you are the best)
So, I am off to develop a roll of film that I only remember six pictures being taken from. This should be entertaining. Ah, the Summer of fun has begun. No more strugglin. I quit. I resign to just kick back and enjoy my friends for the next 2 months. No school, no drama, just smiles. This is gonna be fun.
