I think that nine hours of sleep is plenty. It just so happen, though, that when you go to bed at 9:00 pm, nine hours later comes at oh, six o'clock in the morning. So yes, here I am, all awake and not really sure what to do with myself. :)
Left school Friday afternoon, and slept the entire four hour drive to Leslie's. Went to her prom grand march (ohmylordIamsogladIneverhadtobeinoneofthoseeventhoughherswasagoodtime), and then I proceeded to sleep for another eleven hours. I stayed awake the entire drive home (good chats w/ my mom), but I was pretty zombie-like the rest of the evening. So I went to bed at nine, and woke up on my own before six this morning. Apparently, when I got FAR LESS than my usual not-enough sleep, my body decided to catch itself up. So that's fine, and I am okay. And awake.
I would say it's funny to be home, but it's not yet. I guess because I haven't really been functioning for any of it. Leaving school was so bizarre this year. I kept saying, over and over again, that it hadn't hit me yet that we were all leaving, that I wouldn't see people for a potentially long while, that the year was over. And it still hasn't hit me. Maybe part of it is that I know I will see people this summer, whereas last summer we only had the brief Sweetstock trip. This summer, there are lots of plans. I guess what usually makes me flip out at the end of the semester is not seeing my friends for so long, and this semester, the stress was clearly about schoolwork. I guess the nice thing about that is it meant I wasn't sobbing goodbyes to my friends. Victoria and Mana left on Thursday afternoon. I'll give Bana a call today maybe (thank God I didn't have to say goodbye to her. I would have flipped out then.), and I called Vicky Thursday night- so I could avoid packing. :) I greeted her with, "Miss me yet?" and when she laughed at me, I felt my voice catch, like I was about to start the tears. But I held them off, and it was good to talk to her. I know we'll see each other in just a few weeks, so....
It really just doesn't feel like I am home for the next three months. I'm sure I'll get used to it, but... As much work as went in to packing and all, it think it sort of feels like someone just picked me up and plopped me in my house. As if tonight I will go to bed, but tomorrow I will wake up in my loft. Then Victoria and I will play the hair-dryer game, I will wander into Mana's room to see if she is awake yet, and we will go to Jess's room to get her for brunch. Victoria and I will beat each other up, and we'll see Katie over in Brandeis, as well as probably Jimothy. I think somehow, it just feels like that will happen when I get up tomorrow. I'm really not homesick for school though, not at this point. Which is good.
This entry feels like it has gotten kind of long without really saying anything.
I think the point might be that I have faith in this summer. I think it will go well. Epi will be home in a week, and I think Jenn already is. Mana I will have around for two or so weeks, and then a visit to her later on after she is back in Omaha. I have a job that I am excited about and get to start on Wednesday. I will probably see Katie in two weeks, and I'll definitely see Victoria in three. Victoria will be here later on, and then we will make that visit to see Mana. And Jen and Codak (and maybe but not necessarily my dear Jess) will come for RENT later. So there are plans to be put into action, especially as far as trips go. So I think there are fun times to be had. Mostly, I'm just glad that the semester is over.
I still feel like this entry didn't really say anything. You also have to keep in mind that it's now only 6:44 in the morning, and what else is there for me to do but unpack? ;)

"This entry feels like it has gotten kind of long without really saying anything."

She speaks, yet she says nothing! :-)

If it makes you feel any better Terry, I will not be seeing my college friends or boyfriend from June until January. I will see me parents and hopefully Jenn for a couple of days within that time. If you get too caught up in leaving and missing people, you forget about the opportunities you have in meeting new people. Yeah, you miss old friends. But new ones can make you feel better. I'm gonna miss Sean and Jenn and my family, etc, but I'm so psyched to meet new people in Gettysburg and then in Ecuador. And hopefully you'll make new friends at whatever summer job you get. :-) Be happy. The world is filled with friends who you have yet to meet

I miss my Therrt! Where are you? Come back please.

I miss my Victoria as well! I went shopping yesterday and I wanted to buy shoes at Kohl's, but they didn't have my size. Maybe when I come to visit you, you will have them. But at least the lady was nice to me, but I was in the Kohl's shoe department and there was no Victoria in sight! This did not please me. And I went to see "I am Sam" last night at the dollar theater, and that was good fun. We didn't even have to go back five times to try to see it, either- we saw it on our first try! That was new and exciting. When my mommy came to move me out, I took her to my new house so we could store things. Um, my new bedroom is the size of a bathroom. It's sort of small. But it will be good and happy. Hey! Maybe KP will find an annoying boy to date, and I could win that contest! 'Cause Colin sure didn't help me win. Oh, he helped me move out, and it was much appreciated. I miss my Victoria! No one throws things at me here, and if they did, it might not be with as much love as you did. And we left my plant basket at the house, so my clock is a lot closer to my face at night, and wow is it brighter and louder than i remember! I started work again, and it was good. I love my kids. Victoria! How am I supposed to drop out of school? (Please note the lack of paragraph divisions and transitions in this whole deal...) There are no classes to drop out of! I think this is a good thing. Um, it hailed here yesterday. At about the same time, it was shiney and bright outside. I love my toddlers. I should go now, as it might about be my bedtime. I'm coming to visit two weeks from two days from now! Wahoo! I miss you! Come to Minnesota! It's so happy here. I miss you.
much love and throwing things and Boblos and Spanish VCRs,
~Therrt
