Camping at Sandy Pond

I'm back from camping and drying my tent in my living room. The cats think it's a cat fort.

The weather was a little cooler than I would have liked it to be but it was bearable. I'd rather not be sweltering camping with no fans. It rained off and on most of the weekend.

Water and beer, the essentials. You can buy beer and wine on the camp ground. I think for the Fourth of July camping trip I'm going to make sangria.

Who invited the hipster bunny? I loved these light up glasses. I also colored in a coloring book. There's something very therapeutic about coloring. My future children are probably going be like "mom, we don't want to color anymore!" I did not bring the coloring book. There was a two and a half year old camping.

I ate so much great food. We had a shrimp boil one night, corn on the cob, burgers and dogs, so many snacks and roasted marshmallows. I should probably eat a few salads this week.

Back to work tomorrow but I had a great long weekend.

And it goes like this

I've spent most of this week away from the computer which was needed. I haven't even checked facebook in a while which is a big deal for me. It's become a habit to take out my phone and just see what's going on on facebook. I'm trying to get better about this.

I've had the best time the past couple of days. I went to karaoke at a gay bar with my friend Ashley. Ashley is not gay but she has a few friends that are and this bar just has such a fun atmosphere. I can see why she goes there with her friends.

Derek's friend Paul is in the navy and leaving to fulfill his duties so we took him out on Friday. I may or may not have borrowed his hat.

Please pardon this goofy grin on my face.I don't know if I can take a normal picture.

In true Ginny style I ate some pizza days and promptly passed out not long after this.

There were more parties and grilling the rest of the weekend. I attempted grilling corn on the grill in the husk and it came out great! I like it better than just boiling.

I've barely been home and my cats have gone insane because of that. They are crawling all over me for attention. No amount of petting will satisfy them. They should be back to normal tomorrow I hope.

And happy Father's Day! Sending out my love to my dad who passed a long time ago but is certainly not forgotten.

Doing my best lobster impression

Spent a hot but beautiful day by a lake on Saturday. I managed to get a bit of a sunburn despite sunblock and chasing the shade. What can I say, I am practically albino.

My cousin's bridal shower was today. I loved my idea of putting flowers in tea cups.
*pats self gently on sunburned back*

Sarina (the maid of honor) and my cousin Alexis.

I find bridal showers boring and they make me wish I was a dude and didn't have to go BUT I did have a good time and more importantly Alexis had a good time. Next up is the bachelorette party (holla!). Way more fun in my opinion. Seeing some pictures of me today was very much not fun. I feel like I look like a fat ass. Time to eat lettuce all the live long day! (Jokes! I like food too much to starve myself).

We've been roasting here in Boston and I don't have my AC in yet. Fun sweaty times over here. I have to wait for my landlord to put it in which means it will probably be put in in August when I'm ready to move. Hey it's like my own personal sauna. Might help with my fat ass problem.
