Woo!
I was in mourning this whole school year over the loss of two friendships. One was a long, dragged-out blowup, and the other was a long, dragged-out growapart. However, I mourned too soon, because yesterday, Friend A called me and we had a three hour catchup, and today, Friend B IMed me and we had a half-hour catchup ending with plans to meet on Sunday for a much longer one. I really need to prune my soul of all its melodrama so that I can grow some balls in its place (demolishing my fountain of bad metaphors might also be a good idea.).

I started work today as a counselor for Camp Wilderness in Ventura. I am a terrible camp counselor. "What's a God's Eye?" I asked ten-year-old Dakota as seven-year-old Brett showed *me* how to play Cat's Cradle. My goal for the summer is to learn how to start a lanyard. Also to play kickball. I miss playing kickball.

When I got home from college, I was afraid to leave the house. I'd let my hair grow out and my eyebrows grow in. I was unkempt, ungroomed, uncouth! However, today was the day all that changed. At 11:00 AM, I had a hair appointment. My long shaggy penny-pinching-college-student four-inch-roots scragglemane was transformed into a cornucopia of updated color with minimal split ends. At 2:00 PM, I got my eyebrows waxed. Gone were the two Frida-Kahlo clumpy caterpillars united together in the middle of my forehead. I left with two shapely, arched masterpieces. At around 3:30 PM, I put a bunch of makeup that my mommy had treated me to yesterday. I was stylin'.
I also had an appointment to renew my driver's license today. At......9:30 AM.
Oh, wait. Shit.
I was thinking I'd be all cute and take "before" pictures this morning before all my appointments, so I could look back and giggle. But that's OK. The DMV did it for me.
