summer of '06
What to Look Forward to:
1. My Birthday.
July 9th.
mark it down.
2. Softball.
There is something very poignant about the competitive clash that occurs when two local churches join together on a softball field. 3 years in the league and we have made it to the semifinals twice and won the championships once. This year we have been moved up to the A-Division, so it will be interesting to see how well we can do against the juggernauts of the community. I am glad that 4 years ago I had the ambition to get a team started because it has definitely given me something to look forward to every summer.
3. SoulFest.
Even though I got poison ivy on my FACE (!!!) last year, SoulFest is always a good time. Even though, the music might, as a whole, suck.
I just looked at the artist lineup to post the bands that I will look forward to seeing, but to be honest... there aren't any. However, its a tradition and I will enjoy myself regardless.
4. Great East Lake.
Another tradition-- Every year since I can remember, my family has a rented a place on a lake for a week. It used to be excruciatingly boring, but now I can drive. And since it is only 45 minutes away, I can come and go as I please. It usually falls on the week of my birthday.
5. The beach.
6. Red Sox games.
7. Not being pale.
What Not to Look Forward to:
1. Humidity. No A/C in my car.
2. Working at Dicks.
3. Getting myself out of debt.
4. The inevitable really bad sunburn i always get.
5. Bees, hornets, wasps, mosquitoes.
6. Figuring out what to do for the rest of my life.

my mind isnt wired for it.
i need a job that involves thinking.
maybe if you went to college, you'd be able to get a real job.
Your family goes to Great East Lake every summer?!?!? I have never heard this before. The last time I went to Great East Lake was back when your brother and I would get to go to Russ Hall's camp... circa 1989.
