  Yesterday was lots of fun. I really enjoyed spending the day with Raven and Susie and especially enjoyed seeing Raven so happy, open and as carefree as she ever gets. It was nice. Water is good. Sun is bad (I got burnt... I knew before I left I'd get burnt... I always burn... grr.... yes I did use sunscreen) and food is good too. The Kung Fu people were nice. Susie's parents are great fun. The location was beautiful and the weather was good - not too hot or too cold. &nbsp; I spent the night at her house. I'm not going to see my Susie again until August... that may not sound like a long time but imagine: &nbsp; a) having to have a growth detached from your hip b) having to use half brain-power until then 'cause you share a mind c) being pathetically lonely because you don't really have any other friends that you can just do anything with at any time regardless of mood &nbsp; I mean, I do have Raven but she volunteers in the summer all day at a kids Summer camp.
One can also cannot take Raven at any time 'cause she has... special moods.... and isn't always compatible with mine. It's hard to explain but Raven's friendship is just that much more work. It's good work and I love her, but it is sometimes work. &nbsp; I have nothing to do today. I didn't fall asleep till like 3:00 at Susie's and we had to get up at 10:30 to get to her orthodontist.
I then had to walk home from her orthodontist which is a lot farther than I would have liked to walk (it took like an hour). Ergo, I am too tired to edit. That's ok, I have 5 days Susie free (ie distraction free) to edit before I go to debate camp. I'm kinda grouchy too, I know I was kinda curt to Chelsea over lunch... Maybe I'll go read. That's low brain power and should make me feel better. It'll get my mind of lack of Susie anyhow. &nbsp; And I spent the first 10 days of July in Ontario! !
