Summer? Nah.
Summer used to be one of my favorite times of the year, because I could just sit back and do nothing. This year is different. I’m dying here.
First, the heat is horrible, I hate the heat. Second, it’s that class I’m taking that is sucking out all my life energy. Robmarie was right when she predicted my death this summer. Third, this house is a battlefield - my mom hates my grandma and vice versa, and that leads to the fourth, we’re moving out of this house soon, and it’s not fun to move furniture around. I always had a big strong man around to do that for me. Now we have to do the dirty work ourselves. And fifth, a family friend is going on vacation, and my mom decided that we should go do house-sitting until she comes back from vacation. I think the idea of living in someone else’s house for a week as if it were a resort is really creepy, but hey, I’m leaving today.
I might not be around this week, unless I decide that using our friend’s computer while she’s in another country is not creepy.
Crappy summer - I guess I’m almost in “the real world” now :P
Wow, that really sucks. I hate moving furniture. It’s been really hot where I live as well, so I’m really grateful for working air conditioning. :P
I know … moving really sucks, doesn’t it? But look on the bright side, once you’ve FINISHED moving, life will be good again. =)
The heat here is getting unbearable too. =_= Vancouver usually has fairly acceptable summers, around the 20-30 degree range, but now it’s like 35. Ugggh. ==
Aw, I love the summer. My birthday is then (tomorrow actually). I can see how you hate it from the moving and your mother and grandmother not getting along. That is with my mom and grandma. It really sucks. x_x
Hope your move and class don’t kill you before the heat does!
BUAHAHA — You will be missed!! XD Although karma bit me in the butt, because I *also* started taking a class during the summer, heh. It’s not university related, and it’s all really basic computer stuff… but that’s really the problem. 4 hours, 6 days a week of stuff I learned when I was in 9th grade… it’s like being slashed to death with a butterknife, or something!
By the way, really crappy summer… the HEAT, man — The HEAT!! What’s up with that?
P.S. Housesitting sucks! I had to do that sometimes, many years ago, for some lady who looooooved to go out gambling to casinos and shizz. She took care of her bed-ridden mom, so she kept her in one of the rooms, and I was always so scared that something would happen to her while the lady was away [plus I felt kinda sorry for her]. Oh, but I hated staying at that house! It was really anxiety-inducing for me. I’m glad those days are over…
House sitting sounds interesting. I would never be able to do that, since it wouldn’t feel “right,” but at least you’ll be away from the battlefield. :]
It was incredibly hot here in California a few weeks ago as well. It’s funny how I complained about it being too cold, and then I was complaining about how it was too hot. Well, at least the weather is mild-ish now. For me, the coldest part of the house is my garage, so maybe seek refuge somewhere like that? Bathrooms are nice places as well unless someone has to go to the bathroom… Oh, and popsicles help with the heat. I like the grape flavored ones. ;]
House sitting is awesome! Well..it would be more awesome if it was just you and not the whole family too. I used to housesit for family friends and stuff by myself, and I’d walk around the house naked and stuff. :P
Sounds like you’re having a crap summer. :( I’m sure things can only get better though! Optimism@
