Going Home

A series of incredible events just fell into place, the combination of which means I am leaving in about an hour and a half to go back to Berkeley for almost five days. I can't wait to see what this rush packing job looks like, seriously...

The break between this session of camp and the next does not start until Friday at 2 p.m. but my time off begins Wednesday night at six so I've been trying--unsuccessfully until today--to find a ride back to the Bay Area with anyone who's leaving camp early. This morning I heard of someone who's actually going late late tonight and after talking with the director at dinner, my arrangements to take an extra day off unpaid and leave for the East Bay with Jackie are all set.

Over last session break, on July 5th, I was rearended on the freeway while driving a car I was borrowing for part of the summer while its owner was out of the country. Only yesterday was the authorization finally given for me for me to begin the repair process as part of the insurance claim so I need to be in town during the business day/week to make that happen. For that reason, and also because I am filthy in the way only an actual bathtub can cure plus have overwhelming amounts of errands to run and am really very friendsick for my three closest pals left behind in the Bay Area, I am totally psyched to be getting out of here. Rebecca, get my bedroom ready--Aubrie, clear your playdate calendar--Batshir, save me a seat at Saturday morning services. I am coming home :)
