Vacation

I am currently "vacationing" - that is, I'm in PA for an entire week (Momma and Daddy are over the moon - I haven't been home for a full week since Christmas) to finish a root canal this afternoon. I really don't need to take a full week for the procedure, but I really did want to see the family for a little while.

I've already been roped into riding on the church float in the July Fourth parade, which will also mean that I'll go to the park for some of the festivities on said day. (I count myself lucky - I narrowly escaped walking and holding a banner, on the basis that I'm visiting and the banners are bigger than me.)

It's been pretty peaceful in the short time I've been here thus far. I had a bath last night and neglected to subdue my hair with chemicals while it was wet, so I'm sporting a Hermione Granger look this morning - but it's all good. Later today, I'll be running a few errands in and around Lewisburg, mainly because I miss driving around here. It's so pretty and it's one of my favorite things to do. I'm mainly just looking forward to relaxing and figuring out how to sleep in again - I lost that ability between last summer and my school year, so I'm struggling to get that back.

A couple of jobs in the offing post-graduation. The first, which is looking like a lot of fun, is part-time au pair to a 3-month old little girl. Her family wants to take me on vacation with them so I can watch the baby. I am okay with that. (Hello, paid vacation? Oh yes. And the baby is well behaved, so it's not exactly a hardship.) Also, I'm applying over at Little Keswick School to be a residential counselor - it's a boarding school for boys with learning disabilities, and if I do the right paperwork, they'll pay for me to get my masters' in teaching. Also-also, it's only about half the week spent there so I can keep my other jobs.

Mrr. I may have just written myself out.
