Hello Mudda...
Jul. 26th, 2002 10:11 pmDear Mom and Dad,
Greeting from camp. It's hot here and everything smells like hot dogs, but I'm dealing with it the best I can. Here are the highlights so far:
1) Meeting a biker guy who's name is Lord Christ. I'm not kidding. He joined our organization and chain-smoked like there was no tomorrow.
2) Taking a man (57 years old) from Iceland through the campground at 10pm in the dark to help him relocate his camping party. We drove around for about 30 minutes until I luckily made the correct turn without knowing it, and there was his yellow, blue and black tent. We spoke of September 11th, Iceland and the weather along the way. It was just awesome. He insisted on giving me a $5 tip for being so nice to him; there was no talking him out of it. He also chain-smoked like there was no tomorrow.
3) Uttering the words "Thank you Roscoe, have a safe trip home!" and meaning them.
4) Consuming rougly 4 sticks of string cheese per day for the last week.
5) Talking Dismemberment Plan and Ben Folds with one of the temporary employees, who's a music teacher in his 40s.
6) Consuming roughly 2 red, white and blue popsicles per day for the last week.
7) Working on my deep breathing and re-reading Anger by Thich Nhat Hanh
The chocolate chip cookies you sent were great, but they didn't last long. Send money soon.
Love,
Bri
