well camp has been going well... three weeks with campers down. this
last week was early bird. in my first 5 years of working at camp i have
never had a bed wetter or a puker and then monday night i had tow kids
wet the bed and one kid throw up... but he made it to the garbage can
so that wasn't too bad. then tuesday night i had someone wake me up at
10 (bedtime was 9:15) to go to the bathroom. a kid was crying afriad of
the dark at 12. kid with a bad nightmare at 2. and a kid throw up in
his bunk at 3:45. so i got to clean that up by flashlight. got back to
bed at 4:15. another kid woke me up at 6 and then i just stayed up
because i normally get up at 6:30 anyway. didn't get much sleep that
night.... wednesday night was the best only got woken up twice. they
went home on thursday

i took the weekend off. its family camp right now but i am in the
wonderful place called northwestern college right now. hanging out with
some wonderful people. i was going to go home thursday and then drive
here yesterday. so thursday i was like "i'll just leave when the fun
stops" cause i had nothing to do at home so why not hang out at camp
more. i called my parents a little before 5 saying "just ahve to pack a
few things and grab a bite to eat and then i'll be leaving. i ended up
not leaving untill 9:30 or so.... so i called them before i really
left. it was fun just sitting around talking and stuff.

anyway got here last night. and there is some group fundamentalist
christian association or something like that having a high school
retreat thing here this week staying in the dorms. so we went out with
water balloon launchers. it was pretty funny. one couple was sitting on
the lawn having what looke dlike a pretty serious DTR and so we went
around a corner and launched some balloons at the over be building.
eventually the kid came over and was like " are you guys having fun?"
us: "yeah"
kid: " you really get a kick out of this"
us: "uh huh"
kid: "well i don't care if you are having fun, why don't you just take your fun out into the woods"
me: "because there is nobody to shot at in the woods... duh"
kid: "shot at some squirrels or something"
ben: "its night you can't see squirrels when its dark out"

the kid said somemore stuff that i didn't really listen to... it was
really funny cause he was like a junior at the most and he was trying
to be all serious and tough and we were just laughing and laughing.

good times

  1. Blue, red, yellow, orange, etc. I think that the balloons have many different colors. Sounds like you had a pretty stellar week...except for you know, the puking and the bed-wetting and such. Anyway, it sounds like you had a good time laughing at this teenager. What a goof.I'll tell you what I've done this morning. Watched World Cup soccer and cut three fingers trying to scoop up some ice cream for myself. Yeah, I'm good at doing that...

  2. That is a marvelous story, the camp one, I appreciated it a lot. Especially since I heard from one of the campers that he was the one who puked at 3 in the morning. I just have to say it is a great story.
