Day (s) ~ Twelve, Thriteen and Fourteen

Hello y'all. We're leaving for our camping trip soon so this will be my last update for the next ten days or so. There still isn't much to say, but I will be keeping a little log of what happens during the trip, so there will be a nice big long entry or two about how that goes ;)

Again, thank you Carrie for your comments... they always make me smile and feel like I own the world.



Day ~ Twelve

We didn't do much today since it was so hot outside. Caroline took me to a big store called Khol's (or something along those lines) and I ended up buying a brown summer dress. I was unsure about it at first.. but I think once I've worn it for real it will be all good. It was on sale, and none of the other dresses really appealed to me much.

Day ~ Thirteen

We went to the museum in Denver! It was really crowded because there were several groups of kids from various Summer camps... so yeah... lots of screaming. haha. Oh well. I thought that the Egyptian Exhibit was really cool. There were these two mummies on display, one was a poor woman and the other was a rich woman. The poor woman was creepy because she was really poorly wraped so you could see her face kind of. Her teeth were sticking out :S yikes. She was also very twisted looking as far as her body goes. I read the plaque and it said that since she was poor she was mummified with all of her organs left in her. There were also some CAT scans that we could look at to see her bones underneath the thin layer of linen. The Rich woman was in a poor man's coffin... it was possible that the coffin's were swithced a long time ago. She was wealthy because she had several layers of really nice linen wrapped around her. You couldn't see anything of her face, it was so well wrapped. on the plaque it read that her organs were removed, wrapped in linen and then put back into her. The CAT's for her were really interesting too, because you could see the amulets and stuff that were wrapped up with her, and her skeleton almost looked happy compared to the poor woman's.

When we got into the car to head home it was about 107 degre.... that's an oven setting! Now I understand what itfeels like to be cooked alive. It was HOT. And I was wearing pants (why?!). aha. When we got home I didn't bother changing because I just sat outside in the shade with the guitar for a while. I'm slowly learning how to play "Your Ex-Lover is Dead" by Stars. The title sounds a bit... sad but it's a really pretty song.

Day ~ Fourteen

Tomorrow we leave for the big camping trip. I am still in my pyjamas, and probably won't be changing today... we won't be going into town or anything, so it's all good. UNless I decided to take a walk later, then I might change. MAYBE. I put aside all of the tings I am taking on the trip and put all of my other things away in my suitcase so it's not messy down here when the people looking after the cat come. I'm missing the Buskers... which is a first for me. If I am lucky they'll be in Ottawa when I get home, so I can still see them... It will just be a lot more crowded. Oh well. I hope all of my friends are having a good time today :3

Shelly is slowly making her journey to Colorado just as I'm leaving. I think she said she would be here maybe tomorrow. If we're lucky she's going to still be around when I get back from my camping trip so we're going to try and gt together and hang out on Pearl Street. I think that would be really nice... seeing as I'm so deprived of people my age. ah well... maybe just maybe I'll meet someone before I leave. That would be really nice.

DESTINY

P.S. you work that short skirt and that long loooooong jacket ;)
