9:12am Kenai, AK
Not much to say really. I've started preparing for the end. I am weeding out the things that i don't need to bring back with me and giving them away. I am starting to look at what i have acquired and what i can/should mail home. My days are getting shorter - there just isn't as much to do. Yesterday they chartered a bus so that all of the kids could go to fred meyers for 2hrs. which was great because they needed it. They filled one whole bus so we supplemented it with a 12 passenger van and then i drove a mini van. It was nice to get off camp for a little bit but i really didn't have anything to get at fred meyers. After we came back I shaved my legs for the 4th time this summer. (i was starting to creep myself out) I decided to shave in the sink. No one was really around so i thought i was safe. I was on my second leg when this girl walks in. I look at her and say, "I have a hard time shaving in the shower." She says 'okay' and proceeds to wash her hands. I catch her looking at my leg, how could she not - it's in her face, and she looks amazed. In an effort to distract her from the chia pet that i am shearing off my leg i ask her if she had fun at the store. She says 'no.' I am confused. "You didn't have fun at the store." "I do not understand." It was then that it hit home that she had no clue about anything that i had said to her. I was just some hairy weirdo hanging out in the bathroom. I stopped trying to make conversation. It will be so nice when i can shave regularly - not in the sink.
