Family Camping Trip? Yes, please.

I have been so busy with work that I haven't been able to barely get any sleep, so being able to blog? Not even enough time. It doesn't help that I was reading a really good book the other day and stayed up till dawn (four in the morning) to finish it. Wow, that is lame. Most of my friends stay up till that time, but not because they're reading a book. It seems my nerdy side has turned me nocturnal, not my social rebellion part. Rebellion? What is that funny word?

Not only that, but I have been trying to pack for the camping trip that my family has planned. I will be going with my sister and her husband after work tomorrow up to the campsite. This is the first and probably last time that my whole family will be camping together all at once. I mean, it isn't just my immediate family, but two other families. Technically they aren't really family by blood, but when you grow up with all of them and they are always there for you, I must say that they are family. "Well, duh, we're family" is a phrase that I hear very often from these people.  Who is to tell me any different? I would deny the fact that they aren't.

This is a long weekend trip, and I am so excited to go! Today, I went into the bank to take care of some personal matters and saw both C and W. When I went up to the window, I was amazingly surprised to find out that he (C) was as excited as I was about the trip. He just kept telling me that I would be needing a LOT of bug spray. It made me laugh for him to think that I couldn't handle putting on bug spray. I mean seriously, we have been going on these camping trips together for four years now. And before that we had been getting in trouble together with campfires and being outside. Maybe since the few months I have been away from home and at college, he has forgotten how much time we used to spend together outside.

This camping trip will remedy that. I will make sure of it. If he thinks that I am no longer a pyro and can't handle the outdoors anymore, he has another thing coming. This trip will be great fun! I just know it!
