blogging from the bahamas!

i’m typing this on my trusty powerbook in the sharaton paradise island on wedneday night, to be posted whenever i can get my hands on an internet connection. i feel so disconnected!

so the mca______ family is officially in the bahamas! my passport has been stamped, cars are driving on the left side of the road, people are demanding to braid my hair for exorbitant prices. it’s amazing!

just a note to self to add to my ongoing mental list of things i must never do to my children: 1) the “i told you so” regarding sunscreen, 2)”see this is what happens when you don’t get enough sleep”. two annoying phrases that should be uttered with the least frequency possible.
yes, this does mean i have an unattractively blotchy sunburn already (i need to give up the dream that someday i’ll tan instead of burn), and i did not exactly go to sleep last night, but these things happen.

as a result of all this, i am exceedingly tired and will be heading to bed at this very early hour of 11:55 pm! (shock and amazement abounds.) although, let’s face it, i’m probably about to give in and curl up with a my so-called life episode. but either way, sooner or later i’ll be curled up in a king bed (i can hardly notice i’m a 20 year old sharing a bed with my younger sister!), listening to the sound of the ocean crashing on the sand. i am a happy girl!
