Is the summer really almost over?

I looked at the calendar today and it really sunk in that I only have two more weeks before school starts again. It made me want to cry a little. Sure, I'll be fine once I get back, but I feel like the summer flew by so fast I hardly HAD one. Jon pointed out that it went fast, but to consider how much I/we'd done...so here's what I did on my summer vacation.

  • Went to Dominick's a few times
  • Saw "Daywatch"
  • Combined dinner for my mom's birthday, Father's day and husband and wife's anniversary
  • Went and cooked dinner with Jon for his family on Father's Day
  • Went to Trivia at Conor's on Monday nights
  • Roger's birthday party
  • Ben and Jessica's wedding
  • Cooked a big dinner for my mom and dad with Jon
  • Greg's birthday party
  • Saw Wolfmother and the Hard Lessons at The State Theater
  • Went to Italy for two weeks
  • Went to the Art Fair
  • Hung out with Elana
  • Went to the Detroit Zoo
  • Went to Warped Tour
  • Zagelj's birthday party
  • Written lots of reviews and did a number of interviews (including one with Sum 41)
  • Went to a four-day AP class at Oakland U
  • Kelly and Martin's going away party
  • The Forecast/Hard Lessons/Motion City Soundtrack show at St. Andrew's
  • Helped throw Jon and Wife a big birthday bash
  • Recovered from said birthday bash (yes, it gets a bullet point all its own)

And still to come in the next three weeks?

  • Kelly Jean's play tonight in Ferndale
  • Jon's official birthday dinner
  • Watching Fina this weekend
  • Possibly going to visit Jon's grandmother
  • Reviews/features
  • Trying to get my shit together for the start of school
  • Reading as much as possible so I don't look like a fool in the reading contest (Harry Potter is the way to go...easy fun reads and lotsa pages)
  • The teachers first week back at school (meetings, meetings and more meetings)
  • Projekt Revolution tour
  • Silverstein/Comeback Kid show at the State
  • Rufus Wainwright at The Michigan
  • More Dominick's with Kelly, Peter and Jon

You know, looking at it in print helps me realize how much I did this summer. Guess that's why it went so fast! I still wish it wasn't practically over though...

More on the luau, but not till tomorrow:)
