During that insane apocalyptic thunderstorm last night? You go, dude! I woke up and thought there was another earthquake going on.

Lucky you. No storm here in NYC last night, but at 10pm I was sent to the Eckerd to buy garbage bags and then made to take out the papers and the trash (or I don't get no spendin' cash). I lugged several bags of beer cans and tv dinner boxes down to the curb in my boxers and slippers.

It's official. I have become my father.

Woo! Nice one, moonbird! Hope you stay in Happy Camp for a good long while.

Was this with the pop star, moonbird?

Can I sit down and toast some marshmallows with you in happy camp? I'm right there with you (after such a long dry spell, too). I love camp!

I am envious, you lucky bastard. Congrats!

Moonbird - glad you're enjoying camp.

Back here at home, Mom is chain-smoking again and dialing her psychic for hours.

Dad is on another "business trip", which means he comes home with stained collars and a new cologne, and I get another stupid gift shop tee-shirt.

Sis says Hi, but wants to know if you know another dealer?

I don't know what that means, but my Sony Playstation control lost another button and it's going to be a lame sumer. Take care, your little brother, Moonbud.

YAY Moonbird! Sounds roMANtic!!

Sweetie! Awesome!
