This past Monday, the 22nd of Feburuary, was Bradley Nowell's birthday (the late, great lead singer of Sublime). I chose to celebrate this holiday in the best way I knew how, smoke a ton of herb. And that's what I did, I woke up with a packed bowl in my hand and that's how I fell asleep too. I'm a good student though, I went to class and did my work, I just did it all stoned. It was a very relaxing, peaceful day. All day my room was full of marijuana smoke and Sublime. Perfect. I think that's what some people need, just a day to be high, un-wind, and listen to amazing music.
Spring break is coming up for me, March 5-14. Spring break means Colorado. I'm not ready though, far from it. I have a huge "to do" list but nothing on it is done yet. I'm a procrastinator. Things will get done... they'll just get done at the last second. My roommate asked me this morning if I was still excited to go (because I haven't been talking about it lately), of course I am. I'm just excited on the inside now. The initial feeling of "Oh my god I'm finally going to Colorado!!!" has warn off and been replaced by "I'm chilling... this is going to be a cool ass vacation." I guess that's a better feeling than the first one because when I get that way I tend to get a little *too* excited.
I have this habit of checking the weather in the states where I have people that I care about. For example, every morning when I wake up I check the weather in Vermont (which is where the family is), Colorado (because that's where I'm going and where Lucas is), Virginia (cause that's where I am), and this week I'm checking the weather in Georgia because most of my family is on vacation there at the moment. Every year my grandmother takes my sis, mom, and a shit load of cousins and aunts and uncles on some big vacation. This year they're going to Atlanta, Georgia. This year I'm not with them because I have to go to class. I feel grown up because I'm in college but I feel left out at the same time... like nothing's going to be the same anymore. Besides the big vacations we also get together for Christmas and birthday parties. Everyone attends. Because I'm the oldest, people don't think that I want to go anymore. So when I do show up at a birthday party people are a little surprised and thank me for coming. I almost wish it was different... because I do want to go and see my family, I don't want them to think that I don't want to be there. Just a thought. So this week I'm checking the weather in Georgia, just to see how they're all doing.
Love Morgan
