I thought I should put my 2 cents in but Britt beat me to it. But I would like to give a little background for thhose of you who don't know Brittany or me for that matter and our unique and spectacular relationship. We are cousins and sisters and best friends. Thats a lot for one relationship but its the case and this is how it came to be.
Brittany is 5 years younger than and but most of the time wiser and more mature. I however and the protector and the strength. Little Brittany started spending a week or more at our house in wisconsin when she was 5. She was the cutest damn thing. I had no siblings at that time and I loved having her around my own little sister for a week or 2. I always wanted a sibling. She came every summer till she was about 18 I think. In that time I like to think I taught her a lot seeing as her brother wasn't going to show her how to do her hair or put on make-up. We just had this special relationship and it only continues to grow.
We are now travel buddies traveling to AZ together since she was about 13 and hawaii and ireland and now this. Something we have been wanting to do for like 4 years. I just so happened that after graduation B had some time and since I have a cookoo ex-boss I have no job to go to and had already saved all the money when i was working so away we go.
The reason you should all enjoy this is because B and I started journaling our trips in Hawaii and we wrote in the same book and responded to each others entrees. The best ones were when we were passive aggressively being mad at each other. Like the day she didn't feed me and i got cranky. Hence "no food = bad mood" then i lost her and thought oh am i gonna be in trouble and then i was still mad until we got to the ywca and then the food kicked in and i was grand but then B was mad. I tried to cheer her up with a authentic lindsay composed song on the ukelele but when i went to take a shower she locked it in the closet. Memories I enjoy quite fondly and love to laugh about. So even though it says air grievances and don't be passive agressive thats really when you'll want to tune in and read because it is usually quite entertaining and B is just so good at writing.
We also usually had a "people of the bus" section now I believe we will have to include "people of the campsite. So wish us well and stay tuned because 2 girls who have never been camping and are both scared of wild critters in the night and one who is afraid of the dark could potentially lead to pants peeing at some point both ours and yours so maybe you'll wanna wear a pad just incase.
So in like 4 hours we depart with like a years worth of snacks fully loaded ipods and our grandpas old lisence plate for good juju. Oh and with a fire extinguisher, air horn, and pepper spray we left the shot gun at home but i like that thing i'd just wanna play with it.
Here's to some entertaining reading for you and a journey for us. It's about the journey not the destination for me with all the internal struggles I have been suffering I'm hoping this leads me to what I need to know and learn and that I have fun doing it. so here's to healing, learning, anventures and love and laughter and about 12,000 miles of quality time with my best friend!
