Hey New England? I get the whole “my prerogative” thing you’ve always got going on, but this is getting a bit ridiculous. I mean… It’s been raining for two weeks already!

Melissa needs Summer to REALLY be here, okay? Okay?? Really. Thanks. Thanks.

Either way, it is June and things have definitely slowed down on this end. I’m back to working just ONE job, as opposed to three, and I’ve got to be honest: I’m enjoying having a lazy morning here and there. I couldn’t imagine having Jasper with my Springtime schedule; I’m really glad things have calmed down enough for me to keep him, because I sure do love his furry little face.

Life’s been interesting, otherwise. I have a frustrating crush on a boy, a select few of my friends have decided to dip into the catnip themselves, and the entire prospect of my future (which is coming as soon as September, quite frankly) is utterly, exhaustingly stressful. And I’m broke. There’s always that. BUT! I just reserved a campsite at the beach for two days in August, and I’m excited about the potential for doing nothing but eating strawberries, reading a novel and sunbathing. Even if it IS just Long Island Sound, and let’s face it — that water is NOT swimmable, folks, don’t kid yourselves. But still… Sun. Sand. Strawberries. The ultimate trifecta of relaxation. …Or so I shall tell myself for the next two months.

On that note, it’s off to work.  Expect more updates here, now that things have settled down. I’ll even shoot for interesting content! ;)
