Lizzie-I have a plan...

I have a plan.

Well, not for life, still waiting for the Peace Corps… BUT, I have decided I don’t care what I have to do, I will somehow get myself to NY for the August 22^nd weekend when Claire is there. After weighing all the possibilities: boat plus bus then cheap bus which takes basically a day to get there and a day to get back, a flight from logan which also includes a bus and a boat, driving which includes $88just to get off this rock plus gas (eek) and possibility of getting lost. I’m just gonna suck it up and fly from Martha’s Vineyard to JFK which takes 2 hours. Then there will be no boat/bus delays or anything.

So, as long as I can finagle my boss into giving me time off, (which I should be able to do) and as long as I can stay at the L'hotel Fitz or with Dodd if she has an apartment by then, I’ll buy this ticket ASAP. I would be arriving on Friday around noon so I can hang out and greet Claire when she gets in at 1PM. Then I can either fly out of JFK at 8:40AM on Sunday or on Monday, hopefully I can work out something at work so I could come back Monday, it’s the same price.

Island life is not very exciting, I’ve gone out a few times with my friend from Spain and her Spanish boyfriend. There are WAY too many people here on this island this weekend, I went dancing on Thursday and had to leave because I couldn’t move because there were so many people. So last night Sean, Kylie, another friend of ours and I avoided town and had a bbq at his house with red, white, and blue jello shots. Yes, Sean made “white” ones with unflavored jello and coconut rum.

Oh yeah, I chopped off my hair. And colored it. The new color is called Sangria, how fitting… haha. Here’s a picture, you can’t really see the color, but in the sun it’s more visible.

I hope everyone is doing well.
