I Hate Kids, #709

Posted on the 15 June 2013 by Juliezaz1 @juliezaz1

Hello blogging world!!! I’ve missed you all, and it is so good to be back in civilization!!! Being away at summer camp with 25 kids was an incredible experience, and I have to say that all of these years later, I still love camp as much as I used to.

Camp is zany and crazy and dirty and loud and full of spirit. I am recovering at a friend’s house with no voice, but after a two hour nap and an awesome hot shower, I have make up on and flat ironed hair and am beginning to feel like myself again.

I say that I am returning to my old self, but the fact is, I really got to share my true self with these kids. They saw me in a camp environment, which is like my home away from home. How amazing that we had this incredible time together, and I miss them all already.

Camp is completely different today in my 40′s than it was in my 20′s. My body is wreaking havoc from it, but I am filled with the energy that can only come from a week at camp!

One funny moment at camp this week was when I was chatting with the resident “S’more-ologist.” When he discovered that I have a song of the day blog, he humorously suggested that I blog about a song called, “I Hate Kids” by The Adolescents. A devilish grin spread across his face with the suggestion, so here I am….spreading his evil camp humor. Ba-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!!! Click HERE to hear the song that will hopefully help you all feel the silliness of camp. I can’t wait for next year, because I can honestly say I would do this again in a heartbeat!
