absoluTE devastatioN w/ smiling undertoNes.

hie!!!!

right now i am supposed to be in the caribbean with the family i nanny for.  i had been prepping for this trip for what feels like decades. i bought everything i needed for 6 days in the sun.  spf 100, a sun hat, multiple rashguards with spf50, and lots of chapstick. now i have a Nevis-bound suitcase packed to the brim with no where to go! HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?

a few weeks ago i had agonizing pain in my right year. obviously i am one for the dramatics, but this is not an exaggeration. it was brutal. turns out i had the nastiest of ear infections. (am i in 3rd grade?) even after weeks of antibiotics, my ear wasn't healed! although i'm not in any pain now, it's still super clogged up. i saw an ENT and asked if i'd be OK to fly to which she replied, "absolutely not!!" turns out i've lost 20 percent of hearing in that ear AND flying could put me in the ER with a ruptured ear drum & more hearing loss.  what the f. i'm on steroids now which is really funny, hope they help. no caribbean vacation for me :(

so the woman who bore me is coming to get me this weekend and take me to my homestead where i hope to be showered with love and presents this holiday season.  mostly presents.  i'll be there for 10ish days which is the longest time i've spent in rhode island since summer break while at acting school.  geez, what am i to do?  OH YEAH I'VE ALREADY MADE A LIST:

-mani pedis with younger sis bethie and best friend/practically sister kristen
-hang out a lot with kristen and her baby mackenna.  like an actual baby she gave birth to. she's the cutest and i plan on teaching her everything she needs to know right now. like how to look around, eat, cry, poop, roll.
-rehearsals for top secret gift i'm preparing for mom. i can't talk details because we all know my mom is one of the only people who reads this.
-iggys doughboys so i can gain 10 more pounds and then complain to my mom and bf about it
-warwick mall so i can walk around and pretend i'm still in middle school. maybe buy a CD single.
-walk my dog with dad

ok so that's it sofar but i assure you, i'll be doing A LOT more!  i'm going to party my brains out aka on demand a lot of movies.

ok i'll write more soon i'm going to take a shower for 50 minutes.

love always,
your girl C
