You're lucky you're reading this

Went camping this weekend with a bunch of friends to the one guy's cabin. Had a great time. We're very lucky that we were up watching a movie until 1:30ish, or else we may have died in our sleep.

Yes, you read that right.

Perhaps I'm exagerating; who knows what would have happened had we not caught the fire in time. Somehow, the fire place's tube that ran to the chimney cracked and started a fire in the walls. Scorched many poor lady bugs. Anyway, the guys went into full gear, and all the gals were proud of their men. They had to tear a hole in the wall and douse it with water.

There was so much smoke. My hair still smells and I shampooed it twice AND added tons of good smelling gel to it. My pillow was so smokey that when I went to sleep it made my eyes sting.

After that, the weekend wasn't too bad. Had some fun.

UPDATE on Erica... My parents and Andrew's parents took turns watching her this weekend. ANd she developed a nasty cough. Which she lovingly has passed on to me; she had started with it Friday night and I'm just starting today. No fever though.

Tomorrow we're supposed to go to the Baltimore Aquarium! Yeah for that!!! I just hope she's feeling up to it. I've been so excited; we've been planning it for awhile now. Erica will love seeing the huge sharks and other animals. I love sharks. Hopefully, I won't cry when I'm there. You'll have to read a post that I wrote a LONG while ago to understand what I mean by that.

Will update later.
