the "last time" to get really sick?

once again, i am defending my dislike for "the lasts". since wednesday, i've heard it many times, gotten suckered into gatherings i would otherwise be uninterested in attending (ironic, because the silly bunny-ranch party was the now infamous one that you and i talked about "getting really wasted" at months ago!), stayed out long past the bedtime of my body and soul, and have woken up sounding worse and worse each morning. alas, just one more night of this!

but why am i writing to tell you such insignificant and seemingly whiny thoughts of mine? because josue, i'm realizing that you've done something to me, that we have done something to each other. i sense that my standards for enjoyment have evolved, yet again, or perhaps returned to be a bit less oriented toward adventuring and being social and dare i say more wholesome than my dear friends here who are graduating...i guess i do understand how different it is for all of them who are leaving middlebury in the next few days, but i just wish we could think of better things to do together, like go cross country skiing or walk around the trails on moosalamoo!

(2 days later, Sunday morning) ahhhhhhhh, now i understand! i made it until 3 am last night!! i woke up tired, but i dont think it was from too much drinking -- just dancing all night long with everyone. really different music, more nyc thompson davis and andy rossmeissl style than what im used to, but still very fun. i think once every few months i can pull a night off like that - like the whole chinese buffet deal. speaking of chinese food, did you ever go before leaving for mexico?

(switching to 20th century now)

thankyou for the correspondence from mexico, i received yesterdays letters to day! it was good of you to think of me and to take time out of your adventures to write. how wonderful and different it sounds there! and while part of me wishes this could be something we were doing together, time will come for that, and the time for that is perhaps not just yet. island life...do you think we should be looking at other islands for the fall? do you know if you could get credit for linnea through college of the atlantic, if you were to do it? you'll hear so much about it in the four weeks you are with those two girls...wait, you did NOT tell me there would be girls on the trip.

i had all 5 adler brothers here last night for a a few hours, and "damn" is about all i can say about that. it was so telling, so rediculous. and needless to say, the house is a mess and julia moves in today/tomorrow...so i need to use the bit of energy i have right now to clean some. i love and miss you and hope i can hear more about the course and the people and maybe even see pictures soon?

all of my love, josue.
i'm missing your touch and your laugh and your company - but at least you arent smelling my farts.

love,
em
