hatteras day three?

everyone has officially arrived. some of the boys came last night because they had a sailing rigotta they had to be at. but now everyone is here.
today is a bit less windy.
which is why people aren't already out at this hour... on a windy day they would be out around 6.
yesterday i went to work. which was alot of fun! and i learned how to make sandwiches and chocolate milkshakes and work the cash register. i got offered a job on hatteras island for the summer. its something to think about. living on an island for the summer would be cool. but i would have to rent an apartment, which means i wouldn't be making as much money, which is what my summers have to be about unfortunately. especially if i spend the first two weeks in england on a study tour.

then i went out sailing for about three and a half hours. sailing as in windsurfing.

WELL anyways.
last night we had a big spaghetti dinner. the boys made 7 pounds of spaghetti, and were thoughtful enough to have bought me rice noodles, which they cooked in a cute little pot. they also made me my own special sauce because i don't eat meat. then we all had salad. there was so many people, but they insisted we all sit down together at the tables, so they ended up hauling this huge piece of plywood up from a pulley system from the third story deck (so we didn't mess up the walls carrying it up). it took all 12 guys to pull it up. they were very happy with themselves. and then we all sat in deck chairs and prayed and ate dinner. (note: Dear God, may the grass grow and the breeze blow, thank you for bringing us all here, and we pray that the breeze is knarly and none of us are carnal, bless our grub, breeze on, amen)
after dinner the guys all turned on The windsurfing movie, and played gentleman's championship leisure. which is a pretty complicated drinking game apparently.

anyways right now a bunch of them, disappointed with the amount of wind, went out to the grocery store, and when they get back we are making pancakes. i am syked! (yes mom i remembered to bring my special pancake mix)


anyways.

over and out
