Lately, I've been having this scary revelation that there are some people who will never go away.

After graduating high school, there were some people who I was glad I would be having minimal contact with. Most people grow up, move on and, if you're lucky, even move away. There are the dreaded few, however, who always seem to be lurking--not there as much as they use to be, but not gone either.

I use to think this type of person was just slow to move on, but as college progresses and I am now closer to graduation than my first day as a Freshman, I'm beginning to think that there are just some people who will never let you lose touch.

Frightening.

Back to the vacation:

It was really a lot of fun. We shopped, we played on the lake, we ate good food...eh...well, we played on the lake and we shopped at least.

Good food was hard to come by at lake Okaboji, which was surprising to me. The lakes are surrounded by very large, expensive summer homes and condos whose occupants, I'm sure, appreciate a good meal and have the dough to pay for it.

My proudest accomplishment is that after a grand total of 2 days out on the lake, I am now more tan than Kyle who spent a whole month in Brazil.

If I had a million dollars...
