With Rye away at camp I am feeling a bit like I’m missing a limb or something.
I know, it’s ridiculous. But the kid has such a big personality he really fills up the house with his presence and it’s a little vacuous here without him. Anyway, I hope he’s having a good time. We don’t get to talk to him until Friday when we pick him up. We can only send him emails. But he can’t send any back. I’m wondering if it would be frowned upon if I sent him some silly emails. Something to make him laugh. I’m tempted to try and stir up trouble by sending something really silly. I guess that wouldn’t be prudent. It is, after all, a Christian camp. Who know what kind of a sense of humor they have. Could be minimal. I hope it’s not like the movie ‘Jesus Camp’. Perhaps I should have investigated it a bit more before sending him. Honestly, though, it was very affordable and had paintball and a ropes course so we went with it. And I like the Christian basis. A Christian camp with a paintball basis. There you go. The best the South has to offer. I just hope it’s not over the top. Oh well. I guess we’ll see.
Anyway, here’s a clip from ‘Meatballs’ where Bill Murray pretends to be the director of the camp for rich kids across the lake from the inexpensive camp where he actually works. It’s rated R so if you are easily offended or uncomfortable with sexuality, don’t watch it.
