i just looked at the good ole' camp lakeview website, and they have put up the new staff picture... the new staff picture that i'm not in. sad.
i was thinking about my days as a junior counselor yesterday. if i learned anything from being a junior counselor it was how to mop correctly. after rainy days, john dobrinski would have us mop all of the porches around the dining hall. i hated being on porch duty after a good rain.
anyway, i was reminded of all of that when i made the decision to clean my basement. let me describe the place to you. the old air conditioning pipes are still there and they are insulated by about a foot of foam all the way around... so in order to walk around the basement, you have to stoop under these padded pipes. i have 22 bags of shredded paper that were collected for a prank that never happened. they were basically soak through from the mysterious water that comes out of no where. the pipe that carries all of the water from the sinks in the house is broken, so the water basically spills on the floor. also, the washer isn't hooked up to any kind of drainage pipe, so all of that water from that spills on the ground, too. there is a nice hole in the floor that all the water eventually drains into. the dryer had a piece missing for awhile, so all of the lint that wasn't collected in the trap was spewed out on to the wall behind it. my dog likes to sneak down there and poop in the corners where i don't notice until the piles become the same moldy blue color as the floor.... speaking of the floor... i found mushrooms growing on it.
needless to say, my cleaning aspirations were long over due. i'm going to call my landlord and find out about a dehumidifier, but in the mean time, i have lots of mopping and washing to do. i may wear my old junior counselors t-shirts and pretend like i'm scared that karen is going to catch me doing something wrong, just to bring back some memories.
