Number 3 on the Lay-off List: DONE
Monday, June 15, 2009 
OK, so I have finished number 3, on my list.
I camped. It was fun. I mean I'm not sure if I can count it as "real camping" because we slept in the back of the truck, and I kind of wonder if "real" camping requires a tent. I'm no expert on that kind of thing so let me know if you have the answers.
I did roast marshmallows, I didn't shower for two days, and I totally braved the elements, soooooo I'm thinking it counted.
My weekend highlights:
1. White Water Rafting the Lochsa, and I didn't die. I highly recommend rafting the Lochsa, if you are an adrenaline junky, and would like to experience the most intense ride of your life. 
2. Flip cup. I am so good at this drinking game, seriously, its like I can't stop. I actually have to fall to the ground and be dragged off into the night before I can stop. Its like I found my calling. In a past life I must have been a frat boy. There was a part when all of the male flip cup participants got naked, and I don't remember any of that...I just remember that I was a champion, and had to sleep for 16 hours straight afterwards.
3. Camping. I am just so happy that its warm enough to sleep outside, I fucking hate winter.
4. Finishing a task on my Lay off List, nothing tastes as sweet as accomplishment!
I wish I had more to say, I rafted, I camped, I drank, I was hung over for two days and I now have dread locks...Whatever number 3 on the lay off list is totally done.
Interestingly enough, I think I figured out a way to complete task number 6 on the list. SKINNY DIPPING. Apparently I live 2 hours away from a really sweet nudist camp. Kaniksu Ranch is located in Loon Lake Washington, and besides naked camping they have a lot of activities, like the Bare Buns Fun Run, Wii Bowling tournament, and you'll never believe my good fortune: GUINESS WORLD RECORD SKINNY DIP - followed by a jeopardy challenge.
It's like Jesus wants me to be happy.
I do have a prior engagement on the day of the skinny dip, but I might be able to "swing" it. If not, maybe I'll just take a day trip to Loon Lake and take a swim and use their free Wifi. I have never gotten naked for a good wireless connection before, but I am not above it....
The real question is... have you really lived life if you haven't been to a nudist camp? I've asked myself this question and decided, I may not be complete until I experience it....
