I could really get used to being on vacation. I finally feel like it's summer because I have now gone for ice cream, gone swimming in a public pool, and visited one of my favorite seaside locales. I've been sleeping in, lounging around, and the weather has been gorgeous. Of course tomorrow is supposed to rain but that's o.k. because I'm going to see a movie.

The seaside locale I referred to is a place I've been going ever since I was little. It brings back a lot of memories just being there. I used to go with my family and then for several years I went by myself but it's always fun to have company. We poked around a gift store named "Katie's" which my dad used to take a picture of me in front of every year - a tradition. And inside Katie's I was perusing the souvenir keychains with names on them. Of course there were plenty of Katies but some names were missing that you might expect and some were there you'd be surprised by. I wonder how the names are chosen for the manufacture of keychains like that. I also wonder what happens to all the extra ones that aren't purchased, especially the uncommon names. Do they have boxes full of unclaimed keychains in back? I always planned to name my future children with really unusual names but will they be traumatized by their inability to find a signature keychain? This is something I never considered.
