jonesing

Mom says: Okay, I give up. Just what is "jonesing"? I'm assuming it is some word I know spelled in a very creative way, but I can't figure it out. In context, after camping and family reunion, I won't be "jonesing" for another get together for awhile. Did anyone else figure it out.

Hi Brian - welcome aboard. Camping at the beach sounds good, especially if Larry & I do it from a motel room and spend the day at he camp.

It is still usually really nice weather at the beach later in Sept or even early October. The rafting sounds fun, too, but not as many kids could participate. I like kids.

Joanne, my sister, gets in on Wednesday for a visit. Other sister, Nancy, comes in a few days later.

It also originated during the 60's and was first used to talk about drug addiction.

Oh, well, the 60's. That explains it. We all know very few people were actually fully conscious during the 60's.
