So I was supposed to have the house all to myself. I'd made plans to study, buy some stuff, cook dinner, and have friends over to eat my food (or the pizza we'd inevitably have to buy) and watch movies, drink wine, and play Risk. (Drinking Risk? Say...have to drink every time you lose a territory? Yes...) However, my parents decided to postpone their trip, unexpectedly, due to the rain from the tropical storms that's headed our way. And now...all I feel like doing is glomming around the house. I could go be productive, but why bother?

So I'm reading more Pat Conroy (more! MORE!), stuffing my head with vocab words when I ought to be stuffing it with equations, and eating far more chocolate chip cookies than I ought. And maybe running, although I wouldn't bet on it. Yesterday I swam laps instead of running, and on a hot day that's just lovely! I think I'll do that again. Now: more reading, perhaps some letter writing, hanging with the dumb dog, and avoiding the inevitable nagging about room and life. Let's all pray for good weather, shall we? ;-)

Just for you, Brightski. :-D

Your turn. ;-)

I decided stopping at a lemonade stand was a good positive contribution to the world. Fifty cents for a glass of watery too-sweet lemonade and two ginormous smiles from the little girls running the stand (and the mother watchfully standing behind) seemed like a good trade. We need more female entrepreneurs anyhow, yes?

So I’m now 21. My mom isn’t sure how to deal with having a 21 year old child. It sounds old, but I don’t feel any older yet.

Had to go to the DMV to renew my license, so I went to the one in the city near where I’m working. It was express, which means that it took an hour and a half instead of four. I talked to the people around me and made friends, which ended up being an even better idea after I fell asleep and no one robbed me. They also made sure that I was awake when my number was called.

Who’s excited about the Olympics?! Yay! Almost here! I think poor Michael Phelps is getting built up way too much.

I’ve been too tired to blog much lately, but look forward to some loooong booooring posts from me once work ends this week!

Pictures of party on homepage.

I had a fantabulous time. Those who threw up and those who cleaned up those who threw up, probably not so much. (Again thanks go out to Mere! My savior!)

Will put more stories up later.
