and the olympics are here
It's been a really busy month for me; I've in fact avoided writing in my LJ because there's just too many thoughts swirling about in my head lately. But that's why it was a smart thing to plan a few mini vacations.
I spent the past week at the_tim_world's house, which was a much-needed rest and enjoyment period. We visited the city for half the time I was there, and her lovely friend _yiu accompanied and treated us to food throughout each day. The main attraction was the Museum of Science and Industry as I hadn't been there since I was little. I honestly didn't remember anything about it! Besides that Amanda caught a cold, I had a wonderful time (her adorable cat even kept me company on the off days).
Sadly, Kristen's sister's wedding was called off last week, to the disappointment of everyone except maybe the ex-fiance. The save-the-dates were shared, dresses delivered and reception deposit put down as well as my photography priced and planned, but I suppose it's better now rather than later to find out the groom-to-be has changed his mind. Kristen and I also decided on a whim to go to Walt Disney World at the start of next month since it's going to be pretty cheap! I might be risking it a little, but I have park hopper tickets that'd be going to waste in June otherwise. I'm very anxious at the moment, because it's exactly two weeks today from the trip!
Unfortunately, my house still doesn't have high-speed internet. We could never find the jack necessary to connect us up, but that's because we believe we don't have one! We're looking into Clear or Comcast, so possibly there's some hope for us. ;) I hope everyone had a good Valentine's Day, and Happy Presidents' Day as well!
