I like Pete's weekend summary, and since I'm up with insomnia at the moment I think I'll imitate it:

Photoshop. Cheesecake.  Dr. Horrible. Lindsey's dissertation defense. Hair experiments with Yi. Bellydancing. Phallic cookies. Insomnia. Boutinniere making. Firefly (briefly). Rehearsal. Ice cream. Doppelkopf. Roommate bonding ( Sally). Insomnia. ( Read more... )

Good news #1: I've got a roommate lined up for next year!
Good news #2: The focus group part of the focus group assignment is done! It's been... a learning experience.

A'ight kids, it comes down to this. I'm in rather desperate need of a vacation, by which I mostly mean a trip somewhere. Most likely options are my aunt and uncle's farm in northern Wisconsin or visiting a cousin and friends in Missouri*, but I'm not ruling any possibilities out.

It's funny what little things can set you off. This has been an incredibly spazztastically busy week--the computer at Martinizing's still broken, Chronicles of Narnia last Sunday, I was elected next DM in the RPG group within a 24 hour period, MSU Christmas party last night, Game night tonight, RPG night and the transition to my regime tomorrow ( Read more... )

Well, I'm back. And the trip mostly went well, except for a few minor incidents. And the fact that I was apparently on edge more than usual the entire time (I didn't notice it until Marj pointed it out). And when I got home there was an email from my parents informing me that I bounced a check, which is very not cool. And seriously, I kept ( Read more... )

Well, today was a somewhat better day--Kelly and I hung out and played DDR, and then I spent the rest of the night playing video games. I stopped just now when I realized that freakin' Final Fantasy VIII was leading up to another nervous breakdown ( Read more... )

Well, the good news is that I have more money than I initially thought I did ( Read more... )
