We really really do need to make plans. Grant and I are planning to come up for at least one football game in September, though we haven't decided which one yet. Maybe we could come by to see you all then? I'll definitely be in touch. Do you have the same cell number?

Good luck with psyching yourself up for school. I'm trying to do the same, but I must say this is an odd occupation we have. The change can be good each semester, but it is also so dizzying and discombobulating (spelling?). I guess it beats monotony.

Right now, when I wake up in the early morning, I have a hard time drifting back to sleep, what with thoughts of school debt, buying a house (and the associated costs), thinking about how I have yet to fully plan for my classes, and re-acquainting myself with the whole student-identity thing in addition to the standard anxieties and fears that go with the territory of being human and neurotic. I can't wait for that good old routine to kick in about three weeks from now.

I can't wait to see your new place. You and I need to talk soon. :)
