Hallo :-)
It's been awhile, so here's an update!:
Nick and I went to Las Vegas for a weeklong vacation in mid-August. It was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. We actuallu spent very little time in Vegas itself. Naturally, we did the normal touristy thing, we took photos, checked out the hotels and the strip, and did a night of drinking gambling on Fremont Street (where our hotel was). We swam on the rooftop pool in the evenings where we had a clear shot of the Stratosphere all lit up. But mostly we spent our time in the desert. We climbed rocks in Red Rock Canyon, swam in Lake Mead, marveled over Hoover Dam, survived Death Valley (itw as 115 degrees!), and saw ancient Indian petroglyphs and the Perseid meteor shower at the Valley of Fire. We glimpsed an assortment of wildlife in their natural habitats like a coyote, a rattlesnake (which, mind you, was a foot away from us), oodles of lizards, and a herd of bighorn sheep. We saw many a cacti, wildflower, and Joshua tree. It was simply wonderful. I didn't realize how much I'd love the desert. I dream about it constantly now, which just makes me miss it :-) It was a great vacation. Nick and I hadn't been on a vacation together in years.
After my last class today, I fly home to go to Katie's bridal shower (Yay!)
I'll be flying to OH a lot for the rest of the year, actually- my birthday weekend for Adam and Katie's wedding, Thanksgiving, and my normal two weeks for Christmas. I can't wait!
>_<
The place where I worked closed, which sucks. I still have a job though, mind you, but it's on the other side of town. Although there are some bonuses to this: an awesome hole-in-the-wall coffee shop and suepr authentic Mexican food! But other than that, I'm not too happy about the change... time to job hunt maybe?
I'm in my last semester of school (thank god) and graduate in December or January (whenever the hell graduation is). I basically only neeed
