It is 8:54 am and we planned to be en route to campus by now to sell back books. Instead John's drinking coffee and looking for puppies on petfinder.com and I'm writing in this thing, which I've had for a long while.
We have no plans to get a puppy any time soon, but we like to look.

School is over with, have I told you that? After my last final, I went to work and then left to see Michelle while she packed up her things in the apartment that I've always referred to as "Matt and Michelle's place". Soon, it will be "Matt and Megan's place" and a different Michelle will stay there. When I left, Matt knew I was so sad to see Michelle go and he said, you know you're still welcome to come over here, even though Michelle doesn't live here anymore. I nodded and told him I plan on it. Michelle is moving home, which she doesn't want to do because she doesn't trust her father and her parents still don't like to live with the fact that she's gay. On top of that, it just sucks to move home when you're 24 years old. Hopefully by next fall, she'll be living in the museum district or montrose and teaching junior high. She only needs and only wants an efficiency, so she'll get by. We plan to visit, of course, but it's different when your best friend lives at least an hour and a half away. That's a big change that I have to deal with, I know, but I never liked change and never dealt with it well. Just when everything started getting comfortable....

I'm moving home for the summer, and I both love and hate the thought of it. I can move home and go to Barton Springs and spend time with friends and family members and have decent produce in my grocery stores. I can also sell diamonds. Ick. I'm really not looking forward to that, but what am I gonna do? It pays well enough, I'm trained and I don't come home smelling like meat. It's not so bad.
I plan to take college algebra in the July summer session and would love to take an online course in something like speech (it is offered!) or sociology. Getting some school out of my way will be good and take some stress off out of trying to graduate on time.

We need to start our day. There are books to sell back, writing center jobs to apply for, and relatives from Michigan to entertain.
I hope all is well with the rest of you.
