So... it is like a billion degrees outside right now. Fortunately, there is a lot of A/C in the lab. It actually gets to the point sometimes where I am COLD! yay!
However, this means that I never want to leave. Everyone just left for the weekend and I'm like, uh.....
The apartment search continues. I am a little :| about it because I have replied to a bunch of ads over the past week and NO ONE has gotten back to me. I PROMISE I AM A GOOD ROOMMATE PLZ LET ME HAVE YOUR EMPTY ROOM. It's frustrating because I want to move in like 3-4 weeks and I need to SEE the room first/meet people and I'll be gone Thurs-Monday next week, visiting @Manderkat. Like, how long does it take for people to reply. I am half-worried that my emails are just not making it? The emails show up in my sent box though... BAH! My friend had a lead on a possible room but it was definitely above my current budget, so that's no good.
Lab is going well. I have been in all week (except Wednesday when I overslept). Waking up before 8am is proving.... a difficult adjustment. I also managed to use the bus successfully several times!!! It's actually pretty easy. Now I just need the temperature to go down so I can walk there without wanting to DIE. (Note: I drove my car today because of the heat).
I am going to a wedding on Sunday and bought the dress yesterday. :D It's navy blue with scattered big polka dots. I love it and will potentially post pics of it after this weekend.
Yup... Also I wish I were in San Diego. Comic Con.... *weeps* I am determined to get there next year somehow. When I start getting paid again.. there will be saving. I'm kinda hoping there will be Hobbit-y things there next year since the movie will be coming on at the end of 2012 (omggg).
I hope everyone survives the heat! <3
