Sweet zombie Jesus, how did I get so much stuffMy mom's driving up tonight to pack some of the larger less-used furniture items into the van. This will a) make sure that the remaining stuff will fit into the combination of Grandpa's truck + my car and b) make sure that the piano isn't bouncing around in the back of Grandpa's truck for four-and-a- ( Read more... )

Tomorrow we leave Florida for Ohio, and I don't wanna.

I never want to, really, and it's not just the thought of eighteen hours in a van. I just feel like this is a place where I belong, where I could honestly stay forever, if I just had the $375,000 necessary to buy the condo. ;)

Monday and Tuesday we had a Sheilah! One of Lisa's best friends from ( Read more... )

O hai, I can has Florida.

I can also has unsecured wi-fi connection!

The drive down wasn't too horrible, mainly because we stopped at the bottom end of Georgia on the first day instead of trying to make it all the way down to the beach in one day.

I only managed to listen to one disc of The Silmarillion on the way, because I kept wanting to make ( Read more... )

So, I went to New Jersey this weekend.

My sister has an internship in Delaware, and we were missing the crap out of her, so we stayed with my aunt and uncle in NJ and brought her up to visit, too. We went to a county fair! There were lambs! On leashes! And then we went and hung out at the University of Delaware and geeked around in a used-book store ( Read more... )

So...New Jersey was lovely. The 25-hour round-trip was less so, but the part in between, that was great. We got to spend time with my aunt and uncle and their two adorable and fantastically spoiled dogs. We visited the University of Delaware, because my sister has a SWEET-ASS internship there over the summer (or sweet ass-internship, if you are an ( Read more... )

Hi, guys, I'm back.

And look! I'm famous on the Interwebs! *preens*

I love how the picture makes me look about three feet tall and my sisters like Amazons. ;) All joking aside, though, I'm way freaking proud of that article. When we got home from Florida at 6:15 in the morning, the first thing I saw was the stack of papers my grandparents had bought ( Read more... )

Er, Harry Potter spoilers below.

Okay, we're leaving for Florida in less than twelve hours. I'll be back a week from Sunday, and most likely I won't be online again until then.

I will leave you with the last of my pre-Deathly Hallows emergency Harry Potter fic dump.

So we finally figured out a vacation date. Mom got us a condo in Cocoa Beach for a week--farther down the beach, so we're farther from Ron Jon's, but we're much closer to Jack Baker's, so it evens out. I'd be absolutely psyched, except.

We leave on July 20th. Of all the days in the whole damn summer. That means that at midnight on July 21, we will ( Read more... )

I have returned.

Probably none of you noticed I was gone anyway, but that's okay. ;) I don't think I actually explicitly mentioned on here that I was going to Florida last week, but...um...I went to Florida last week. Right after Hurricane Dennis and right before the shuttle launch. Go figure. I'll update on the actual contents of vacation at some ( Read more... )
