Hehe, that goes with squirrels eating pizza:
:-d
so i was supposed to go home (as in ithaca to vb, hehe) wednesday night, 5:00 flight from ithaca to philly and then getting to norfolk around 9:45 (quarter of/to/till ten ;-) ), but because of the icky weather the plane from philly to ithaca that was supposed to return with me on it got majorly delayed and wasn't supposed to take off from ithaca until 8ish, getting to philly at 9ish for my connection at 9:00. of course being the day before thanksgiving the later connection (10:00) was disgustingly overbooked too, so i would have to spend the night in philly. instead i decided just to get a 6:00 flight to laguardia and then get home by 10am (instead of pm, hehe). so Ti (who accompanied me to the airport, yay), Maria, Ryan, and I trouped out to college town to get food for dinner (since the dining halls were closed for thanksgivingish), and got rice, vegetables, eggs, and strawberry cheese/shortcakes. i ended up talking to my sister during the entire walk (about 25 min), so that was good, hehe. for dinner we made the rice pilaf (with garlic added), the vegetables (broccoli, string beans, and a few mushrooms, also with garlic added), and scrambled eggs-with-clemintines (not with garlic, hehe). the eggs were a bit too funky but the others were really good. we ended up forgetting about the cheesecakes, but apparently they were good. 1 is being saved for me, or so i'm told, so that should be good. i'm back to playing piano (some... painfully, hehe), and Ti and I beat Ryan and Maria in Euchre (oh yeah... take 2, hehe), and I ended up getting about 2 hrs of sleep (after getting none the night before), and waking up at 4:30 for my taxi to the airport for my flights home.
woof.
but yeah, good stuff that was. i missed my family some, but it was fun being in ithaca for 1 extra night. i decided to have a shading of a shabbos this week. after shabbos dinner with the family i'm going over to mike's, and tomorrow we're driving down to b'nei israel (orthodox shul), and in the afternoon apparently i'm going through papers with mom. tomorrow night is ice skating. drop me a line (of some form) if you want to go, or just ask greg, since he's in charge, hehe. (scary thought, ain't it? ;-) ).
1 more week of classes, a few days of studying (skiing some?), a few exams, and then i'm back home on the 16th. less than 3 weeks. eh. schedule then: skiing the 19th-25th, and heading back to cornell the 18th. something is definitely happening new year's eve, but it's not being planned now ;-) but we'll see. (having ti come and visit maybe?) r addler's trip is right before i go back to cornell (ends on the 17th) so i may hop on that and just head back to cornell straight from New York, but we'll see. at any rate, a bientot (hopefully).
