There's nothing like summer coming to a close to help one realize that way more stuff needs to be accomplished than could ever be done. I find that I have started a couple of projects, and I really want them done...however if they aren't finished before school starts, it will be awhile. We have done well on some accounts, such as hanging pictures ( Read more... )

done with my grad school classes this summer! I just printed out my last papers to be turned in tomorrow. This brings me great joy because for about 2 weeks I have been fairly pressured for time and being able to get stuff done.

It's kinda good that not too many people were out of power because we were able to buy a lantern and some dry ice at meijer and there weren't masses of people to fight over it with. But it definately made ( Read more... )

So I find myself entirely amused by hummingbirds. Is that odd? Maybe it's just a fascination because I had never really seen them growing up, and I don't remember them ever being at a zoo or anything, so the idea that they live around my house is amusing ( Read more... )

Just back from an awesome weekend in Chicago! Katherine, Erika and I road-tripped it down to visit Steph for the weekend, and returned thoroughly exhausted, but smiling nonetheless (sounds just like good sex ( Read more... )

And hooray for summer vacation!! It's such a beautiful day and I amso happy not to be at work! I ate breakfast ouside listening to birds and watching squirrels run around...did I mention breakfast was at 10:30? Not 6:00! Amazing ( Read more... )
