Tonight, a busy night lies ahead of me. Busy, but not difficult. Rice is steaming right now and grocery shopping is inevitable. Laundry will probably be attempted. I have a vocabulary chart to fill out that requires practicing using some of the online Russian dictionaries that allow you to look up various forms of a particular word and that may ( Read more... )

"...And whilst I lay there contented in thine arms, it was unbeknownst to us that someone on the other side of the walls was being beaten to death.

It's been more than two weeks since I was in Albuquerque. It's also been maybe two months that I've been single. I haven't had too much time to reflect on any of those with much schooling to jump back into and the changing of the seasons has started added on to my already taxed system. As of now, I'm fending off a cold and am taking it easy for the ( Read more... )

Just a quick note: I'm going to be in ABQ this weekend until Nov. 1. I'll be in T or C visiting my parents until Friday so if anyone wants to see me in town while I'm there, hit me up.
