I'm friends with my roommate on facebook , our I would probably post this there, but I've just got to say that I find my roommate's habit of leaving knives sticking straight up in the utensils canister and, now, of hanging a pair of open scissors in midair from the pot rack too be deeply unnerving. There are a lot of 5am near misses. -
Writing about one electronic forum on another
One of the fencers from my Div 1A men's foil pool just asked me to be his friend on facebook. I'm relatively certain that the only words he's ever said to me were his arguments after every touch. How thoroughly odd. -
Productive Morning
Before finishing cooking breakfast this morning I managed to both go for a run and break up with Joon Yee. I am so productive! Go me! No really!

The world has changed around me and I don't want to miss a moment of it. I want to wake up in this changed world, but I don't want to go to bed in it. I feel very silly, like a little kid. -

New Home(s)
Well. We've done it. Everything all packed. Then packed into the van. Then us packed into my car. Then the driving... We stopped for a night in Bristol VA/TN and for another night in New Orleans. And now we're in Austin, watching the Opening Ceremonies on tv in our new apartment. Tomorrow movers bring Joon Yee's stuff over. Sunday they ( Read more... ) -

I've been coaching four classes a day, six days a week all summer. Yesterday I coached 6 classes - 10 hours. Today is my last day working for FAP. Soon I'll be just as tired from packing and moving, and then from job hunting and learning new places and meeting new people, but for the moment all I can feel is relief.
