I turned down a lunch invitation today, which is so not my style. I just need a day to not make small talk after my extensive socializing of the long weekend

"The library!? What do you do there? Like, the summer reading program?" I get that too. But it's the LIBRARY! I can walk to mine and find hours of entertainment.
You could always come back to your old Denton stomping grounds and I'll show the two things that have changed since you left.
The major thing that's changed is my legal drinking age-itude. At least, that's all I've seen when I've gone back... Well, that and all the new stuff built over by the walmart.

I often request books from the public library. I go online to see if the library system has them, and if they aren't at my branch, I'll have them deliver them to my branch. People are amazed by this. I also go to the public library to check internet if I'm not at school (I don't have it at home). I say public library to differentiate it from the university library, which I also use frequently but which doesn't surprise people by providing services. Adventures: Have you been to the Orange Show or the Art Car Museum? They are both pretty cool. The Menil museums are pretty cool, too. None of them are particularly extreme or adventurous, but they're pretty fun. I'm thinking about going to the Orange Show sometime next week if you want to come with me. If you're looking for a real adventure, you should figure out a good bike route to downtown from my apartment. I've been trying to get up the nerve to do it, but I am too scared. (And it's too hot.)

I'm thinking Tuesday next week (the 15th). It's open 9 am-1 pm on weekdays in the summer, and I need to be at school to have office hours anyway in the afternoon, so maybe we could go around 10 to miss the morning traffic. You could come to my place and then we (including Jon) could drive there together. I'm not positive yet since I have my major exam on Monday, and if I fail I don't know what I'm supposed to do (study 24-7? cry 24-7? take a week off to contemplate my life?), but I will call you on Monday to confirm.

Sorry I didn't call you back about the museum. I was visiting my parents, and my phone doesn't work there. Anyway--I don't think I'm doing anything special this week, so just let me know if you're still interested in going.
