Well, I'm finally picking up internet at Zelda's again... she and her roommies have been pirating one of their neighbor's wireless, and it went out for a day or two, but as Zelda says, "you get what you pay for". In this case, slightly more than you pay for I suppose ( Read more... )

Well, girls... you all get an interim update, since I won't be sending my crazy long email until I leave London. So far, it is wonderful but EXPENSIVE. The dollar is worthless, and everything costs (except the musems, so I plan to visit more of them!). Yesterday, Zelda and I went on a walking tour of the city to visit Beatles landmarks. We saw ( Read more... )

Well, ladies, the long version is in the email I'm sending everyone, but here's the additional commentary: I miss Merry and Pippin more than I ever imagined possible, I am riddled with guilt about leaving my parents behind, because there is a remote possibility that this is the beginning of the end (of my residence in the States).

Did I run around naked?" Well, this used to happen to me when I was making money teaching and I was addicted to Old Navy. Anyway, so today I was reading some of ( Read more... )

Today I went CLIMBING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I finally went to Upper Limits, and it was great. It's actually not an outrageously spectacular gym, as all the hype would have you believe, but it has a lot of routes and the silos are cool. And I got to CLIMB!!!!!! which is what matters. :-) I went with Patrick, and it was very fun he was a bit ( Read more... )

So, today i was thinking about what to write in my lj tonight... and I realized that, how strange, I will write entry upon entry in this thing, despite YEARS of not being able to keep a journal in a normal book-like thing. Even though I have an almost obsessive love of books. What's up with that? Why am I willing to share the details of my life ( Read more... )
