So, suprisingly enough, the past several days have simply flown by. This has been mainly due to the fact that I haven't been home since Friday, between the traditional (read: obligatory) trip to visit the grandparents and helping my dad at the nursery. I actually enjoyed seeing my grandparents- one from each side, each complete with accompanying ( Read more... )

Well, here it is, just about an hour until that whole New Years thing, and yet again, I'm sitting at home with the family. Not that I'm complaining, mind you, it just would be nice if there was someone around that I could go celebrate with (translation: I wish I was getting drunk right about now). Instead, though, I'm going to post my list of ( Read more... )

So, here I am at coming up on two weeks at home, and the boredom has started to set in.... Actually, not really boredom so much as dissatisfaction- I just feel like I'm sitting here doing nothing when I could be having a so much better time somewhere else, or at least be doing something productive, even if that productivity is just in terms of ( Read more... )

So, yeah, merry christmas and all that stuff. I think this has been the most laid-back christmas ever for my family- which is saying a lot, really. I actually slept until 8:15- which, compared to the 6am wakeups my sister used to loved, was glorious- and then we didn't actually get to that whole present thing until almost 9. That, in combination ( Read more... )

Yeah, so I'm a few days behind everybody else who did this thing, but I'm going to post it nonetheless ( Read more... )

Just a couple random notes, to give you a hint of what goes on here in Truckee ( Read more... )

Yeah, it's been a while, but the last couple weeks of school will do that to you..... I survivd though and am now safely ensconced (such a great word, especially to say out loud) in my good old home. The last couple weeks were brutal, particularly since I was so incredibly burned out that nothing was interesting to me, which therefore made ( Read more... )

yes, I'm going to be ridiculously boring and not say anything interesting about the past couple weeks- which did include a glorious trip home (never thought I'd say that...) and other such frivolities- and am instead going to post this quiz that everyone else has put up.

So, about the only thing that's different about this entry is that I'm writing it in the McIntyre computer lab rather than the Howarth one, simply because last week, it was noticed by one of the CSO's (full-time staff type people) that I was down there. I was informed that I should not use it, as I was "using my position to gain access to ( Read more... )

Well, yup, here I am again, with nothing to do but update my lj. And get paid ridiculous amounts of money to do it. Having finished the week from hell (actually, it was kind of like two weeks of hell crammed into one, there was so much hell) I think I deserve that kind of bonus. I just wish it didn't involve staying up until 8 am. Ces't la vie ( Read more... )
