cjsmith and I don't have any plans for Thanksgiving and are potentially looking for something to do. Is anyone having an "orphan" Thanksgiving or interested in getting together to play games or something? CJ has to work two short shifts that day in Sunnyvale, so we're very limited in how far we can travel.

I just saw the results from the honor roll for last semester. I got the top score in both classes. That makes four in a row. I'm a lot less confident in this semester's results. We'll see...

I haven't had time to post much recently because I've been so busy with homework. CJ and I leave in a few minutes to drive (yuck) to Bakersfield for the Bakersfield Fiesta, where we're the sole callers in the challenge hall. Then we come back for one day, and then off to Japan ( Read more... )

My photos are now being scanned.
