Somehow or other I completely forgot about livejournal! Is anyone still out there ( Read more... )

When I was in eighth grade, my dad bought me a 900 dollar Greg Lamonde (I think--can't actually remember the exact brand or spelling of it) bicycle. It was yellow, light, and fast. I couldn't believe my dad had spent so much money on me, and on a bike! I liked to ride, but not much further than to school and back. After that much bicycling, I'd get ( Read more... )

Friday night I moved in to my new apartment! It's in Newton, which is 15-20 minutes from work by car, and probably not much more with traffic, actually. It's cute, cozy, and quiet, and also realllly musty right now, but I love it anyway. I don't have a computer right now (mine is dead and I need a new one) and I also don't have a TV.

My parents, sister, and I celebrated my sis' and my birthday Saturday night after I had flown in to Seattle. My parents had bought us tickets to go see Ain't Misbehavin' tonight at this jazz club called Jazz Alley in downtown Seattle. The club was also a fancy restaurant, so we hate dinner while watching the show. They performed on an extremely ( Read more... )

I got my bags back. Thank you, God.

I made it home just fine on Saturday, which I'm grateful for, but United Airlines lost BOTH of my bags. That's right: not one, but two of the bags I checked. After a rather confusing interaction with the Baggage Service people, I felt assured that my bags would be delivered to my house yesterday, since supposedly they were going to arrive in ( Read more... )
