Man, this place is dead! Or at least the SGNC feels really dead. I guess I can't talk since I'm not contributing a lot these days seeing as all my attention is on school and crazy road-trip-filled weekends.
Tomorrow: Big plant biology test.
This weekend: Yet another road trip to South Carolina, only this time it's business. Flyball business, anyhow.
It was a long weekend of driving and sun! We did a roadtrip of the South Carolina coastline, hitting such gems as Myrtle Beach, Charleston and Hilton Head. Witnessed and celebrated an ex-boyfriend getting married. I am exhausted! (and I'm really hoping that the head and earache I have is not indicative of an oncoming head cold!)
I might have pictures soon. They're all on... Read More
You might not want me to sit that exam. Multi-variable calculus and complex polynomials are no problem, but statistics are not my thing; I'm a whole lot more comfortable with mathematics that has only a tangential relationship to things that actually exist.
Hmm, What new? Not much. Well, actually, Sam and I managed to make some new friends recently. And.... They live in Raleigh! Score! We met them (a nice, young couple hailing from Idaho by way of Michigan) at the Farmer's Market restaurant one Saturday. Last week we had a fun having dinner and drinks with them, and now have plans for more. Making new friends... Read More
Thanks, love! I'm doing really well with the studying and feeling pretty positive all around right now. Life is really good. Yay! We need to get together soon. And not just so we can scam some tobacco leaves from you either.
This weekend we drove down to attend SouthernBelle's birthday party in Charlotte. We've been bad and missed all the others, so we had to go this time!
I figured we should take some back roads and maybe hit some wineries on the way. So, we invited kriss and not_tom for the road trip and went wine tasting. It was fun, but Sam said none... Read More
Yes, I did find it, I didn't know whose it was!!! I will most definitely guard it with my life and bring it up next time I am in town (which I am hoping will be soon!)
Our recent vacation out to California was one of those times where experiences confirm how wonderful everything is; the weather, your friends, your marriage, your life.
And, well, this shouldn't be surprising as we went primarily to witness two good highschool friends of mine get married, and visited another couple who was celebrating their one year anniversary. Love was in the air.
It was really a lot of fun this year. You would have enjoyed it much more than the last time! Very laid back, no drama, and no (or very little) attention-whoring!!
I was thinking maybe we could get a group to go camping in Asheville later this summer....??
I have no desire at all to see that movie ... though I am a big fan of nipples.
Meh. She already (apparently) thinks I'm creepy, what would it hurt?
Seriously though, the whole situation is frustrating beyond belief. Just another reason I desperately need to find a new job.
I saw the new Harry Potter last night. It had 3-D glasses. I felt like a big geek, but I didn't care because my sister was there, so it meant she is a big geek too and I can blame it on genetics. Oh, and because I got to have amazing Peruvian food afterward. (Have you tried that purple corn drink? Where they boil it with cloves and apples and pineapple, then chill it and add lemon juice? AMAZING!!!)
Miss you!!! I hope to visit NC this fall, after I get back from India and get resettled a bit.
Thanks, buddy!
