Well faithful (if nonexistent) readers, it has been a while since my last blog entry and you (all 3x3+4-13 of you) must be waiting on the edges of your (very empty) seats for the next (tragically boring) installment. You are? Good.
Anyways, past the sarcasm, I've been truly busy with school (we had an in class essay yesterday for Philosophy midterm and last Tuesday my group of four in speech class had to give an hour long speech for the whole class). Marianne (US Gov. teacher from last semester) and her fiancé Helmut are in Europe for almost four weeks and I'm house sitting for them. Living across town for four weeks certainly has contributed a substantial amount of busy-ness to my life. [Gosh this post is going together like pickles and ice cream. Don't know why I'm having so much difficulty making it flow... maybe it's because I'm out of practice ;P ]
Last Wednesday I had to go into the zoo for TB testing (no, it's not because I'm an animal or anything). I start working on Friday... not sure how that's going to be, working with kids instead of animals. I'm worried that I'm going to miss working with the Bird Dept. really bad and will stress out about it. I hate thinking about something a lot and having it ride me without my permission. ...if that makes any sense whatsoever.
Oh, but the point of me telling that story was so that I could say who I saw that day i was at the zoo for a whole hour for the first time in 3 or 4 months. I saw Marcus. It was a shock because he has moved to Florida with his fiancé (my used to be really good friend, Julia). Marcus and I dated for almost a year while we were working together at the zoo several years ago and we were really good friends for about a year before that. We don't keep in touch any more (for sort of obvious reasons), but the odds of us being at the zoo at the same time and running into each other are probably a million to one. Needless to say I got the shock of my life. We just kinda said "hi" and I left because I was on my way out anyway.
Blah.
Saturday night Carrie and Jordan had me over to their house. Jason was there and I brought Nick's shorts (short films, not boxers) so we could all watch them (Nick is one of my younger brothers. He's 17 and has been making short films since he was about 15). They loved the shorts and actually watched his GI Joe one twice. Afterwards Jordan went to bed and Carrie, Jason and I sat out on the driveway and talking and watching the clouds roll past. We didn't go back inside 'til about 2:30 AM. Ten I had to drive back out to Marianne's all by my self.
Andrew and Laura have been staying out there with me, but sometimes they don't come. Laura had to have her wisdom teeth out so she was sick that night, and Andrew needed his rest so he stayed home too.
Well, I have to go now to take Andrew to school and go back to Marianne's to do some studying of my own.
I'll try to keep better updates.
