Pittsburgh

...aaaaand I'm back!

Only had to go one day without a bed. Thanks heaven for the pull-out couch. Just need a desk now. Wow, it's so awesome. I can't describe it. My own room. I missed this.

mmm Jersey

Yea, I've spent most of my time at home doing absolutely nothing. With the exception of failing at preying on unsuspecting guys with my short skirt and rubik's cube because in additon to getting rejected 2 out of 3 times, I APPARENTLY have forgotten how to flirt. Thinking of going back to school a day early. I'm getting bored here. But yea, I'm getting bored.

Home!

Finally back in Jersey. Had an interesting trip out, it was very short, 3.5 days. Here is a short summary:

Frolicking around the VLA

Lightning in the Grand Canyon

Giant 2-headed dinosaurs with people in their mouths

Mistaking the moon for the city of Alburquerque and an unknown volcano in Oklahoma

Pulling an Oklahoma City

Leaving

So first off, I forgot how awesome hugs were. I really, so awesome, I miss them, got some awesome goodbye ones tonight. But yea, anyways, I'm really not looking forward to going back. Last year I was really unhappy. Like really extremely unhappy. I am so afraid that I will feel the same when I go back. This summer was so awesome in a million different ways. I feel so spoiled being out here, and I do not want to leave. When I was leaving JPL and when I was leaving the bbq today, all I wanted to do was dig my fingers into the ground and prevent anyone from making me go back. Can I stay? Please? Everyone else seems so excited for school to start, but I have this pit in my stomach that developed today and everytime I think about leaving, it gets stronger. I am excited about seeing people, but only you select few (pretty much the 3 or 4ish of you who read this). But yea. Me not want to leave.

Lesbians?

If I had a dollar for every time somebody thought that Justine and I were lesbians...

The End

So I'm coming to the end of my second Cailfornia summer. BBQ tonight and tomorrow night, then bright and early Saturday morning (6am) we depart. Hit up the Grand Canyon Saturday, the VLA (yay!!) Sunday, lots of driving Monday, then hopefully Pittsburgh Tuesday morning/early afternoon and Jersey Tuesday night. I'm leaving for Pittsburgh again (bringing Ishmael this time) then next Tuesday which means... -gasp- a whole WEEK in Jersey. Wow, been a while since that's happened. What will I do with all that time?? Apparently get my Rubik's cube, put on a short skirt, and parade around the boardwalk with Stlinkles preying on unsuspecting guys.

Lesson Learned?

I just peeled a bunch of dead skin off of my nose and now have random hot pink blotches mixed in the the freckles. Looks bizzare. Maggie really needs to learn to put on sunscreen. But will she?

Crazy Weekend

So, in the past I have boasted that there was nothing in my past that I was embarased about. As of Friday night, that fact has officially changed. -tries not to think about it-

almost over

Summer's almost over. Week from tomorrow we start the journey home. I THINK that I want to go back, still not sure yet. This is the last weekend here. Then back to the land of humidity. Yup. That's all I have to say right now. Good night, and good luck.

PS - Tu es une vache avec une poitrine velu. Et tu sentis mauvais. C'est toute.
