Nothing In Particular

February 23rd, 2010

Why can’t I just choose to be a morning person? Life would be so much easier, considering that pretty much every single responsibility I have requires me to be awake and somewhere and functioning by 8 a.m. But no… no matter how sleepy I am after dinner, I’m WIDE AWAKE by bed time. Did I mention that when left to my own devices I actually become completely nocturnal? As in I go to bed at sunrise and awake at 5 p.m. That’s my natural tendency. So you can see how things like school, work, volunteering, doctor’s appointments, etc. really throw a wrench in things. PITY ME.

But anyway, I just got back from a super lovely visit to San Diego, where I half-shirked my scholarly and professional duties in exchange for video games on a 47″ TV and countless gourmet meals. I regret nothing! But seriously, could I even ask for a better friend than this guy? I think not. He always goes all-out to make his friends and loved ones happy, so… shout-out to you Alex, and thank you again for an awesome visit! Plus I got to see my sister, but she has a real job now so she was busy a lot. I’m so proud!

Speaking of jobs… Colin got a great one! Finally, after months and months of searching and applying and emailing and calling, *this* company actually initiated contact with *him* seeking an interview! The irony is not lost on either of us. He’s really looking forward to having a reason to leave the house on a daily basis. Having nothing to do really is only fun for a couple of weeks. Or five, if it was a particularly grueling semester.

I can’t believe I’m in week 6 of the spring semester already. It’s just flying by. Only two weeks until spring break, then all hell breaks loose and I pretty much have an assignment, exam, quiz or skills check every single day until finals. So if I call any of you crying incoherently sometime in April, you know why.

Well if you’ll excuse me, I have to get down to the lab to handle some brains.
