Every day...
Oct. 15th, 2002 01:26 pmSo every day things happen and I think, "Oh, I should mention that" but don't because I'm busy. So here's a brief summary... work (glorious work), kayak class (woohoo!, see either
astrophysicat or
nanne for stuff about that), weddings, road trips, etc.
So. Highlights.
Work... I've been working overtime a lot. The fun never stops. I feel very useful though. Like a cog in a really big cog-using thing.
Kayaking... I don't think I'll ever really get used to inhaling water, but at least I can flip myself upside down without too too much hesitation. What skill! Well, maybe one day it'll lead to other things, like learning to flip myself back up.
Weddings... seeing so many people. The one this weekend I saw someone who I never expected to see really. Someone who briefly lived with us at Easton. And that was cool.
littlfrogling and I spent a good part of the time going, "do you think he remembers us?" and meeting our friend's new wife was good. Special thanks here to Gill for telling me about the UK wedding. I'll write you back soon, I swear!
We kind of accidentally ended up in Philly on the way to the wedding. Oops. Yeah, well, you know, that sort of thing can happen when your directions are written incorrectly. At least
littlefrogling was able to navigate us back to the farmland of NJ where we said, "Farmhouse, barn, greenhouses, lots of cars... is that a fence that could be surrounding a pool? I think we've found it." after we follwed the directions including the infamous, "take a left when you see a white church on a corner." I was actually impressed, they've put actually street signs up near there now, making it much easier to identify how very lost you are.
Having dinner with
littlefrogling and
crowyhead in Philly. You people are fine chickies, both cute, both fun, both fantabulous human beings! Oh yeah!
Movies... I've seen several (it's about that season again, movie hopping time!) but far and away the best was 'Secretary'. I so totally enjoyed it. I'd probably even see it again. And the guy who did the music for it is fabulous too, so I had a double bonus seeing it. But it was a well done movie. Oh yes.
There's also been shopping... which I think
jennywrenn covered beautifully. She bought me the best necklace. She rocks.
And planning for the big party is in full swing. I've identified the costume I plan to wear. And honestly, it's worth coming to the party just so you can see it. I promise you that. Now I need to get down to it and start finding what I need for both decor and my costume. Oh yeah.
