I spent the last week at Ft. Benning, Georgia, with my younger brother, his wife and their baby who is so adorable she might be edible. It was not your typical spring break (I couldn't find a beer bong anywhere), but it was relaxing and spent surrounded by family with all of their quirks and traits that you wish you hadn't inherited but it turns out you did. I don't know that I've ever been so relaxed; I slept a ton, and when I was awake all I did was play with a baby. It was like therapy. So for a change, I find myself absolutely incapable of getting fired up about anything...and I have a to-do list that looks like the following:
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
Yep. It's blank. It's so blank, I might just have another cup of coffee and continue listening to my favorite songs over and over. I'm that kind of calm right now.
I survived last quarter (wherein I took 17 credits just for the hell of it), and this quarter I have only 12, and I have a research position that I am absolutely thrilled about! I'll keep you posted. At the end of the interview for this position, the faculty member stood up, showed me to the door, opened her arms and announced, "I'm a hugger!!" Oh geez...
Seattle continues to treat me well, although a week of 80+ temperatures in Georgia reminded me how good sunshine feels; I'm really looking forward to summer and REALLY jealous of all you fools in San Diego right now...someone please hug S and S for me, K? I hear next year's conference is in RENOOOOO! I'll start working on an abstract right now so I can be there and get married to all of you in a hotel parking lot in front of a lookalike Officer Stokes from CSI. Or maybe I'll get married to a lookalike Officer Stokes in front of y'all.
