Hello, Friends.

Hello, Friends.

I realize it's been a while since my last update. It's surprising how busy you can become without a job! Over the past week or so I've been hanging out, doing things, a lot of not exciting-ness. I've been reading a lot. It's actually absorbed my life. My friend Laura introduced me to the Sookie Stackhouse novels. There are 9 total, each about 300 pages. Just long enough that you can read it all in a day. So that's what I've been doing to the detriment of other things. I even got an email from Dave saying my emails were impersonal. Sorry boo, i've just been reading! It's better than watching tv, right? (The thing that's annoyed me about the series is the name: Sookie. What!? I feel like the author chose the name because of it's oddity. The other main character's name is Bill. So plain-old-Bill and severely-weird-Sookie. Ugh.)

Finally, Laura has run out of books to lend me. So after ordering the remaining books off Amazon, I have time to devote to life.

I've been going to the gym most mornings. Except last friday when it was POURING rain and it took me 30 min to get to the train station - only about 1/3 to base. Then I gave up and turned back.

I've been working on Hamlet! Which has been fun! I'm writing some information for my mom's theater company Their production of Hamlet opens July 16.

I leave for vacation in Australia tomorrow! Laura and I will be there for 9 days. We've got some winery tours lines up, and even a chocolate factory tour! Yum. I'd been hoping to go to Ayer's Rock, but it's about the distance from Washington, DC to Alaska. Therefore tickets were $700 to get there and back! Nothankyou!

So now I must use the next 10 hours to:
1) Clean my whole house so that when I come home I won't be stressed.
2) Pack. For Winter. It's like 100degrees outside and I can't comprehend packing sweaters.
3) Finish some analysis for Hamlet.
