So I feel partty relaxed. I don’t think it is so much that the workload has relaxed as much as I’m getting a little more used to it.
This weekend I visited Nick in Ann Arbor via Megabus; though I was a little nervous about going that way, it was fantastic and easy (like I knew it would be anyway).
We went to a U of M football game (with 106,999 other people), carved two-hour pumpkins (see pictures on facebook!) and roasted seeds, walked all over, went out for fondue, had a fantastic pizza, cleaned, and watched Back to the Future. All in all, it was a very relaxing time that really helped me remember there is a world outside of Hyde Park. Woohoo.
Now I am back in the throng of work; an endless stream of reading, papers, characters, the blur of notes on a page. Tonight though I think a few of us are going to watch Volver. This is a movie that reminds me of Alice and Mike (hello Alice and Mike!) and makes me happy for the time I get to spend with them.
Still not too sure about Thanksgiving plans. Thinking about Blo-No most likely. So…anyone doing exciting? The Nick should be with me. And maybe Luna?
ok. This post is total crap. But it is a post. Back to my paper!
That was a great movie and brings back great memories of when you were visiting. Sounds like you are in the swing of things back at school. Hope we’ll see you over the Thanksgiving holiday
