here i sit in the “computer room” in charlotte. it’s funny. i feel completely normal being home. mom and i went on a walk this afternoon and got caught in a downpour. dad had to come pick us up; we were cowering under an overhang outside a building at queens college. mom and david and i had dinner at showmar’s. all is normal, all is calm. i am trying not to think about homework.
i took the redeye flight. left san francisco at 12:50 a.m., arrived in minneapolis at 6:15, left again at 7:05, and arrived in charlotte at 10:24. which was only 7:30 california time. ewwww, time zones screw me up. i did manage to sleep for about 3 hours on the sfo-msp leg, and was fortunate enough to land in an empty row so that i could lay down across three seats. landed in minneapolis, found a bathroom, brushed my teeth, looked in the mirror and realized that i looked absolutely horrible. baggy eyes and everything. ugh. i wasn’t so lucky with the seats on the msp-clt leg and didn’t get any more sleep.
i got home, fed my growling stomach, bummed around, thought about doing homework, decided against it, and finally crashed for another 3 hours. mom woke me up at 4:45, fearful that if i didn’t get up, i’d never be able to sleep tonight. heh. never fear mom. i’m exhausted.
i got to talk to both cayce and leila tonight. leila had seen a coke commercial with counting crows, and wanted to share. cayce needed to tell me the wedding plans. she’s picking me up bright and early tomorrow and we’re heading to boone. we’ll come back to charlotte on saturday, then it’s back to stanford for me on sunday.
sarah’s no-name team jumped up by 6 points today on the heels of jim thome’s two home runs…and a few bad pitching performances by other people’s players. back into first place, right where i like to be.
my eyes are getting droopy.
