big news all around…ok, well, for two people. karen has decided to finish up her m.phil. in england and then go back to georgia tech for her ph.d., so she will be back in the country by the end of the year. and i’ll get to see her when i visit people in atlanta! that’s nice. and carter got a job yesterday! it’s a company in atlanta that does software for pda’s (at least i think that’s an accurate statement), and he starts as soon as he can transition from his current job at tech.
hooray for both.
it is really foggy today, to the point of being eerie. i just went in to get coffee, and it’s even foggier now than it was when i drove in. isn’t that opposite of what is supposed to happen? isn’t it supposed to burn off? i mean, it’s been gray for days on end. there was even an article in the chronicle this morning about it: “it’s almost as if someone took the pacific northwest and dropped it on top of houston, sans the towering pines and ocean vistas.” yuck. it would be bearable if we did somehow get the towering pines and ocean vistas, but (begin sarcasm) somehow i don’t see that happening.
la la la. i’m going to atlanta in two weeks for a few days, so i’m looking forward to that. it is always nice to have a trip on the calendar, as it gives me something to be excited about. carter and i realized last night that now he won’t be free on friday, when we had planned to hang out, but i’m sure i’ll find something to do. i’ll make katie and kent skip class and entertain me. 😉
