It was brought to my attention yesterday, albeit unintentionally, that this is the first time I’ve been in the same place for a year since I was in high school. I am also told that this is normal. Doesn’t help me from feeling restless though. Maybe moving to a different apartment will cure that, or at least help.
Even before yesterday, I have been missing California something fierce. A friend from Stanford sent around the link to a 20-minute “highlight video” he made. It showed so many of the crazy things that went on during the 9 months I was there, and made me picture college as a magical place where classes are a minor thing stuck in between surfing, biking, parties, headstands in the study lounge and men in catwoman costumes.
Ah.
I can’t think of much to say today. Hmm. Let’s see.
Yesterday afternoon I made a really cool map showing footprints along an entry trajectory all the way from EI to KSC. It was pretty cool looking, and as always, I am a big fan of cool looking maps and graphs.
The dress I bought on Saturday is a size smaller than anything I’ve bought since I was like 14 years old. Obviously Talbots sizes their dresses bigger than any other store, but it still made me feel good.
My arms still ache from climbing on Monday, but today it is a good ache, a friendly ache, a “grr, I’m gonna be rock solid someday” ache. Unfortunately, I’ll still be out of town next Monday, but I’m already looking forward to the Monday after that, and more climbing.
I’ll also miss softball this week. Sad. I need to recover from last time’s dismal hitting performance.
I need to get outta dodge.
