yes

Philadelphia is smoke free! I’m going to Corning this weekend. I’m planning on knitting / crocheting a ton while I’m there, and of course I won’t get done what I want to get done. Just like on every break. I think I’ll be taking my uncle to see Little Miss Sunshine. I’ve heard good things. […]

gaelic storm

The Gaelic Storm concert last night was a lot of fun. It was only about half full, as opposed to when it sold out last time. I guess because it was a Thursday instead of a Friday? And last time was the end of March too so maybe people were still in a St. Patty’s […]

mandolin

Camping this weekend was lot of fun. It stopped raining there Saturday after lunch and I stayed until Monday so we had a good bit of sun. Laura got a fiddle while we were there. It was a great deal for $100 including the case. She used to play violin in school before they cut […]

end of summer

The term’s almost over. I have a final and a presentation tomorrow, and a final next Thursday, then I’m done.

grace hopper

I will be going to the Grace Hopper conference in San Diego in October. There are 9 of us plus an adviser and we have full funding. Free trip!

G. Love

Went to see G. Love and Special Sauce in Ortley Beach on Friday. It was a really great show. Afterwards we met G. Love and Jimi Jazz. Jimi was in love with Julia (asked her to have his babies) so he came with us to eat tacos (where he forgot his wallet and we had […]

sewing

I am going to teach two friends to use their sewing machines. And it got me thinking about what costume I want to make for Halloween this year. Because I will be having a costume party. Tribal Style Belly Dancer or Saloon Girl? Most of the costumes I like are can-can related or flapper related. […]

yay Dell

My laptop’s warranty ran out 3 days ago. My laptop shut itself off for no reason 3 times so far today. Dell times the self-destruction perfectly.

birthday coming soon

I’m trying to decide what to do for my birthday next week. Wednesday night seems to be karaoke or quizo night at the bars I like though. I’d rather just go somewhere to hang out and maybe dance. Suggestions? I’m also probably going to have a party next Friday now because my cousin will be […]

wonderful neighborhood

I just got back and parked next to my building in time to catch one guy peeing on it and another guy puking on it. Then they asked me for a lighter. Now that’s classy.
