what da fungus
I don't understand how I sleep for 4-5 hours every night, am ridiculously exhausted during the day but come time to go to sleep I can't fall asleep for the life of me.

I go through stressful situations, but don't typically realize I'm stressed until I notice my behavior aka I become a huge crybaby.
It's embarrassing to start crying in the middle of tekserve in front of the mac nerds and customers when I find out that a) my warranty is void due to a crack in the plastic and I have to pay for a new hard drive out of pocket and b) all the stuff on my old hard drive is baaasically lost forever unless I pay 600 dollars. Also, embarrassing to be crying in the middle of class and on the subway.
Whatever, I guess, considering all that is on my plate right now I think I'm handling life in stride.

I can't wait to visit DC, I was speaking to some friends from back.. home? It's not really home anymore? From DC, and it feels like I've been gone for years. I feel so out of touch and out of the loop!

I had the weekend off, spent most of the time sleeping but did manage to squeeze some time to go to the Met. Amazing! Real Egyptian Tombs! I think next time I'm going to go alone so I can take all the time I want and fully soak in the old instruments and greek statues! Phoenician artifacts! Art from the Korean Renaissance! Did I just not appreciate the museums in DC or is the Met just amazing?

Still want to go to the Botanical Gardens, MoMA, Bronx Zoo, etc.

Rain, Rain, Go Away!

When are you visiting DC?

Chris's friend (the one that's always had a boner for you) is a Mac guy. Have you spent $600 on it yet? He might be able to take a look at it and help you out if you're in the area.

I've been to both & I can tell you that I felt the same way.

I was so awestruck at the Met...it's totally amazing!! I think the Met is much bigger than let's say, The Smithsonian? I'm also thinking, maybe it's because we both grew up around DC, so it was never all that 'new' or 'different' for us?? I don't know about you but, I made many a school trips to the museums in DC :)

If you want to go to the botanical gardens, MOMA, or the zoo with us nerds, we'd be delighted.
I'll buy you a lemonade.
