i am preparing for my birthday bender, an audition for a production of andromaque, my bestie (hopefully) coming down to texas to visit, (maybe) finding a job, working on my sewing technique, and getting my new kitten's balls cut off.

I'm going to San Diego next week for Tiki Oasis. Then a cruise in Oct. to Mexico, I just won employee of the month today, that was nice. I'm seeing some concerts, but being picky as I'm not made of money. I won a new cruiser bike a couple of months ago and love it, but need to ride more. yeah the quick and dirty.

glad you're well and still working. :wink:

Sam and I are heading to the Jersey shore, where we will dine with Bon Jovi, surf with Springsteen and make hoagies with the Four Seasons.

I'll say hi to Tony and Carmella for you.

*Cannot believe Mere and Sam are snubbing Billy Joel while in Jersey.*

I'm working 12 hours days and about to start my last semeter as an undergrad (yea!). I will be going on and on about this graduation thing for months, btw (as if you didn't already know that).

Also, trying to keep the condo clean enough to be viewed at any given time - which actually isn't as hard when you're not home to dirty the place up - and looking for a house suitable for my grad party and , well, living in too.

Going to Chicago in a week with Bon. Three out of four from the hifi family will be returning to school. I ain't one of them. I want to plan a backpacking trip for this fall. Maybe two of them if I can get away with it.

EXCITING! Not the clean living part, the grad party house part. Where are you looking?

It's exciting when they show your place, but it is a weird way to live. . .

Yay for first (Bon) and last (Sunny) semesters of college!!

I'm considering taking a semester off of school. And reconsidering medicine. And reevaluating all aspects of my life and behavior.

And preparing for Katie's birthday bender.

I'm saying goodbye to middle school, and hello to high school. We'll see how that goes.

Wow. That's pretty damn great. Now you'll really be able to warp the right kind of minds. Well done sir!

Another charter in the OC. I don't think there's football, although I hear we have a pretty kickin' basketball team. I've thought I would like the older kids more, although I will miss the insanity of middle schoolers at times (maybe).

send em to me if they get knocked up, rubbs.

*worked at a gyno's for a month and today started tutoring teen mothers for taking the GED*

(Today I tutored a girl that I met in the Medicaid clinic when I was shadowing the OB/GYN. Weird coincidence? She didn't remember me so I didn't say anything. Would surely make her uncomfortable.)
