Welcome Summer.

Andrea and I, when I had pink-ish hair.

I have just moved into my summer place.  Austin is sunny, hot, and beautiful.  My room will soon have an Andrea living in it as well.  Matresses and palettes on the floor, a ceiling fan, and a single chair. $275 a month, all bills paid, not bad at all.  I am exhausted from all of this moving, but at ease.  WOOHOO!!!

Did I mention that I saw Radiohead play in Houston this past Saturday.  It was wonderful!

weary.

Allison, readying herself.

Again, I did not rest last night, and I am now a bit weary.  Also, I am a bit contemplative.  Oh, you know, pondering the ambiguity of language and time and the existence of God and the origin of the universe and shit.  And shit.

Dustin, happy to be at the beach.

Today I was notified that I would be the recipient of a $1,000 Religious Studies scholarship. Horaaaayy.  Also, I currently have an "A" in Government, which means I do not have to take the final! Horaaaaaay. Plus, I will soon no longer reside in Jester. Horaaaaaay.

I have lots of research paper things to do, eeek, and a BIO exam to study for (and no matter what I do I will have a "C" in that class... not much motivation there).  But, I will be done with this semester by Monday at 9am.

Yesterday evening we rode our bikes home from Kirby Lane in the rain.  When you wear glasses the little droplets build up on the lens and it makes it hard to see. I have so much research/ studying to do.  It is unreal.  I also have to move soon.  I don't like the act of moving.

courtesy.

This is the beautiful Hallie; she works at CVS.

Well, unfortunately, tonight went as expected.  Well, mostly. 

I'm nearly positive I knew before hand what he would say, but I had to hear it from him-- I hate it when other people speak for me so I had to give him the same courtesy.  I told him very simply that I fancied him and had no idea why or to what extent, but just that I did.  That was probably one of the harder things I've ever done, even though it was so simple.  I am really very proud of myself.

So, to put it plainly, he did not feel similarly.  But, he was very kind to me, as he usually is.  Le sigh.  I am just really disappointed, but I will live and he will live and we will be good friends and this, whatever it is/was, will fade into the history of Me 

and that will be that. 

While I do love all of this excitement, I think I may lay low for a bit.  Move back into the realm of auto-piloting.  It will not be so bad.  I could use the rest.
