Home Free
I'm back in the UV, and it's crazy. So far I have:
Trudged around the U of U campus with my neon green and hot pink zebra-striped duffel bag
Enjoyed a 3-hour Food channel/VH1 marathon/nap
Eaten wheat crust pizza at Sicilia Pizza
Rewatched Slumdog Millionaire
Spent an inordinate amount of time dealing with public transportation (So much simpler in Utah)
Eaten Sunrise Spuds at Ruth's
Opened all of the cupboards, the refrigerator, and the freezer, just to see what's hoppin
Watched several episodes of "Twee and Twah" (Lu and Lo's new funny movie series)
I'm trying to catch up on all of my internet activities... since my computer stopped working I've sort of given up on this blog, but now I have access to a beautiful new mac (my mama's, not mine...) so I'll try to keep it up.
It's weird to be back. The kids seem so huge and independent--Lula was telling me the she and Lola were going to have a sleepover with the house to themselves until midnight, when Lola's parents are coming back. Cecily just put a huge coat on all by herself (she's dressing up like a teenager so that she and Maude can pretend to be "boys who are on a stage and doing rock"). It's weird that their lives have continued without me.
And yet they are all still the same lil peeps.
I think the current plan is to eat at El Salvador and then chill with the homies (Kat, Ilona, Hill'ry...) tonight. It's all somewhat overwhelming, especially with my killer cough (TB?), but I can't wait.
Missing my Barnard people already--how odd not to be able to stroll two doors down the hall and burst into Anners' room without knocking.
But the clean, warm, pressure-free home on Locust Circle is even better than when I left.

switcheroo
instead of 20th century poetry or symbolic logic, I think I will be taking a Bible as lit course from the same prof that taught my first year seminar course. I'm kind of excited about it.
