Now with…nothing exciting to report!
Hmmm…wish I had something interesting to tell you. You know, something besides "Hi, this is my day: study, eat, work, eat, study. Get an appallingly small amount of sleep. Repeat." You guys, I am 100% over studying right now. However, I only have three weeks until my test date, so the end is near. It’s just, I can only read about Air Force Doctrine and the Tenets of Air and Space Power so many times without wanting to stab my eyes out.
What else is new…I managed to avoid any new sun-induced mishaps after the crosswalk incident, but only because yesterday I was a bit under the weather, and as a result, spent an inordinate amount of time laying on the couch falling in and out of sleep. I am blaming this lack of energy not on the fact I only got 7 hours of sleep over the past week, but on peanut butter induced salmonella, for dramatic purposes. I tried to build a case for Mono yesterday, but it didn’t work. And let me just say, sometimes don’t you think that having Mono would be a really awesome thing? I mean, I’m sure the aching fatigue isn’t that great, but you could totally get out of anything you wanted, with Mono as an excuse.
Next weekend I’m off on another business trip, this time to Utah for a conference. It’s at Hill Air Force Base, which is outside of Salt Lake City. I am dreading this because conferences = sitting still and listening to people and we all know neither one of those are my strong points. God. Like, I’m getting twitchy about it ALREADY. The only good thing about it is…well, okay, there is actually two good things. One, I’ll have plenty of time to study. Which…hmm. That’s not really all that good, but we’ll go with it. And two, shopping.
Okay! Enough of that! I’m going outside!
Tschuss!!

I COMPLETELY agree. I just did the week-long conference thing. Eeek. Often too late, I kept finding myself with my feet twisted up under me on my chair…sitting like a little kid. Oh well. We are what we are.
Good luck. Take slip off shoes…then you can curl up a bit.

Salt Lake City has such wonderfully pretty young blonde chicks coming up to you on the street corners. It really is quite pleasant!
(OK, so what if they are trying the conversion thingy… It never worked and I got to have fun flirting like crazy with them just for fun…)
Bring a whoopy cushion and enjoy yourself.

Curses! It really sucks to think you’ll be so close but yet so far away. SLC is just a hop, skip, and a jump from Seattle, but not terribly practical. Oh well, have a good time at the conference and get some shopping done. Utah is especially good for cowboy boots and religious trinkets ;-).

Pix - If only I could, with the slip off shoes…but I’m actually very good at getting comfy in the ol’ combat boots. I just hope I’ll get a seat in the back, so nobody will look strangely at me whilst I squirm around. But yes…we are what we are. I like that.
Scott - You know, I think I’m going to try that too, when the cute blonde girls come up to me, I’ll just hit on them. What do you think will happen?
Kari - As a matter of fact, I’m going to try and make it out one of the other trips. I have three to Utah all together…it’s just not logistically feasible this time around. Stock up on the vino!

God.. you big tease! I so thought I’d missed some scheduling for next weekend. Damn! You’re so close.. that sucks! But yay for a little get-away!

Angel - I know, I totally wish I could stop by this time. But, there are still two more trips! In better weather!!
