Made a template change . . . I don't know that I'll stick with this one - it's a little too . . . bright, or something. But we'll see if it stops losing my posts now. Of course, now I have to redo all the customization thingees. Oh well, the comment code never worked anyway.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
That's *two* posts that blogger has eaten in the past week! Not that my words are all that important or anything, but still, it's annoying. I wish that I had a LJ like everyone else.
blogblogblog . . . still in lab. It's nice to be doing labwork again, but I'd forgotten how annoying the 'sitting-and-waiting' part is. Especially on Friday afternoons. When everyone else in the building is gone. Oh well. I could be taking advantage of this excellent opportunity to do some homework, but noooo . . . :)

I don't normally have the urge to hug cars.
Especially station wagons.
But tonight I had to suppress the urge to fondle a small green station wagon with a GT parking permit, GT sticker, and fulton county license plate.
I think I'm homesick. Silly football games.

Yeah, because I look like that. All the time, just let me tell you. Especially the scanty clothing . . .
So, another week gone by, and I'm exhausted. I've been getting plenty of sleep - anywhere from 6-9 hours a night, but my eyes are bloodshot and I can barely drag myself through the day. At least I'm not the only one - seems like it's just part of the grad school experience. We were all kind of dragging through classes today. Even Mandy's hair wasn't quite as perky as usual. (Though I suppose that could've been due to all the dampness . . . it's so pretty here, all rainy and misty, especially when I don't have to go out in it. The weather's getting all crispy and fally and octoberful here. It's exciting.)
Most of my kitchen stuff's unpacked. I have a lot of dishes. It's fun finding a place for them all, though, after that month when we couldn't move into the kitchen. Finally, no more boxes! I think it irritates Matthew, though, the way I've left bubble wrap strewn two feet deep throughout the apartment. We're hoping to get mostly unpacked tomorrow. I also have to grade my first exams and prepare my genetics presentation. Blech. So much for a restful weekend. Next weekend, though, we're heading to the last weekend of the Renfair - hopefully it will be drier then. (In every sense of the word - this weekend is Oktoberfest.) And the weekend after that, we have a stressful-event-that-cannot-be-named-because-it-is-a-suprise, for which I have to clean house. And refinish the dining room table. And slipcover the couch. And lose fifty pounds.
Sigh.
I'm excited though . . . have I mentioned how lovely the view is here? Oh, that's right, I did, but blogger lost that post. Grrrrr. At any rate, we can see the capitol and the washington monument and the national cathedral. And lots and lots of trees and pretty lights. :)
Next week is the big UMD/Tech game! Whohoo! If my alumni shirt was here, I'd wear it. But it's not. I hope Hugh hasn't lost it. :( Speaking of which, Matthew and I were discussing Hugh tonight. He can't complain about his lack of play in the past year, as it is his own fault in several ways. Girls continually throw themselves at him, and he brushes them off. Silly Hugh. Silly Kevin. Silly Aaron. Boys are dumb.
Matthew's sound asleep already. I guess I should go to bed too . . .
