Dearest Subscribers,

 My deepest apologies about the shocking dearth of posts this month.  Blame Meg.  She taught me everything I know about not posting and we all love her anyway, so let's just keep passing the love around.

Quick update:

I'm at home on Spring break with my family who are engaged in remodeling the kitchen while I stand back, watch, and coordinate meals without a stove.  It's crazy.  Good to be home, nice to be out of the dorm, but dreadfully difficult because I miss my beloved Aaron ever so much.  Both brothers are home and everyone is asking about him.  I'm sure you're curious, too.  Well, the whole story is for another time, but I can assure you that even the most critical among you would approve.  Because he is "practically perfect in every way"

Classes are hard, but not impossible.  Friends are wonderful--but some are too close and others are too far.  Family is wonderful, but occupied and thus, somewhat dull. 

Things on my mind:

-trip to paris in may to visit anya

-summer job that won't make me want to inflict bodily harm upon myself

-housing for next semester: to RA or not RA?  Live off campus? What's God's will?

-career: do I *really* want to get an MSW?  Sociology isn't intellectually stimulating...will it be emotionally fulfilling later on?

-if it's this hard to be away from Aaron for 10 days, how in the world will I make it through summer?!

I don't have a hotpot in the house and microwaved water doesn't make for good tea (you understand, don't you aunt maggie?)

But I don't mean to complain.  I'm glad I'm here.  I just wish home wasn't lonely.

Remember how I told you that I had a story?

Well, that's what I mentioned on my "other" weblog.

I can't tell you the story right now because the college network ate my history paper.

Whomp, chomp, and down the hatch.

So, it's 7am and I'm frantically reconstructing it before it's due at 5pm.

Pray.  Yesterday was long and today's not looking any kinder.

Going to a Mu Alpha date party with Aaron tonight.

Hello, little black dress!

(keep in mind that "little" is a relative term which means the garment covers from my neck past my knees--no scandalisciousness here, I'm afraid)

Sleepily yours,

 Laurel

Good morning, starshine!

It's a balmy Michigany morning and I'm wondering what the sky is like in California today.  Sunny? Are any Meglet's flying through it?

I'm getting sucked into this thing....and I can't stop fiddling with the template.

Here. Let's fix this situation by just saying no and going to class.

Happy Tuesday!

Funny, how every day is a happy day when you're in love.  Yes, that's right. In love.  I'll tell you about him sometime.  But he's likely to sneak up on me at any moment here in the library, so I must be cautious.  It's such a WONDERFUL day!
