Changing
I have a lot of things to think about. I'm worrying about a lot of things too. Unfortunately, I can't really make any decisions because I'm waiting. It feels as though I've been waiting a long time.

Flying
I can't believe my first week back from vacation is ending so quickly. Apparently, time flies even when you aren't having any fun.
Vacation was nice. It had a dismal start in Miami with the crappy weather, but after that, it was smooth sailing, aside from the excessive rocking. I dont' remember the last cruise I went on being so rocky, but I don't get seasick anyways. After Miami, the weather turned so perfect, the water and sky looked fake - they were that blue.
I climbed a waterfall and swam in the ocean. I didn't think I'd have enough guts, but I surprisingly made it through..
Somebody at work asked me where my tan was and I can't believe I had to argue with him about its presence.

Images in wonderment... wonderment.... wonderment
Things I have learned on my cruise:
1. The only thing to see in Jamaica is Dunn's River Falls. After that, get back on the boat.
2. Sometimes it's better to spend a few extra bucks and take an excursion than get swindled by the natives.
3. Images in wonderment are images of nightmarish horror.
4. It's okay to order 3 appetizers, 2 entrees, and 2 desserts.
5. Even though it's vacation, wakeup is usually earlier than you would get up for work normally.
6. If your nose sunburns and starts to peel, don't fuss with it or your nose will become a very unflattering shade of red.
7. If there is a dark smudge on your digital camera LCD screen, don't assume that it's just a smudge on the screen. Clean the lens. I learned that lesson a little too late. I'll just pretend that smudge that appears in the light colored pictures is a ghost or something.
8. 830 children on the cruise = 830 hooligans on the cruise
9. Craps is fun.
10. It will be hard to adjust to meals that do not entail five courses.
More to follow when I'm recovered from my vacation.

7 days
No, I haven't gotten a phone call from some creepy girl telling me when I'm going to drop dead.
I'm going on vacation next Sunday!
I bought another bag. I really shouldn't have. But I saw it and I kept walking by it at Macy's. I'm that kind of shopper. I can walk through a whole department three times over, but the first thing that grabs me all the way at the beginning is what I wind up buying. I kept saying to myself, "It'll be great for the airport and can carry all of our paperwork (being that I'll be responsible for all of Josh's things because well.... anyone who knows Josh will understand why it's better I carry his important documents). This is so classy and practical. I can see myself carrying this at law school!"
Rationalizing, I know. At least it was on sale.

On a roll, or any bread for that matter
This weekend's menu consisted of:
Sauteed chicken with shallot-balsamic sauce
Garlic smashed potatoes
Pain perdu (French baguette - French toast style)
Apple spice cake
Sourdough panzanella with grilled flank steak
I was bored, so I cooked.
I'll try the apple spice cake with chocolate chips next weekend when I'm bored again.
