joyce

so we just got back from putting Rat on his plane.

we ended up at the Ethiopian place just off Broadway for dinner. it was tasty. i'd never had Ethiopian before. the fact that i wasn't going to get a fork didn't really register until they put the food in front of us, but it was good.

and now i'm a tired joyce... it was a wonderful week, but a long one. we were curled up after dinner and i kept falling asleep. :) bedtime will be soon.

it should be mandatory that people going to football games take the frickin bus. :)

this morning, there was breakfast at the Kirkland Pancake House. i got chocolate chip pancakes, which were wonderful and i'm never getting again - way the hell too much sugar. my body couldn't decide whether to crash or go sky high.

there was stitching and bitching this afternoon, which was much fun. i seem to be on my way to conquering knitting, on the third attempt.

we have a Jillie, and soon will be heading out to dinner at Fridays. :)

there was Friday's. the boys sat at the end of the table and talked DND. the girls sat at the other end and talked weddings, relationships, school, life, and stuff. it was rather amusing. :) and then Dan and Ginger and I came home and there was chatting - gossip, school stories, finances, stuff. i *heart* my friends.

i should be in bed. i'm starting my paper for my American Studies class instead (badly titled: "Whiteness in America: Its Causes and Effects". that lead to far too many jokes about lack of sun this week. yea, that's not what they meant by the course title, but someone could have thought that one out a bit more, eh?) if i'm going to be doing homework, i should be doing anthro, but i am not awake enough for that.

and for those who have been curious about the buzzed hair (like my sister :]), here's a picture. this is, what, three weeks grown out? picture courtesy of the wonderful Rat.
