Life et. al.

Tomorrow I sign the loan papers and get my new car. The insurance binder has just arrived, an appointment has been made, rides to drop off the Corolla with T and to the credit union have been arranged, all systems are go. Now I just have to wait until tomorrow afternoon. Easier said than done.

C and I are going up to LA this weekend. For my birthday, she got tickets to Wicked. I won't bother describing how excited I am; I loved the novel, I've heard great things about the musical, and it gives me a chance to explore a bit of a new city. The only thing that would make the trip better would be a Sandra Oh sighting. A girl can dream.

And, to finish on a random note: one of the fun things about science is getting to see words like coxsackie on a regular basis. Hee!

I got all excited when I saw you were coming to L.A. this weekend and forgot that I'm leaving L.A. for the weekend. I'm missing out on seeing Wicked with Kathleen and her coven as they bought the tickets about a year ago and had no idea I'd be here.

Oh bummer! That would've been great. Ah well, next time then.

And I'm glad to know science hasn't distracted you from taking joy in the little things. :P

It's a very engrossing book. I picked it up in an airport on the east coast and had nearly finished it by the time we landed in San Diego. Here is the listing (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0060987103/qid=1118948085/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/103-5940623-8536601) on Amazon.

The nifty layout is courtesy of the new Styles that LJ just released. This one is called Tranquility II. Flexible Squares is another popular new style.

Whee, decorating!
