argh

I have four papers due next week, I did two presentations yesterday, and I am tired just thinking about all of it.

Went to Houston for Memorial weekend to see my little brother graduate from high school. He is off to Texas Women's University (yes, they take men too) to study occupational therapy. There were terrible thunderstorms on Monday, so all flights were delayed, and we didn't get home until Tuesday morning at 2 am. Ahh, life. It was so much fun getting five hours of sleep and then getting up to give those presentations. From all accounts it all went well; I don't really remember. :)

My family is moving to Moscow June 1. My step-father agreed to go on a four-year posting. The one hitch it that the ONE international school in Moscow may be too full to make my little sister, so if she doesn't get in, my mom and sis will stay in Houston for the school year. That would suck, so we are hoping a spot opens up soon.

Two more weeks of school... and then hopefully an internship and two summer school courses. Taking four classes this quarter has been a ... challenge... I've learned how to make Sangria, and have been making it by the pitcher.....
