Random Notes

Most people who know me, know that I'm a little book crazy. Maybe not Read or Die level, but getting closer. I'm the type that always notices what book someone is reading, or scans shelves when I go over to someone's house (if they have them). And then there is my comfy reading/lunch spot on the fourth floor of the science library. Every time I leave, my eye is caught by two copies of a book. Nothing flashy, just a corn plant on the spine. It isn't even a book I've read, or plan to read. But I know my parents also have a copy of Crops in War and Peace: Agriculture Yearbook 1950-1951. And that makes me smile.

When I Come Alive

Travel is one of my other loves. This year has been good for it, with running off to lots of cons (and one soon for work). My next bit of free time is fall break, so lawnchair and I have been wondering what to do with ourselves.

First thought was Montreal, but plane flight was expensive. Maybe for Spring Break (because it has been years since I was out of the country).

Then I remembered the other trip I wanted to take - San Fran. One of my favorite ex-roomates lives out there (as in, downtown), and I miss her. Tickets are much cheaper. So I called, and she's free. Plan now is to fly out Wed (Oct 10), keep ourselves amused Thur and Fri, then go somewhere with her over the weekend (she left where up to us).

jasminehammer, you up for dinner?
