Never here

I love my place, but I'm never here...at least I'm never here when my roomie's here. Monday was the first time we've ever had dinner together. Our schedules don't seem to have much overlap. She's up early & sleeps early....and I'm up....late....and get up....late. :)

But I've been unusually busy these last few weeks, so hopefully things are calming down. I've submitted some stuff for my culminating project, so I'm eagerly awaiting feedback from my adviser. But I'm also scared to find out how badly off the mark my attempt was. In the meantime, I should be continuing on with it, but I've been unmotivated this week. I should be catching up on my other class (which I've neglected for a week), but...there's nothing actually due. hehe In fact, today was a super nice and relaxing day where I did practically no work all day. I went to play with my niece, went grocery shopping with my sis, worked out (and listened to part of a lecture), came back & made dinner which I enjoyed while watching CSI on DVD with my roomie, washed dishes, looked through some ads (Safeway, Lucky, etc.), talked on the phone with Bob, updated some expenses on my spreadsheet and now, typed up a blog. It was a wonderfully low-key day. It was so refreshing and, I think, just what I needed. *whew*

Oh and the latest thing I've discovered about being grown up is what a hassle eating is and having to figure out what to eat for lunch and dinner each day. Ugh! It's been a pain (but still, a welcome one). I'm also going to have to keep better track of my groceries because I had to throw out some stuff that went bad AND when I go shopping, I forget what I've got and end up getting stuff I don't really need! So yeah...no more grocery shopping for me for a while...but stocking the pantry does take a bit of effort at first. The other thing about food is that I don't really have a good gauge on how much I actually eat, so I end up getting a lot more than I need and on top of that...I don't really snack much (or maybe I just don't have snacks I really like yet?)...so I don't think I'll be able to buy much snacks cuz they'll go bad or I'll get sick of it before I finish them. Or else Kittoe (Bob's place) will be seeing a lot more of my half-eaten stuff. :)
