Spirals

Wohoo! Thank you Seth for commenting! I have neglected my blog for a bit partly because I have been busy but also because i felt like no one was reading it either... so why bother? But none of that... I'm back. The past few weeks have been pretty eventful. I just found an apartment in Uptown (32nd and Hennepin) for $800/month + utilities and we get to keep our neko-chan! (for those of you who are not familiar with me/japanese -- neko = kitty :o) i'm very excited about that... still have to get her spayed though... eeks... we're bad. Jitla and I also have to figure out how we're going to paint the place and move in since I can't take off any work and there's no elevator... I was thinking of maybe bribing some of my friends to help me move in exchange for alcohol/cooking/whatever their hearts desire that i can give... well, within reason of course...

Mary got back from Peru on Sunday and last night Kyra, Mary, Ben, and Ann and I all went to the Green Mill and got some yummy drinks and half-priced appetizers. It's fun seeing the gang all back together. Damnit natalia, get back here!!! Funny how things turn out... the circle completes itself and then does another revolution... no, no circles... spirals. I like spirals better because it's a little different every time but is essentially (in essence?) the same. (Did I mention I'm a bit sleep deprived?)

Let's see... what else? Oh! I'm going back to DC for a brief trip -- Aug. 20-23 and I'm very excited to see family/friends/ and my fuzzy sweet cuddly wonderful basset hound!!! I hope this trip to the beach with my girls works out... stupid needing cars for everything... Ok, well I'm gonna go read some harry potter now... (I finally caved in and just went ahead and bought the book insteading of waiting forever to borrow it) So far, so good though!
