La Vie En Rose for 2006 September 21

I was just randomly thinking a thought trail on my way back from the gym today when I started thinking about the ferry from Corfu, and some group of backpackers who were on it from another hostel, and they were going to Athens, I thought. ATHENS. Suddenly I was struck with such a longing it was all I could do not to drag out my backpack and head for the hills (the hills of LAX). Now I am looking at flights to London for ten days in December with a whirlwind tour of phd programs in mind. I'm hopeless. =(

I finally gave in and bought MS office ($90) and now I can't wait to get it! It left Dallas today and is coming to me by the 26th. Now I'll be able to write my papers all on my laptop and make as many excel spreadsheets as I want!
