Traverse City Lovin'

I love "Up North". We just booked another vacation for next weekend, Labor Day weekend, in Traverse City. We are really hoping to be able to move north someday. We may even take one more trip up north before winter hits. We will have to see how the finances hold up. We have always loved the scenery and all the lakes and it is hilly, not mostly flat like it is here. There is also the whole cherry thing. lol Which Matt may hate, but I love. Cherry Republic is a great store and they have wine and cider now too. It is too cool. We are hoping to explore a little more of the area on this trip too. We went to the Old Mission Peninsula last time and I am hoping to go to the Leelanau Peninsula this time.

Dexter is Cool

Life is boring again. I have zero plans for the rest of the month and I start school again on the 1st. I was so busy with homework and having fun for the last 6 weeks or so, I feel antsy with nothing coming up. Season 3 of Dexter came out today. I was going to start watching it tonight, but I had some season finales on tonight, so I might start tomorrow. Dexter is such a great show. It's so twisted it is perfect for me. :D

I had Matt dust off our bicycles the other day and we went for a short bike ride last night to get me some ice cream. My first in like 10 years or more. Ever since I got a car, I've driven every where. It was fun to ride again. I think I will have to ride my bike more often.

Also, I sick of my job again. The monotony of it all is really getting to me. Same things day in and day out. I'll get over it. It will help when one of my co-workers is on vacation next week and I get to do his job as well as my job. Still, sick of it.

Life is a Crazy Rollercoaster

So my current class has so much homework, I haven't had much time for alot of other things, particularly this last weekend. I procrastinated my 15 page research paper and all the extras that go with it until Saturday. I currently have 10 pages and the whole thing final draft is due this Wednesday. I may turn it in a little short. I am sooooo freakin sick of homework. Only two classes left.

Thought I'd say, best summer weather on memory. There have only been a few really hot days and I am hoping it doesn't get into the 90's at all this year. That would make my whole summer.

I am super excited about Julie & Julia coming out this weekend, and going to the Dragon Room and watching others eat sushi, since I can't do it. It's a texture thing. Not looking forward to dinner at our place on Sunday, feeling lazy and overwhelmed, but I suppose it's pretty much the only time I see Matt's dad and Beth, Matt's dad's new wife. I have absolutely zero idea what to fix.

I had an interesting conversation with some people about a thing that I am not going to go into, so as not to jinx what might be a great thing. More details after September 14. That's all you get. :)
