Yoda the Strange

I am taking a time-out from last minute packing to write this. I have remembered several times tonight that I needed to write this, and then promptly forgotten and therefore decided that if I didn't do something about it now, than I probably never would and that would complicate a weekend that could very well become busy. Tomorrow is the day that I move up to MSU. I'm a little nervous about it, but that's to be expected. I'm sure I'll get over it.

Actually, I know I will, because I'm not giving myself any other option. This is reality, I'm moving out and away. At least, for the time being. I feel like I'm fairly organized. This is going to be an organized and efficient move. I hope.

I finally ordered my Mac today! I'm stoked. Finally I'll have a normal sized keyboard, and screen again. Thank god!

Earlier today I was sitting in the little room off of our kitchen when mom put down food for the dogs. Our Golden Retriever knows better than to attempt to eat at the same time as our Pug because Yoda(the pug) tends to get territorial. So anyway, Yoda was the only one in the Kitchen and all of a sudden he starts growling while staring at one of the bowls. He then slowly paced over to it, and continuing to growl stared down into the bowl.

There was no point to that story, except to illustrate that my dog is strange.

Two Book Kinda Day

And so concludes another day...

I've managed to read two books, and plan to begin a third following this post. Granted each one is only three-hundred pages long... but whatever.

By about eight-thirty I was restless enough that I took Yoda on a walk through the neighborhood. That was nice, and I'm not sure why I hadn't bothered doing that earlier in the week. It was much more productive than pacing the house. Of course once we got home Coach was jealous because he didn't get to go for a walk... so now I owe our Golden Retriever a walk. Ah well.

Really though the most exciting thing about today is that it is nearly Saturday, and Saturday means going to the Blink 182/FOB/Panic At The Disco! concert. Yay!

Right, off to get in some more reading! Yes!

Just Another Day

Today has been a rather boring day. I spent the morning at work, and was largely on my own until well after one o'clock. On the one hand this was fine, but on the other it meant that by the time I was able to take my lunch break it was later than is generally usual. Eh.

Since I've been home I have been both ignored and stalked by Darcy, and barked at by Yoda after he got a good look at who had walked through the door. Perhaps the highlight thus far has been reading another installment of a Jane Austen FanFic that I've been reading for several years now. The first two stories have actually been published as one book: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/The-Darcys-the-Bingleys/Marsha-Altman/e/9781402213489/?itm=1 . I really recommend it.

The third story is going to be out in stores this August, which I think is really exciting. At any rate, she is writing the eleventh and final story in the sage and posting it on FanFiction.net at the moment. It's fantastic, and I can't wait to own the whole series. Her pen name on FanFiction is DJ Clawson if anyone is interested in looking her up.

So I read Jane Austen fanfiction while listening to Fall Out Boy. It's been a standard day.
