Hello, again!

I’m back!

In the time I’ve been gone:

• I took a train from Alexandria, VA to Salt Lake City, UT.
• I then got a refund for the return trip and booked a flight home instead.
• I learned that Amtrak is stuck in 1980 since they not only have no Wi-fi on their trains, some of them don’t even have OUTLETS.
• I learned what FMLA leave is.
• I spent some time as a visitor in a hospital.
• I learned why all nurses are woefully underpaid no matter what their salary; their jobs are not something most of us have the patience for, nor want to do.
• Virginia Tech has their first 0-2 start since 1995.
• I went to a football game.
• We learned how to hook up our computer to our tv, now I can play Farmville on a 42 inch screen!
• Alaina and I FINALLY had our second training session. It was hard.
• I’ve learned a ton about assisted living.
• I’ve also learned a ton about memory disorders.
• I watched the VMA’s and was disappointed in the current state of music.
• I’ve eaten some sort of fast food for dinner for at least 12 of the last 14 days.
• I started the fall semester of school.
• I learned that Alloy.com has the worst speed of shipping in the world. I just want my one off white sweater that no one else has!
• I dyed my hair brown.
• I learned that I am allergic to hair dye.
• I will never dye my hair brown again.
• I realized that I’m actually probably allergic to my shampoo too.
• I ordered vegan shampoo, making me feel like I’m supposed to start growing dreads. ;-)
• I watched a lot of football.
• I fell in love with waist-cinching belts.
• I did abysmally in my NFL pick them week 1.
• The weather patterns changed and now it feels like Fall.
• I added a ton of new shows to my Hulu subscription list.
• I became reannoyed that the CW and CBS do not post their shows on Hulu.

What have you been up to?
