Trippin'

Well, I got back from my first cruise a few days ago. I had a great time! My friend and I went jetskiing in the Bahamas, sung along with an old Irish guy at the piano, and I drank enough to come home with a new martini set. All in all, a fantastic trip!

Now that I'm back, I'm already on to other things. I have one more day of my summer class, and since I didn't do so hot on the last test, I'm going to spend a big chunk of the day writing a paper (however, it's on the origin of my name, so that's actually pretty cool!)

In animal news, my two boys are not nearly so boyish anymore. They went to the vet on Friday...

Also, Michael seems to have found a relative. A little grey kitty, 6 weeks old. His dad is taking care of it for the moment, until it Michael takes it to his daughter in NJ on Friday.

Finally, I am taking my first solo expedition driving in NY. I'm only going around in Queens, but driving here is really, really different than at home, so I'm a little nervous. And there's parallel parking to deal with (again, much different than in driver's ed, where you park between two orange cones!) Anyway, the lure of being able to go to Target, Staples and the grocery store with a place to actually PUT the things I've bought was just too much to resist. So, wish me luck!
