the robin says...

Hey look!  It's me again!  I'm pretty sure this is some sort of record: two posts in 8 days!  Wowzers.

I really don't have anything witty to say or exciting new updates (do I ever?), but I am bored and thought I would share some random thoughts.  I'm pretty sure everything I put on this blog is random anyway, but you get what you pay for, right?

Random Thought #1:

I know I mentioned this in the past post, but I am really REALLY looking forward to Fall... and maybe even Winter.  (What the!?)  I don't know what it is about this summer, but I'm ready for it to be over.  And I don't say that with any sort of hatred or malice.  It's been a good summer.  I've had some nice relaxing time off, great teaching opportunities, and a few fun adventures.  I am just so HOT all the time (yes, both figuratively and literally - it's hard being me.)  I think part of the issue comes from that fact that in order to feel productive I usually need to be in my office where it's about six bajillion degrees.  (No lie.)  We bought a fan to put in the room, but it doesn't do a lot and just makes the room noisy.  So I find myself wanting to do nothing... and then I am troubled with guilt.  Vicious cycle, indeed.

I am really excited for sweater weather... and not too horrified by the idea of Winter.  Maybe it's because this is the first time since I've had a driver's licence where I don't have to drive to work/school five - six times a week.  Maybe it's because I have exciting things ahead of me.  Maybe my friend Erika (The Queen of Winter) is finally wearing off on me.  Who knows.  But I am going to embrace this feeling and try to live up my Winter experience.  (But only after a really beautiful, cool, and LONG Fall, okay?)

Mmmmm.... 

Random Thought #2:

I bought a dehydrator... I'm so domestic.

Final Random Thought:

I could really go for some ice cream right about now.
