Today was a pretty good day.

Highlights include: talking to my grandmother (it was her birthday), Mom and one of my sisters, Dad, and my uncle; I even had to try to troubleshoot my uncles computer over the phone. Other than that, came home ate and watched the Sisko Show. It’s the little things that make it all worthwhile.

I talked to my other sister for a while last night. She graduated from the University of Maryland this past December and decided to join the Peace Corps. This threw most of the family for a loop. Me? I thought that it was pretty damned cool; you don’t hear about someone doing that too often these days. And, she’ll actually get to use skills from her major – International Relations with a concentration in Russian. She FINALLY found out where she will be going: Ukraine. She’s leaving on 13 Sept, which pretty much guarantees that I won’t see her before she leaves, but I’ll talk with her PLENTY between now and then.

Ukraine. Who knew?!

Tomorrow is Monday for the rest of the world. For me it’s Saturday. Three more days in the work week and then I’m off again on Friday.

I really should be working on that new picture or, even better, trying to get one of the stories that I have been (not) working on into Ye Olde Word Processor. I may work on the pic for a while tonight; that would be a “good” thing. Of course, it IS the hair that I have to work on… and that prospect doesn’t exactly thrill me.

I’d better get to it…

Peace.
