Update

I've had the flat to myself these last two weeks. It's been quiet. It's been lonely. But I can't really say that it hasn't been interesting...

For Sale
The landlords have decided to sell the flat. There was a little drama in the beginning because they had listed the wrong dates for our lease and I panicked that I was going to be homeless for an extra month, but that was corrected and now we've had quite a bit of traffic through the place. We've had landlords and surveyors, they even had an Open House on Saturday. Everything seems to be happening so quickly. I'm sure it will slow down soon, the landlord just seems anxious to get things started. I am just happy that I can stick to my original plan and that I don't have to worry about a place to live for the month of July...

Firefly
I watched Serenity last weekend. One of the girls at work is into Buffy/Angel and has the Firefly series on DVD, so I have spent this weekend glued to the series. How did I miss this show when it was on a couple of years back??? I remember seeing one episode, but what about the rest? Was it on tv Tuesday nights, is that why I missed it - trivia? Anyway, watch the film (if you haven't already) and check out the series. Interesting and very creative.

A Saturday of Firsts
Well, maybe not 'firsts,' but 'in a long time' just doesn't have the same ring. I went into London for the first time in months. There was something I wanted to pick up and I wanted to be out of the flat for the Open House. It felt so good to be out and about again. I ended up just wandering the streets, eventually making my way to Oxford Street and window-shopped until the stores closed at 8. There is just such an energy that cities have - I've missed it.

Crushes are fun
That's all I am going to say about this one... For now, at least.

Countdowns
6 days until Laura arrives!! 12 days until the end of term!! 15 days until I leave to meet Kristin in Rome!! 144 days until my birthday!! And, 156 days until I come home!!

On that note... Night all... I am finally feeling tired enough to go to bed.
