Oh boy. I guess my lazy summer is over! The bug of urgency has just bit me in the butt, because I realized I am moving to Michigan and starting grad school in TWO WEEKS! Ahhhhh! A month seems so much shorter when you're halfway through it! O.O
This week is going to be taken up by seeing old friends. Coryn, Dana, and Sarah tomorrow for coffee, old high school friends. Jake for bowling and a pint of Guinness on Tuesday, another old high school friend, but I haven't seen him in three years! Then Wednesday I'm probably driving down to Philly to visit my most bestest, Michelle, who has already moved there for grad school - I want to see her, her new apartment, and her new kitten before we are separated by the miles!
I also need to get my Michigan plans settled. See, one of my college friends is getting married on July 3 at my college in Pennsylvania. I want to go, but I start at Michigan on July 6. So it looks like what's going to happen is I'll drive 4 hours July 2, stay with a friend, go to the wedding, stay the night again, then drive ~8 hours on July 4 (!) to arrive at my uncle's. I'll have Sunday July 5 to catch my breath, then I'll be launched straight into the lab on Monday July 6. Eep! So for all of this to happen, I need to find a person to stay with in Lancaster, call my friend getting married and tell her I'm coming (the RSVP deadline was two days ago, oops :(), call my uncle and let him know when I'm arriving, and contact my professor and program coordinator to see when and where I should go on July 6. AHHHH! I hate making phone calls on the best of days, geez. I also need to call my new landlord to find out exactly the format of our address (unit number, mostly) so I can order checks, because apparently I am becoming a grownup. Holy crap.
I am stuck on step 1 of the planning, because my friend Matt hasn't called me back and I need to know if I have a friend to stay with in Lancaster, la la la life is crazy.
I've been writing this post for about 2 hours so I'm just gonna stop! And read a book. Yes. Bye!
