House season 1 (all of it), Die harder, Die hard with a vengeance, Live free or Die hard, Pride and Prejudice…I can’t even remember all the stuff I watched this past weekend. I was sick of it about 3 movies and the entire season of House in, but had to keep going because I was taking my dreads out and it was the only form of entertainment that allowed me to use both my hands for that. Yes. I took my dreads out. I decided I’d rather look like a crazy cavewoman/lion cross than blend it with the ‘great unwashed’ on the overland trucks safari-ing across the continent. It took two whole days, more sodas than I care to admit, but only 2 ibuprofen. Really dark and fuzzy before and a-little-bit-better after pictures below.

Friday afternoon was LISAP director and Church of Scotland missionary Andy Gaston’s farewell party. Sarah was an add-on. We met in the brand new dining hall, had a director of ceremonies, started an hour and a half late, had 5 speeches limited to 10 minutes each, gave presents, danced, clapped, cut cake, ate cake, drank cocopina (it’s in my top five sodas along with Stoney, Dr. Pepper, Cherry plum, and fanta passion), and took pictures. We finished a half hour before I predicted. We were in the newspaper. It was great.

My creative juices have been numbed by too many hours of staring at a computer screen and my eyes hurt so forgive me. This is a short post. And I can't figure out why it wants to be different from all the others. Boo.
