So yeah...

"Fool for lesser things." It's true, I am one. The fool, that is, not the lesser thing. I'm a fool for baking cookies. That started because I like eating cookies. I'm more a fool for lemon meringue pie. A good night's sleep or a good book have me at their mercy. There are lots of little things for me to be a fool for, and maybe some things aren't quite so little. Finishing my sophomore year at college was a bit more than little thing. Keeping my scholarship was certainly a fair sized thing! A good conversation could be a little thing or a big thing, but I like it either way.

So, once again, I find myself spending the summer at Case Western Reserve (Our name changed once again; first it was Case Western Reserve University, then just Case, and now back up to Case Western Reserve... I hope the name changing trend doesn't keep up!). I'm working in the same cosmology lab as last summer. Though now I've got a greater workload and greater responsibility; we down two post-docs and two grad students, plus I've got greater experience and knowledge now to draw from.

My housing situation is better than last summer. I'm in a suite with four others: Saagar, a friend from college, and three guys I didn't know previously but are friendly and good-natured. We've even gotten some four-player card games going already.

Saying that I spend a fair amount of time on the computer talking to Andrea and Laurel is nothing new, and now Meghan's making a surprise appearance from my past and giving me something else to think about.

But anyway, since this is my first post in quite a long time, I think I'll keep it short.

Harry Potter on July 21; I've got my preorder in, have you got yours?
