Oh, you thought this would be a normal entry?

-Had so much fun this weekend with my friends from college! I've been such a giant ball of stress lately, it was nice to unwind for a bit. It's funny how seeing people from a really happy time in your life makes you even happier, not just because they're great people to begin with but also because of all the shared memories and foolishness that we experienced together. : ) My sister is looking at colleges this year, and I'm trying very hard to be impartial but I can't help but push Valpo a little. I can't imagine a better experience, and now, almost ten years later, I'm still close to the friends I made there.

-Read a cute book this weekend, Have Glass Slippers, Will Travel by Lisa Cach. The deification of Oprah was a little weird, but I can see how the main character needed someone or something to look up to. But it was a fun Cinderella-type story with a twist on the traditional telling.

-As my reward for sitting at the open house last weekend, my husband gave me the first season of House on DVD. Yea!!! Because USA runs re-runs on Friday nights, I've seen some of them. In fact, I just saw the one where Cameron decides to leave. What the heck happened to the whole Cameron/House unrequited love thing? It's been almost invisible in the episodes I've seen of the current season. Of course, some of that is because the much-hated (according to TWOP) former love, Stacy, was in town for awhile this season. Yeah, I didn't much like her either, despite her name. : ) As I've mentioned before I'm kind of sucker for the "forbidden love" angle, which exists far more with Cameron and House than with Stacy and House.

So I'll be watching the remaining season one episodes on DVD, which means I won't have to wait until Friday!

-Check out this funny little entry about Veronica Mars's Veronica and Logan relationship.

-Also, I've been listening to my new songs that I bought last week and I really, really like the Tegan and Sara one, Where did the good go?

Have to run now. I'm off to look at Best Buy for computers. The one I bought a couple summers ago is doing just fine, but, as I may have mentioned here before, I refuse to connect it to the virus-ridden internet because I hate worrying about my book stuff getting infected/destroyed. Without internet access and a computer at work after 5/31 (just 16 more working days to go *deep breath*), I need to get something cheap that I will allow to be connected to the internet.


Yes, I am weird. Which part of that is news to anyone here? : )
