During my second visit, I ran into Sean, whom I haven't seen in almost a month, so I got to catch up with him. Seems he'll be co-oping in Texas next semester, and as a senior, has just now decided that he's in the wrong major. Yeah, I'm thinking 4 years of chemical engineering would do that to just about anyone, but I would hate to be him right now. It's so weird that I ran into him, cause I was just thinking about him this past weekend, as my mom and I passed the magic shop downtown in Cincy, where he has worked for about as long as I've known him. Anyway, I am happy to report that he no longer gives me spaghetti legs. Sorry, but absence doesn't really make my heart grow fonder - it just makes my eyes wander.
I love when the weather is cold and rainy like this, but only on days when I don't have anything to do. I think I'll spend this evening in my delightful flannel pj pants and an old sweatshirt and curl up with some hot chocolate and a good book. I've been really lax in my book-reading lately, mainly because I've read all the ones I have. Yesterday on the levee I went to Barnes and Noble so I could get some more. Someone at Curves recommended to me over the summer that I read "Beach Music" by Pat Conroy, so this is my new endeavor. I'm only on chapter 8 so far, but it is wonderful. The writing style is very artistic, which I absolutely love. People who can express themselves in metaphors and illusions just astound me.
Maybe tomorrow before I leave, I'll actually check the weather. I forgot to bring any sort of jacket or umbrella this morning and so I had to walk around in the rain, which I don't really mind, except that it turns my hair, which I work so hard at getting straight, into this wavy, curly, frizzy nightmare. Attractive.
