Alien whales. How awesome would that be? Did you know that Jupiter's moon, Europa, is covered in ice? Underneath said ice is an ocean and within that ocean is the possibility of life. Holy crap pants! ALIEN WHALES! Does that not excite anyone else?
See what summer school does to me? I take one astronomy class and then *BAM* alien marine life.
In other news, my roommate's cat is approximately the size of Texas. I swear by all that is holy that he should be named Garfield. He's already downed 2 lasagnas, a big mac, and a circle K slushie.
That is what's crackalackin' over here in T-Town. Update soon.

AZ
Well what a summer it has been so far! I am well aware that I dropped off the planet of cyberspace but life just caught up with me I guess.
Leaving NYC was interesting this time around. Usually I leave with a sense of longing, wishing I could understand and appreciate the city for what it is. This time I left without that longing. Not because I lost my love for it, but because I felt like I was leaving home. And when you leave home, you always come back. Hand to God, my friends, this time next year I will either be 1) In NYC or 2)on my way there.
The day after I got back to AZ, a dear friend of mine flew in from London. She and I have known each other since we were flailing around our dutch ballet class at the ripe old age of four. We haven't seen each other in over eleven years and it was as if not a day had flown by. Well, we were a bit taller but unfortunately both of us never lost the art of flailing.
With the lovely O by my side, I was able to travel around the great state of AZ. I've been here for eleven years and it still amazes me how beautiful my state is. Yes politically and socially we have a LONG way to go but nature wise...you can't hold a candle to us. Sedona, The Grand Canyon, Tubac, Tucson... splendor in so many forms.
O was a big hit here in the states. Every time she opened her mouth and let that British accent escape like velvet, the boys dropped like flies. I could not introduce her to ANY of my guy friends without each of them coming up to me and gushing about her. For many of them, she was the "honey from across the seas" that they never had. Personally, I just miss her making fun of my american, consumer-ish ways.
For now, I'm working, going to summer school, applying to grad school and canvassing for my close friend D. Oh, and I moved into a new place with a cat the size of Venus and a guinea pig who thinks he's a human. No big deal.
Peace, Love and Cacti,
Geni
