oh yes, i'm feeling very excited. i knew good things were on their way! actually, they're still on their way; i'll know alot more on tuesday when my credit check comes back...

it probably has something to do with my watching ferris beuller's day off and the breakfast club back to back last night. those movies have a way of making me think about people and places and possibilities, and getting little warm fuzzies in general.

i found myself in quite a mood today, so good that after breakfast and kicking it with stephen and tetsu, i decided to get lost driving home. my intent was to drive from mill valley to novato without getting on 101, but instead found a beautful forested windy moutain roadway that begins at the highschool in m.v. and dead ends into the college of marin, where i'll be starting school (biology, biology lab, astronomy) tomorrow. my office is on the deadend's crossroad as well, so come september 15th, i might have a new (and very lovely) route to work.

i spoke to larkin up until a few minutes ago, and i found out all about her time at oxford, her time in kansas city, and her leather pants and we hatched some plans for the upcoming holiday season (i'd really like to spend thanksgiving in montreal again, but dallas'll do if i can't) and beyond (she's thinking of stanford for grad school, and if that happens, john will be out too).

we'll get the crew out here yet, because no matter how good this place is to me, i can't help but miss those people (so badly sometimes).

link: the powers of ten, (with associated text about each level - though a bit choppy in the middle) always helps me put things in perspective.
