Rainy days

The plans (or lack thereof, really) completely fell through for David's birthday celebration on Saturday. I spent a good portion of the night upset and in tears. Moral of that story is, as much as making plans might suck, they do come in handy when in a relatively unfamiliar city.

As if the frustrations of that situation weren't enough, the rain came in huge amounts on Sunday and Monday. My "new" rain boots somehow got slices in them, so my feet still got a little wet and even my sweet paisley umbrella had troubles keeping me dry. I was also amazed at how dark the main halls of Hart are when the sun isn't shining through the enormous windows. It just made for another dreary start to my week.

I was once again forced to do homework at work on Monday afternoon. However, I was a bit more interested in this weeks task at hand. We are currently looking into DC's issue regarding "taxation without representation"...their lack of a real presence in Congress. It's quite a controversial issue. For the first time in the history of class on Monday night (including last semester's classes with Jane), I didn't leave class in a horrible mood.

AND, to top it all off...this week of The Hills was full of excitement as well. So, for now, things are looking up.
