new family photo

hmmm....

preemptive measures

Next Saturday, Brett and I will be in Belize. Of course, I'll spend hours basking in the sun on the warm sand. I'll be missing class and research - it might (I'm just guessing) look like I was on vacation if I come back super tanned, which is a problem because winter has taken its ghostly white toll on my skin.

Thus, my obviously brilliant plan is to fake bake once or twice before next Saturday. No one will notice that way, right??

abstract submission deadline

Due to lack of internet in my apartment, I ended up staying at the hospital from 8:30am-12:30am in order to submit the two abstracts online.
"Boat," my 99 silver Taurus, also died the night before and was in the shop. My knight in shining armor and his Civic stead had to wait until I finished and submitted the abstracts to take me home.
It's the party in the CL intern room Tuesday nights:

a book at the dallas heritage village totally described the scene at teddy's this weekend:

siri and mom

(while showing mom the features of the siri):

me: siri, call mommy.

siri: which number of mommy do you want me to call?

mom: how did she get my number???

me: ... it was already on my phone.

mom: (looks confused, studies phone and sees her icon attached to her number) how did she get my photo?

me: ....
