I realized I hadn't updated this blog for three weeks! As I'm sure you can all imagine, I've been extremely busy, what with a new job, a thesis, a whirlwind of holiday parties, Christmas, a nasty bout of flu, and getting the occasional hour or so of sleep!
I really will post a proper update later, just wanted to change the name of the blog (you are so intelligent you'll have noticed the changes already), and add a Google+ button, since apparently you can do that now.
My parents' Christmas party was oodles of fun, Christmas day was lovely (as were my presents), and now I'm just trying to shake off the flu, get past New Years' and my birthday, and then I can settle down to my thesis and kick its butt so I can go off to TAMU this fall with a light heart!

It's December???
How on earth did December get here so fast?!
Here's the short version of the past month:
Got permission to leave California and do my thesis long-distance.
Ran myself ragged selling furniture, calling utilities companies, cleaning apartment, and eating everything edible.
Rushed around SoCal seeing everything I hadn't seen already.
Lidia (my little sister) arrives by plane, packs up my car with my possessions.
We drive cross-country.
Arrive in Florida, exhausted and sick of each other.
Sleep for three days, although on the second day there is Thanksgiving, so I stay awake for that. (Mostly...)
Apply for seven jobs in one evening.
Get a job three days later. (Just like that, after six months of utter frustration in Long Beach!)
Get a gym membership. (Finally!)
Resume working on thesis.
I haven't even edited the roadtrip pictures yet, but they will be posted, along with a synopsis. I meant to blog from the road, but all the driving, the internet fiascoes, and a particularly difficult Sims Social quest drove it out of reach.
More later!
