Another Bored Entry

I’m continuing to count the days (5 of them) until Heather’s return, but in the meantime her absence has given me an opportunity to reflect a bit on some things. Such as just how insane it is that I actually flew to California to meet a girl from the internet. Which isn’t to imply that I regret it, I definitely don’t, but sometimes it just suddenly sinks in how nuts the idea is. Seriously, I hadn’t been on a plane since the age of 10 (and I was accompanied by my entire family then) and I’m not exactly known to be the adventurous sort – it’s just hard for me to comprehend that I flew to California and lived with strangers for a week and it was that easy. It makes me oddly proud of myself.
 
In other news, I coughed up $45 to the university today as part of a “graduation fee” for the regalia one wears at graduation this, of course, despite the fact that I’m not participating in graduation. But, naturally, any excuse the college can find to charge you money is good enough for them.
 
Also, Kyle bought a new record player this weekend. Yes, that’s right, I said a new record player. No, I didn’t have the slightest idea they still made those either. But, indeed, they do, and Kyle purchased one, thus, we’ve been spending lots of time sitting around playing old records the last few days. Granted, we could likely download any of the songs we’re listening to at the same quality online within seconds, but it wouldn’t be nearly the same. Because records are cool.
 
Anyway, this was just another bored entry. My apologies, as usual.
