Thanks For Standing By...Less Emo Posts To Come

Spring break is upon me, and I must say, so far it has been quite the break. Here's what has gone down so far:

• I moved juniper branches & stumps from my friend Rod's backyard. While there was payment involved, I had a genuinely good time getting dirty and sore.
• I ran into a friend I haven't seen in a while, Mike, at Satellite coffee, and ended up going to see Watchmen for free!
• I felt old at a concert (attended by mostly 13-year-olds) where one of my favorite bands, Disciple, really rocked hard, and brought back a legitimate head-banger's experience. I still have a crick in my neck. Like I said, old.
• I had coffee today with a good friend, and some new ones.

• I had a great lunch w/ Mikey and talked about IV stuff.

• I did my nm state taxes.
• I got a haircut.
• I actually got to sleep in, 2 days in a row!!
• I had a wonderful time having dinner, conversations, and watching Frasier (Hail to you corkmaster!) with Peter & Kathleen

And the week is only half over. I'm back in Socorro now, ready to maybe hit the hay a little early, so I can be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for work tomorrow. I still have some homework to work on for Monday, but I believe in taking spring break as slowly as possible.

I may actually feel rested enough to take on the rest of the semester when it comes. More on that to follow.
