I went home early yesterday, slightly ill. That's why the blogging ended in the a.m. hours. A few hours of sleep and some Advil, and things were peachy ... at least until the Advil wore off. But I spent a completely enjoyable time having dinner with some friends from my hometown.

Today I drove and drove and drove till I arrived Home, encountering only a few idiots who felt that their need was great enough to risk driving recklessly through rain and heavy traffic. Now I'm here, and Daisy is very happy to see me, as are my parents, since they have been waiting for two weeks for me to come Home and set up their brand new computer. It's funny, in the groups I usually hang out in, I'm the non-technical one, the newbie, the one who must have everything explained to her in very simple terms. When I come Home, I'm the expert. It's kinda scary.
