I apologize that once again I'm not in love
But it's not as if I mind
that your heart ain't exactly breaking
It's just a thought, only a thought
I've always thought
that I would love to live by the sea
To travel the world alone
and live more simply
I have no idea what's happened to that dream
Cos there's really nothing left here to stop me
It's just a thought, only a thought
I am totally in love with my new Dido CD. I've been listening to it a lot in the last few days and I'm still not sick of it.
Its fun playing hooky from school today. My attendence patterns are a far cry from my usual 50% in my morning classes in college, and this is only the third class this semester I've missed.
Tonight, I'm going to see the Matrix: Revolutions. And eat at Mely's, my favorite tex-mex EVER and they have live PERUVIAN music on Thursday nights (All on the path to get me psyched out for Peru next year - did I mention on our plane flight home from Greece, they played a music video that was shot at Machu Picchu? I'm telling you, its calling to me.) Its going to be a good night.
Tomorrow afternoon, I fly to D.C. for the weekend, and I'll be back on Monday morning. A whirlwind trip. I love visiting D.C. Every time I go, I feel like I should move there. Maybe in a few years. Going to Aunt Di's is the same comfort as going home. And I love seeing my old friends that live in D.C. Old friends are so much fun, because our relationships are so much more carefree and established than new friends (I feel like I should start singing the Girl Scout's song "make new friends but keep the ollld, one is silver and the other's gold..."!).
So, the plan is Saturday lunch party at Aunt Diane's with Melissa and Sharon (the twins, high school friends), maybe Heather (college roommate), Kent, Carter, and Christina (from GT too). Then probably out and about for some rapid D.C. tourism. Then out to dinner (with Heather and her new hubby?). Then off with Sharon to an 80s Prom Party (yes, you heard me correctly, and no, I haven't figured out what to wear yet, but if anyone knows where I can get a pair of stilleto boots from...). Sunday is Aunt Diane-day. This involves pedicures and going to Bounce! at the Kennedy Center and possibly sushi.
