Catching the Twilight

Caroline-booksmart.jpgIt's been an unusually busy couple of days. I cancelled a trip to the Adirondacks after signs of something vaguely flu-like (which is, unfortunately, lingering with me for more than week). Exams and papers wrapped up, I have had nothing to do but sit at home -- my car's unexpected coma (possible death) has made sure of that. The prospect of a quiet solstice alone didn't sit very well with me. After a night of playing psychiatrist and psychiatrist (instead of psychiatrist and patient) with my old friend Sarah, I decided to clean up some mistakes I had made earlier in the year. That meant re-befriending a young lass around the corner, Caroline (pictured). Not a bad move, in the grand scheme of things, and it just feels right.

Trans-Siberian.jpgIt was also a fun re-union with odd acquaintances from last year -- a roommate and an ex-boyfriend of Sarah's were in attendance. After much going back-and-forth, Caroline and I opted to hit up the Trans-Siberian Orchestra on Tuesday night, hitting up a French restaurant on the way. This girl is something else -- fluent French meant she could flirt deliciously (or perhaps it was order our drinks, you can never tell) with the waitstaff. Bonne peine!

So, being stuck in Syracuse (while it has prevented me from getting all my shopping done properly) has turned out to be not so bad. Or possibly that was downright good.
