Yes, I was gone. I had computer troubles and I was offline for a while. So here's what's been going on.
On Monday May 1, I was finishing my last paper for the semester when the hard drive on my computer suddenly died. So I actually had to hand in a copy of my paper with changes written by hand because I wasn't able to print the final copy. The prof was very understanding (and still gave me an A+ on the paper
) but it was kind of embarassing.
Then the next day, since I was finally on vacation, I decided to clean up my apartment (it was a mess!) and do my laundry. Right near the end of the last load of laundry, my washing machine broke.
After that, I went out of town for a few days to visit some friends, which was really nice. I really needed to get away.
Now I'm back in town. I bought a new hard drive and finally managed to get things running (more or less) and I'm back online.
I also started my summer class - Introduction to Spanish. Just over a week ago, I couldn't speak any Spanish at all and now I can form simple sentences. I'm pretty proud of myself. I still need some practice though.
On Tuesday May 9, my niece was born! Her name is Laurence and she was 8lb 1oz. I saw her this weekend and I couldn't believe how small she was (I'd never seen a newborn baby before). So cute.
The cats are doing fine. Joshua is still stressed out because I was gone for a few days last week but he should be fine. He says MEEEOOOOWWW to everyone. (it's easy to tell when he's stressed, he'll meow constantly)
So that's it.
