Lazy time? Pshaw to you, lazy time

I forgot to mention—yesterday was Mom and Dad’s anniversary. Julia and Sam came over and we had apple pie. And it was awesome.


Last night was also general priesthood meeting in the local stake here in southwest Austin. It was really nice, and very nostalgic—sitting there in the stake center surrounded by people who had been my ward leaders and temple prep teachers and home teaching companions and seminary teachers, sitting in the same building where I’d gone to early morning seminary five days a week at 6—lots of wonderful high school memories came flooding back. It’s crazy to think how long ago that was—which is why I’m not going to think about it. I’m not old. Nope. No sir.


Today I mainly sat down and planned out everything I’ve got to do while I’m home—and realized that my down time will be pretty minimal until I head to NYC. Of course, there will be moments to spend with family, but between prep for Teach For America and getting everything ready to move/leave, final reporting on my work with Care For Life, getting laptops fixed and going to dentists and all the rest, this week or so will be very much a working vacation. Which is fine—lazing about gets kinda boring, anyways.

You're not old. If you're old, I'm two years younger than old, and that's still old. So no, you're not old. Nor lazy. I know what you mean with lists--I've been making a few of my own lately...most recently, colleges and universities in the NY/NJ area 'round these parts, as that might be one of my easier ways into the psychotherapy training, since it's a good spot to find post-docs and all that. I'm just crossing my fingers I don't get the answer I've been getting recently: that they've already hired all the interns they have in their budget to take on. I'm not giving up, though. I'll make more calls when I'm in the employment office tomorrow. Lazy time? Pshaw indeed.
