I took the day off to be with my family today


I’m at BJ’s college right now, kinda tired, we had to get up at 4:30 to get here in time for all the things going on today. I’m just about ready for a nap.



So, I’m in the library. I spent a little time sketching and writing on some scrap paper I found around, but my parents are in orientation from 1:30-3:00, and most of my sketching stuff is still in the van.

They have these computers in the library really locked down pretty hard, heh. i can’t get to quixotica. to check my mail or anything, and netscape crashes fairly often
bj’s at the gym or something.



The campus is really beautiful, just a few blocks from the water, and once you’re inside, it doesn’t feel like you’re in downtowne chicago. The Library is nice too, it’s in the basement, but there are windows overhead in some spots, bringing sunshine through, making it seem less basement like. Woo, a campus tour is just coming through.


Poor Bj, they over booked the rooms and he’s living in the floor lounge, which has been converted into a room, with room for 8 people! ack! heh. quite a surprise for a guy who enjoys his privacy as much as BJ does. But I think he’ll do fine, his roomates, mostly international all seem nice and I can see them all getting along well. Plus, his dorm is right across from the gym, which he is really excited about. Thankfully he had way less stuff than I ever took to college,heh.


I called Melanie from one of the phones in BJ’s room. That was way cool, we talked about Ren Faire stuff, she went last saturday too! We must have just missed her, she came just after 3, and we left around 4. Too bad, though we might have to catch another Ren faire weekend elsewhere.



Mom and Dad are being all silly and parenty, trying to make sure that everything gets taken care of before we leave my brother to his college life. It’s totally driving my brother bonkers.


So, anyway, I’ll be here in the library till about 3:10. still not sure when we will be leaving, though I’m sure BJ just wants us gone so he can get on with his own plans.



ciao
