I have just been very busy… and right now, I am too tired to write a lot.
The Brew Fest is a week from tomorrow. We have a LOT of things to do still, and next week will be a very busy week. That’s a good thing - but the weather has been very dreary, and I want the sun to come out so I can walk downtown (the Fest is downtown, as well as where everyone works). I would much rather walk downtown than drive, because it’s only a bit over a mile. Want tickets? They can be bought online at www.beersforgood.com Get them early - cause the price goes up at the gate!
I leave for England in 3ish weeks? I’m very excited. I need to start making a list of things I want to do. Bike and jog around town is top of the list! I just need a map of Southampton with Megan’s house circled, and I’ll be fine! As long as I can get back to their house, I’ll be all set. Two times ago that I was there, I got lost in town, Megan didn’t answer her phone, I got on the wrong bus, and I sat in town and cried. That will NOT happen again.
I had an interview at a hospice house yesterday, and I GOT THE INTERNSHIP! It’s up in Merrimack, NH. That’s good for several reasons: a) it’s only 45 minutes away, and mostly back roads. Not bad. b) New Hampshire has no sales tax, so if I need anything big (computer, camera, iPhone), I can buy it in NH. c) I pass by this super cheap liquor store, so I can stop for stuff for Jason or my dad three times a week and d), my friend Eric lives in the Merrimack/Nashua area, so if there is a bad storm, then I can probably just stay at his house and not have to drive home. I should keep a change of regular/work clothes in my car (and an iron!).
The internship is 600 hours, and I will be there Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays starting September 1, and go until March-ish. I’m very excited. I think I am going to need more clothes. Heh.
Tonight I am going to maria’s house in Danvers (about an hour away) - and we are doing dinner, and then I’m sleeping over. Hopefully we’ll have a lot of fun. Not sure what we’ll do - even if we just play games, watch a movie, and eat, I’ll be happy.
Off to pack for Maria’s!

Awesome! I thought you were going for one in Waltham… did I get things confused? ANyway, congrats! 45min drive each way is a LONG drive… I would maybe get one of those mp3 audio book subscriptions so you can download stuff and listen to books in the car. Actually, my friend Henry (Helen’s bf? Have you met him?) has about 1,000 audio books. I don’t know if they are any good or if they are weird robotic voice ones, but I can ask him. I’m sure we’ll see them while you’re here.
I’m excited about you coming to visit. With 3 of us, we’ll need to invite only one more person over to play Team Sorry!
