Can't talk now, ya'll, I'm deep in homework territory and the enemy has me surrounded.

What was that? Did you hear whispering?

Oh no, they've found me!

My ne particles have their machetes pointed at me, while der Deutschkurs is sticking a camera in my face, asking "Wie spät ist es?"

I'll tell you what time it is...it's time to get our butts out of Dodge. Wait, did I just use a metaphor? An idiom? Was that metonymy or irony?

We're all doomed.

Liar Liar, Pants on Fire...

While I am pretty sure that no one reads this blog, nonetheless I must take a moment to apologize for not keeping up with it as I should. I intended to update it at least once a day, then it was at least once a week, and now I'm lucky if I remember it before I have to flip months on the calendar.

 Quick update on me:
School is going quite well. I'm not as busy as I had expected, but I'm sure crunch time will be hitting soon. I love working with languages, and am glad to say that I am now enrolled in German 101, and my work involves reading Latin, so I get to keep my skills sharp (except for Spanish, which sadly has fallen by the wayside....SIDEBAR: There are few minorities in Eugene, with the exception of Asians, and sadly I don't know any Asian languages yet...but my point is, I don't get to use my Spanish or my AAVE as much as I would like....). My classes are going well and I am learning a lot.

I'm really enjoying Oregon. The people are all very nice, although they don't know how to drive properly of course, and the area is just gorgeous. I love my new apartment, and the kitties are adjusting quite well. Hubby is working hard at his new job, and everything seems to be coming up Aces for the time being. 

So that's the low down. While I won't make a promise to update this sucker daily, I will try to check back in more often, as it's always amusing talking to myself. Peace and chicken grease homies...(I miss you, AAVE).
