Hi!

Happy Monday!

Due to the holiday, the campus is fairly empty, and it's a bit inconvenient because the campus cafe is closed and all the building doors are locked. Still, it feels quieter on campus and hence I am happy to be in today.

J's got a surprise planned for me today. I'm to meet him at 2:30 to find out what it is!! Eeee! Just wnat I was sure the suspense would be satisfied at the end today, he informed me that he's got another one planned for the near future as well! So I shall pout and wonder a bit longer...but J is a sweetheart.

I had a really great (and draining!) weekend! Met up with jennlynnfs, bijoux, and Liz for tea at the Huntington, followed by Christmas and a North & South (non-Patrick Swayze) marathon. bijoux has made an awesome quilt for me for Christmas!!! I wanted to take pics, but my camera was at work. Will contrive to remember to bring it home tonight for pics.

Anyhow, between goofing off and munching on happy snacks, we ended up staying up until 6 am! I had to shoo them out (sorry, ladies!) and get some sleep!

Did not manage to muster up the energy for laser measurements, but I did learn manage to crocet a potholder this weekend. :p

Sounds like an exceedingly fun weekend! And now you have a surprise to look forward to as well!

Now if only you could use a laser to crochet a potholder...

Sounds like a nice weekend, though!

How was tea at the Huntington? Josh and I were looking into it. (As in, I was looking into it while Josh secretly hoped I'd forget about it.)

I love tea at the Huntington. I love their teas. for a flat rate ($15) you get as much tea as you want to drink and as much food (buffet-style). I like the food there too. It's all so yummy.

I'd go more often, but in order to get to the tea room, you have to pay admission to the gardens, so I usually want to set aside more time to walk around and enjoy a bit; the gardens are wonderful, and the library is incredible.

If Josh won't go with you, I'll meet you there! :)
