Weather, weekend etc

Waiting for 45 min on an open platform for a train is not fun in any weather. Especially not in cold.

I wish I had stayed home.

I had a wonderful weekend full of those tender moments you don't really think people have in "real" life. I know we were not apart long but it felt like we had been for ages. And it was very nice to have a three day weekend to spend with him.. I also went to an opera with friends on Sunday but most of the time we were together.

Last night I watched the pilot and first two episodes of Babylon 5. I enjoyed them (I think these may have been the ones I saw when I was a freshman) and am eagerly awaiting when I get to watch more although that is not going to happen until like next monday.

Sigh why is he going to be out of town on a weekend when it seems nothing is going on?

Something just really seemed to work well. I even slept well 3/4 nights we were together and only abandoned him ans slept in the living room once. That is really good for me.

I bought new winter/hiking boots yesterday. They have a satisfaction guarantee so I waxed them last night and am wearing them today. My last pair of boots lasted me 6 years before I decided to retire them, and now they feel like sox with soles compared to these. These boots are tougher and give me much more support I think. They also go up higher on the ankle. They should be good for working on the boat and hiking since they have vibram soles.

My SO of course _had_ to point out the USGS benchmark mugs so I _had_ to buy them. Sigh.

A good weekend.

I will be going to WHOI tomorrow but have no laptop so will have to get creative to find something to do Wed night.

winter stuff..

i am sitting in my friends/neighbor's apt writing on their computer. Sometimes its nice to know people with 8 of them. I am glad not to be at school I will get to read for a few hours! :)

The snow is dreadful but for me serendipitous today.
