I was talking to my parents the other night and my mom was talking about some relative and she was like "She's actually from Shreveport, in Louisiana" and I nearly was like "OMG SHREVEPORT THAT'S WHERE FANGTASIA IS." But luckily before I opened my mouth I was like "...uh, wait. There is a difference between fiction and reality." I got super excited there for a second, though. And I couldn't even express my excitement to my mom because she doesn't watch True Blood. I need more fandom-y people in my real life!
Anyways, I am leaving tomorrow to go back to school. We're driving up again (whenever I say this, people always ask me why, and... I don't know. It's fun? I think my dad likes being able to take 2 weeks off work because he's way overworked. It's just what we do now. And I enjoy it). We are going to Kingman, AZ; the Grand Canyon (my first time! Well, I visited when I was 8 months old, but that doesn't really count); Winslow, AZ; Albuquerque, NM (we're staying there two days with my mom's uncle; it'll be the first time I've met him, other than when I was 8 months old. I'm kind of awkward around strangers, and we're staying at his house for two nights, so I'm kind of... nervous about it? I don't know. I'm sure it'll be fine); Santa Fe, NM; Colorado Springs, CO; Hays, KS; Kansas City, MO; Des Moines, IA; and then to St. Paul. We're arriving in St. Paul on September 2nd, and my parents are leaving on the 6th. Then classes start on the 9th! It's weird that I'm going back already. Well, I guess this has been a really long summer, and May does seem a really long time ago, but I still can't really believe that I'm going back already.
I'm going to do my best to keep up with my flist and update occasionally while I'm away, but the likelihood of that actually happening is minimal at best. I always say I will, and then I get to the first night and it's 11 PM and I just want to go to sleep and then there's just too much to catch up on. And I don't know what sort of internet access I'll have, either. So I'll do my best, but no promises. I don't know for sure what my internet situation will be once I've moved in, either (there is internet, but no wireless, from what I remember Li telling me), so I'll have to figure that out.
