This last weekend was my 'solo weekend'. The weekend that drove us to find a place to stay as quickly as possible. Laura went on a 3 night camping trip, and I stayed at our cabin. Hopefully Laura will fill you in on her trip, because it seemed really fun!
My weekend was pretty much spent watching TV. I don't like to drive, so beyond dropping Laura off and picking her up, I didn't use the truck. Going to the outhouse was my version of getting out of the house. Not that there is really anywhere that I would want to drive besides campus for internet. That didn't seem worth it to me, because I had the TV!
Laura and Diana have a fancy TV and a USB box thing with lots of movies and TV shows. So, I watched 3 seasons of Arrested Development and a season and a half of Queer as Folk. I didn't really feel bored, nor did I feel the need for Laura to come home... then I wouldn't have an excuse to watch TV all day long...
I think that I will probably opt to stay home every so often so that I can watch TV some days and use the internet some days. A productive life, I know.
I have officially gotten used to using a water jug for water and I have even accepted the stench of our outhouse (it smells, trust me - I've used many an outhouse). I haven't showered in 6 days and that doesn't seem weird to me. Obviously we will probably shower more often than that normally - every few days I would guess. We are going to shower after Laura's orientation today, but it's not like I feel like I have to immediately. As for showers, we weren't quite sure where I would shower since the showers on campus are only supposed to be for students. However we were told that Laura's building doesn't really monitor it, so we are going to try that as our shower location!
Ok... I think that is all that I have to say! The only other fun thing is that it was pretty windy yesterday and a tree fell over! This happened to be the tree that our bikes were attached to, so the lock snapped! We were very fortunate that the tree fell away from the truck, cabin and bikes!
I'm glad the tree didn't fall on you two!! Have fun in the toilet! :)
