This is the story of...  I remarked to Emma way back in Argentina that whenever the singer of the Decemberists says "this is the story of...", he never actually tells you the story that he says he's going to tell you.  Just an observation.
 
I'm back from Argentina now, arrived two weeks ago.  I've been mostly unpacking and working, back with Oz at URS.  We've had so much time on our hands, because things aren't breaking down.  Nobody needs us.  It's such a weird feeling.  I'm a little melancholy about being back; I've been here for so long, for only one or two months at a time.  I feel like I've spent my summers locked in the office.  I can't do this for work.  This gives more support to my "become a paleontologist and write a grant to go digging down in Mendoza again" plan for life after school.  Yesterday I figured out that even after transferring, I can probably still graduate on time, or at the most one semester late.  I'm not sure if I could've even done that at CP.  Which means, I'll have to figure out a real plan for after I graduate.  I've been waiting for something to really grab me, to hit me over the head and scream "wow that's wacky!" like Andy Dick in Family Guy, and inspire me to devote my next few years to something, but nothing has yet.  Was that unrealistic?  I don't think so...  It just didn't happen... 
 
This month, this summer...  July.  Picnicking on the Northwestern lawn...  I can't start my bonsai seeds yet because we're going out of town in August for Alyssa's wedding...  I could plan next year's garden...  Karate?  Music?
