Hello from Cornell! It's currently pouring! It's probably revenge on me, as my poor sister and mom were corralled into helping me move out during pouring rain during my graduation. It had rained three straight months or so on the east coast back then, then I got sick, it poured, and we had to move out in mud several inches deep. Really gross.

Not much going on, just accompanying my sister around various official functions. Man, Cornell has a lot of people! The whole family is there, and just as weird as always, hee ;). And I got to see my sister's apartment for the first time, and I'm currently helping them cook for dinner, if by help you mean sticking cornbread in the oven and setting a timer.

Also, the university sale was having a sale so I got more university press books for $7 each, as opposed to the usual $20 some! Joy! I also got a cute little frog wearing a Cornell t-shirt keychain magnet and a cute little T-Rex with the goofiest smile ever. He is flourescent green. The frog is named Fred, but I can't think of a name goofy enough for the T-Rex yet. Naming stuffed animals is quite important and must be gone through with adequate thought.

We also poked our head in the rare manuscript library just in time to see some lady pull out an old 15th-century prayer book, complete with illuminations and gold script and everything. Really cool.

Why yes, I am a giant dork who goes to her sister's graduation and buys academic books at a sale. Books! Yay!
