Packing it up

Last night (as in "all night") they were doing road work outside of our apartment building. Okay, technically they were working a little further up the road, however, the piles of asphalt and other muck they were using to pave the aforementioned road were right outside our window, so all night long there were trucks coming and going. It felt like every few minutes I was eased into a wakeful state by the soothing sound of trucks backing up, beeping the entire time. Needless to say, by the time I got out of bed this morning I was feeling a bit fussy.

Tomorrow we're heading down to PA for a few days, which means I won't have internet access until we get back. Things I am looking forward to about this trip to Lewisburg:

1. Seeing Megan and Adrian.
2. Watching Gilmore Girls. Every Tuesday at 8 I get the shakes and start thinking we should just buy another tv already.
3. Not having to listen to someone stomp around on top of us all day long.
4. Not having to wonder if tomorrow morning at 5am our neighbor's alarm clock will go off. This wouldn't be a problem if it didn't continue to go off every seven minutes for the next hour and a half. Sometimes they just let the alarm go off for five or ten minutes at a time. Also, they conveniently don't answer their door. Sorry. Remember how I said I woke up fussy?
5. Not having to wake up to the sound of construction at seven in the morning.
6. Carving some pumpkins and eating some cake in honor of my and Megan's upcoming birthdays.

I suppose now I should go clean and pack and think about all the things I'd like to get done before we leave but probably won't manage to do because it feels like I'm moving through molasses. See you in a few days...
