Lots of sports

So I've been watching a lot of sports lately. A lot. The Phillies are tearing up the postseason so obviously I can't miss that. Iowa is not tearing anything up except my heart but I'll still watch them whenever I can. I'm a pseudo-fan for ND and PSU. And the Eagles aren't too impressive but I live in the Philadelphia area so I have to watch them or else be ostracized.

This takes up a lot of my time which is good. Until all of these things are over. Then I'll have to get a new hobby. No joke, quilting has crossed my mind.

But I have opened applications at 4 of the 5/6 schools I'm going to apply to so that is progress. Applying to graduate schools is expensive though. Fees for the application, for transcripts, for the GRE. Good thing I'm charging it all to Mom and Dad. Because, you know, it's for my future and all.

I've been hanging out with Jamie and Audrey a lot. Megan too. And all of their friends. It's been fun and a relief to have them in my life because otherwise I would be all alone, all the time. Jamie and I went to see Emily coach a Quidditch match. Yes, Quidditch. Thank god for liberal arts schools with nerdy kids who will do things like play Quiditch. It was low budget but entertaining.

So, things are fairing rather well. Colin and I are going to meet Mom and Dad in NYC on Thursday to go to per se which will be unbelievable (as Dad would say). I'm looking forward to that. But before then, I have to play housekeeper and be around for pool people, yard people, painters, and furniture deliveries. Also, McGriff. Not so bad though.
