Brains!

So there are lotsa different ways to think about time...but if I think about the time between now and home in this sense, it seems to feel like no time at all:

So I have three weekends till I go home, and on the fourth weekend I am graduating and moving out! AND one of those first three weekends, I will be on a mini-break field trip to Chico for CGS!

So needless to say that's pretty groovy. I guess this afternoon I started get all stroppy about it. I felt like stamping my feet and screaming "i want to go home now waaaaa!".

On another note....(yay for not starting the damn paragraph with 'so') I am reading a book about William Smith, the father of Geology called The Map That Changed The World" by Simon Winchester. I'm actually supremely interested in the geology in general as of recently, but for some reason I just want to inhale the book instead of reading it. I think that has to do with my 'strop'. Anyway, if I were an aspiring student, I might have liked geology as a major. However sometimes we geographers get the term "lazy geologists", because many times we study the same thing, but we skip out on all the hardcore science. We like to dilly dally around with people, and the shit that grows out of the rocks and dirt. Geologists would prefer the earth to be completely empty of such surface features, in order to read it's beautiful history, and present crunching and cracking... Also on a rather different note, I seem to have a crush an immediate crush on anyone who is into earth science, earth process. Jordan fits nicely in that selection of people.
