kassrachel and yaoobruni are wonderful hosts, as most of you know.
While not running around looking at apartments or exploring, I was mostly a hermit on my trip, because well, I could. I got to sit all by myself and read books and not deal with other people or their demands. I don't get that opportunity much (or ever). So I was non-social, and I didn't get to see anyone while there. But there will be plenty more opportunities for that later.
I read many books while gone (all titles and authors off the top of my head) - including Three Junes, by Julia Glass, which I really enjoyed. The Commitment, Dan Savage's book about marriage (pretty good), a whole lot of Dykes to Watch Out For collections (yay!), and much of Anne of Green Gables (it had been a while - yay again!).
Um.
I could rant a tiny bit about my trip home, which was mostly fine (United sucks, "on time" does not mean "we have landed" to me but "We are getting off the plane now" (related: to the ground crew at Dulles - I don't care if it's raining and other people gatechecked their bags, I want off the freaking plane! so unlock the doors!), stupid girl from Florida sitting behind me needed to STFU). Ahem.
Anyway - we leave SOON. Wow.
ETA: I also read Tender At the Bone by Ruth Reichl. Very good.
