I completely forgot to mention this last time -- the frustration with my computer made me forgetful, perhaps -- but the fact remains that I have a creature that is in desperate need of a name. A darling ceramic creature that my goofy brother gave me over Xmas.
Now, I don't want you influenced by what it looks like, so as soon as he's named (yes, the beastie is undeniably male) I promise to post a photo. The only guideline I will give y'all is that he is stereotypically Texan & thus needs a name that is equally stereotypical.
The frontrunner at the moment is Billy Bob, if you were wondering, with two suggestions.
In other news, the trip to Dublin went well. Except for a taxi driver who lied about where he was while we stood in the super-gusty wind waiting on him & missed the train & so had to wait 2 hrs for the next one. But, really, that's a minor detail. I was more worried about getting blown away as we walked across UCD's campus.
The weather has taken a turn for the cold again. It was starting to feel downright mild -- meaning on Sunday & Monday I was considering pulling out a lighter coat. Yesterday, though, I felt like my hands were turning into ice as I walked to class.
Nothing quite like the weather back home, I know; but I really can't compete at all with ice & snow in south Texas. It figures, I leave the state & it freezes over! And I can't gloat about being nice & warm either. Alas. :P
Well, back to preparing for that exam in just under 3 weeks.
