Day Two: Reconnecting

Tonight I had dinner with my good friend from college, SJ.  We were inseparable during undergrad and I used to devour all the Indian care packages her mom sent her from their home in Africa.  It is an absolute travesty that we don't get together more often these days, since we're only a few miles apart in CO.  She is busy with this little 4-month old.

Could you die or what?  So cute!
I hung out with her fam for a while tonight and we promised to get together regularly from now on, come hell or high water.  Her parents live with her but are originally from Zambia, so we had to talk all things Africa.  They gave me all kinds of tips for the next time we go (DEAR GOD, I HOPE IT'S SOMETIME SOON.  I NEED A RICH BENEFACTOR TO SUPPORT MY LIFESTYLE.  IT'S THE LEAST YOU CAN DO, AMEN.)

Totes adorbs kiddos.

We haven't aged a bit!
I'm super proud of myself because I used today to make up for all the productivity that didn't happen yesterday.  I'm proud to say that I resealed all the kitchen tiles!  Domesticity: check.

I also finished the abstract for my final paper, made some progress in our latest Lit Society book, ran errands, worked out (!), completed additional tutoring lesson plans for the coming weeks, and contemplated getting started on my paper rewrite...still haven't cleaned our bathroom.  Still haven't finished the laundry.  But there's a goooood chance I'll go for a run tomorrow.  It's all coming together.  I need a spring break every other week or so.  Someone needs to do something about that.

Time to don the jammies and read, read, read.
