So, its been a while since I've spilled my soul to the internet. And, since then, things continue to be an adventure. I've received inappropriate gifts from weird people, been bitten three times by a kid, and have locked myself out of my apartment. Or, rather, my key snapped in half, then I was out. Ive made friends, and spent Christmas with one of them. And, so did Bailey Beagle. She's still quite an impressive dog.

My house currently has a mouse. It's gross. And disturbing. And, of course, Bailey does not appear to have any interest in killing it. I set up a trap, which doesn't appear to be working. Maybe Bail will be more interested once it has already died.

At any rate, I shall continue sipping on Woodchuck and watching family Guy reruns until I hear a delightful "SNAP!"

Hopes, Dreams, ect.

So, as of recent, I have moved. And have, as a result, been readjusting to my life as it currently stands. I've gotten used to passing time alone, and with my beagle. I have managed to make new friends. I have a new appreciation for NPR. I have a new appreciation for new places, new people. People who have had many different life experiences than me. And people who love their pets as much as I love mine. It's cool. Ive been applying for grad schools again. I've been planning for the future as it goes. I'm hoping to spend the summer as a ranch hand before school starts in the fall, assuming I get in. It would be the best job ever. I'd get to live on a ranch for a few months, then return to the school and then, back to the ranch in the off season. I could be a grown up cowgirl! The possibilities are endless. I am 23, and my responsibilities are limited to me and my dog. Its quite nice.
