things in our sight lately






it feels like i don't have enough time anymore.
my first conclusion is that i am not used to working full-time, which cannot be the case, as i have been doing such for four years now...but i just am not fully adjusted to my new schedule. (i think brian agrees)
it has been a really busy couple of weeks. i have learned the following:
1. new jersey drivers will always honk at and yell at you unless you have a tri-state area license plate...so there will be lots more to come of that for us.
2. it's expensive to live in new jersey. you are close to MANY things, but they all cost money.
3. you can interrupt as many times as you want in a conversation with someone from new jersey, to relate or show that you are listening (which they also do to you). i have found this to be sometimes fun and sometimes jarring in a conversation.
4. you shouldn't drop your phone in yogurt the same week your husband's phone's battery dies. you will not have an easy time communicating with the people you love and miss with no phone.

the above pictures are from: the beach, a library at georgetown we visited while visiting our friends michelle and joel and also a basilica there that is really welcoming to internationals at catholic university, a new pic of my polaroid wall i am pretty excited about, and a picture of brian's toy shelf he is really excited about.

love you and missing you friends and family.
