Free Time?

So my "insane amount of free time" is gone. G-O-N-E. Apparently I should have been using that time to stay on top of my classes. However, in true Janie-style, I opted to play Wii (yes we got one and yes I'm obsessed with it), go out drinking a lot, and generally lounge around the house not doing anything productive. It was a wonderful idea at the time, but looking back I wish I had at least done a LITTLE bit of anything.

I did break down and finally go to the grocery store tonight after only having a kaiser roll with a piece of cheese on it for lunch and some really old oatmeal for breakfast. I have found frozen Stouffers meals that cook in the microwave in like 10-15 minutes. I am so excited. I just hope my microwave doesn't catch fire since the last time we used it for a prolonged period (read more than 3 minutes), it did, resulting in a new microwave. So I am testing out this microwave, and so far, so good. I do have the cabinet door open where it is plugged in, just in case...

I'm sure you are thrilled to learn about my grocery shopping and microwave status, and I don't blame you-it's quite an exciting topic.
Microwave just beeped-looks like I survived!!

Back!

Well after my summer hiatus, I've decided to return to the world of blogging. I can only assume that everyone stopped checking after months of inactivity, but that's okay. School has started full swing, but without work in my schedule, I feel like I have insane amounts of free time. Just being a student has been so much fun already. I even went up with a UM-hosted group to Gainesville for the UM-UF football game (despite the loss, it was still a lot of fun!). I am starting the job hunt- I go back and forth between thinking it's fun/exciting and terrifying/depressing. Hopefully it will end up on the fun/exciting side of the spectrum.

I am currently taking a break from doing homework on a Friday night (yes, I am that lame) but am anticipating a Wii purchase this weekend, so I am planning ahead. Matt and I will be battling it out and surely spending too much time wii-ing. We were going to get a dog but decided a Wii would be just as fun without the responsibility and mess. You don't have to take a Wii out to go to the bathroom at 6 in the morning. But Wii's don't cuddle, so it was a trade-off.
