Yay! Matt and I are likely taking a mini-trip to Baker Oregon this weekend :) I want a Safeway fix, and we just want to get out of town briefly, in general. It's only about a two hour drive!

Valentine's Day was awesome! Repo the Genetic Opera was amazing, as was The PreSurgical Suite ballet that was on before the showing.

Have got first major exam for Geology course on Thursday, think it'll go well. I'm really enjoying my other Geology course though, currently learning about fossils and evolution in that class...

Finished anime series Ai Yori Aoshi, awww, I wish it were a longer series. Very good one.

Bought some resistance bands to exercise with. Have decided to cancel gym membership due to lack of time and whatnot, so have been alternating between Wii Fit, Pilates/aerobics, and now have got resistance bands with a very fun dvd to go with it...also got a cardio dance dvd but haven't quite got the coordination for that one, i'm working on it :) Have enough variety there for a mini gym, haha, and the resistance bands add quite a bit of ways to get in the toning you'd normally need a variety of gym machines for. I love it!

How is everyone?

Hopefully 4th time is a charm. Posted taxes electronically for the fourth time today. First year filing joint, and first year Matt is filing at all 9he emigrated Aug 2007, and did not have a work permit until 2008 so all of his 2007 income was in UK, and no tax return was needed)....so some obvious snags have come up. Good thing we started on it early, instead of waiting until April!

PS:
I saw a humongous spider scurry into my laptop bag and now I'm scared to put my hand into it. It's odd, I was fine with all the bugs in CT and CA but most of the ones out here I don't want to touch, because they look quite different than the ones I grew up around. I used to play with insects constantly when I was little!
