Greetings from the flatland.

Well, I'm posting again. Sorry for the delay. I also have yet to send my new cell number to many of you, because I haven't had internet acess for a while, and won't have it regularly until my mas-produced Dell laptop arrives from the Dell-people. Incidentally, it's already 2 days late. This is a bad start with the Dell-people, who I'm not too fond of to begin with.

Enough.

It's raining here almost every day. I have a third story apartment with a balcony, though, so I often sit out there at night and watch the lightening storms. I love a good light show. Storms have always done something to me...when Hurricane Elvis rolled through Memphis a couple of years ago, my dad and I both got up at 5 am to watch it. Of course, the frantic scratching coming from the back door helped me along. Delta hates storms. And fireworks. She's just happy to be inside, though...when I was a kid we had a dalmation who would make a beeline for the bathtub every time it stormed.

I don't like it here, I'll confess. I'm hoping that will change as school starts, but so far, I'm just lonely and bored.
