So far this year the following has happened:

1. River has lost her ever loving mind. Which means that it's true you should watch who you name your pets after. This dog is too smart for us. I guess I'm the Simon to her River because I left and she flipped out.

2. I have returned to Texas. As it turns out there is a nice part of Texas it is called The Woodlands, and it's where my parents moved. I got to see the new house they will be closing on soon. It's wonderful with a pool. Texas just became an interesting place to visit.

3. Orbitz will no longer be getting my business. I have the e-mail they sent me about my ticket information It very clearly shows a departure time from Houston of 5:40 PM. However, when they finally found my reservation at the airport, it turns out my flight left at 3:40 PM. FAIL. When I called Orbitz customer service line later they just said "That's too bad. At this time this is an issue you'll need to take up with the airline to get on another flight." and as to why I was not alerted to a change in my flight status "your spam filter probably blocked it"

4. On the other hand Continental and United will continue to get my business. The woman at the Continental line upon finding my reservation and wondering why I thought my flight was at 5:40, was wonderful. She searched for all flights going to Fresno. She could get me to all the airports that do fly to Fresno, but not actually Fresno. So I got to spend another night with my parents and Haley. She got me to Fresno today, and the people at both airlines were really helpful.

5. I have been assaulted by a baby. I had to sit next to a woman and her very small child on the plane. Very small child instead of bursting into tears at the sight of me, decided he had to hit me. All throughout the flight. With respect to the Mom she did try and stop him as much as possible. But random baby hand to the face was not fun. Nor was it fun when he chucked his bottle at me a few times. I will not be having children.

6. Statistics. I've got four more weeks left. October 29, 2011 is when I finish my degree. Can you tell I'm excited?

7. I briefly glanced over my friends page and it seems like there's some goal to read 50 books in 2011? I'm at three so I might have to go and sign up. It also looks like we're all reading the same books-The Hunger Games. I'm on book three right now. I read the first two in Texas and bought the third at LAX. Must know what happens.

So far, I'm 4 days into 2011 and it's been a very interesting year. I like interesting, but I'd like it to calm down some.

Pets are wonderful things, really they are. I love my dog, even though she has made today very hard. I apparently am the only one in my house that likes to sleep in to a decent time in the morning (at least 8:00 preferably 9:00) Haley (who is an Australian Shepard) thinks she needs to get up every time someone else gets up and say good morning. That'd be fine it's fairly easy to open the door to my room so she could go outside, but after saying good morning to whoever got up she comes back to my room. So this happens three times which isn't good for sleep. Needless to say I got up early this morning. Not fun. I like my sleep, really like my sleep.

Today I got to go see Caitlin and meet some of her friends. That was really fun. I like the way they think. Plus Caitlin is one of the people behind the pocky stories. She saved me from myself when I thought things would never end. I love my friends they're all so wonderful. Anyway, we sat around and talked mostly. Thankfully there was no ab workout involved. Well, a little, but not enough to cause serrious pain to anyone. Tomorrow we're going on the pocky run to celebrate the end of the pocky stories. Melanie can't come and that makes me sad, but Caitlin and I are taking pictures for her, and bringing her pocky. Well, I think that's all for now. I'm going to go sleep, provided my dog will let me. I have a headache, which I think is from the heat.

I don't know if I mentioned this but I started writing my last self insertion story, which isn't a pocky story. Everyone who knows about that is very happy. Type in metaphorical pocky on a search engine and look for stories, I think you'll be able to find something. Anyway, it's short so far, and I'm going to try and keep it short. Wish me lots of luck. Oh, and for anyone who follows anime and reads manga it's set in the Dragon Knights universe.
