Hmm... So this is the real world?!

So here I am, 5 days post graduation. Feels good. Actually, I feel more like a student than I have in a long time with my astronomy class and working back at the library. My days have gone, thus far, something like this:
8am Class
10:30 Break
11:00 "work" at the library
3:00 walk to the bookstore because I always need somethign for class
3:30 Nap
6 (or so) dinner... usually at grandparents because I'm poor
7:30ish tv/cleaning. The apartment is a mess.

Througout the week i've also managed to do some packing, burn popcorn on two separate occasions, get my church planning done up to September (forever... for me) Talk to the fabulous Ian on the phone for 2 hours (until my phone DIED. Like, unable to resussitate- finally my car charger seemed to jump the battery and its all good now- I think), spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about abstract thought (thanks astronomy)read parts of sex in the city (fun) and watch that fellow get his head chopped off in Iraq. (not fun)

Anyway, The point is... I've had a busy week but have done absolutely nothing! No job offers on the phone this week (now that I actually have TIME to go to an interview), Didn't win the lottery, Didn't get ANY laundry done. Its been too quiet.

I;m growing a goatee, at least for the 2 weeks before Cedar Point. It looks awful, and I think thats swell!

There is still plenty of liquor in the apartment, for those interested. Last week, I was an alcoholic. I probably spent 150 bucks total on alcohol (both my own money and other people... and when you play with the bartenders girlfriend that makes things better, but ONLY if you're gay!) I had approximatley 3 senior walks that I remember, plus champagne and strawberry daqueris on graduation night with the crew. I'm still cleaning, and probably still perspiring alcohol. Probably explains all the napping, but it was a great week.

Except for my meeting with Dr. Patterson. The fucking day before graduation, 10am (after the official senior walk night) I have to meet with the two professors that I really have NO desire to spend time in a room with. The other will remain namless, but I've talked about it before. Basically, teo totally boil it down, that nameless professor did something stupid, and to make it better, they slapped my wrists instead of his- since I'm still graduating summa cum laude and such. However, I'll be gone whereas those two characters have to stay.

Dr. Stover is going to SIU- Carbondale next year. She kinda offered me an assistanship. Nothing official, and I wasn't planning on grad school financially or otherwise, but if I can get it, I'm gonna go! I like thinking too much.

So, thats the Rob-overview. I'm just kinda hanging out here in the middle without any plans. Horray for the real world, I suppose.
