I'm back from up north and settled into where I'm house sitting until July 15. I also have a townhouse lined up for the next year- I move in on August 9, yipee! I'm really looking forward to having a place of my own that is not shared with my family, as much as I love them. This house sitting gig is a test run for living on my own I suppose.
The trip up north was really fun and I enjoyed meeting more of Keegan's relatives- they're hilarious and when you get a big group together, it's a lot of fun. Keegan, his dad, and I all went up to the reunion in Vermont while the rest of his family stayed with relatives on his mom's side of the family. At the picnic I met about 100 people (at least! look for pictures on Facebook soon!) from Mr. Brochu's side of the family and the reunion was held up on a mountain farm, so the views were really amazing.
I got to check Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Vermont off of my "states to visit" list; that gives me a total of 9 new states for 2008 (so far!).
I'm meeting with Monty (my Ph.D. adviser) next week so I'll be signing up for my classes soon after that! I'll let everyone know how intimidating they sound once I'm enrolled. He also sent me a paper to review so we can discuss it at our meeting- goody, goody, homework! Nah, it's not too bad :-) Gotta get used to how my life is going to be from now on!
