I saw one of those totally wipe out. I don't know what happened, I was across the street, they were all stationary, I was looking at the traffic. Suddenly, I heard a loud whirr and exclamations, looked over, and a woman was flat on her back on the ground.
I'd have a hard time restraining myself from pointing and laughing. It would be a "go team schadenfraude" moment (along with seeing the following types wipe out: roller bladers who barrel past you with just inches to spare and cyclists who use the sidewalk as a racetrack, and then act like you're a nuisance because your walking on their road). Hate, Hate, HATE Segways!
They see me rollin'
on my Segway....
Jars are you still considering coming to So Cal?
We're definitely considering it. It's our fallback position if DH gets laid off, which is not hugely unlikely as we all just got letters mentioning 'necessary redundancies' in the near future. He's in an okay position though, and I don't think he's top of the list to go, but we'll see.
I'm looking at places I can maybe do a PHd in archaeology down there. I'd have to do a GRE, which I still haven't figured out what it is yet.
The GRE is a standardized test for grad school admittance. You'll do fine.
I ate an excellent burrito for lunch, with pico de gallo and everything! A bit messy but worth it. Yum. The weather is beautiful here for the moment so I took a walk to take advantage.
No news on the Taz front yet. Hope we hear something (good) soon!

We could have a study group! If I decide to go to grad school, that is...
Back from County Clerk's office. Very small line, no protesters, just a handfull of same sex couples - but they all were so happy and there was such a great vibe. My friends had actually gotten their license last night but found a mistake that needed to get fixed. They were so bouncy and happy to share their joy with me, it was cute.
I went to turn in my California Notary journal. Am no longer a notary.

GRE=Graduate Record Exam. It's your standard fill in the circles thing.
The website is here [link]
and they have a test site in Dublin.
Oh, Suzi, that's so cool. YAY for friends so happy and being part of it.
