i'm going to california!

though, sadly, i am not going to l.a. boo.

less than 12 hours after the end of my spring semester, i'm on a flight to s.f. it's going to be a short trip (5 days), but i'm going to try to see everyone and their mother while i'm out there. i wish i had time to do this properly, and get down south, but i'm nervous about finding a summer job, and i'm going to be broke again by the time this trip rolls around. (thanks, california franchise tax board, for making my flight possible!)

though i couldn't find any shoes to suit me (sad), i had a very productive day -

* job #1
* bought plane ticket, solidified (some) arrangements with cali girls.
* replaced nasty old lost pizza cutter with shiny, nifty new one.
* prezzie for the boy.
* window-shopped for spring clothing, and bought a new brownish cardigan/sweatshirt to replace my rapidly disintegrating one. it's been a closet staple for about two years now, and i was in a panic about replacing it. the new one isn't quite the same color, but the cut is almost exact, and it was only EIGHT DOLLARS at urban outfitters, 'cause the salesgirl was an idiot and wasted 10 minutes of my time looking up the price, when i told her that there was an identical one on the rack upstairs.
* renewed my auto insurance - changing from l.a. to chicago saved me TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS! if only i'd done it six months ago . . .
* read some bakhtin.

i still have a few hundred dollars from my tax returns. i need to go to the optometrist and the dentist, but i think i'm going to have to wait on the latter - probably too expensive right now, since i have no dental insurance. i would also like some new spring clothes, and perhaps i could balance a little money in cash and a little on my newly paid-off credit cards in order to buy a few nice things.
