So today was quite interesting.

I woke up nice and early to get stuff accomplished today, but most of what I intended on doing just got pushed to the side. I went and dropped something off on campus, and on the way there I listened to the Linkin Park/Jay Z album which somehow puts me in one of the best moods. I love it, and I don't exactly know why.

Then I accomplished the difficult task of calling much of my family and talking to them which I've been meaning to do. The hardest part was calling my grandparents house in New Roads and talking to my grandpa about my grandmother who has Alzheimer's Disease and it gets worse everytime I speak to him. I feel so guilty when I don't speak to them for a while, but the truth is that I just can't stand to do it. I know its selfish, but it hurts so much to think of her like that. She was such a strong woman, and to see or speak to her in her current state is hard for our entire family. I think I'm going to take a trip up to the river in a couple of weeks though to visit. Maybe jump off the pier and make an afternoon of it. Who knows, maybe I won't leave the house depressed this time.

After that, Steph and I went apt shopping! Well, less apt shopping and more looking at random places and taking down numbers - most of which turned up fruitless. We had a great time though!

Then came the interesting part of the afternoon. Crawford came over and we talked about exactly what we were feeling and that we need to hang out more. So we did. We hung out for a couple of hours, and it was nice. We studied and got some work done. We had fun, which was something we haven't done together in a long time, I feel. Like I said, it was nice.

I've been studying/watching past dvr'ed Sex and the city episodes for the past 2 hours. The greatest part of the night came when I found a thread about the new James Bond movie Casino Royale which comes out on November 17. Its like half a year away, but Im still pumped beyond belief. I also watched the trailer, and its a bit of a let down, but maybe the actual film will be better. Its just a different style of directing than the previous movies, and maybe I will get used to it, but as for now, I am skeptical. I am still insanely pumped, nonetheless.
