what a great year
You might not know this about me, but five is my favorite number. So, I was really excited to start out the year of 2005. I remember last year's party at Kev's lake house when I got to pick the first song I wanted to listen to for the year (I Am a Rock by Simon & Garfunkel). And, not surprisingly, it turned out to be an awesome awesome year. I had my last semester of classes, during which I finished my thesis, took fun classes, had great times with my beautiful friends, drove to Graceland, and then graduated! Graduation weekend, I received an email from my new boss at UVM, would I like to work in Vermont? Of course! I started being an archaeologist in June and continued to have an amazing year. I met so many amazing coworkers, partied and worked hard with them, learned a lot about archaeology, became tan and strong, and then moved on to working inside in the lab!
I can't believe it is already 2006. The holidays were nice, of course, and I guess here we are in January, whaaat?! I was home in NH for a week and now Shawn is here visitng me for another week before he goes to France for the semester. Here are some great plans ahead for OH SIX: visiting Shawn in France, going to the Society for American Archaeology meetings in Puerto Rico in April, and going to California at some point because I've always wanted to and now Liz O is there, so I haveee to, right? Burlington is a great place to visit, too, for all of you who are not here, but would like to come hang out in my guest room.
This year's first song was Bridge Over Troubled Water, again by Simon & Garfunkel. Just, if you need a friend, you know?

Way ahead of you there. I checked out tix to San Fran in April and they're like $400 round trip! I guess that's expensive to me. AND I was thinking that I wanted to go on a vacation with my pals (you) during my spring vacation to hmm, a tropical island or CA :) Just some pie in the sky you know.

I will call you both soon, I have some funny/scary stories about monster children who dress up as real children and come to my school.
