I officially have nothing to do.
My classes ended on Monday and my internship ended today. The guys I work with are so sweet; they made me a thank-you card and gave me some gift certificates. They're hell-bent on getting the firm to hire me on permanently, but we'll see...

I now have an entire summer of nothing stretched out before me, and I'm not looking forward to it at. all. I had last summer off and it SUCKED. I like being busy, and I need adult contact. I wouldn't mind a couple weeks, but I don't need three months off.

:scared:

5. As a matter of fact, we may have a shared "vacation" property there
in the somewhat near future. In Sarasota, I think? MrLaraMN wants to go, if it pans out. He lived in FL for about eight years and would love to go back for a visit.

His Grandma has a house there and she will probably sell it soon-ish. His Dad wants to buy it and let the family use it for vacations.

8. Yes. It will begin as such:
"Econometrics" is the study of Econs with no metrics. Approximately 4,179 Econs die every day in Hungary. This is wrong!..."

15. That's a good idea.
We have a boom in the homeless population this time of year.
