Inching Forward!

We're supposed to get a foot of snow this weekend, AGAIN. I don't know what's going on with that. I feel like one yr we have no snow, and now it's been slowing non-stop. The state can't really afford to pay DelDOT workers to plow on the weekends/overtime so this should be interesting. I'm going to attempt to make it up to Wallingford before the snow starts, but I doubt that will happen. I like the snow though, reminds me of going to Marquette with Kurt.

Anyway, after coming in to work today, I got an email from the professor I want to work with at NC State, asking me if we could have a phone interview/discussion! This is good news! I would definitely love to work in his lab, he does more applied research, measuring the success of protected areas and conservation practices by looking at wildlife populations, among other things. If I get in here, I'm going to definitely need a new pair of hiking boots. I still feel like Duke is my first choice, but I'm not sure if it's the right thing to do financially :(. I guess we'll just let the chips fall and see if I get in, and what money is offered.

I really really can't wait to live with Kurt. I started looking up some more apartments more closely today, and found one that seems perfect. It'd be right in between Bragg and Raleigh/Durham, and aparently a lot of military families live there too. The same company owns 4 or so apartment communities in the area, and all of them look great. I guess it's just a matter of what one we like the best! HOpefully Kurt will like this one too. I really miss him a lot today, looking up apartments and planning out our lives together makes me feel closer to him.

I realized yesterday that the best way to get motivation to go to the gym, for me, is to pack my work out clothes and go straight from work, so that's the plan for today.
