first week back - in class

And the apartment is adorable. We had bamboo blinds put in the front window this afternoon - cuteness prevails upon us all. We still have to find some more lights and get a coffee table, but we're almost to "home" status.

I love living with the McDonald sisters. Roomie dinners are scrumptious (yesterday I made Mom's famous mac and cheese and we've also enjoyed soups, deli worthy sandwiches, etc), and we've had rousing discussions over who is cooler, Leonidas or Hector (Hector by far), who said the famous "then we shall fight in the shade" quote (was it Leonidas or one of his generals?), and whether Hector was blond or dark. Going back to the Iliad it was revealed that he was dark. I won. But when Abby pulled down a copy of Herodotus, she won the "who said it" debate.

We've watched movies, eaten chocolate, washed dishes, and, yes, done homework. Plenty of it. And speaking of, I have more Iliad to read. =)
