Williamsburg - Day 1

I miss Sandie!!! But, I"m making due...

We arrived after a 9 instead of 5 hour drive - traffic was hellish from baltimore down.

Spoke with lots of people (reenactors), found the one I wanted to take home with me, and danced with Henry Playford (son of John Playford) himself!

Of course that brought up the following statement from TC:

Pint of Guiness: $4.95
Acrylic tricorner hat: $14.95
Challenging Playford with his own choreography (cuz I did): Priceless!

Squee!

Today can't be better than yesterday. But, it can still be fun.

Oh, and Williamsburg though close to accurate still needs work in some areas...

like the hammer dulcimer/classical guitar performance - while beautiful - playing gospel and southern songs (She'll be coming around the mountain) is just WRONG!!! It actually ruined the performance for me.

The museums are nice - though they are overflowing with gift shops...that's a bit annoying.

Okay - going back out there now. :) *doesn't open until 9, and is only 3 blocks away.

Later!

swoon

so excuse me as I rant, scream and have a freak out....

Okay, the last exam grade. The one that I was CERTAIN that I got at BEST an 80 on. The one that I missed seeing old co-workers and friends for for MONTHS. The one that kept me up at night. The one that had questions worth 10% of the grade on it, and of course those were the ones that I had no idea. The one I groped blindly around in the dark for........

I GOT A 100!!!!!

I got an A in Poli Sci!


Oh MY GOD!!!!

My final GPA for my 3rd semester is a 3.4.

I can totally handle this!

I have other things that are in my head, but I'll wait until later for that!

OH MY GOD!!!!!
