Heart-attacks and Space Walks

I said good bye again to a dear friend. Andrew headed back to New York Wednesday night. Jay also said good bye quickly after his grandmother passed away that day. I'll see Jay around school sometime, I'm sure. Brandon and I are having the last day luncheon tomorrow at BJ's Brewhouse. I'm having one next week too, so my guys aren't coming along, I don't think. I'll be the last summer intern.... but that gives me a few more days to put in for other co-ops before I'm terminated.

I went to see the space walk today from the MIR room. MIR is neater because it has everyone who is the direct go-to for the project. My guys actually had an issue to solve quickly, because the astronauts were just kind of waiting for a decision. So, I got to see real-live action! I did cop out early, I was getting too tired with too much more stuff to do before I could go to bed. And I have to be at work no later than 8 to make my hours and walk out at 2pm. So I got a heart-attack in a bag on my way home.

My flight leaves tomorrow at 7:35 from IAH. I'll touch down around 11pm. I guess I'm going with the car since Seth couldn't tell me if he had to work Monday or not until later tomorrow. I'm keeping my fingers crossed he doesn't so he can come along! I want to see him so much. Even if he does bring is other friend along.

Betsy got me 2 Matryoshkas while she was in Russia. One is of the more famous Russian Cosmonauts. It's amazingly done! The other is a more common form of one. I haven't taken it apart yet. And Michelle was creeped out by the faces.... I thought it was so cool!

Shit, where has my summer gone!
Now to figure out what's coming home .....

Seth shouldn't leave you hanging like this. He's being a jerk. Imagine that. It's in the air. Josh and I got into it last night. I'll tell you later. ;)
