So when I said I was back, let's see, two months ago, apparently I didn't mean right away.  And, although there is no good defense for why I was away so long, here is what I've been up to since my last update:

May

• Stage Manager for PLU's production of 'Noises Off', one of the best shows I have worked on.
• Capstone presentation about the show I directed in January, 'Snowed In', which determined if I could graduate.
• Finals- egh.
• Graduation!  However, at this point still unsure as to whether the school got my transfer straightened out in time.
• Sasquatch Festival with my buddy Kelsie- we saw Ben Costa, Rodrigo y Gabriella, The Hives and, best of all, Flight of the Conchords!  It was....... awesome.  So worth the sunburn.

June

• Tried finding summer job to help supplement CTI fundraisng.  No luck.  Yay bad economy!
• Reuniteed with an old friend who got a job in Seattle for the summer.
• Be with my family before I leave for a year.
• Helped throw a birthday party for a 6 year old.
• Joined a gym.
• Live with my brother John for a month while he visits (only see him 1-2 times a year).
• Went to the Seattle Art Museum with John and saw an amazing Impressionist exhibit. 
• Learned to make sock monsters- they are awesome.

July

• Spent the 4th with a family I don't really know and had fun.
• The sun finally came out in WA.
• Celebrated Kelsie's getting a job within 5 weeks of graduating.  If only I will be so lucky post-CTI...
• Hired for 2 weeks of house-sitting.  Yay, a little work!
• Still making sock monsters, and getting dang good at it now.
• Still fundraising- about $3,000 left to raise. 

So there you go- a very dry list about the last few months of my life.  Hopefully this won't happen much more since I plan on updating this semi-weekly, but as we all know, I am terrible at keeping up with the blog. 

We'll see what happens come next week....
