various things

The sky looked amazing today when I walked home. Bright summer blue on one side, intense sunset yellow on another, on another dark grey with red and purple hues and lightning bolts, and big pink and golden cloud towers almost above me. Beautiful.
Still no rain here, hopefully soon because the air is too humid.
ETA: Finally!

Work is over! Wednesday was my last day. Thursday and Friday I could practically feel my brain going down a few levels. Overall it was a good experience: the colleagues were nice, about half of the work was very interesting, I learned stuff, and I earned money. But I'm also glad that it's over.

Yesterday two friends and I spent about five hours customizing a "Munchkin" set as a birthday present for LK, with Doctor Who-themed cards among others. I hope he likes it! The birthday party is tomorrow. I was planning to make muffins today, but we don't have the ingredients so I'll have to see how much time I have tomorrow.
(After making the present I felt like a good friend for about an hour, until I remembered how I wished that ER had made less friends in the US because I'm jealous of the time she spends with them. >.<)

My parents came home from their two weeks of vacation, it was nice to see them again. I picked them up at the airport- by car, at night, no problems :) Though I'm glad I persuaded LB to come with me, otherwise it would have been very boring.

I want the hockey season to start again. I miss this stupid sport. Ugh.
(At least PK Subban got a good contract! Good for him and the Habs.)

I met L. again! The girl I went dancing with. (Sometimes I worry that in a few months I won't remember who's behind the initials, but I don't want to use full names because I'm worried my RL friends will find this blog. Not that they couldn't figure out most of the people anyway...) After a bit of confusion I now have her phone number :) We met for ice cream. This probably-wanting-to-date-someone thing is complicated, and I often feel awkward, but I'm pretty sure that's normal.

I have two weeks of vacation coming up! First a week at Attersee with friends from the debating society: the plan is quite chaotic so far, I don't know when or how I'll get there or what we'll do there etc., but I think it'll be fun.
And then choir week! I'm really looking forward to it: I couldn't go last summer, and I really missed it. It's going to be exhausting, I'm a bit afraid of that because I don't know how well I'll cope, but I think it's going to be fine.
The timing of this is a bit unfortunate, I have things to do in Vienna and after working a job I now think I'd be able to make good progress on my thesis, but I hope that'll keep until I get back. (For about a week, then I'll visit my grandparents. Summers are short.)

I should also be finishing my marvel_bang story... I'll probably have to try writing longhand again, let's see how that goes.
