laughing out loud

So today was a different world compared to yesterday.  I did manage to get my computer back, though they told me to not plug it in to ANYTHING here, and that it would need to be taken in when I get home.  The story of 'Lindsey and the IT guy' grew to such a length that I was told at the end of the day about the girl who was verbally abused and threatened by the IT guy, which was an interesting version of my story.  Anyways, it is fine now, except that I am not anyone's favorite person as we are no longer allowed internet access from our rooms.  Oops. 

Thank you to Samuel, Jim, Mom, and Rod for everything.  You guys have been so supportive and I have laughed SO much!  I must be the luckiest girl in the world- to have friends and family that care so much, even when I am half a world away.  Thank you.

Today we went into London for dinner, and then to The Globe to see 'Measure for Measure.'  I had never seen this Shakespearean piece before, but I very much enjoyed it, especially the last scene.  Matt even decided that it was his favorite play by Shakespeare, which may be a stretch, but glad he's taking an interest. 

Tomorrow we leave for Yorkshire and the moors.  I am giddy like a school-girl!  To read Wuthering Heights and to not know what a moor is takes all the meaning out of it, and most of the desolation.  It should be a great trip.  We will be staying in hostels, a different one each night.  We will do a hike through the moors, visit Bronte sites, and what trip would be complete without another romp through a garden?!  We'll be back Saturday night, so don't expect anything more until then. 

Next weekend is Paris for me, Joanna, Kristen, and Jennifer R.  We are so excited!  We booked our cheap hotel, made a few plans, and now we're working on phrases like, "Where is the restroom?"  The problem with learning these phrases is that we still will not understand any responses that we may receive, but we'll deal with that as we go.  :)
