(I've officially been here for 5 weeks— what?!)

Internet, I Love You
(inspired by Ken Nesbitt's 'Homework, I love you'. Middle had to learn a poem to recite in class and she learned Nesbitt's comical gibe at homework.)

Internet, I love you. You're just mighty fine!
I can watch Canadian shows online.
Erica strange, every week, makes a change
to all her regrets (is she sane or deranged?)

Internet, I love you. I think that you're neat.
Keeping in touch is no far-fetched feat.
I think you're the bomb, because when I am gone,
You can help me to talk to my Dad and my mom.

Internet, I love you. You help me consume.
I can buy stuff while laying in bed in my room.
When I order online, it all turns out fine,
And all of my packages get here on time.

Internet, I love you. You help me to write.
With you, my hobby's a perfect delight.
I can write every day, you just publish away,
One and all can read every word that I say!

Yesterday, I got a call from Revenue and Customs! They told me that I could pick up my suitcase finally!!!

So, I drove to the airport today to pick it up! It was excited to unzip my case and root through all my stuff to see what I had packed. Some things I was surprised and happy to see were: my alarm clock/iPod dock, a collection of books (like my giant CS Lewis anthology and my UK Eyewitness Guide), my mocassins and a sewing kit! Although, I hadn't packed my balloons, so I will have to order some tomorrow. Strangely, the thing I was most excited to unpack was my dressing gown (house coat). I am wearing it now. It is white and fuzzy and gorgeously warm. —oh, and my flannel pyjama bottoms with airplanes on them! —oh, and my long-sleeved camp shirts! Yay for unpacking stuff!!!

*yawn* time to turn in! καληνύχτα
