Three Roomates Walk Into a Living Room

Rooommate M is deeply upset over work stuff, roommate H is exasperated by protein precipitation, and me? I owe two take-home quizzes, one two-page paper, and one 10 minute class presentation by next Wednesday, but for dinner I bought take-out dumplings, bubble tea, and a fortune: you like competitive sports.

Well, at least the presentation is in draft 0.9 form.

I Demand Spring Break!

Did you know that, if you fly on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, you can get a nonstop IAD* to LAX flight for $207? And that I don't have class on April 8th?

*Dulles is a 20 minute drive from dad's.

So theoretically, I could fly out on the 8th, and take a red-eye home on the 14th, and rent a car so I can personally experience LA traffic, and incidentally see my sister in Irvine and other people in Santa Barbara without Adventures in L. A. Mass Transit.

But this is all highly tentative, as I am still pricing out the damage. Maybe I will get a car part of the time? Maybe I will blow it all off and see what the NC Outer Banks off-season is like? (Beach. I burn with longing to have sand stuck between my toes, but if I'm going off-season, October makes more sense than April.) Or rent a car in the DC metro area and do a road trip through Shenandoah National Park? I want a break, but I don't want to break the bank.

ETA: Forgot the really important question, and now I can't fix the poll: who would be interesting in seeing me?
