What a week!

So after an eventful week, I've come to the conclusion that it is not a good time to be a Dove (and no, I'm not talking about the bird- that's a whole different story). This epiphany came to me after spending the past weekend at my palacial country estate in Moorpark (otherwse known as the house where I grew up in the middle of nowhere). I went home after receiving a phone call from my mother saying that she broke her arm, which as you can imagine definitely freaked me out more than a little. Fortuanetly, it was a clean break, and she's had her surgery and is waiting for her spiffy new cast. The doctors said her bones were very strong and that she should heal relatively quickly. But still, not a good thing. Then the next day, my grandmother tripped on her sidewalk and hurt her knee- not excessivly badly, but this is not something that one of the elderly generation should be doing. And my dad's been sick with a cold, which he lovingly gave to me when I was home. So basically, everyone in my immediate family has an ailment of some sort. I'm thinking of calling my family in England, just to make sure that they haven't caught the plague or mad cow disease because after this weekend, I wouldn't even be surprised. So this has been the excitement of my life, just in time for classes to begin tomorrow, yay. I'm hoping that we got all the bad stuff out early in the year and that it will be smooth sailing until 2006... I guess only time will tell. On a happier note, shout out to Liz and her entrance into the barista lifestyle, congrats! I'm definitely expecting some quality, lovingly made coffee when I'm up in Northern California next weekend :)

Sorry about all the mishaps in your family - tell you mum and grandmum that I hope they get well soon and not to fall down anymore! Wow - only another week and then Patricia will be married!
