Ups and Downs

Well life is clearly full of both.  Ups like seeing family, discovering new music, watching new movies, making tasty food.  Downs like forgetting important things places, being screwed over by administrative sluggishness, really shooting yourself in the foot (figuratively, but "really" is being used to mean significantly in that sentence).  One step forward, two steps back.  Well at least I'm still alive and hopefully going to be starting school very soon.
