i.
Grandmommy and Poppa are renting 1035 from Grandma and I'm sitting on the floor in the kitchen playing with the bathroom scale. I think everyone else is at the beach. I don't know why I'm not at the beach, but I'm happy either way.
ii.
Nick's mom went on a mystery train ride (analogous to a mystery spaghetti dinner) and enjoyed it a great deal. "They put you in these little bunk beds! Everyone's wearing period costumes, and you can tell who the villain is because he has a mustachio and eyeliner!"
iii.
In the northwest corner of Georgia there is a series of "lakes" that do not contain water, but rather a transparent orange substance whose chemical formula is known but which has not been given a common name. They support a form of bacteria thought to be very similar to the first life on earth, so our GEOS class is going there on a field trip. We're currently in lab, preparing for the trip. Georgia wedged its way past Florida into the middle of the Gulf of Mexico a few years ago, and Google Earth's view of the volcanic northwestern landscape with its violent orange lakes in contrast to the dark Gulf water is very striking.
In order to drive to Georgia it is necessary to use the Brooklyn Bridge.
