My Name and Other Things

I've had numerous of customers at The Grocery Store tell me they've never heard of my name before. Some ask me how I got that name, and I respond that it's from the Bible. Others just comment on the name. When I head back to school, I'm reminded that in my current circle of people, my name is awfully common. First there's my cousin Bethany N., then a Bethany G., a Bethany F., a Bethany B, a Bethany L., a Bethany H., a Bethany P., and three Bethany S. Those are counting the people I know pretty well, not all the other countless Bethany's out there.

Also in other related new, I:

1. Talked to Laura for about five hours on Thursday and then another two or three on Sunday.

2. Read Secret of Chimneys in a twelve hour span, and most of it was in one sitting. Hehe, I love doing that. Agatha Christie is a genius, and Anthony Cade is always enjoyable.

3. Finished the Star Wars series. Not sure if I'll ever watch the new ones again, but I want to own the original and watch them again and again. Highly enjoyable. Also, I want an Ewok and Yoda because of the absolute adorableness of both.

4. Watched more of my tv shows, though I didn't get to finish them.

5. Went to the fabulous Mexican restaurant in town for lunch with RuthAnn and Philip. We missed Joanna greatly, but we still inhaled the chips and salsa plus those fantastic burrito fajitas (which are to die for).

6. Blogged about Ginevra de' Benci. The trip down memory lane was good for me. It was good to think back on those years and how much I've changed.

7. Slept. Never super late because that's not me, but I loved sleeping without having to get up for school.

I think I'm ready to start my last semester of classes in my undergraduate career. I'm ready to finish college.
