Easy as 1,2,3

I need to apologize, because today I feel lazy, so I'm going to write in list form. But you know what? That's convenient, because I think lists are more fun to write AND more fun to read (Emily, I know you agree with me).

Whoever said bigger was better was fairly mistaken. Smaller is better. (Except when it comes to scoops of ice cream or unitards). Anyway, the difference between reading lists and reading non-lists is like the difference between eating kernels of popcorn and eating a popcorn ball. Have you ever tried to eat a popcorn ball? It's awful. I'm rambling again. Commence list now:

1. I am leaving in two days. I'm not freaking out, which freaks me out a little. Problem solved!

2. Still haven't started packing. This worries my parents far more than it worries me.

3. Today my Grandpa and I went golfing. At 88, he still plays better than I do, but he's also wiser. These two things are correlated. Plus it's nice because whenever my putts don't sink, he assures me it's because "there must be a lid on that cup!"

4. Then he bought me a root beer float. Add that to the list of things that are actually better when they're big. Okay, so maybe popcorn is the exception and not the rule.

5. My mom's friend Shirley and her daughter Sara gave me some scratch tickets as a going away present and I won three dollars. I am now addicted to scratch tickets. Thank heavens I'm leaving the country in two days and cannot develop a sad gambling habit. If there's a lottery in England, don't tell me.

6. In my attempts to learn about England, and just see pretty things, today I started watching "Hidden Castles of England" on Netflix Instant. It was hosted by Leonard Nimoy. Yes, Spock from Star Trek. I know what you're thinking, and none of the castles were in space.

That's all for now. I hope everyone had a lovely Monday!
