more lists

hola chicos!

so, i have hit the two weeks to london mark. this meant a panic-induced list making session last night that included people to see, places to go, things to buy, appointments to make, and lots of stuff to do. i won't bore you with the various lists here, but just know that i will be running around for the next two weeks trying to scratch things off the various lists but actually adding to them. *sigh

and yes, i continue updating in london. so keep reading.

my trips in the month of august:
1. to the brothel, aka annie and jessie's house in lawrence: delicious chinese food and champagne to toast the new house. it's straight out of pottery barn: college.
2. to los angeles: i have a killer sunburn, the knowledge that one of my writer friends has a blanket covered in times new roman adjectives that he uses every night (and this knowledge will be used to taunt him for years to come), and i shouted at girls doing a door block "IF YOU CAN HEAR YOURSELF YOU'RE NOT BEING LOUD ENOUGH...THEY NEED TO HEAR YOU DOWN AT PIKE AND TKE!!!!

besitos,
h-ellen

home again, home again

well.
after meeting up with the haun girls in florida and a week in sanibel, i'm finally back in kansas city. and boy is it good to be home.
i think that the thing i always miss the most are all of the people here--sure, oklahoma joes and hi hat are high up on that list too, but it's the old smeast/ku crowd that always pulls me back. right now we're all headed in such different directions (boston, london/oxford, ku), but its so refreshing to know when we all plop back down in kc, be it in lawrence or an apartment or a neighbor's pool, we've got our history and midwest love as a common denominator. and we always have fabulous stories to tell each other.

in other news, my wisdom teeth came out on wednesday, so i've been reduced to a diet of cream of wheat and soup.

upcoming travels:
tim hawk's farm, for an advanced rep. theatre reunion par-tay! aug 11-12
lawrence, to the brothel, as often as i can
los angeles, for recruitment school and general usc-loving, aug 18-21
