So after staying at Will’s place for a couple of days I arrived home and went to say hi to my mom. If I don’t see her for a day or two we still catch up on the phone. Since our conversations had recently revolved around where I am and what’s for dinner, I was naturally surprised to see her hand all bandaged up.

“What happened to you?”

“Oh, I had minor surgery while you were gone.”

What?! Now there’s something I reckon is definitely worth mentioning. She’s fine and it was just a staph infection in her finger, but still. Silly mom!

I also got a call from uni this morning, turns out I’ve been awarded a certificate of excellence for one of the courses I took last semester. Apparently I was meant to have known about this almost three weeks ago – I did receive the snail mail, but hadn’t opened it until after the call since the “Awards Ceremony for Outstanding Students” header made me figure they just needed crowd-fillers. Whoops.
