wow

So it turns out that having drunk enough "champagne" (not proper Champagne, of course, but sparkling white wine) to get a bit of a buzz on and then walking home in the cool (or cold) night air is remarkably evocative of grad school for me. I mean WOW. Only difference is that in Oxford I normally had further to walk, but the traffic was (a) different and (b) less. Otherwise: the nostalgia is up around 9.5 now, y'all.

(Oh, and one more difference, which is that my apartment is about ten times the size of my student room approx. and I'm not about to sign off and crawl into a twin bed.)

It did! I'm going to claim I covered that with "different", although it is of course difficult to quantify one's own bit of buzz, and the fact that I was able to correct all my typos before posting does not mean that it would have been, for example, safe for me to drive. (Not even close.) Only two glasses, I hasten to point out! But the fizzy stuff goes right to my head. (Not unlike red, red wine, which I was singing as I left. In short: yes, we had fun. :-D I hope you had some of your own! Fun, or champagne, or -- better yet -- both.)
