After been awake for 36 hours I'm finally in Hull. More so, I'm fed, bathed and ready to go to bed. Just thought I would let you know I made it safely~

I'm going to be pretty busy after today so this is going to be my last time online for a bit. Flight and all.
My week has been pretty eventful for the most part. I got my ticket print-out on Tuesday and got my hands on some Snickers ice cream (Godly~) on Wednesday. I've also eaten out a little, too. Boston Market has some really good pot pies. As for today, I've been taking it a little easy. I've backed up all my important files on both my external hard drive and my secondary internal hard drive on my laptop. Three copies of my important files should be enough safety, probably~
I'm going to do some laundry tomorrow and pack my bag. On Sunday I'm going to go to Chicago and by Monday ill be in the UK.
Ill probably be back online in a month or two. Basically whenever I can afford a computer over there. Ill probably wind up getting a netbook, which, thankfully, are pretty cheap in the UK. So it shouldn't take too long~
Ill catch you guys later~

One week and counting until I take off for the UK.
I wound up buying a jacket on Thursday. It's black and fits surprisingly well and has very large pockets on the inside. Perfect for bringing books and snacks on board without having to stash 'em in my bag. That also means I won't have to pay those extortionate airline snack prices. (They might as well hold me upside down and give me a shake to see what comes out at those prices.) It's forecast to rain the day I land. The high is also going to be 61f, with a low of 49F. Lovely.
I'm probably not going to be online for a month or two after I land, so this will be my last week on here for a while.

I've got less than two weeks before my flight, meaning I have less than two weeks to pretty myself up for my grand re-introduction into British society. So, feeling that a little color never hurt, I wondered about today looking for a place to work on my tan before it got too hot.
Water bottle in hand, I set off down the road. Along my way I spotted a bunch of houses and took a bunch of turns before, eventually, I came to one of the main roads. However, right next to the road was a secluded wooded area that stretched quite a bit, hidden behind a bunch of houses. I figured "why not?" and set about exploration of this wooded land.
Carefully treading past ant hills and cracks in the earth that could hold deadly, deadly snakes (Well probably not, but still.) I made my way along and into the tree line. After a while I came across a spot that was shielded from almost all angles by fairly dense shrubbery and gave me a good view of anyone who might wander into it. It was the perfect tanning spot (More or less.) So, 2/3rds of my water remaining, I figured I would strip down a tad and get to work.
I stayed there until I felt a little faint/had virtually no water left before wandering back to the Aunt's place. (So, about an hour in 100 degree weather. 1:15 tops.)
I think ill go back there tomorrow and work on it some more. Or ill have a minor sunburn tomorrow and stay inside for the next day or two.

I've been customizing my laptop a whole bunch lately in an attempt to kill time. And, somehow, I managed to make it more efficient. I altered my download settings so all new files go directly to my spacious z:/drive instead of my cramped c:/drive, increasing my download capacity from 3GB to 22GB. Space I will fill with perfectly-legal downloads, naturally. 
I also downloaded RocketDock and several new skins, transforming my 2002 windows XP laptop into the stylish powerhouse you see in the picture below you.
