open up your plans and damn you're free

i'm enjoying that lazy yet slightly desperate kind of free-time.
that free-fall, planning period you come upon every once in a while, the kind where you sit in coffee shops for hours sipping tea and reading novels or travel books.

i am about to move into a new apartment, well, house actually, and with a bunch of med students.
i am about to spend the weekend in new york.
i am about to get a part-time job somewhere.
i am about to begin my second-year of graduate school.
i am about to write abstracts for conferences.

all those delicious abouts, each with so much potential...
