A brief reprieve
Oct. 28th, 2008 11:48 pmSo I have astoundingly little work due within the next week, which is nice after the hell that the past couple of weeks have been. It'll give me time to do that story for Tapply that I missed. It'll also give me a bit of time to get ahead a bit before the next wave of ridiculous work, which will be about next week. On the 10th I have two powerpoint presentations on the same day. In French. Both of them. Aiee.
But for right now, I have a little bit of time to breathe and do some of the stuff I need to do that isn't schoolwork, many of which are small but I just haven't been able to get around to doing, like calling my health insurance people and sorting out this financial aid business. I am also absolutely committed to actually watching some of the stuff I have from Netflix so I can send it back already. One disk *will* get watched tomorrow and be in the mail Thursday morning, and nobody and nothing will tempt me away from it. At least one of the others will get watched this weekend. And maybe I will have time to deal with some personal things that really need to get dealt with. Or maybe I will say "fuck all of this" and sit in my room reading Harry Potter, although I would probably regret that when I get busy again and don't have time.
One thing accomplished: I picked my courses for next semester tonight. Unless something gets weird (knock on wood), this was, for once, a fairly straightforward and painless process, and the resulting schedule is all classes in either my major or my minor that I actually want to take and only *one* of them is 200-level. Also, none are before noon. Also, ONE OF THEM IS HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, which I thought I wouldn't be able to take until senior year. Woot.
Haus' Rock Band is broken. Hausmates are all v. upset, but I am glad of the (relative) peace and quiet. And no, I did not break it. Really. Not that I know of, anyway. Unless I sleepwalked and broke it. Which, if I were going to break something in my sleep, that'd totally be it, so I guess I don't know. I don't think I sleepwalk, though. But anyway: Quiets! Hee!
Everything else is much the same. Still kind of sick (what the fuck, body, it's been three weeks!), still ridiculously tired all the time, still feeling all guilty and shit about being hermity and feeling lonely and feeling like I deserve it and blah blah blah emocakes. Still too much of a little old lady to go party in Salem for Halloween. Approaching winter severely chagrining dazzle. Life needs more weightlifting, more movies, more cuddles, either a backrub or a hot tub, and much less Haiti. (Much, MUCH less Haiti. What is with this goddamn hippie school and Haiti, anyway?) I think I can fix two of those if I budget my time right.
*rereads entry*
So basically, it's been a wicked shitty month, but good things have started to crop up in the past 24 hours. Time to focus as much on the second half of that sentence as possible. :)
