vicarzGoodbye. I'm going to try and be mostly invisible until I have a handle on my 20 page paper for what I thought would be an easy summer class. Tonight is a Dollhouse I hate to miss, with a list of Canadian bands I like, Sat is cocktails (well I might hit that briefly) and of course cherrypool, Sunday I like to hike, then the 4th!? In my mind everything is maybe until I have my work done - I can't plan when I can't predict how far I'll be in my work. I just know if I try and stay home I'll get ancy - feeling like I'm missing something. All work and no play.
I think I kicked my cold despite going to work. For once I managed to get sick w/o a sinus infection, minor yay.
In 2.5 hours I have to schedule my fall classes and I have no idea what to register for. The one class I considered mandatory (Dispute resolution) is full with a waiting list. I'm taking a light load based on my expectation that I'll be starting a new difficult job. I'm admittedly biast towards a schedule that has me on campus 2-3 days a week, but for some reason every class seems to be scheduled from 6-8 on MW.
This, and every semester I sit here and wonder why I do this, spending thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours on something I may not ever use directly. I remind myself this is more insurance, more security, more options. I have spent a lot of my life ensuring that doors are open rather than going through them.
Politics: Oh Bush is lying is tail off about the Africa funding!
** The president's budget request for 2006 actually cut malaria funding; he will be able to afford the first year of his new program only because Congress insisted on boosting the number. ** Wash Post

We are Gen X -- which means we get to mutate because we are the children of transition. It is a shame so many of our generation are stupid and shortsighted, but a global catastrophe in 5-15 years will rectify that.

Date: 2005-07-01 02:48 pm (UTC)what a wonderful word, hello.
Hello, hello, hello...
you can hear it wherever you go.
A stranger in a strange place
can't be nearer,
but when you hear
the hello song it's dearer.
Hello, hello, hello...
what a wonderful word - hello!
