jocelynceeso it's a boring LJ entry. deal.
the tv cameras and reporters are back, everyone's busy busy busy around here, lots to do, lots to talk about. Part of me would really rather not be here, and the rest of me is reminding myself that I have *other* things to concentrate on besides 'what's going on outside my apartment door'.
This fire thing has been upsetting for me, but the effects I feel are nothing compared to what others are going through. I have no right to complain whatsoever.
Therefore, in spite of the drama outside, I have nothing exciting to report.
I got a lot done last night, lesson-planned this morning early, and am trying to do everything necessary tonight. Got a take-home midterm today from Dr. Taleghani (goody GOODY), so I'm seriously NOT regretting my choice to stay home this holiday weekend. I have enough to accomplish, for certain.
One of these moments I'm going to get up the balls to email Dr. Dreessen and find out if I can still turn in my Walther paper. Yes, in Germany. Still not done. Still not begun, actually. I have half a mind to talk to Dr. Keel to see if I can test into it. In fact, I think I have to... but we'll see.
I may have shot myself in the foot here, but right now there's nothing I can do but try to put one foot in front of the other (shot foot), and go with what happens.
If nothing else, they'll have it in the fall, and I'm here in the fall. Probably will want a review of all that anyway.
Oh, and I did go work out today. Apparently I can read 5 pages of single-spaced small-type German literary text in 20 minutes on the elliptical machine.
